Congratulations to all the winners of the 2013 Readers’ Choice Awards
south surrey & White rock This year’s “Best of” reader poll brings businesses and their clients closer than ever before. In the past, we had readers vote for their favourite businesses throughout the city. This year we asked them to tell us about the businesses they consider the best in their neighbourhoods and communities. It is the local businesses that make our communities vibrant and add character and depth to our daily lives.
So congratulations to everyone. Being named the Best in your neighbourhood speaks volumes about the difference you are making in your neighbor’s lives and the impact you are having on communities all across this region. It is our pleasure to highlight these wonderful companies and the huge part that they are playing in being the Best in your neighbourhoods & communities.
First Row: Councillor Bruce Hayne, Councillor Mary Martin, Mayor Dianne Watts, Councillor Judy Villeneuve, Councillor Barinder Rasode Second Row: Councillor Tom Gill, Councillor Linda Hepner, Councillor Barbara Steele, Councillor Marvin Hunt

Thank you to everyone who responded. Once again, we were inundated with entries. While not scientific by any means, this poll demonstrates the very strong link that local businesses have with their customers. And when readers take time to cast their votes and send in their ballots, we know that they want their voices to be heard. We are grateful to be part of this process and we strongly believe in our community and the businesses that contribute to making this one of the best places to live in the Lower Mainland.

Driver charged after two officers hurt in crash Tom Zytaruk
Now staff Twitter @tomzytaruk
NEWTON — A Surrey man accused of injuring two Mounties in a traffic crash in Newton on Monday has been charged with two counts of criminal negligence
causing bodily harm. James Burton Weaver, 47, appeared in Surrey provincial court Tuesday. The two Surrey RCMP officers were taken to hospital Monday after they were injured in a crash outside the Newton district police office.
Police say a male officer was standing between two cars and was pinned when a vehicle struck a parked police car, pushing it into another parked cruiser. A female officer who was sitting in a police car at the time was also injured. Both officers have since been released from hospital.
WHITE ROCK — The installation of additional safety measures at six of White Rock’s rail crossing points along the waterfront could cost the city up to $1.8 million. That’s the determination by a consultant hired by the city to look at what can be done to increase safety around the crossings instead of having trains blowing their whistles at all hours of the day. The report was ordered by Transport Canada following the death of 42-yearold Anita Lewis after she was hit by a train while jogging along the tracks last July. According to director of engineering and municipal operations Greg St. Louis, the report recommends that in order to safely continue with whistle cessation for passing trains, the city would have to invest in putting up flashing lights and bells at six crossings along the waterfront. “It would be similar to what’s at the pier crossing,” said St. Louis. “Also, for most crossings they already have a ‘Z’ ramp to walk up to, so those ones wouldn’t require a gate, however, the report is recommending putting a gate at the pier because there’s no ‘Z,’ nothing that forces you to look left and right.” The findings of the report were revealed at a meeting of the recently formed rail safety task force, which is headed by Coun. Grant Meyer. see BELLS › page 4

