Executive director sacrifices her job as business organization regroups

Economy blamed for chamber cuts Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Germiquet job eliminated

South Surrey White Rock Chamber of Commerce no longer has an executive director. Chamber president Jay Fettinger announced the elimination of Cori Lynn Germiquet’s position Thursday, citing recent changes in the economy had forced some difficult and immediate decisions regarding the organization’s operation.

Germiquet’s was just one of the positions eliminated, Fettinger notes in a statement. “In order for the organization to remain sustainable it must make changes to meet the current times,” Fettinger says. “When faced with the challenges associated with an economic downturn, we must take a look at our operations, and make the necessary changes to ensure that our stakeholder’s best interests remain a priority.”

Reached at his office, Fettinger said he did not have time to comment further before Peace Arch News’ holiday deadline Friday afternoon. Board treasurer Doug Robinson told PAN the suggestion to eliminate Germiquet’s position came from the recently hired Germiquet herself, during a special meeting of the board held Tuesday (Oct. 4) evening. “She was the one that said this is what we have to do,” Robinson said. “She led

the discussion. It was not crabby. It was what one would say is a disappointment event. “It’s very sad and very unfortunate because she was doing a crackerjack job.” Germiquet had replaced Doug Hart as executive director on May 16. The chamber board is to meet this week (Oct. 12) to discuss the prospect of Hart returning on a volunteer basis see page 4

Explosions feared as police divert traffic for 16 blocks

Dozens of booby-traps diffused in ‘drug house’ Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Police cleared a 16-block area of South Surrey Thursday afternoon after the discovery of a potentially explosive drug lab in a home on 176 Street. “We have blocked the whole area off because there is a huge potential for fire,” RCMP Cpl. Drew Grainger said at the scene. “We don’t want cars going by and then turning into balls of fire.” A 58-year-old resident of the 2782 176 St.

home was arrested “away from the scene” shortly after noon Oct. 6, and police are considering charges of production of marijuana in connection with evidence of a recently harvested grow-operation. The equipment was “ready to go with another crop that could support several hundred plants,” Grainger said Friday. Other criminal charges may be suggested after “several dozen” booby-traps were found in and around the home, he added. Grainger said the traps were “covertly and

indiscriminately” placed throughout the twostorey home and surrounding property. “What we can say for sure is that they were highly explosive and had potential to have fatal consequences on a person who came across them unknowingly,” Grainger said. “That could include a child running after their dog.” Members of the Lower Mainland District Emergency Response Team were at the scene until about 9 p.m. Thursday. They entered see page 2

White Rock Mayor Catherine Ferguson is moving out of the political fray. In an interview last week, Ferguson told Peace Arch News she would not be seeking re-election as mayor and would be leaving local politics for the conceivable future. Ferguson “I have several other opportuni- leaving politics ties I’m considering,” Ferguson said Wednesday afternoon. A notably relaxed-looking Ferguson said she was looking forward to a change in priorities, but emphasized that she wanted to continue helping others.

Grainger said a search warrant was executed on the home “with an abundance of caution” as part of an ongoing investigation. Hydro and natural gas service was shut down in the area as a precaution; and one residence immediately south of the “fairly sophisticated operation” was evacuated. A man who has lived in the neighbouring home with his mother and father for 18 months told Peace Arch News Friday that he and his parents were allowed to return around 9:30 p.m. He declined to give his name, and said he knew little about his neighbour. Pacific Highway (176 Street) was initially closed to traffic between 16 and 32 avenues; a no-fly zone was also established over the corridor, Grainger said. The highway barricade was reduced to an eight-block stretch (from 32 Avenue south to 24 Avenue) just after 5 p.m. Thursday.

news Ousted councillor says he learned a ‘life lesson’ after judge overturned 2008 election

Coleridge considers comeback attempt Alex Browne Staff Reporter

Controversial former White Rock councillor James Coleridge – whose re-election to council in 2008 was overturned by B.C.’s Supreme Court – says he is a hair away from filing nomination papers for the upcoming civic election in November. While Coleridge told Peace Arch News Thursday that he was “thrilled” to be contemplating another run at a council seat, he said the matter was still “on the table for discussion with my family.” While he has taken out the papers, he said, he has yet to drop them off at city hall,

because a decision to run is contingent on his top priority, his wife Anna, their son Jet, 2½, and daughter Eden, who just turned one. Also a factor is that he is very busy with their Vancouver business, Bella Gelateria, which, he said, has been “wildly successful.” Coleridge acknowledged that, should he decide to run, there are some people not likely to forget – or forgive – that he was removed from office. But he said he has also heard from many residents over the last three years who have expressed support or sought his help on various issues. The court found that Coleridge – first elected in 1983 – had lied to taxpayers when

Pedestrians on mend

Victims expected to recover Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

The mother of a former White Rock councillor was one of two pedestrians injured by debris in a horrific crash in South Surrey last week. Stewart Peddemors said Thursday his mom, Ada Peddemors, suffered broken bones – including her ankle – in the Oct. 4 incident, and needed stitches to repair a gash in her head. She and a friend – whom he didn’t identify – were out for a walk that morning when debris from a truck that was clipped in the intersection of 24 Avenue and 148 Street hit them as they crossed southbound. Both seniors were knocked off their feet; Peddemors was hit by the pickup’s bed liner, her friend was hit by its canopy. “She’s in the hospital for a few more days yet,” Stewart Peddemors said of his mom, noting surgery to repair her ankle took about two hours. “Her ankle had to be put back together, and she had a broken bone in her leg as well,” he said. “The ankle will never be the same.” Police are considering charges against the driver of a Nissan Versa in connection with the crash, after witnesses reported it happened when an eastbound driver ran a red light at the intersection of 148 Street around 9:30 a.m. After hitting the northbound truck, the badly damaged Nissan bounced off of a westbound Mazda before coming to rest about 50 feet east of the intersection, witnesses said. Peddemors said his mom’s friend, who was airlifted to hospital from nearby South Surrey Athletic Park, suffered a broken jaw and a broken leg, but is also expected to recover. He is grateful to a young woman who went out of her way to locate him and advise him what had happened. That, he said, “is the greater story than the actual accident itself… the people that make this community a better place to live.”

