Pride flag won’t fly in Surrey

Does Surrey deserve its

BAD RAP?

City says flag protocol won’t allow for rainbow colours at city hall during pride week. KRISTI ALEXANDRA, 15

‘Where is my son?’

With last week’s rash of violence and death in Surrey and several recent high-profile murders and trials, the city has had its fair share of bad press. While it’s true statistics paint a picture of a community struggling with crime in some areas, they also suggest Surrey is winning the battle overall.

City fights to shed crime-ridden rap While recent survey finds crime is still a top concern, statistics suggest Surrey is actually getting safer Patrick Blennerhassett

I live in Vancouver and I work in Surrey, and my car’s never been broken into in Surrey. But it gets broken into all the frigging time in Vancouver.

s Surrey’s rapid growth continues, business owners and developers are looking to shake off the city’s reputation as a haven for criminal activity. In a recent online survey that polled 495 residents, crime was the biggest issue for 51 per cent. The second-biggest was transportation at 18 per cent. Half of Surrey’s residents (49 per cent) believe the level of criminal activity in their community has increased in the past five years, and 53 per cent say they fear becoming a victim of crime “a great deal” or “a fair amount.” This is in stark contrast to Vancouver residents polled in the Insights West survey, in which housing was the No. 1 issue and crime came in at three per cent below transportation, economic development and health care. Vancouver residents also felt crime had plateaued in their city. With the city’s recent three homicides in five days –not to mention the high-profile, apparently random murder of Surrey mother Julie Paskall in a Newton Arena parking lot late last year, and the infamous Surrey Six gang slaying now unfolding in BC Supreme Court – the community is getting its fair share of bad press. In her final state of the city address in May, Mayor Dianne Watts talked about the task force she spearheaded with Surrey RCMP that resulted in increased arrests. Statistics for the city paint a picture of a community struggling with crime in some areas, but winning the battle overall – mirroring a countrywide trend. In 2013, homicides rose 127 per cent (to 25 last year from 11 in 2012). However, violent crimes were down three per cent. Property crime rose three per cent last year, but prostitution was down 15 per cent. In 2013, assaults were down six per cent and attempted murder was down 60 per cent

In a recent online survey that polled 495 residents, crime was the biggest issue for 51%. from the previous year. Surrey RCMP Sgt. Dale Carr noted many people fail to look at the long-term outlook: crime has dropped across the board in the past decade. “Certainly there have been a number of residences and business owners that have expressed some concern about crime in the city of Surrey,” he said. “And as their police force, we take that concern very seriously. And what’s important to notice too is the population of Surrey has grown significantly over the last number of years, but our crime rate has actually decreased overall.” Leo Smyth, Fraser Valley office leader and private company services partner for PwC, has worked in Surrey for three years, and offers a frank anecdotal rebuttal to critics of the city’s handling of law and order. “I live in Vancouver and I work in Surrey, and my car’s never been broken into in Surrey,” Smyth said. “But it gets broken into

all the frigging time in Vancouver.” Smyth, whose office is just off King George Boulevard on 102nd Avenue, said over the years the press has stigmatized the city through inconsistent reporting. “The media perpetuates this image, and they need to do some homework, to be honest. And understand what’s really going on.” This fall Surrey will elect a new mayor, and for the first time in more than a decade it will not be Watts. Surrey respondents to the Insights West survey ranked Watts’ handling of crime at the bottom of her achievements, as only 16 per cent felt she and council did a “good” job at heightening public safety. And only two per cent said they did an “excellent” job at lowering crime. Surrey Coun. Barinder Rasode, who many believe will run against Surrey First’s Linda Hepner for Watts’ vacant mayoral seat in the fall election, noted some recent meetings

she’s had with manufacturing owners in the Port Kells area dealing with repeated breaking and entering and property theft. “The No. 1 question for any business is the safety and integrity of the neighbourhoods that they invest a lot of money in. And also equally important is the safety of their employees. And what we’re hearing is that a lot of nuisance crime, petty and property crime, is not even getting reported.” For some, such as Jack Bailey, franchisee owner for Snap-on Tools in the Newton area, crime is seldom a major issue. “Overall I don’t think it has a negative effect,” Bailey said. “There are some issues with petty theft, but I think that happens anywhere. I think the police are doing a good job of staying on top of it right now and working with the owners and the community.” Pete Nichols, who owns Whalley Printers that opened in 1968, said the name “Whalley” can be associated with criminal behaviour. “It was suggested as far back as 25 years ago to change our name to something else, and I’ll be buggered if I’m going to succumb to pressure like that. [Operating my business in Whalley] doesn’t stop me from coming into Whalley at any time of the day or night, that’s for sure.” Business in Vancouver