School district’s new boss sets priorities Christopher Poon
Now staff Twitter @questionchris
J
ordan Tinney always knew he wanted to work with numbers and technology. The sense of accomplishment in solving problems and making things work were the driving force in making Tinney who he is today. Now, as head of the largest and most unique school district in the province, Surrey’s new superintendent is looking at a numbers game that involves juggling the needs of over 70,000 students. But just because there’s a new face in charge doesn’t mean things are going to shift in a drastically new direction. According to Tinney, he and former superintendent Mike McKay share a very similar vision for the district and there aren’t plans to fix what isn’t broken at this time. “I would say that we’ve had many conversations about where we thought the district might go and what that might look like,” said Tinney. “We had very much a shared vision, we’re in a good place and we have things that we need to tune up and refine but overall the same direction and vision, same priorities.” That’s not to say that Tinney isn’t looking to improve. When asked about key priorities for the next few years, Tinney identified several aspects that he’d like the district to focus on. “One of the key pieces we want to look at is the success of aboriginal learners,” he said. “Right now their graduation rate is about 48 per cent, which I just can’t accept as a
Jordan Tinney is the Surrey school district’s new superintendent. (Photo: KEVIN HILL) superintendent. I think we have good people doing good work, but we’re just not getting the results we want.” Comparatively, the district’s overall success rate is about 86 per cent, but with 3,000 aboriginal students in the district, Tinney says something has to change. Another priority on Tinney’s radar – and one that should come as no surprise to anyone – is capital and infrastructure. “We have more students in portables than 35 districts have students, so that’s just the scale of who we are,” he said. “It’s an overwhelming number of portables and that almost gets lost because we’re so huge, but we absolutely need a new secondary school in East Clayton, we need a new secondary school in Grandview (Heights) and we need additions to other elementary schools because we’re looking at about 6,000 students in portables.” And therein lies perhaps Tinney’s biggest challenge as superintendent – keeping up with Surrey’s drastic growth. “It seems every time I drive out to Clayton there’s a new set of houses,” he laughed. “So our challenge is that we’ve grown so quickly, how do we set up our infrastructure to
support our growth, because we’re going to hit 80,000 students in 10 years.” One such solution is looking at concepts that might include partnerships with other community stakeholders, such as the City of Surrey. “We’re currently working with the city on what we might do in Grandview, where the city is building the aquatic centre.” According to Tinney, the school district actually owns all of the property behind the forthcoming South Surrey Aquatic Centre, and with the hopes that a new school in Grandview will be greenlit sooner rather than later, the possibility of facility-sharing to save space is being explored. “So what we’re looking at is what we could do to share our facility with the city and vice versa,” he explained. “So they own the pool and that property, and we own that land right behind them. So that whole block of land could be used as a combined city/school district community hub. So we’re trying to see how that might come to fruition and see what can be done. “What we don’t want is a secondary school with two full-size gymnasiums right beside a rec centre that builds two full-size
gymnasiums. There’s got to be a better way.” Of course, it all comes down to funding, the issue being that the current model used by the Ministry of Education requires school districts to first have an overcapacity of students before capital is made available to build more infrastructure. It’s a model that some have criticized as being too passive, but Tinney understands where the caution comes from. “The ministry will only give you capital if you can prove you have the numbers and the reason for that unfortunately is in the past, there have been situations where schools have been built and the kids didn’t arrive,” he said. “In essence, it’s fair as I’ve seen cases where schools have been built and they didn’t need to happen, but I know for us it’s so clear that we need new buildings. With 6,000 kids in portables it’s clear we need more schools.” Looking to the future, Tinney said the district, despite all the growing pains, is still in a very good place. “To contrast, a district like Vancouver is struggling with decline, so for them, the conversation might be about ‘what do we cut?’ because when you have fewer children, you have less funding,” he said. “In Surrey, we have more children, so for example, when we roll out iPads and computing hardware, there needs to be a plan with it, it’s a package, so our role in the province is we can be a model and be a model for many things.” Another such model is the district’s recent move to expand a pilot program to get rid of letter grades in elementary schools and some of the earlier grades in select secondary schools, the goal being to foster more useful feedback. Considering Surrey’s size, Tinney said such initiatives are easier for Surrey to try before other district’s look at adopting them. “We have developed a whole set of tools, forms and documents and we can just give them to everyone,” he explained. “You want these? Take them and massage them to your district’s use, and in that way, I feel we can be and are a real leader in the district and even the province.”

“So to continue with the whistle cessation they want these precautions in there. So we’re going to obviously look into that because safety is the highest priority,” said Meyer. However, Meyer is cognizant of the fact that installing bells at six more crossings could be opening up a new set of problems for White Rock residents upset with noisy trains. “So there are a few people bringing up the argument to have one whistle at the crossing for a few seconds is better than to have bells going off along the waterfront at six spots for the entire length of a two-kilometre train,” he said. However, before anything is decided, St. Louis said the city still has to meet with rail owner Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) and Transport Canada. “If BNSF says no, then they’re going to have to blow their whistle throughout the city 24/7 through every crossing, same if Transport Canada says no, so basically all
White Rock council is wrestling with the issue of safety at rail crossings. (File photo) three parties have to agree,” he said. If the whistle cessation is agreed upon, the city could look at the federal government to fund up to half of the $1.8 million, but for now, St. Louis said it’s too early to tell what’s going to happen.

Community mailbox woes drive Surrey residents mad Jacob Zinn
Now contributor Twitter @jacobzinn
FLEETWOOD — Residents in North Surrey aren’t too keen on driving eight kilometres to pick up their mail after their community box was damaged. Jie Hu said Canada Post stopped delivering to her community mailbox on Jan. 20 because it had been compromised. Now she and her neighbours have to go to the letter depot in Cloverdale to pick up their mail. “It’s very inconvenient for seniors or lowincome people who don’t have cars,” said Hu, noting that busing to the depot can take more than an hour, and the depot is still a 10-minute walk from the nearest bus stop. While Hu has a vehicle, she notes that the depot’s hours are inconvenient for nine-tofivers, and the depot doesn’t allow relatives to pick up mail for others without a note. “For my husband to pick up my mail, I have to give him an authorization letter because we have different last names,” she said.
Canada Post spokesman Eugene Knapik said the depot has actually extended its hours during the mailbox replacement, opening at 6 a.m. and closing at 6 p.m. on weekdays. “We know that, for some people, it’s out of their way, so we try to give them some more hours to get their mail,” he said. While Knapik couldn’t confirm how the box was damaged, he acknowledged that community mailbox theft has been an issue in the Lower Mainland and said Canada Post is considering replacing some boxes with reinforced equipment in Fleetwood. Knapik said replacing a community box can take time and even repairing a box requires it to be removed. “Anytime a box is compromised in any way, we decommission it to ensure the safety of the mail,” he said. “That can take some time – it can take up to a couple of weeks.” But Hu said there must be a faster way to repair or replace community boxes. “It doesn’t make sense for it to take two or three weeks to get it fixed,” she said. jzinn@thenownewspaper.com