Family donates meaningful mural to Elgin Park Secondary

Vision of freedom shared on campus Sarah Massah Black Press

A South Surrey family thanked Elgin Park Secondary by donating $25,000 to be used to commission a mural at the school. Jeff Gudewill and his family donated the hefty sum as a way to show their appreciation to the people who have given support and help to daughter Jennifer, who is wheelchairbound and non-verbal. “The school system has been so good to us over so many years, especially the staff. We have been receiving for some time and it was time to give back,” said Gudewill about the mural, which was unveiled by artist Dean Lauzé on Sept. 22. “We were fortunate to be in a position to do so, so we did.” In 2010, Jennifer was given more time to graduate so she could keep up with her classmates, said school principal Kevin DeBoice. “We gave her the extra year so she could

graduate normally,” DeBoice said. Earlier this year, Gudewill approached DeBoice about the donation, and the principal suggested taking the funds and putting a mural up to create a sense of community at the school. The mural depicts an underwater ocean scene with three orcas – and one notable addition. “We have a girl holding onto the fin of the baby orca, and that girl is Jennifer,” DeBoice said. “For them, it’s kind of neat because their daughter is free.” Gudewill said his daughter was ecstatic about the mural. “She was pretty thrilled because she was very passionate about the school and was sorry to leave, but now there is something that will last,” said Gudewill. Jennifer also has a passion for creating art,

which includes abstract pieces, hand-sketched still lifes and detailed drawings. She has created an extensive art collection all without the use of her arms. The 20-year-old lost her mobility due to Chronic Relapsing Demyelinctive Polyneuropathy – a degenerative disease. Gudewill uses a laptop attached to her wheelchair to create her art. A reflective dot on her forehead controls the mouse that is mounted on the top of her computer monitor and by moving her head, she can direct the mouse on her screen. Jennifer also used the technology to communicate by typing. She is currently studying art at Trinity Western University. – with files from Tracy Holmes

Baldwin first to seek mayoralty Wayne Baldwin, former White Rock city administrator, has announced he will run for mayor in the upcoming municipal election Nov. 19. Baldwin said he had originally planned to run as a councillor, until he learned that Mayor Catherine Ferguson was not running for another term. “Her surprise announcement changed the ballgame,” he told Peace Arch News Friday. “I thought she was good for another term as mayor, and

needed a council she could work with. This changes the field and the dynamics.” Baldwin had announced in August that he was one of the organizers of a new electoral group which would include former councillor Cliff Annable and Brad Forster, husband of former mayor Judy Forster. It was later announced that they would seek election as independent candidates. Baldwin said he is running because he has “ever increasing

concerns about the viability of White Rock and I see a lot of decisions being made that would take away from that viability,” he said. By Friday, three people had filed papers for a seat on White Rock city council – Brad Forster, Larry Robinson and Bruce McWilliam. One person, Laurae McNally, has filed for the seat of school trustee. No one had filed mayoral papers. – Alex Browne & Tracy Holmes

Don’t focus on small stuff: Ferguson from page 1 charitable organizations, rotary and chamber of commerce membership. Before entering politics herself, Ferguson fought her way back from catastrophic injuries sustained when she was hit by a drunk driver, including more than a decade of therapy and corrective surgeries. She added that in deciding not to run, she was not endorsing any candidate “at this point.” Ferguson – who was first elected as a councillor in 2005, and who was frequently embroiled in philosophical and procedural battles with Citizens For Positive Renewal councillors since winning the mayor’s seat in 2008 – declined to comment on the

political turmoil she has faced. But she said “no one thing” had decided her not to seek the office again. “I’ve put a lot of thought into it,” she said. “I care deeply about the community and will continue to do so and contribute in ways that I can.” Ferguson said she offered good wishes to the new council to be elected in November’s election, “whoever that will be,” but also urged them to take a position of “being visionary, not being caught up in the small stuff.” “We have a great city filled with endless opportunity,” she said. “I hope and wish that the foundation that has been put in place will continue and that the new council will really leverage our

assets to create opportunity for business and the city that White Rock can be.” Ferguson also said she had enjoyed being mayor of such a close-knit community. “The people that make up this city – it’s really such a pleasure to serve them,” she said. “I believe everyone who is in business or is a resident here wants this city to prosper. To come into a local store or business and see someone there, and have them ask how something affected them – that’s not something you get in a big city. “To have the support of so many businesses and residents in the city has been humbling for me, and I will be forever grateful for that support.”

Thumb injury gets $136,542 A man whose thumb was broken three years ago when his bicycle was struck by a car in South Surrey has been awarded $136,542.25. The judgment in favour of 20-year-old Teodor Dobre was made Oct. 4 in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster. According to court documents, Dobre was injured as he cycled across Martin Drive in the crosswalk at Southmere Crescent July 14, 2008, when a westbound Toyota Matrix hit the rear wheel of his bike. Justice N. Brown noted Dobre testified he looked both ways and activated the pedestrian-crossing lights before venturing off the curb. The defendant – identified as Leanne Langley – testified she never saw any warning lights, and didn’t see Dobre until after the impact. Brown found Dobre 15 per cent liable for the incident, which left him with a permanent disability. Brown reduced the award to $116,060.91 – to reflect that responsibility. – Tracy Holmes

to everything he was signing. He said he finds it highly frustrating that Hunt inked the deal when there was a full meeting of council the following day. “That’s really disappointing,” Bose said. “I never signed anything without knowing what I was signing.” Coun. Linda Hepner last month said that if a vote were held today on the project, she wouldn’t support it. Bose challenged his colleagues last week to take action on the issue. He moved that Surrey “serve notice” to the BC Lottery Corporation to withdraw from the Host Financial Assistance Agreement with respect to the Boardwalk Gaming casino agreement. Council referred the matter to the city’s legal department. “I’m taking the position that this is matter of public interest, and I’m fighting to have the whole thing rescinded,” Bose said Tuesday. “This is between Surrey and the lottery corporation.” Coun. Barinder Rasode was happy to see Bose’s motion. Now that gaming funds have dried up, she says the feelings in the community are overwhelmingly opposed to the casino. “Everybody is very clear that we don’t need to have this gaming facility in the heart of Newton.”