White Rock

Water main delay not expected to impact Tour de White Rock WHITE ROCK — A delay in roadwork along Marine Drive won’t cost taxpayers much, and won’t threaten the upcoming Tour de White Rock bicycle race. That was the gist of a report to council Monday by director of engineering and municipal operations Greg St. Louis updating it on the Marine Drive roadwork. The delay came after crews working on the road struck and broke a water main, which are controlled and overseen by the city’s water operator EPCOR. After some back and forths, EPCOR agreed to replace the water main, which was originally scheduled for replacement in 2016 and authorized the city to commence work on the project. Asked if the delay was due in part to the recent civic worker strike, St. Louis said the job action did not impact the project’s schedule. “We wanted to be finished in June but then we took on the water main,” he said.

main, St. Louis said despite the additional work they would be getting everything done in time for the Tour de White Rock bicycle race, set for July 13. “We should be paving next week and it will not interfere with the tour,” he said. “It will be right on time and it should be no problem getting the work done by then.” EPCOR had planned to replace the water main in 2016 as part of its regularly scheduled maintenance. They had declined a chance to do any work when the city began the process of tearing up the road earlier this year, but after the contractor struck a water main, EPCOR agreed to move the replacement up two years. The 80-metre long replacement is estimated to cost between $550,000 and $600,000, which will be paid for by the city and later reimbursed by EPCOR. The cost to city would be around $25,000. “Just to summarize, this is no cost to the city. There might be some minor expenses but not much, it’s mostly EPCOR and the contractor that will be paying for all of this,” said Baldwin.

Agreement sparks ground-breaking diabetes study Kyle Benning

Parties sign the memorandum at the Canada India Networking Initiative (CINI) 2014 at the Sheraton Vancouver Guildford Hotel. (Photo submitted)

Now contributor Twitter @KBBenning

SURREY – An agreement has been reached to find out how South Asians can live healthier lives, thanks to a collaborative effort between four health giants. South Asians will soon learn how health issues in their community can be solved as Surrey’s Innovation Boulevard, Fraser Health, the South Asian Health Institute (SAHI) and the Sagol Neuroscience Research Center of Sheba Medical from Israel teamed up to sign a Memorandum of Understanding to launch a study on Friday, June 20. The project is set to search the ties between diabetes that lead to cognitive impairment such as dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. The parties involved are coming together through the City of Surrey’s Innovation Boulevard – a network of health and technology companies, universities, researchers and clinicians who come together to improve health care. Many South Asians across the country suffer from diabetes and with more South Asians residing in Surrey than anywhere

else in Canada, Mayor Dianne Watts was extremely pleased that Surrey is involved in the study. “Coming together with Israel, India and Canada, it really is a rare opportunity for

this collaboration take place and I’m really proud to have it done here in Surrey,” Watts said. Dr. Michal Beeri, the Director of the Sagol Neuroscience Research Center, has

worked on a similar project in Israel and sees how her research can be applied to Canada’s South Asian population. “Diabetes does increase the risk of dementia and in the South Asian population there is a very high prevalence of diabetes meaning that with time there will be a very high prevalence of dementia,” Beeri said. “What we’re trying to do here together – the two communities, the two countries – is to find the risk factors, biomarkers, genetics that if we discover what they are, we’re going to be able to put treatments to prevent dementia from happening.” The memorandum was signed at the Canada India Networking Initiative (CINI) 2014, an event put on by Canada India Network Society (CINS). The conference and signing took place at the Sheraton Vancouver Guildford Hotel.

MYSTERY: The case of

Balraj Singh Rattu is one of the older – and most perplexing – cases on the RCMP’s books STORY BY TOM ZYTARUK

Balraj Singh Rattu disappeared on Nov. 6, 1995, six weeks before his 20th birthday.

ighteen years later, tears are still streaming down Vijay Rattu’s cheeks. “It’s very hard around his birthday,” she sobbed, remembering her son Balraj. “I don’t like talking too much about him. It brings pain.” The case of Balraj Singh Rattu, 19, is one of the older mysteries that Surrey RCMP has on the books. “We’re open to any and all possible theories,” said Cpl. Mike Hall, in charge of the detachment’s Unsolved Homicides Unit. “We’ll treat this investigation as a missing persons investigation where foul play is suspected. Obviously, we have not found Mr. Rattu’s body so, does the possibility exist that he’s left and is still alive somewhere? That is a possibility. There’s no evidence to support that at this time, but I’ll keep an open mind to anything.”