SURREY — The provincial NDP is pushing the B.C. Liberals to finally put a community court in Surrey. Announced at a news conference on Sunday, the NDP has pushed for a community court as part of its Surrey Accord, which also calls on the provincial government to increase policing, oversee recovery homes and develop a plan to support people with mental health issues. “Everyone understands and agrees that the community court, starting out in cities like New York, works,” said Surrey-Newton MLA Harry Bains. Community courts handle cases of repeat offenders with relation to drug use and mental illness. Offenders are directed to a variety of social services, including drug treatment, counselling and health care. Vancouver has had a community court in the Downtown Eastside since 2008. Bains says in the first five months of the Vancouver court opening, 450 people were treated.

“I think it’s a success story and we don’t need to wait anymore.” Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts has pushed for a community court since 2006 when it was added into the city’s crime reduction strategy. She told the Now in 2011 that the city was still pursuing the prospect of opening a community court. “If we’ve got an individual coming forward, we want to make sure that they have the support systems around them to be able to move on and become a productive member of society as opposed to become part of the revolving door of the justice system,” she said. “The system is innovative, cost-effective and more efficient than the provincial court system.” More recently, Watts has stated that the city is already working with province toward creating the court, and once council and staff move into Surrey’s new city hall, the old hall could be used to house a community court. Watts is set to further discuss the need for the court with Attorney General Suzanne Anton on Feb. 5.

Limiting teachers’ bargaining rights ‘unconstitutional’ Christopher Poon
Now staff Twitter @questionchris
SURREY — The province’s limiting of teachers’ bargaining rights has been deemed unconstitutional by the B.C. Supreme Court Monday. The ruling restores collective agreement provisions stripped by the province in 2002 relating to classroom size, composition and special needs support staff. In addition, the province was also ordered to pay $2 million in damages to the British Columbia Teachers Federation (BCTF). While the language has been retroactively restored to the collective agreement dating back to 2002, the provisions mentioned are still on the table during current bargaining. “I’m very happy today,” said BCTF President Jim Iker. “This is the end of a long and costly legal battle for the teachers of B.C.” The legislation in question had already been declared
your fraser valley audi dealership
unconstitutional in 2011 and the judge at that time had given the government a year to address the issues. Iker noted that the government instead simply reintroduced the same provisions, which eventually led to this week’s ruling. Jennifer Wadge, president of the Surrey Teachers Association, said she was pleased with the ruling, as it gives teachers something to work with when it comes to having a say in managing their students’ learning environments. “This is a big victory for students and parents because what this means is the number of specialist teachers would grow drastically,” said Wadge. “So it’s not just class size language but the language about how many counsellors
there are per students, learning support teachers, that’s really the big win for everybody.” Surrey-based Education Minister Peter Fassbender said he was disappointed in the decision. “We’re really concerned about student outcomes and that’s where our focus has been and that’s where it’s going to continue to be and how we ensure we have the maximum amount of dollars dedicated into the classroom,” he said. As for an appeal, Fassbender said the government would need to thoroughly review the ruling and its implications before it decides one way or another.

Pot grower spared jail, gets house arrest instead Tom Zytaruk
Now staff Twitter @tomzytaruk
SURREY — A South Surrey man who had a “relatively sophisticated” marijuana growing operation inside his home will not be going to jail. Justice Richard Goepel found Nhuc Minh Ta, 48, guilty of illegally growing marijuana and possessing it for the purpose of trafficking last September in B.C. Supreme Court and sentenced him last Thursday in Vancouver to 12 months of house arrest, followed by six months of curfew. “This operation was undertaken in a residential neighbourhood and posed potential dangers to others in the neighbourhood both from the violence that can be associated with grow operations and the serious risk that can be caused by an electrical bypass,” Goepel noted. “Mr. Ta stood to profit greatly from his enterprise. Absent any evidence to the contrary, I infer his sole motive was greed.” The Crown sought a 15-month prison
term for Ta and his defence lawyer argued for a conditional sentence. Ta was arrested when the Surrey RCMP Marijuana Enforcement Team raided his house on Sept. 1, 2010. He was the only one home. Goepel said the police found a “relatively sophisticated” marijuana growing operation. The court heard an exhaust system ran from the basement up through the ceilings and floors of the main and second floor to the attic, from where stale air from the nurseries was vented. Five growing rooms and a hydro bypass were in the basement. All told, the police found 871 plants, in various stages of maturity, and the crop was estimated to be worth somewhere between $196,000 and $305,000. The court heard that Ta immigrated to Canada in 1987, became a citizen in 1990 had no prior criminal record. He is a drywall installer by trade, and has three children ages 19, 17 and 16. His 86-year-old mother lives with them.