Governments should get back to bargaining

he shape of policing in B.C. is in much doubt, following revelations that the federal government and B.C. government are at odds over the next RCMP contract. While the federal government apparently has set a Nov. 30 deadline for the province to sign a 20-year contract, Heritage Minister James Moore was downplaying that deadline recently. He indicated that the two sides should be able to come up with something both can agree on. Provincial Solicitor General Shirley Bond revealed the deadlock when she spoke to municipal officials at their annual convention last month. Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender, who is on the provincial negotiating team, also stated there was a serious gulf between the two sides. Cooler heads need to prevail. The RCMP need B.C. just as much as B.C. needs the RCMP. There are 6,000 Mounties working here – the most of any Canadian province. If their contract isn’t renewed, many of them will be out of a job. B.C. is right to insist on greater accountability for the RCMP. The public has demanded this since the death of Robert Dziekanski at the Vancouver aiport. While a civilian oversight agency is being set up, the RCMP themselves must be more accountable to the province. Municipalities also have grave concerns about budget implications. There is a good chance that the RCMP will become unionized, and that employee costs will rise sharply. Even if wages stay the same, there could be significant overtime bills. Municipal budgets can’t handle large, unexpected costs such as this and some assurance about how much costs will rise in the future is crucial. The federal government, which has the most tax authority in the country, should be willing to accept a one or two per cent annual cap on additional costs to be borne by the province and municipalities, and absorb anything above that. It has far more ability to absorb those costs than local governments, which are dependent on property tax, do. Such a clause would also prompt Ottawa to be much more rigourous in managing RCMP expenditures. The two sides need to get back to the bargaining table and bargain in good faith. At the same time, the province and municipalities need to have a Plan B fully in place, in case no deal can be reached.

83 responding of timely consequences for first-time offenders. Don’t take it from me on the state of our courts. Gov. Gen. David Johnston, a law professor before being appointed the Queen’s representative in Canada, gave a speech in August in which he ripped lawyers for violating their social contract with the public with unacceptable delays. “We enjoy a monopoly to practise law,” Johnston told the Canadian Bar Association’s annual meeting. “In return, we are duty-bound to serve our clients competently, to improve justice and to continuously create the good. That’s the deal.” As usual, the political debate is nearly sterile. The NDP wants more judges, prosecutors, sheriffs and courthouses. Pour more money in, just like the school and health systems, says the party that hasn’t had a new idea in 30 years. Bond did propose a new idea last week. Probation orders with conditions will soon be available for those charged with public drunkenness under the Liquor Control and Licensing Act rather than the Criminal Code. But they would still have to go to court. Perhaps the government could take a cue from their recent revision of impaired driving laws, giving police the ability to assess fines and impound vehicles on the spot. Perhaps by the time the next big drunken riot starts to brew, cops would actually be able to offer consequences. Going around the court system is their best bet these days.

We focus on all our parents Editor: Re: Course promotes respect, fun, Sept. 13. Many thanks to Peace Arch News for updating the readers about Semiahmoo Minor Hockey’s recently launched Respect in Sport program. The opening comments about the program perhaps were misleading, as these comments portrayed the program as something we were launching for problematic parents. The intent of the program is, in fact, quite the opposite. The Respect in Sport program is committed to creating a positive hockey experience for all parents and players. We are very proud to be the first minor sport association in B.C. to adopt the program. In the coming years, all parents of players in their final year of initiation hockey will be required to complete the course. Respect in Sport is designed to: • Reinforce a parent’s role in a child’s activities by encouraging positive sport behaviours, • Empower parents to ensure the safety of their children, • Encourage positive and effective communication; and • Enhance a child’s fun and camaraderie of the activity. Semiahmoo Minor Hockey believes the hockey experience should be built on a foundation of respect for all involved. Respect in Sport helps us promote these values through a simple online tool. What are the benefits for a parent? It will make you more confident in identifying if your child has been involved in any way with abuse, neglect, bullying and harassment. It will help you identify if your own behaviour is potentially inhibiting your child’s development. It will give you a framework of acceptable communication with children, parents, coaches and officials. Respect in Sport for Parents is transferable to all youth sports and programs, not just ice hockey We appreciate PAN providing the visibility to this program and are grateful to our partners at Canadian Tire who are picking up costs associated with this program. Ian Maguire, Semiahmoo Minor Hockey Association

High time to give us power Editor: Re: B.C. needs fairer representation, Sept. 22 editorial. It is indeed important to make the citizens aware of the misrepresentation in the House of Commons as at present. Western Canada is far behind, because of the 1867 decisions, time before the west joined the Confederation, causing the idea of entitlement by Central and Eastern Canada, particular Quebec. If the nation would have a referendum on the matter, all east of the Manitoba border would lose

enough seats to fill with western members of Parliament, causing no need to increase the number of seats, which would cost the taxpayer millions. Reference was made to the Charlottetown referendum, to which B.C. said, with 72 per cent, ‘no.’ Now look over your shoulder at some of the issues we have been ordered to accept, regardless the ‘no’ – distinct society; native self government; Quebec a state. All those are not recognized by the Constitution, as we only support federal, provincial and municipal governments. Public opinion means little in Ottawa after an election, no matter if we voted for the members. So what will Minister Peter Van Loan decide after he receives the results of the 2011 Census, showing that power – population – has moved to the west? Suan H. Booiman, White Rock