Balraj’s dad, Gurmukh Rattu, remembered his son as a strong, gentle young man. “He was responsible,” he said, straightening up in his seat. After attending Frank Hurt secondary school, and Invergarry work and learn, Balraj started driving a Royal City Taxi cab part time on weekends with his dad. On the day he disappeared, Balraj had asked his dad if he could take his car to go see some friends. That was on Nov. 6, 1995, six weeks before his 20th birthday. At about 7 p.m., he was seen by a fellow Royal City Taxi driver who’d been shopping at an Indian grocery store near 138th Street and 72nd Avenue in Newton. Balraj had been sitting in a car, drinking a beer with another young man. “That was it,” Gurmukh said. “That was the last he was seen. He left us. “Where is my son?” The Rattus had been living near Bear Creek Park at the time. Vijay and Gurmukh both believe their son didn’t use drugs, or was involved in anything bad. His disappearance came completely out of the blue, they said. Balraj had been his normal self in the days leading up to it. On the second night of Balraj failing to return home, the Rattus received a creepy phone call at 1:06 a.m. “There was a young girl on the phone,” Gurmukh recalled. “Same age, you know. My voice and my son’s voice were very similar. I picked up the phone, I said ‘Hello,’ and she thought I’m him. She said, ‘Raj, Raj, you were beaten up, eh.’ And then she said, ‘A ha ha,’ she started laughing.” The Rattus then received a second phone call at precisely the same time, 1:06 a.m., on the following night. This time, it was an “old lady.” “She said very clearly our son is not alive any more,” Gurmukh said. “It sounded like an old woman.” Both she, and the young girl before her, spoke in Punjabi. “Like mockery, taunting,” Vijay said. Gurmukh said the police told him they were unable to retrace both phone calls. He suspects his son had been in a fight. After the third day, the Chilliwack RCMP called the Rattus to report they’d found their car – a silver Hyundai Stellar – burnt, in the Vedder Canal, not far from No. 3 Road. It had been driven off the dike. “It was completely burned,” Gurmukh said. The police had identified it by its Vehicle Identification Number. Gurmukh said Balraj’s jacket, undershirt, grey sweatshirt and jeans were found rolled up on the Stellar’s front passenger floor. His shirt was partly burned and there was a spot of blood on the right collarbone area of his sweatshirt. A DNA test confirmed the blood to be his. A $20 bill had been tucked into his clothes. “They didn’t find the body, nothing,”

Two ‘taunting’ mysterious calls came into his family days after Balraj Singh Rattu disappeared in 1995. Gurmukh said. “My son got murdered. Like the phone call, they were telling me clearly. “Somebody must have seen the burning of the car, and the people around,” Gurmukh said. “There are people out there, they know something. Somebody must have seen something.” Vijay suspects two cars went there, and her son’s killer or killers were familiar with the spot where they burned the car. Gurmukh suspects his son was murdered in somebody’s house in Surrey, his body was taken in the car, and then the killer or killers did something with his body before burning and dumping the car. Gurmukh said he still visits the RCMP station every once in a while, “to wake them up. “This is what I do.” He figures the case would have been solved sooner had it happened in India. “I’d certainly like to solve this case before I leave this world.” Gurmukh, 64, is still driving taxi. Balraj had his look, and his voice, he said. “My son, we were friends.” Novembers and Decembers are still “very hard to go through. There is no Christmas since he left.” “In the beginning it was very hard. You learn how to live with pain. There isn’t a day I don’t remember my son. Whoever did the crime, he should pay for that.” The still grieving dad struggled for a metaphor. Finally, he said he feels like he entered this world with two wings, and society has cut one off. “It’s hard for me to go through this life. If somebody knows what happened to my son, please come forward.” Asked if Balraj was involved in crime, as far as police know, Cpl. Hall replied that it’s “unknown whether Mr. Rattu was involved in anything criminal that contributed to what happened to him. We need to be open to any and all possible theories as to what happened until such time that all of the facts are known.” Hall noted that the main challenge for

investigators in this case is, of course, that Balraj has never been found. “This leaves the big question of what happened to him. We’re able to go back and retrace his steps before he went missing, and then we have the car being found in Chilliwack. It’s the mystery of what happened to him