Consult parents on costly trips ViewPoint Harvinder Sandhu
EMAIL YOUR LETTERS WITH
I
n the last few months, my 16-year-old son and I have been at odds regarding a field trip that his high school band teacher is organizing. I would love to have feedback from readers regarding this issue – those with kids in high school only, please (reason being, as a parent with kids in high school, you will understand what I’m talking about). In general, field trips are great for students. The idea for school field trips is to introduce the students to a new environment where they will have an opportunity to learn “outside of the box” in a fun atmosphere. Kids, especially teenagers, love field trips. The best part of school trips for the teens is that they get away from their parents for a few days.
They get to hang out with their friends at a hotel/ lodge/camp and get into mischief, generating stories that they will reminisce about at their 10-year reunion. I’m OK with this. I totally agree field trips are an essential part of the education experience, I just don’t agree on how the cost is not discussed with the parents prior to choosing the destination. My teen’s teachers decided to go somewhere exotic, a place I would love to visit one day when I can afford it. The cost quoted for this destination is $3,000 for a 10-day trip. My jaw dropped when I read the letter from the school outlining what teachers were planning. My teen is, of course, excited. Who wouldn’t be? I would be ecstatic if my parents paid for me to go to an amazing locale. I am not excited. The destination is not essential for my teen to learn about life – in fact, if anything, it’s too exotic a destination to learn anything of value other than having a great holiday! Yes, it has history, but my teen is not going to go to the museums unless he is dragged there, and then
it’s still going to be wasted on him as he’s not into that. So, the discussion in the Sandhu family home is this: Should the teachers have talked to the parents first about this potential destination and the cost associated with it, prior to getting the students’ input? This is how my teen’s teachers handled this: Suggesting a destination to the students, getting them excited about it and then presenting the outrageous ticket price to the parents, through the students. My son feels the letter notifying the parents was sufficient notice. I don’t. Saying no to my son is difficult now – he is excited. His friends are going, it’s an experience of a lifetime, it’s going to be so much fun, and on and on went the list of reasons why he should go, and why I can’t say no,
because the whole trip will be cancelled. I feel the teachers should have sought the parents’ input via email since it’s the parents who are going to be paying a majority of the cost, if not all. Not all families can afford an extravagant field trip like this one. I feel sorry for the student who can’t afford to go. He or she will always remember that. A heartache that could be avoided if parents’ input was first obtained. As for my son, he’s been informed that he will be paying two thirds of the cost if he wants to go.

Socially speaking Here’s what some of our followers on social media have to say about Harvinder’s column. You can join the discussion by finding us on Facebook and Twitter by searching for The Now Newspaper. Niamh Kavanagh Interesting -- I don't remember a "field trip" like this in high school. I remember exchange trips and spring break trips -- none of which I ever went on because languages weren't my thing and my family sure didn't have the money to send me on Spring break trips. Field trips were a day to science world or physics at playland. I think the article is using "field trip" in a very loose way to rile up parents. Like · Reply · 5 hours ago

The Editor, I write as a concerned parent of two children in the Surrey school district. Last year, both my children enrolled in German 10 via Surrey Connect. This is the only way to study the German language in the district as no school offers actual classes. Our daughter quickly completed the course and our son was working toward completion by August 2014. Both planned to take German 11 in 2014. At the end of last year, it was announced that, due to low enrolment in Surrey Connect as a whole, five teachers would be reassigned within the district. These are the five teachers with the least seniority, not those with the low enrolment courses. Unfortunately, this means that the only teacher of German in our school district will be reassigned and will no longer be teaching German. One day, I spent hours at Surrey Connect watching this teacher valiantly working to allow as many students as possible to complete their exams before the Friday deadline. Students have been greatly disadvantaged as they have had their study time truncated and I am aware that not all students are actually going to be able to complete their courses. Even those who do complete will have no further opportunity to study German unless they attend a private school or hire a tutor. I wish to express our extreme gratitude to Frau Kostamo for all her efforts to support our son completing German 10 and our sorrow that this important area of study is no longer available in Surrey’s school district.