At least some can afford tax Editor: Re: New push to add recyling deposits to milk containers, Sept. 22. A new tax, on a food item no less. Supported by sky-is-falling warnings of collapsing recycle depots, evil lobbyists opposing taxes, environmental Armageddon and dubious statistics, another tax is spawned by Metro mayors. My milk containers go in a blue box with other recycling stuff and is picked up weekly. I don’t drive them to a recycle depot and no deposit is involved. No reason at all why Metro Vancouver can’t do the same. Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan says deposit taxes don’t hurt families. It must be all those other

taxes. Guessing an average family uses four jugs of milk a week, this will cost $52 a year extra for food. At poverty level of $25,000 before income tax, this is disastrous. Above poverty are working poor who live paycheque to paycheque. Corrigan’s family should be OK. He earns $114,172 plus expenses, and 30 per cent is non-taxable, ’cause he’s a municipal politician. Added to his base pay are incomes for sitting on government boards, etc. Metro mayors expect us to cut back for new taxes, yet they refused to reduce spending by one per cent, and instead increased gas taxes. They are now fighting a B.C. government plan to create municipal auditors to identify inefficiencies. Metro and taxpayers are like a couple going bankrupt, where one says “I’m not spending too much, you’re just not earning enough.” J. Edwards, Surrey

Increased development in White Rock – including a third highrise being built in the city – gets mixed views.

Speak out for the future of our city Editor: Re: Building heights ‘key to city’s viability,’ Sept. 22. I was happy to see the height article on the front page. This is an important issue that needs to be revisited. As a business owner on Johnston Road for the past 15 years, I agree with Mayor Catherine Ferguson that consultant Jay Wollenberg’s report shows no surprise on the necessity of height and density. Twenty years ago, the uptown business community was relatively vibrant with many little shop owners. I still remember going to Parker Stationary for my office supplies. It was nice. Then, the big-box developments came in and the little guys in town got pushed out. Frankly, if it weren’t for the previous councils’ bold decisions on growth and change, the only thing missing from Johnston Road would have been the tumbleweeds. I have been very impressed with the changes since the Bosa towers went up. I am also excited as I see the Avra tower being built. I must say, I am a bit surprised at Coun. Lynne Sinclair’s naive comment that the Bosa development did not have an impact on economic growth. Like Wollenberg says, it creates a playing field, and the field I have experienced thus far is an increased vibrancy uptown. Many more people are walking around, shopping, eating, drinking and looking for services. I had two people in the same week stop me on the street to ask if there was a good seamstress in town. I happily recommended them to a local woman’s longtime business; I bet it had an impact on her, Lynne. Anyway, council, be bold and think long-term. We need density for vibrancy and to continue to stay alive as a city. And for you voters – if a candidate in the

next election doesn’t stand for growth and change, do not put an X by their name. Dr. Jennifer Montgomery, White Rock Q So Jay Wollenberg, of Coriolis Consulting Corp., has presented an unbiased opinion on White Rock building heights, as stated by Mayor Catherine Ferguson, who notes Wollenberg has “no vested interest.” Should we, as a community, consider destroying many residents’ views of the ocean so that more money can come into White Rock in future building developments? How high does Wollenberg propose we get? I think this issue has come up about umpteen-million times before in our beautiful neighbourhoods, and it will no doubt rear its ugly head over and over again. And someday, hopefully long after I am gone, we will cede to the will of these “unbiased” folk, who see the potential for profit, if we decide to sell our values in exchange for possible financial gain sometime in the future. Thank goodness we’re not there yet; White Rock can still afford to choose what we wish to look like and look at, and our views are free for those who can see them. I hope Wollenberg and the Coriolis Consulting Corp. realize their business speculations are interesting but, at this time, largely unwelcome here. Mayor Catherine Ferguson is a savvy, confident leader, and she, unlike many, is able to listen to her constituents before making changes that affect us all. Is anyone else interested in keeping our building heights at their current maximum? If so, make sure to voice your opinion. N. Springer, White Rock

Slain teen’s ex-boyfriend charged with assault Kevin Diakiw Black Press

The former boyfriend of Maple Batalia has been charged with assaulting her a few days before she was murdered. Batalia, a 19-yearold Simon Fraser University student, was shot several times on Sept. 28 at the Central City parkade near the university.

Her former boyfriend, Gurjinder (Gary) Dhaliwal, turned himself in on Monday to face charges for allegedly assaulting two people at Tim Hortons at 96 Avenue and King George Boulevard on Sept. 24 One of those allegedly attacked was Batalia, who changed her Facebook status to “single” the following

day. The other person, a 19-year-old male, cannot be identified by a court order. None of the allegations have been proven in court. CTV News is reporting two vehicles were towed from Dhaliwal’s residence Wednesday, the same day he was arrested and then released after administrators

While police would not confirm the identity of the man they arrested in the school case, they said the suspect was easy to find because he identified himself in the call.

Kent Street Activity Centre members with designs on beefing up the facility’s kitchen and tea room received good news Oct. 3, when the City of White Rock approved a $25,000 grant to get the ball rolling. Council gave the request for the New Horizons for Seniors Program grant unanimous support. It will fund a dishwasher, along with professional plans and drawings for improvements to the kitchen layout and an expansion of the tea room. According to a report by the city’s acting director of leisure services, Sylvia Yee, the kitchen changes are to improve the area’s efficiency for volunteers; the tea room needs space for more patrons; and, the existing dishwasher is nearing the end of its useful life. More than half of the grant money ($15,000) is slated for the new dishwasher/sterilizer. The designs will provide the centre’s fundraising arm, the Kent Street Seniors’ Society, with a revised target to aim for. Yee notes an assessment completed in 2006 estimated the work would cost $459,200, and that in 2010, council included the project in its fiveyear financial plan. A 2012 target date was set, with funding of $59,200 to come from the city.

victim-impact statement. One month before the beating, Willock and another man, Fraser Sutherland, were fired on as they were leaving a Surrey nightclub. The late-night attack happened about a block away from the T-Barz club on East Whalley Ring Road and 104 Avenue, when the Range Rover Sutherland was driving and Willock was a passenger in was struck by several bullets. A few weeks later, police announced charges of attempted murder against UN gangsters and associates Barzan Tilli-Cholli, Aram Ali and Karwan Saed for the shooting. A few days after that, Willock was attacked.