The message I’d give not just to the Rattu family, but really to all of the families – people who have been victims of murders, such as this, or missing persons where we suspect something bad has happened to them – is to not give up hope. Sometimes it may take 10, 15 years before there’s a resolution. Cpl. Mike Hall

during this time that we’re trying to unravel.” The identity of the two callers, on the second and third night of Balraj’s disappearance, remains a mystery. “But we believe they may have information on what happened to Mr. Rattu and would like to speak with them,” Hall said. No one has ever been arrested or charged in connection with the case. If police do have a suspect or suspects in mind, Hall’s not saying. “Generally we probably wouldn’t be announcing to the world when and if we did, but I’m not saying that in this case,” he said. Asked if police believe Balraj was killed in Surrey or in Chilliwack, or if he can reveal the circumstances under which police suspect Balraj might have met his end, Hall said that “until such time that the mystery of what happened to him is solved, it would simply be speculation on my part to say what happened to him, or where it happened. “We believe there are people out there who know exactly what happened to Mr. Rattu and we encourage them to come forward to tell their side of what happened.” Asked if there is any solace police can offer to the Rattus in the meantime, Hall had this to say. “The message I’d give not just to the Rattu family, but really to all of the families – people who have been victims of murders, such as this, or missing persons where we suspect something bad has happened to them – is to not give up hope. “Sometimes it may take 10, 15 years before there’s a resolution. That’s what we are working towards, and we’re looking towards bringing that news to the family, that we’re able to give them some semblance of closure.” Police are asking anyone who has information that could help make that happen to call Cpl. Hall at 604-599-7634. tzytaruk@thenownewspaper.com

DEBATE

NEWSPAPER.COM

Publisher: Gary Hollick

Our view

Flag policy makes sense but a $200K flagpole? Come on.

he City of Surrey is wrapping itself around its flag policy and refusing to fly the pride colours at city hall. You see, there’s a flag protocol at city hall – only federal, provincial or city flags are permitted to fly under this policy. The city considered bypassing protocol but decided against it Monday night, much to the chagrin of Surrey activist Martin Rooney, who first shared his frustration with the Now last week. We’re OK with the city’s decision. After all, if you start flying one flag to commemorate one group’s special day, you’re going to have to fly flags for all – and God help you if you forget a certain group. Surrey says it would be willing to fly these kinds of flags – as other municipalities do – if it gets an extra flagpole and Mayor Dianne Watts says the community should help raise funds for it. But get this. She says an extra flagpole would cost the city $200,000. Say again? Did she say $200,000? What would it be made of, sterling silver? If a solitary flagpole costs $200,000, our new fancy city hall must have been a steal of a deal at $150 million. It’s no wonder our schools have no money – the district must spend a fortune on those costly flagpoles. All kidding aside, we don’t see the need to fly flags at city hall for every single group’s special occasion throughout the year. But we also think we could get a better deal on a flagpole.

To have the amount of support staff downplayed in the recent article is an insult to our members. Does anyone believe that you can recoup $4 million by cutting 20 support staff positions and reducing supply budgets? The true story of cuts to support workers in Surrey’s school district is at least 25 full-time equivalent education assistants, three speech language assistants, three visual language interpreters, at least

seven full-time equivalent clerks, four information technologists and our welding department. Some of these cuts will result in members laid off to the street. Cuts are coming from programs. LST and BASES programs have seen a large decrease in EA hours. Students will not be getting as much speech language assistance. The loss of clerk hours will directly impact the StrongStart programs. We applaud trustee Charlene Dobie for her stand against the raise to the trustee honorarium. We understand that it would be a difficult task to cut jobs because the government will not fund the system adequately, to have to take services away

from students, increase workloads to some and lay people off to the street. Dobie is an education assistant herself so she knows all too well that the average EA works with many students in an average day and makes less than a school trustee. As trustees, we need you to advocate for the students of Surrey. We need you to stop trivializing the cuts and to raise your voices, and be seen taking a stand that this system cannot endure any more cuts.

Column

Don’t go back to old days when it comes to striking PainfulTruth Matthew Claxton

here’s been a lot of whining about strikes in the last few... well, years really. Teachers’ strike, truckers’ strike, bus drivers’ strike, civic workers’ strike, even tug boat crews can go on strike. And then the complaining. Oh, the rending of the clothing and the sobbing is heard far and wide! The inconvenience of it all! The terrible, terrible inconvenience! Yes, of course it’s annoying. Of course it’s disruptive. It is meant to be disruptive! But in a mild and entirely dull way. Have you considered the alternative to disruption, screwed up schedules, extra expenses, lost profits, lost wages? Do you know what strikes were like 100 years ago? Before the calm and ordered picket line, and before labour laws and arbitration de-fanged striking and lockouts, there was pretty much just violence. Vicious, lowgrade warfare between large industrial employers, governments and workers. Between the 1870s and the late 1920s, typical tactics employed across North America included: ❚ Open threats of violence ❚ Use of scab labour ❚ Hiring strikebreakers, which could include goons or company “police officers” ❚ Cutting off water and electricity in company towns ❚ Arson ❚ Bombings ❚ Assassinations ❚ Assassinations by arson or bombing ❚ Bringing in the army Consider the case of 5’4” Nova Scotia coal miner Bill Davis, killed when company police charged striking miners on horseback in 1925. The company was determined to break the union; the union had pledged to starve rather than give in. Then there was Ginger Goodwin, a Vancouver Island miner who was considered unfit for service in the First World War due to black lung. When he tried to organize a strike, he was mysteriously reclassified and