The Editor, How long are the province and TransLink going to permit the City of New Westminster to frustrate the flow of traffic and transit through Metro Vancouver? Recent delays in inter-municipal Pattullo Bridge replacement meetings and continued squabbling about the bridge size, position, configuration, and structure – as well as an insistence that the bridge be tolled – have been engineered by New Westminster to keep traffic off its streets. These delays are costly for taxpayers and impede the longterm efficient flow of traffic throughout Metro Vancouver. New Westminster feels that it has more than their share of Metro Vancouver traffic. What community doesn’t have traffic through it from commuters from adjacent municipalities? Look at Burnaby with Marine Way, Kingsway, Canada Way, Highway 1, Lougheed Highway and Barnett/Hastings coursing through it. Look at Vancouver with all of the arterial and collector streets crisscrossing the city. Every municipal jurisdiction has more traffic than they wish but most look at the greater picture and know that we must have an efficient flow of people and materials through Metro Vancouver in order to ensure the city’s viability. I urge our government representatives to cut through the delays and have the larger picture in mind. If New Westminster fails to co-operate in this important project, then the province and TransLink should ignore New Westminster’s isolationist determination to have the Pattullo Bridge moved and tolled so that they reduce commuter traffic through their community.

Large bunch of fresh roses to the new grocery store “Fresh St. Farms” that has opened up in Fleetwood. Such a great place to shop – fresh meats, fish, deli and bakery along with great coffee (and the beans are roasted on site). Keep up the great customer service that is given every day by all of your staff. Bouquets of roses to the staff of Peace Portal Lodge in South Surrey. Our thanks to the many people there who donated time and effort to make our mother’s 100th birthday one of her best. We could not have had such a wonderful and memorable event without you. Many thanks from our family. A bundle of roses to the young couple (his name sounded like Keesh) who, at about 2:30 a.m. on New Year’s Eve went out of their way to drive two strangers to their homes from Peace Arch Hospital when they couldn’t get a taxi. They refused to accept payment but I would like them to know how very grateful I was for their act of kindness. Much happiness to you this year. A dozen fresh roses to the police officers at the Newton bus loop who were recently handing out $75 tickets to all the smokers who make it hard to breathe in a public space. A bucket of rotten tomatoes to the conscienceless smokers who walk through the Newton bus loop blowing smoke over everyone waiting for the bus in a no-smoking zone. Half a rotten tomato and half a rose to the reader who was griping about illegal suites. Because of these suites, I know a person who is no longer homeless and an addict! They have a safe home, getting into school for a career, don’t commit illegal acts nor bring undesirables home. They’re becoming a fully functioning legal member of society – one less person the police have to worry about. But on the flip side, I agree because there are the ignorant jerk slumlords who go make 10 to 15 suites in a house. Its a tough topic. Rotten tomatoes to the jerk driving the black Volkswagen who made a U-turn on Best to threaten me after I called out your bad driving. I have you on this nifty little video camera rolling through the stop sign, cutting off the driver on Best who had the clear right-of-way, all while holding your phone to your ear! And I’d bet next month’s paycheque (which is probably more than what you made last year) you’d been drinking, too. Be a real man and obey the laws. RCMP and ICBC will love the video – something tells me it’s not your first infraction. A big bus load of rotten tomatoes to TransLink for cancelling Sunday family travel. As a family with four children on a budget, this really impacts our time out with our children. For me it’s worth the $91 a month to go out with them every weekend – but now, I might just walk.

Showtime soon for Surrey’s ‘Centre Stage’ Vancouver Opera event among first bookings at city hall’s new 200-seat theatre, due open in April Tom Zillich
Now staff Twitter @tomzillich
Artist sketch shows the City of Surrey’s Centre Stage theatre, which doubles as council chambers at the new city hall on 104th Avenue. “Our plan is to repeat this concert, with some variation, as one of the first acts to inhabit the new theatre space in the council chambers there,” Tuck said. The opera company is looking to tap into Surrey’s dynamic arts community, Tuck said. “Surrey is top of mind with everyone, not only as the fastest growing municipality but also a burgeoning arts community, a cultural community,” he said. “Part of our plan is to revolutionize or increase our accessibility and our connection with the community, to build our audiences. If (Surrey) is the biggest municipality around, then that’s a place we should be.” The official “public” opening of Centre Stage is scheduled to coincide with the city’s Party for the Planet celebrations on Saturday, April 26, the Now has learned. A media tour of the theatre is planned for Feb. 11. A PowerPoint presentation prepared by Neil Scott, Surrey’s cultural production co-ordinator, reveals Centre Stage details, including theatre-standard lighting and sound system, theatrical drapes and masking, installation of a lighting
The idea is to really open up this space to the community, unlike the current council chambers. catwalk, elevated stage, projection screen and an “innovative” system for removing management and staff desks from the stage area, by dropping them down below the stage itself. Venue features include a box office operated by the Surrey Arts Centre, concession/bar operated by Take Five Café, a six-storey-high lobby (the atrium of city hall), two dressing rooms close to the stage, a portable wardrobe rack and four portable makeup mirrors. An adjacent “City Room,” more than 1,300 square feet in size, has infrastructure for audio and sound in place. As of this week, the plan is to have city council hold its first meeting in the new chambers on March 31, said Coun. Judy Villeneuve.
“The idea is to really open up this space to the community, unlike the current council chambers, and to use it for a real variety of things,” said Villeneuve, chair of the city’s culture development and public art advisory committees. “It’s well thought out as a theatre space, with all the amenities needed for that, and it won’t be like someone trying to stage a show or production in a regular council chamber.” The venue’s size, location and amenities seem to be attractive to users, Villeneuve added. “A lot of people are talking about it and know it’s coming, and the arts centre has had quite a few inquiries about the space,” she said. “It’s another venue that can be used to distribute different arts opportunities to different areas of the city, just like we do with sports and recreation opportunities. I’m excited about that, because I think there is more interest in supporting the arts, and that’s proven through a lot of statistics and studies.”