A Langley man who refused to testify against the sledgehammerwielding attacker who crippled him for life has been sent to jail for two firearms violations. Tyler Willock was sentenced last month to 14 months by a Surrey Provincial Court judge for one count of “occupying a vehicle in which there is a firearm” and one count of “careless use of a firearm.” The 30-year-old Willock was originally facing six weaponsrelated charges over a Langley incident that occurred July 21, 2008.

Charges of possessing a restricted weapons, two counts of possessing prohibited ammunition and owning a weapon without a licence were dropped. Two months ago, Albert Jacob Jackman was sentenced to 10 years for aggravated assault and five years for unlawful confinement in the March 2009 attack that broke practically every major bone in Willock’s body. The beating splattered the walls and furniture of Willock’s Langley bedroom with blood. He has not fully recovered from his injuries, court documents show.

Paddlers prove there is life after breast cancer

Hope on the water Boaz Joseph

Black Press

lisabeth Villeneuve was recuperating at home from breast-cancer surgery in 1997 when she saw a TV clip from a dragon boat regatta that took place in Vancouver. The clip was from an event recorded the previous year on June 21, the date of the inaugural race for Abreast In A Boat, the world’s first dragon-boat paddling club for breast-cancer survivors. June 21, 1996 was also the date when Villeneuve, at age 44, was diagnosed with the disease. Nine months later, the Surrey woman was wearing a pink lifejacket and on the water at False Creek, paddling in unison with others who would become friends for life. Sharing their stories brought these women together for a common cause – to encourage those living with breast cancer to live full and Patricia Tanaka active lives. Breast cancer “hangs society president over your head,” explains Villeneuve, now 59. “But we don’t dwell on the negative. We tell jokes that other people can’t.” The focus is on fun rather than on breast cancer. Villeneuve prefers paddling on the right side of the 20-crew boat, in which racers face forward, unlike competitive rowing. The crew sits in two rows abreast in the boat – hence the group’s moniker. Paddlers are joined by a drummer at the bow and steerer at the stern, with the coach usually on a nearby motorboat with a loudspeaker during training. What would become Abreast In A Boat actually started as a medical experiment,

Up until that time, doctors – citing health concerns – advised breast-cancer patients to avoid vigorous, repetitive upper-body exercise. But Dr. Don McKenzie, a sports medicine physician at the UBC, put volunteers on the water to put the myth to the test. “Our findings are all anecdotal but nevertheless compelling,” he later

wrote. “The paddlers showed a marked improvement in both physical and mental health. We did not see the cases of lymphedema we had been warned about. In terms of impact on patients’ lives, it has been the most significant experience in my professional career.” The non-profit society was launched the following year, and now has six separate crews throughout the region, with about

While she heard mention of Abreast In A Boat at a mastectomy shop years ago, it wasn’t until recently, at the age of 66 – 14 years after her cancer diagnosis – that she was persuaded to try it by a friend at the gym. “I love it,” she says. “I’m sad the season is over. I can’t wait for next year.” During this past season (March to July), while training twice a week out of Deas Slough in Lander, Lane participated in four regattas. “We’re really pleased with ourselves, but we worked hard to get there.” Lane says she didn’t realize until the season was over how much she cherished the bonding and camaraderie of her crew mates. see page 12

‘It’s a floating support group’ from page 11 While there are newcomers with each season, several Abreast in a Boat paddlers today were in the original 1996 crew. Three of them – Esther Matsubuchi, Coro Mohr and Deb Middleton – will take part in a major international regatta in Malaysia later this month. The International Dragon Boat Festival Cancer Survivors World Cup 2011 will take place Oct. 22-23 at Putrajaya, about 25 kilometres south of Kuala Lumpur. The cancer survivors’ regatta (for different types of cancer) will be under the umbrella of a larger race, the Malaysia International Dragon Boat Festival. There will be about 10 teams racing for the breast cancer cup, with Abreast In A Boat the sole Canadian team. Villeneuve is one of two women from Surrey heading to Malaysia. The other is Neoma Quintin, who has just finished her second full season of rowing. Diagnosed three years ago at 34, Quintin considers herself a seasoned regatta veteran – having participated in each of the three regular-season races. This will be her first international regatta. Quintin says training was initially tough, but the hard work has paid off, improving her health and spirit, she’s excited about the upcoming race. “It’s a neat feeling. It showed me that I could do physical stuff.” Newton’s Lois Felkar remembers seeing a photo of an Abreast In A Boat crew in the office of a colleague at Fraser Health years ago.

“I put that in my memory bank,” she says, after talking to the breast cancer survivor. Diagnosed herself in 2006 at the age of 52, Felkar went back to her colleague’s office and told her: “I’m going to make it. I’m going to paddle on that crew.” Her breast cancer was particularly aggressive, and brought with it six months of chemotherapy (with rounds every two weeks) and 30 radiation treatments. With each visit, she recalled the picture of the boat crew. “That image is what kept me going through all of it.” The treatments left her in poor shape; loss of balance meant she had to learn to walk again. Six months after receiving the allclear, she signed up with Abreast In A Boat in late 2007 and began paddling the following spring. Felkar has just finished her fourth season of paddling. She describes her crew as kind and patient, where every individual is considered a blessing. “It’s a floating support group,” she says. “There’s no feeling in the world like walking onto the dock with the salt air and the wind. It just makes your spirits soar.” Honouring tradition, fuchsia or pink-coloured flowers will be thrown into the water at the end of the October regatta to remember and honour those women who have passed away from breast cancer and those who are still fighting.