SIZZLIN’

r e m su sem s nsation

ordered to join up and ship out. He went on the lam and was shot dead in 1918. While labour organizers were often the targets of violence, industrialists were far from immune. Henry Clay Frick was a hated robber baron. During the Homestead Strike of 1892, he sent an army of 300 Pinkerton detectives to retake a factory that was being held by workers; nine men died in the shooting that followed. In an attempt at revenge, the anarchist activist Alexander Berkman shot and stabbed Frick, but failed to kill him. When I say “low-grade warfare” I mean warfare. The Battle of Matewan and the Ludlow Massacre were both armed conflicts involving hundreds if not thousands of people.

Letters

Where are their helmets?

Yes, of course it’s annoying. Of course it’s disruptive. It is meant to be disruptive! But in a mild and entirely dull way. In Canada, the On-To-Ottawa trek of 1935 devolved into a riot in Regina that left an unknown number dead. We have labour peace today largely because, after years of vicious attacks, governments gave in and established workplace health and safety laws, the eighthour day, minimum wages and other basic protections. Labour laws constrained strikes, but the barons of industry found that they could also no longer send in hired “private detectives” to beat and kill union leaders. So now we have a better world, one in which few strikes begin or end with violence, one in which even underpaid fastfood workers stage peaceful walkouts. So before you get too mad about those dastardly unions and those darned employers, take a deep breath. Nobody’s going to die, and that’s a new thing in labour relations. Matthew Claxton is a reporter and columnist with the Langley Advance, a sister paper to the Now.

A reader is upset that we published front-page photos from the opening of Cloverdale Youth Park that showed skateboarders without helmets. (Photo: GORD GOBLE)

The Editor, Re: “Skate or fly,” the Now, June 24. I just received my copy of the Now with the front page pictures “Skate or Fly”. I am very surprised you published those pictures. Not one of those people on skateboards is wearing a helmet or safety protection, including the police officer! Surely you could have found pictures of some wearing protection. Not a great example for our young people. Keith Wilson, Cloverdale

Surrey should host marathon again The Editor, I realize that the announcement to cancel the Surrey International World Music Marathon happened last March, however I feel the need to express how upset I am with that. My parents and I have ran this event the past two years that it has taken place and we really enjoyed it. I am a resident of Surrey and my parents are from North Delta.

Summer Burger Sensation. Try our divine Radical Bacon Cheeseburger Evergreen • Central City Scottsdale • White Rock Cloverdale www.gotorickys.com

This event was perfect in that was close to home and also fun. The music along the way was great motivation and the time of year was perfect – not too hot nor too cold. I would think an event like this would be good for a city, in that it is bringing people here from all over the world who enjoy running, promoting healthy lifestyles etc. Sure there were road closures – that goes without saying. So, some folks complain and that’s it? No more run? Cities larger than Surrey – much larger – hold marathons and close streets and the people whom reside in these cities deal with it and maybe even embrace it. Las Vegas shuts down the strip to hold an event, and events are held in New York, San Francisco, even downtown Vancouver. So I just can’t even understand how this can be a problem for Surrey. I woke up Sunday morning at 5 a.m. to run a half marathon from UBC to Stanley Park. It was a great route and there were streets closed and even half a bridge. It was a long way to travel. I would really like to do an event in my home city again. Jennifer Blair, Surrey

DEBATE Letters

Dangerous goods should steer clear of waterfront The Editor, Re: “Gate’s down but rail safety still on agenda,” the Now, June 24. Thank you to all the people who attended, participated and presented at the rally at White Rock’s “City by the Sea” on June 20. Special thanks to organizer Pat Petrula for putting this extremely important event together. The main idea that I took from this gathering is that rail safety, according to

Transport Canada and BNSF, means keeping people away from the tracks and therefore the beach, so that BNSF can put on more than the current 20 trains a day and increase the speeds to further increase their profits. The dangerous goods that Mayor Wayne Baldwin has been voicing concern over should never be going through such a pristine ecological and highly populated area. People with foresight are talking about

this foreshore of the Salish Sea at White Rock that serves all of the residents south of the Fraser, (Surrey, Langley,Cloverdale, Delta Abbotsford and more) as being a national treasure, one that should be preserved and cherished by all. Some think it should become a federal park. It is linked with the only other natural beach on the Semiahmoo Peninsula – Crescent Beach, which everyone (except those in Ottawa) knows is even more

endangered by the trains. Providing this parkway makes great sense. What we need is to link this area to the Mud Bay bikeway and eventually connect it up to Delta and beyond. We could call it the South Fraser Seawall and have something for taxpayers here that compares to the Stanley Park seawall. It’s something to think about. Susan Potzold, White Rock