CITY CENTRE — Two-hundred permanent seats, an automated drape system to hide the desks of city councillors and a state-of-the-art digital audio mixing console are features of Centre Stage, the theatre at Surrey’s new city hall on 104th Avenue. The dual-purpose space will also be used by Surrey city council for its meetings. As a performance venue, Centre Stage is already attracting attention from local arts groups, thanks in part to an outreach effort by staff with Surrey’s Parks, Recreation & Culture department. “There’s a lot of interest in this venue,” said Kent Gallie, the city’s performing arts manager. “The number of (performing arts) venues in Surrey is limited, so the opportunity for a new venue of this size, at that location, is welcome news to a lot of people in the arts and culture community.” One of the first organizations to show interest in Centre Stage is Vancouver Opera, which has tentatively booked the theatre for a concert on Saturday, April 12. “It looks like the new space in the council chambers will be architecturally stunning,” Doug Tuck, marketing director of the opera company, told the Now. “I’ve seen the ground plans.… The (space) will be quite adaptable to all users, with a 50-foot-wide stage and curtains, lights and sound. I think it will be very useful for lots of different purposes.” But before its show at Centre Stage, the company is staging a similar “Opera’s Greatest Hits – and More” concert at Surrey Arts Centre – also operated by the City of Surrey – on Saturday, Feb. 8, featuring four singers and a pianist who are part of Vancouver Opera’s Yulunda M. Faris Young Artists program. Tickets for the show are $20 for adults, and $10 for seniors, students and kids aged 18 and under, via tickets. surrey.ca and 604-501-5566.

Hit musical comedy next for White Rock Players ArtsScene Melanie Minty Columnist
W
hite Rock Players Club is celebrating its 69th season, owns and operates the building that houses the Coast Capital Theatre and usually produces five shows every season. We are promised pantomimes, comedy, drama and thrillers. It is a huge undertaking, considering that this whole operation is run primarily by volunteer power. I think many of these volunteers were probably theatre majors in college. I am guessing this because of a recent posting I saw on Facebook. Yes, I read my Facebook messages occasionally. I read this one because it started with “22 signs you were a theatre major.” Fun stuff, things like, “You are not talking to yourself, but are doing a monologue. You don’t simply come into a room or leave, you ‘enter’ and ‘exit.’ You understand the difference between upstage and downstage, and you don’t start new chapters in your life, you begin new acts.” There are more of these signs, but you get the drift. The people running our community theatre clubs (including Surrey Little Theatre and Langley Players) are true “theatre majors,” even if they didn’t actually study theatre in college. So I will just say “break a leg,” rather than “good luck,” to White Rock Players with its musical comedy A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum. This Sondheim classic, a Broadway smash hit, has a stellar cast starting with Steve Dotto. Dotto is a song-and-dance man from way back, and certainly is familiar with how to “enter.” The tech-savvy folks may recognize him as the guy on TV and radio (Dotto’s Data Café, Dotto Tech) who tries to help the average person wade through and operate all the amazing apps and
other tech stuff. (Steve, I’m still waiting for my iPad lesson. Call me. We’ll do lunch.) The large cast also includes Ray Van Iperen as Hysterium, Raymond Hatton as Sennex, Helen Volkow as Domina, Bryce Mills as Miles Gloriosus, Dann Wilhelm as Hero, Rebekah MacEwan as Philia and Pat McDermott as Lycus, and more. If, by
chance, you know these people by sight and see them in, say, a grocery store lineup and they are making funny sounds and faces, don’t be alarmed. They are just doing vocal warm-ups. It’s a sign – a sign of being an actor, that is, not a sign of being crazy. Directed by Ryan Mooney, with music direction by Marione Astrera, A Funny Thing
Happened on the Way to the Forum runs from Feb. 12 to March 1. Tickets are $18 for adults and $16 for students, seniors and CCS members, via 604-536-7535 and www. whiterockplayers.ca.
‘GOOD VIBRATIONS’ ART SOUGHT
Meanwhile, the City of White Rock, in partnership with Semiahmoo Arts, is currently accepting
submissions to its group exhibition, Good Vibrations: Music and Dance in Visual Art. All artists are invited to submit a maximum of three works of art that deal with the subject of music and/or dance. This group exhibition focuses on how artists interpret “the awe-inspiring world of music and dance with their pallet.” The exhibition runs from March 8 to
April 17, and the opening reception will be held on Saturday, March 8 from 2 to 3:30 p.m. at White Rock Community Centre. Get the submission form online (semiahmooarts.com) or contact Laura Offley at the Semiahmoo Arts office, 604536-8333 or lauraoffley@ semiahmooarts.com. Now, for me, it’s exit, stage right. melminty@telus.net