lifestyles Ocean Park woman’s legacy lives on through fundraiser

Battling breast cancer with nice cup of tea Sarah Massah

Black Press

hree Semiahmoo Peninsula women used the healing power of tea last Wednesday to raise $1,200 for breast cancer research with their first-ever Pink Ribbon Tea. Vanessa Goad, Larae Ravenstein and Larae’s mother, Sheila Peterson, organized the event and held it at Sheila’s home in honour of their longtime friend’s mother, who died from breast cancer. Alex Willis – a former Ocean Park resident now living in England – lost her mother, Joey Holt, last November from breast cancer. Prior to her death, Holt had come up with the idea to host a tea to raise funds for cancer research in conjunction with the CIBC Run for The Cure, which takes place every October. “Because of her illness, she was unable to participate in physical activities like the run, so she created a new way to get involved,” Goad told Peace Arch News. Unfortunately, Holt died before being able to host her own party, so family and friends took it upon themselves to host the teas and make them a tradition. On Oct. 2, Holt’s husband, Gerald, held a tea in her honour, and the next day, Willis organized one in England.

Sarah Massah photo

Larae Ravenstein, Vanessa Goad and Sheila Peterson at their first annual Pink Ribbon Tea Wednesday. “She would have liked to host the first tea, but that wasn’t meant to be,” Gerald said after the event. “But it’s wonderful, this idea of

hers is being taken up by so many people.” Gerald said he plans to make the tea an annual event to keep his

wife’s idea alive. Since October, there have been Pink Ribbon Teas held in Langley, West Vancouver and even Canmore, Alta.

Ravenstein said that this is a tradition that the community has embraced and they plan on making their tea a tradition, as well. “We are hoping to have one every year, we have received so much support and feedback,” she said. Their event included raffle tickets for prizes donated by local businesses, pastries, food and, of course, tea. People who want to host their own tea can register online www. pinkribbontea.com, which also provides recipes for traditional tea pastries. All the money raised will be donated to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. Holt’s former workplace, the Fairmount Hotel, will be hosting a Pink Ribbon Tea every day in October with partial proceeds going to breast cancer research. In 2007, more than 2,800 women were diagnosed with breast cancer in B.C. according to the BC Cancer Agency. According to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation, to increase chances of successful treatment women should regularly have breast screenings. Two common methods of breast screening are clinical breast examinations and a screening mammography.

Auditor blasts farm inaction The commission is seeking increased funding for several initiatives. The future foodgrowing productivity of the ALR continues to be damaged by illegal activity such as the dumping of construction material and tainted fill on farmland. The Lower Mainland has lost eight per cent of its ALR land since the reserve was created in 1973.

Jeff Nagel Black Press

Little to no action has been taken in the year since B.C.’s Auditor General red-flagged a series of big holes in the Agricultural Land Commission’s ability to protect farmland. Auditor General John Doyle’s original report in the fall of 2010 contained nine recommendations, some of them urging the ALC to fix inaccurate maps of Agricultural Land Reserve boundaries and tighten enforcement against those who degrade farmland. The commission’s budget has been cut 30 per cent since 2002 and the audit had found the agency is underfunded and understaffed to carry out much of its duties. But in a new follow-up report, Doyle scolds the inaction over the past year. Nothing has been done with five recommendations and the rest are only partly implemented. “I am disappointed that the ALC has made negligible progress,” he said in the report. The ALC tabled a new strategic vision for the future last November but the proposed new directions are stalled in Victoria because the

recommendations, Doyle’s report says the ALC is “awaiting direction from government.”

Broadcast riot trials: premier ceedings. Bond said she has signed an order directing them to seek permission to broadcast, with charges expected to be laid this month against dozens of suspects. Radio and TV are only allowed in courts with the permission of the trial judge, and even if that is granted, coverage is restricted by a long list of rules. They include a broadcast delay until at least two hours after the court session has ended, and the ability of “any witness, counsel or other participant in the proceedings who objects to being identified pictorially or by voice” to avoid being recorded. Bond rejected the suggestion that broadcasting riot cases is designed to shame the participants. “I don’t think it’s about public shaming at all,” Bond said. “I think it’s about an event that impacted all of British Columbia

Tom Fletcher Black Press

VICTORIA – Attorney General Shirley Bond has ordered Crown prosecutors to ask judges to allow TV and radio coverage of court proceedings for those accused of participating in the Stanley Cup riot in June. The vow was made in the throne speech last week, and Premier Christy Clark elaborated on it in a news conference after the speech. “When it comes to the Stanley Cup riots, those guys had no problem doing their crimes quite in public, with all kinds of people taking pictures and doing videos all around them, so I think they should have no problem being tried in public either,” Clark said. A spokesman for the Criminal Justice Branch initially said Crown prosecutors are opposed to broadcasting criminal pro-

and beyond. And I think there is a public interest in ensuring that this is a transparent, open process.” NDP justice critic Leonard Krog said the government’s call for televised prosecution is a gimmick to divert public attention from the overburdened court system, which has seen more serious cases than drunken vandalism dismissed due to delays. “I don’t suspect that judges are going to be interested in having cameras in courtrooms to deal with what are often minor offences,” Krog said. He also criticized the proposal in last week’s throne speech to deal with backlogged courts by allowing retired judges to come back and work part-time. Trials are often adjourned for weeks or months due to availability of witnesses or other delays, and a part-time judge may not be available when needed, he said.