The Editor, Re: “Gate’s down but rail safety still on agenda,” the Now, June 24. There are many people who object to the rail activity going past White Rock. I am not one of those people. I believe that those who move next to rail lines, highways, airports, harbours and farms – and benefit from the implicit lowered cost of living beside such things – have precisely zero cause to complain after they move in, and learn that industrial sites are used for industrial things. That said, I firmly object to a recent decision to fence off portions of public access to the boat launch at White Rock’s west beach. Who made the decision? I do not care. Neither do I care whether the rationale was for “safety” reasons, private property reasons, or any reasons. The beach is public land and anybody who tries to restrict the public’s access to public lands – whether Aboriginal, environmentalist, municipal, provincial, or federal busybodies – is flat-out wrong. I hold low regard for anybody at any level who tries to restrict public access to public property, and entirely support anybody who destroys such barriers.

Pride flag won’t fly at city hall Kristi Alexandra

Now contributor Twitter @kristialexandra

SURREY — City council heard on Monday night (June 23) that Surrey City Hall won’t be pulling the pride flag up one of its three flagpoles during the city’s pride week celebrations. As first reported in the Now, GLBT activist and Surrey resident Martin Rooney spoke out, enquiring why, in 15 years of celebrating pride in Surrey, the city had not officially flown the pride flag when other municipalities have been able to do so. In effort to address the concern, the city prepared a report to see whether or not federal or provincial flag protocol could be bypassed in this circumstance. The review, which was presented on Monday night, concluded that the city would continue only to fly the federal, provincial and city flag. “There was no vote against flying the pride flag,” said Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts. “We were reviewing our policy.” The decision was addressed in the corporate report, “thereby not allowing any public discussion,” according to Rooney. In an earlier interview with the Now, Rooney had said, “It’s 2014, and basically the hope of flying the flag is to tell everybody in Surrey that everyone is welcome.” Watts said that other municipalities may have extra flagpoles, which allows

Martin Rooney them to fly the pride flag while Surrey does not. Others have a “mish-mash of policies right across the board,” she said. “New West, Maple Ridge, Vancouver, Victoria… we still have no clue how they manage to pass it if this is supposed flag protocol,” said Rooney. Watts noted that to get an extra flagpole for community reasons, the price tag would be a hefty $200,000. “So, if that’s something that the community wants to fundraise for, we’ll participate in that and have that opportunity,” she said. Rooney does not believe that installing a fourth flagpole would cost as much as Mayor Watts claims. Watts and other city councillors maintain that an absence of the pride

flag at city hall does not necessarily denote intolerance for diversity. “With the pride week, they’ll be flying their flag inside city hall and they’ll also have a display up with information all week, with the upcoming fusion festival, they’ll be flying their flag beside 35 other countries,” Watts said, noting that the city is a gold sponsor for the pride event. Rooney has not been on the board for Surrey Pride Society for the past five years. While Rooney doesn’t represent the Surrey Pride Society, the group’s vice-president Shawn Ewing said she endorses the whole process and hopes to see the flag fly as well. “If the mayor wants the community to raise funds, I am keenly interested,” she said. “The decision last night was to keep the flagpoles in the official protocol capacity,” Mayor Watts said. She also maintains that the city did not breach protocol to have the Olympic flag flown during the 2010 Olympics but rather that it coincided with provincial protocol, since Surrey was an official training venue and celebration site of the 2010 Olympic Games. “The Olympic flag flew on the same pole, underneath the municipal flag,” said Rooney. “If you really want to do this, there’s your solution. However, last night policy was put in place that that solution wasn’t available.” kalexandra@thenownewspaper.com

Hepner, Marvin Hunt and Barinder Rasode as the slate’s council candidates. Hunt left his councillor position earlier this year after being elected the MLA for Surrey-Panorama in the 2013 provincial election, while Rasode split from Surrey First in April, citing disagreements with the slate. Hepner was first elected to Surrey council in 2005 and was subsequently re-elected in 2008 and 2011. Prior to her political career, Hepner worked as the city’s manager of economic development for more than 20 years before retiring and running for office in 2005. kalexandra@thenownewspaper.com With files from Christopher Poon