SURREY — On the Chinese calendar, the “Year of the Horse” will gallop in this week. A number of events will celebrate the Chinese New Year, or Lunar New Year, which is officially marked on Friday, Jan. 31. In Surrey, Central City Shopping Centre and Neptune Seafood Restaurant are celebrating the occasion with cultural fun and festivities on Saturday, Feb. 1, starting at noon. Attractions include a traditional lion dance and performances by past Central City Model Search winners, Miss World Canada delegates, Fresh Groove dance group and a Chinese instrument music trio. Elsewhere, DIVERSEcity Community Resources Society will hold its “Year of the Horse” celebrations at noon Tuesday, Feb. 4, outdoors at #1107-7330 137th St., Surrey. The event will feature a performance by Choy Lee Fut Hung Hsing Koon, led by Peter Wong.
On Friday evening, the White Rock and South Surrey Chinese Society will host its annual gala at Bell Performing Arts Centre. The event is sold out. In Vancouver’s historic Chinatown district, the annual parade will feature dance performances, floats, firecrackers and more, starting at 11 a.m. Sunday, Feb. 2. The “Vancouver Chinatown Spring Festival” event is staged by Chinese Benevolent Association of Vancouver (CBA), founded in 1895 by “six pioneers who saw a need to establish an organization that would provide mutual support and leadership within the Chinese Canadian community,” according to a post on the association’s website. For more details, including a map of the parade route, visit cbavancouver.ca. While in Vancouver, check out the Flight of the Dragon film experience at the FlyOver Canada facility at Canada Place. Patrons are seat-belted in for a thrilling “flight” over the Chinese landscape during the limited run of the film, until March 2. Details are at www. flyovercanada.com, or call 604-620-8455.

– elephants, buffalo, lions, leopards and rhinos. One of Kaptyn’s filmmaker friends, Anne Pick of Real to Reel Productions, is currently shooting a documentary called Gambling on Extinction, as many of these Ramona Kaptyn animals, especially the rhino, may soon become extinct. The CARP South African adventure will also include a lagoon cruise to the famous Knysa Heads and a visit to Featherbed Nature Reserve, a wine-pairing dinner in Stellenbosch and more. Prices for the 18-day trip in November start at $7,599 per person. An information session will be held Thursday, Feb. 6 at 6:30 p.m. at White Rock Community Centre. For details, call Kaptyn at 778-294-0787. Other events planned by CARP in White Rock/Surrey include “Dying to Have a Conversation,” a panel discussion about life choices/dying with dignity, on March 6, and a “My Life” presentation featuring Graham Kerr – TV’s “Galloping Gourmet” – on April 24.
WHITE ROCK — A group trip to South Africa and Zimbabwe’s Victoria Falls is planned by the White Rock/Surrey chapter of CARP, the group devoted to “A New Vision of Aging for Canada.” The fall 2014 excursion will be led by chapter chair Ramona Kaptyn and April Lewis, the B.C. representative for CARP. “In 1974 when I first visited South Africa and environs, Nelson Mandela was in prison and apartheid was rampant,” said Kaptyn, a travel writer at the time. “It will be wonderful to return to a new South Africa and see again what I think is the most magnificent scenery on earth. The creator of this world certainly chose the southern part of this continent as his ultimate showplace.” The CARP tour will start in mineralrich Sandton, the bustling cosmopolitan centre of greater Johannesburg where the world’s greatest gold rush started in 1886, and move on to Soweto, where a visit to the Apartheid Museum will look at the dynamic history of racial segregation. Next stop is Kruger National Park, after a drive through the spectacular Drakensburg Mountain Range and the red-sandstone Blyde River Canyon. Kruger is the largest game reserve in South Africa and home to the “Big 5”