604-542-5344 CHANGES TO THE POWER OF ATTORNEY ACT How will the new law affect you? On September 1, 2011, the government brought into force signiÀcant amendments to our province’s incapacity planning legislation. As part of these amendments, the Power of Attorney Act was signiÀcantly expanded, growing from 9 sections to 42. Most of the changes serve to clarify and strengthen the use of enduring Powers of Attorney (“EPOA”) as the legal document of choice for persons wishing to plan for the management of their Ànancial affairs in the event of incapacity. EPOAs made prior to September 1st are grandfathered under the new legislation and will remain valid. Attorneys acting under EPOAs made prior to September 1st will, however, still be affected by the changes. For example, the new Act sets out various powers and duties that apply to all attorneys, regardless of when the attorney was appointed. Some of the new duties imposed on attorneys include: • Attorneys must keep and produce Ànancial records, including a list of assets and liabilities, invoices and bank statements, and other records required to provide a full accounting of receipts and disbursement, and income and capital. • Attorneys must not gift, sell or otherwise dispose of property that is the subject of a speciÀc gift in the adult’s Will, unless disposition of the property is required to meet the attorney’s duties. • Attorneys must keep the adult’s money and other property separate from their own, unless the property was held jointly before the EPOA was made. Some of the new powers that attorneys now have include: • a default power to make gifts, loans or charitable donations out of the adult’s property so long as certain conditions are met. • power to designate a beneÀciary (e.g. in the adult’s life insurance policies and RRSPs) if the court authorizes the change, or if the designating instrument is replacing a similar instrument and the same beneÀciary is designated. Alternately, if the attorney is not “replacing” a previous designation, the attorney may make a new designation to the adult’s estate. Changes that apply to EPOAs made after September 1st include new execution requirements, and a statutory capacity test that must be met by the adult granting the EPOA. For the protection of both the adult and the attorney, it is more important than ever that attorneys educate themselves as to the legal requirements of their role. An attorney is accountable to the adult, and may also be asked to account to the Public Guardian and Trustee, who has a role in investigating complaints of abuse of adults who are incapable. For more information on how the recent legislative changes may affect you, or on Powers of Attorney in general, contact Kim Karras or Kirsten Wharton at BRAWN KARRAS & SANDERSON 604-542-5344 or by email at kakarras@bkslaw.com or kwharton@bkslaw.com. *Please note that the preceding information is provided for general informational purposes only and is not intended to constitute legal advice or opinion.

CareCard replacement to be issued in 2012

New ID cards coming The replacement for B.C.’s CareCard will provide online access to medical records, and may also be used to confirm B.C. residence and age while keeping other information private. Health Minister Mike de Jong announced the new “smart card” plan in May, saying it will also offer the option of doubling as a driver’s licence. The government is phasing out the

existing CareCard, mainly because there are 9.1 million cards in circulation and only 4.5 million residents eligible for the Medical Services Plan. The new cards will have a picture and an electronic chip, and be renewable every five years. Labour, Citizen Services and Open Government Minister Margaret MacDiarmid said the government hopes to start issuing them in 2012.

Amendments to the information and privacy law now before the legislature would allow secure online access by residents and authorized medical professionals, for prescriptions, lab test results and other health records. They may also be used to confirm student status or whether a resident is 19 or over, without releasing other personal information. - Black Press

Accomplice White Rock Players Club’s new season opens Wednesday (Oct. 12) at 8 p.m. with Rupert Holmes’ witty brain-teasing comedymystery-thriller Accomplice, directed by David Lloyd Austin, at Coast Capital Playhouse, 1536 Johnston Rd. Featuring Ben Odberg, Lori Tych, Ben Cross and Sunny Stump, the ultra-complex puzzler starts as a traditional English thriller of the Christie school – but soon transcends the form surprisingly, as layer upon layer of mystery and motivation are revealed. Performances are 8 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday until Oct. 29, with a 2:30 p.m. Sunday matinee on Oct. 23. For tickets, call 604-536-7535, or visit www.whiterockplayers.ca

Blue Frog Studio Uptown recording and performance venue Blue Frog Studio is continuing its schedule of intimate concerts with high quality performers. Coming up this week are a back-to-back pair of concerts: the return of White Rock-raised jazz singer Chris Williams on Thursday (Oct. 13) at 8 p.m. and an adventurous virtuoso guitar extravaganza with the duo of John Gilliat and Benjamin Woods on Friday (Oct. 14) at 8 p.m. Williams, who moved to Los Angeles 15 years ago, has won kudos for his passion, his mastery of scat singing and his musical maturity as an interpreter of ballads, and has won a loyal following that spans many generations of music lovers. Through a career including successful North American and European tours, Williams has worked with a who’s who of famous sidemen, including Justo Almario (Sergio Mendes/ Mongo Santamaria), Alex Acuna (Tolu/Weather Report), Clayton Cameron (Tony Bennett), Terry Landry (Natalie Cole) and Ernie Nunez (Brian Setzer Orchestra).

tand by for a fantastical, “Gothically gorgeous” version of a classic fairy tale when Peninsula Productions present Vancouver Opera’s version of Engelberg Humperdinck’s Hansel and Gretel, Oct. 15, 11 a.m. at White Rock’s First United Church. It’s a fast-paced, family-friendly, 45-minute-long adaptation of the opera, performed in English by a small but energetic company of four singers and piano accompanist, and specially tailored to appeal to young audiences (kindergarten to Grade 7). Alex Browne And one of the highlights of this touring production – in addition to a full complement of dramatic costumes and props – is costume and production designer Drew Facey’s selfcontained Edwardian/ steampunk-ish set, guaranteed to charm fans of Lemony Snickett and cult writer-illustrator Edward Gorey. Young people today appreciate a darker aesthetic, explained stage director and librettist Arniel Gladstone, who was responsible for VOA’s 2010 mainstage production of Lucia di Lammermoor. “Drew and I wanted to create something modern, but with references to a sort of Gothic or Edwardian period that may have only existed in our imaginations,” he said. “This seems to be a perfect match for the Hansel and Gretel story of a struggling family living on the edge of a dark wood,

SAVE BIG! Fiesta fundraiser in Surrey Sheila Reynolds Black Press

It’s a first for the Surrey Christmas Bureau. But it’s hoped ¡Viva Surrey!, an evening of Latin American music and dance, becomes an annual fundraiser for the local charitable organization. “It’s good to do something different,” said SCB co-ordinator K.C. Gilroy, noting donated dollars are becoming more difficult to come by due not only to donor fatigue, but to donor caution as well. “Their own finances might not be as good as in the past.” Gilroy, who lived in Mexico in the ’70s, said she has always wanted to put on a fiesta of sorts in Surrey. Planned for Oct. 15, the evening will include four Surrey-based groups. First up will be Flamenco del Mar, a troupe that will perform several passionate song and both flamenco and Spanish dance pieces. Alejandro Ruiz and his family will then take their ancient instruments to stage as Mayan Marimba, playing traditional marimba music.