SOFI report

City of Surrey releases annual financial report SURREY — Employees of the City of Surrey took home nearly $148 million in 2013 in salaries alone. Clocking in at $147,886,518.16, a total of 805 employees made more than $75,000 per annum in 2013 according to the city’s recent Statement of Financial Information (SOFI) report. The top five grossing employees include city manager Vincent Lalonde (previously the general manager of city engineering) who earned $206,827.30 over the year, general manager of planning and development Jean Lamontagne who earned $207,586.53, general manager of parks, recreation and culture Laurie Cavan who earned $218,474.34, general manager of finance and technology Vivienne Wilke who earned $218,707.24 and now-retired city manager Murray Dinwoodie who earned $309,588.01 in his last year of service to the city. The five top-earners also took home over $210,000 collectively on top of their gross salaries in taxable benefits and “others.” That included payout of earned time for vacation, gratuity payments, and pay for performance, banked time and vehicle allowances. The highest grossing elected officials, however, were given a significantly smaller chunk of change from the city, with top earner Mayor Dianne Watts earning $122,478 in 2013, plus $14,356 in taxable and other benefits. The second highest paid elected official, councillor Mary Martin earned $67,427 over the year, and only $76 in taxable and other benefits, followed by councillors Judy Villeneuve with $67,426 and Barbara Steele with $67,425. The lowest grossing councillor was Marvin Hunt, making $62,052 in 2013. Hunt left Surrey city council to represent Surrey-Panorama as an MLA. The mayor and city council spent a collective $153,144 in expenses, not including remuneration and indemnities. In all, the city’s revenues totalled $788.5 million while its expenses came to $574.5 million in 2013. Kristi Alexandra

District accidentally emails out student information Christopher Poon

Now staff Twitter @Questionchris

SURREY — The Surrey school district is apologizing to parents and students after the personal information of about 250 students was mistakenly sent out as part of a school’s online newsletter. According to district spokesman Doug Strachan, a staff member at a Surrey school was sending out a letter to parents from the superintendent Monday afternoon when they inadvertently attached the wrong document.

While he was unable to say what the email contained, Strachan said, “The attachment contained what would be considered private information under the Privacy Act of about 250 students. It was not financial or medical in nature and beyond that that’s all I can say out of respect for the privacy.” Strachan was also unable to say which school was affected, but Global BC has reported that it was Clayton Heights Secondary and the information was related to student marks. As a result, the district’s privacy officer was notified of the incident who the informed the province’s privacy

commissioner. Strachan said he’s heard of a few parents contacting the district about the incident, and noted that so far everyone has seemed pretty good about it. “The ones I’m aware of the parents have been quite understanding, it appears to be a human error and they were understanding of that,” he said. Asked if there would be any disciplinary action resulting from the incident, Strachan said it would be unlikely. “The person who sent it out by accident feels extremely bad about it and it was clearly an inadvertent action.”

Teen dies in hit-and-run

SET FOR SUMMER.

SURREY — A 16-year-old Surrey motorcyclist was killed in a hit-and-run crash in Whalley just before 11 p.m. Tuesday. It happened at 96th Avenue and 123A Street. Witnesses told police the boy’s motorcycle crashed with a silver Honda Accord when the car turned left in front of him. The car kept going for roughly a block before the driver abandoned it and ran away. The teen died in hospital. A police dog couldn’t find the driver. “Obviously, the vehicle and documents left behind provides our officers with physical evidence that will be crucial as we commence our investigation,” Surrey RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet said. “Once again, by leaving the scene of an accident, a driver has elevated a Motor Vehicle Act investigation to a criminal matter and will have to suffer the consequences of that decision.” Meanwhile, a 47-year-old Surrey man who was struck down by a grey Honda Civic while attempting to cross King George Boulevard at 91st Avenue is expected to survive. “It was another case of jaywalking,” Surrey RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet said.

hile it may have been decommissioned more than 40 years ago, the White Rock train station will serve at least one more passenger later this fall. That passenger will be known as “The Passenger,” a bronze sculpture that was given the go-ahead by council Monday and will reside outside the city’s museum and archives building, formerly the train station. The sculpture is one of the projects that came out of the city’s Public Art Task Force struck at the beginning of this year, and will cost the city $80,000 from the public arts fund. The artist creating the piece will be Denis Klein, who was chosen after his submission, “The Passenger,” met all of the task force’s criteria. According to Eric Stepura, the city’s director of leisure services, that criteria included artist resume, the artistic merit and innovation of the proposed design as well as the artist’s ability to meet the city’s timeline and stay within budget. Klein’s design depicts a man waiting for a train, suitcase at his side while leaning on a bench. According to Klein’s Join us on Thursday, July 17

Stepura said the public’s ability to interact with the sculpture was a key factor in its selection, and that it also pays homage to the site’s legacy as a train station.