Baobab Inclusive Empowerment Society
Soccer program empowers kids with skills Amy Reid
Now staff Twitter @amyreid
GUILDFORD — Every Thursday night at Hjorth Road Elementary, a group of roughly 20 children fills the gym with laughter and footsteps as they learn to play soccer, but organizers say they aim to teach them much more than that. The inclusive soccer program is put on by the Baobab Inclusive Empowerment Society, based in Whalley, and is a free program for children ages five to 13 who cannot afford to pay for recreation. Certified coaches are brought in to teach the children. The program was born last year after some parents who were accessing the organization’s other programs expressed a desire to put their children in sports but had no money to do so. “Most of them are refugees and immigrant parents,” said the society’s director Felix Kongyuy. “Most of them were newcomers as well, and they needed a place where they could meet and make some friendships.” Kongyuy said too often, children don’t get enough exercise. “That is one of the most fundamental goals that we have, because we’ve realized that a lot of young kids these days just sit in front of the TV and play games,” he said. And while children learn about the sport, they are also taught life skills. “Most of the children, they come from different backgrounds. Working together is something that they learn,” Kongyuy said. “One of our core focuses is to promote multiculturalism. As a result of being here, they create new friends and they get to know others who are quite different than them. So we are promoting friendship as well. We want to empower the kids with skills to lead these groups one day, and to teach them about peace, which is very important.”

Jane Liu’s son, six-year-old Hui, takes part in the program and he loves it, she said. “He enjoys it so much. Every time he asks me, ‘When is the soccer class?’” she said, adding that he had never participated in sports before because she couldn’t afford it. “It’s very expensive. For me, my husband is not in Canada, I’m a single mom, so I can’t work a full-time job so my income is low. I cannot pay for my son to go to soccer class,” she said.
Liu said the class has benefited him socially, and he’s made friends. “It gives kids a chance to play. It’s very great,” she said. “I am very thankful to have this program.” Currently, the society pays to rent out the gymnasium to run the program, but hopes to find a free space to offer the class. To get involved, email info@ baobabinclusive.ca or call 778-385-5543.

Annual event
2014 auto show revs up from March 25 to 30
To lease or buy a vehicle? Choosing whether to lease or purchase your new vehicle can be a difficult decision. Both options have their advantages but finding the right option for your pocket book will depend largely on your individual lifestyle. John Roth, vice president of sales, service and marketing at General Motors of Canada offers some insight and comparisons between leasing and buying: Leasing periods typically last two to three years. This is a good option for those who like to switch to new vehicles frequently. Depending on the type of leasing contract, regular maintenance may be included under the contract. Leasing contracts include a limit on kilometres. Leasing may not be the best option for drivers who regularly drive long distances. On the other hand, ownership means you’ll have the vehicle for a longer period of time. This is a good option for those who like to keep their vehicle for longer periods of time. Owners of vehicles are fully responsible for the cost of regular maintenance. News Canada

The frugal Yaris made an ideal choice for multi-car families and
was great as a short-hop commuter car/grocery getter. The sedan version was inexpensive to buy, even with a few basic

options added on, and was particularly good at stretching fuel budgets. It was also surprisingly roomy, being only slightly smaller than Toyota Corolla in terms of cabin space. Even rear-seat passengers enjoyed a reasonable amount of stretch-

out room, which is an uncommon trait in similar small sedans. The Yaris’s 1.5-litre engine did a decent enough job propelling the 1,045-kilogram car, and both the five-speedmanual-transmission and optional-fourspeed-automatic versions delivered stellar fuel economy. Overall fit and finish earned these cars high marks, as did the car’s reputation for superior reliability.
Resale values for most Toyotas remains strong – especially so for models such as the Yaris with its pump-avoiding abilities. Betterequipped sedans will take only slightly more money to acquire.
HEADS UP!
OVERALL
With most tiny economy cars, corners are cut to keep prices low and to make some profit. In the Yaris’s case, the use of interior plastics and mouse-fur seat coverings were turn-offs. So too were the offset-mounted gauges that proved downright distracting. The low-performance powerplant was designed to be thrifty, but objected to being pushed hard or burdened with a full load. Ride quality was generally good, but the somewhat vague steering hampered driving fun. Although trunk space was acceptable, the hatchback version was better at transporting bulky objects. Note that
beginning with the 2011 model year both antilock brakes and stability control (to prevent skids and spins) became standard items.
PRICES
Fleet operators and rental-car companies loved the Yaris for its spaciousness, thriftiness and reliability. That’s a good sign for buyers of pre-owned models seeking the best-possible small car for the least possible cash outlay. It’s not quite up to snuff compared to the class-leading Honda Fit, Nissan Versa, Ford Fiesta or similar sedans, but Toyota fans wouldn’t drive anything else.