Portal al Tango, featuring Bobbi and Patricia Lusic, will then grace the dance floor, followed by the toe-tapping beat of Moviendolo, a salsa band led by Edwin Martinez. There will even be a salsa lesson to get the crowd “up and moving,” said Gilroy. Traditional Mexican food from

Taqueria Jalisco will be available for purchase, as will beer and wine. And attendees will be invited to bid on a selection of silent auction items. ¡Viva Surrey! takes place Oct. 15, 6-11 p.m. at Espirito Santo Hall, 12918 112 St. For tickets ($15), call 604-581-9623.

This past offseason, forwards Sean McGovern (left) and Charles Orzetti (below) were brought into the Eagles’ nest from Ontario and New Jersey, respectively. Gord Goble photos

Head coach Matt Erhart relies on scouts and word-of-mouth reviews when bringing in players from afar

Eagles look east for new on-ice talent Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

or any junior hockey coach, bringing in players from afar who you’ve never actually seen play is an inexact science. Maybe they’re not as good as advertised, maybe they don’t fit well with the team’s style of play, or maybe they simply don’t like playing that far from home. But still, scouring hockey rinks far and wide for talent is essential to ice a successful team, which is why coaches and general managers – like Surrey Eagles’ Matt Erhart – have to trust their scouts, contacts, and good wordof-mouth reports when bringing in import players. “Obviously, we have a scouting staff, but a lot of it is personal connections,” said Erhart, a former Eagles defenceman who also played at Quinnipiac University. “For me, it’s old college coaches, former

teammates, or other people I’ve met through hockey.” The Eagles also have a strong presence in the northeastern United States – the team’s co-owner Scott Bradley is a longtime employee of the Boston Bruins, and has plenty of hockey contacts himself. “It’s really a group effort. We just pool our resources here and there and find some kids who want to join our program,” Erhart said. Each BCHL team is allowed eight import players, and a player loses import status once they’ve played a full season in the league. The Eagles currently have five imports on the active roster, and another, forward Edward Creighton, who

will be added once he recovers from an injury suffered on the first day of training camp in August. Many of the Birds’ imports this season hail from back east; forwards Brandon Tanev, Sean McGovern and Creighton are from Ontario, while Charles Orzetti is a New Jersey native. Another Eagle, secondyear defenceman Beau Orser, is also an Ontario native. Other non-B.C. players on the roster include blue-liner D.J. Jones and forward Ben Greiner, both of whom are from Minnesota. Erhart said a roster heavy on Easterners was not done by design, but simply worked out that way this year.

“There are certain schools, certain guys, I’m friends with, or know well, and they’ll recommend guys they think will succeed in the style we play, and on the Olympic-sized (ice) sheet,” he said. By luck or design, past Eagles teams have often iced rosters heavy on players from a certain geographical area. Under former owner Bruce Rielly, who lived in Newport Beach, Calif., the team frequented signed players from the Golden State, and a fair number of Alaskan-born players have also worn the Eagles’ jersey in recent years. And the Eagles are not alone. This year in Penticton, the Vees roster boasts eight Minnesota natives, thanks in no small part to head coach Fred Harbinson’s connections to the state; he was formerly an assistant coach at St. Cloud State. And while one might assume the move see page 25

Just days before competing at the Challenge Trophy national championship tournament in Brossard, Que., ICST Pegasus lost for the first time in Vancouver Metro Soccer League play this season. Pegasus was blanked 2-0 by Surrey United Firefighters Sept. 30 at Newton Athletic Park, falling three points out of first place in the Premier Division with a 2-1-1 (won-tied-lost) record. Ryan Reynolds assisted on both Surrey goals, crossing to Andrew Proctor for the first tally early in the game, then firing the ball off the Pegasus goal post before it was put in the net by Niall Thompson. United is 2-0-1 and in fifth place in the

Premier Division. They hosted Columbus FC Saturday at Newton Athletic Park; results were not available by press deadline. The Delta Hurricanes picked up their first win in the Premier Division, blanking Coquitlam Metro-Ford Wolves 2-0. Hamzah Gurung netted both goals, scoring the winning goal in the 81st minute, and adding an insurance goal on a pass from Joti Thind with just minutes to play. The 1-0-2 Hurricanes host Westside FC Sunday at noon at John Oliver Park.

Valley West tied for first Rick Kupchuk Black Press

The Valley West Hawks are in a three-way tie for first place in the B.C. Hockey Major Midget League, after splitting a two-game series with the Okanagan Rockets earlier this month at the University of British Columbia’s Thunderbird Winter Sports Centre. The Hawks took a 2-0 lead after 20 minutes of the first game Saturday, but surrendered four third period goals in a 6-4 loss. Ram Brar of Surrey tallied twice, both on assists from Semiahmoo skaters Sam Chatterly and Matthew Cox. Jerret Smith and

Mitchell Friesen, both of Surrey, had the other Hawks’ goals. In Sunday’s rematch, Okanagan twice took one-goal leads in the second period, only to have Valley West tie the game on each occasion. Friesen netted what proved to be the game-winning goal in the last minute of play in the period. Latrell Charleson and Spencer Meyer of Surrey, and Langley’s Daniell Lange with his second of the game, completed the scoring in the third period. Nick Coltura of Langley also scored for the Hawks. With three wins and a loss in four games, Valley West is tied