“It will serve to animate the plaza outside the White Rock train station and continue to brand the waterfront as a historical site of significance,” he wrote. The exact location of the sculpture remains to be determined. The sculpture is expected to be unveiled in November. cpoon@thenownewspaper.com

Council looks to explore money saved during strike

City may reimburse taxpayers after shutdown Christopher Poon

Now staff Twitter @Questionchris

WHITE ROCK — With the end of the city’s civic worker strike nearly a month ago, city council is exploring the possibility of reimbursing taxpayers for any money saved

Coun. Helen Fathers thanked staff for bringing the matter to the council’s attention during the strike, and reiterated that she hoped to see some sort of savings found during the number crunching. “Council discussed this right from the start,” she said, adding that it was the “right thing to do.” More than 100 of the city’s CUPE 402-01 workers went on strike May 12 after nearly a year of negotiation and being without

during the three-week job action. Coun. Grant Meyer introduced a notice of motion during Monday’s council meeting requesting staff to look into the matter. “This is quite simply regarding a possible rebate in the event that all the dust has settled, we might have a possible savings in tax,” he said. “A lot goes into that and there are labour savings. That’s the main cause for the motion here, to be on the up and up with taxpayers.”

a contract since December 2011. Services affected during the strike included garbage and waste collection, leisure services and roadwork and maintenance. All city buildings, save for White Rock City Hall, were shut down during the strike. At issue were long-term disability, and conditions of employment for part-time and casual workers. A deal was ratified on June 2. cpoon@thenownewspaper.com

Homicide

Con man’s international web of lies ends in Surrey

SURREY — Timothy Szabolcsi was a charming schemer who lived larger than life, scamming his way into different careers and five marriages on both sides of the Canadian border. But when Szabolcsi was found dead in South Surrey last Friday, not one of those woman was there to mourn him. Indeed, North Delta’s Sheri Brown, whose divorce from Szabolcsi was finalized a month and a half ago, said his ex-wives told her they were surprised it hadn’t happened years ago. “He was playing with people’s emotions and livelihoods. When you take and destroy people’s lives, one day you’re bound to run into somebody who will snap,” Brown said. Szabolcsi, 52, was found dead inside a home in the 2400-block of 156th Street, marking Surrey’s third homicide in five days. Police have released scant details about the murder, except to say the man was known to police, and did not respond to requests for comment about Szabolcsi’s past. But Brown, a realtor, says her ex-husband had lived a life based on cons and lies. He would flit across the border, using different names, and purport to be everything from a race car driver to a Canadian Air Force pilot

Timothy Szabolcsi with North Delta realtor Sheri Brown, whose divorce from the con man was recently finalized. Szabolcsi was killed in South Surrey last week. and a psychiatrist. “He was very charming,” Brown said. “He told me he played in the NHL for the Winnipeg Jets, that he was an ex-Beverly Hills psychiatrist. He told me he was trying to get his licence reinstated up here. It was all a lie.”

Brown, who fell in love with Szabolcsi and married him after a whirlwind romance in 2012, said she learned of his past after reading a story from 2007 about a man, who looked like her husband, on the Internet. It was at that time she also discovered his previous marriages and the fact he had six

children in the U.S. “The hardest thing is these kids. They never had any contact with him,” she said. “He leaves behind a trail of broken families, finances and children.” Brown estimates she spent $50,000 supporting Szabolcsi until she learned of his past and threw him out of her home – just four months after they were wed. Earlier this year, the two appeared on Dr. Phil’s TV show, in an episode titled: “Did she marry an impostor?” Szabolcsi, who appears via satellite in “an attempt to clear his name,” comes under fire from Dr. Phil about his credentials, with the TV host noting that Szabolcsi never completed his NASCAR application, nor is there a University of Budapest, which Szabolcsi said he attended. Brown said she had mixed emotions when she heard about the murder. “At one time, I did care for this person and you don’t wish that anyone goes this way,” Brown said. “But he lived a life that was dishonest and hurt a lot of people, so I believe he probably ran into someone who didn’t want their emotions or livelihood played with.”

Thousands of B.C. students will not get report cards

No end in sight to labour dispute, with summer school now endangered VANCOUVER — Thousands of students will not be getting report cards this year and provincial exams are being modified to make them easier to mark as teachers begin the second week of their full strike. Report cards have not been deemed an essential service, so teachers will not be required to complete them. Provincial exams were declared as essential, with teachers required to invigilate, but not mark, the Grade 10 and 11 provincials. “Based on concerns raised by a number of superintendents related to quality and validity of the marking for Social Studies 11 and English 10, the decision has been taken to alter the sections that students will be responsible for completing related to these two exams,” a letter to superintendents from a deputy education minister says. The changes mean students will mostly complete only multiple choice answers rather than written sections of these exams, making it easier to mark the exams.

Some students during a Surrey teachers rally held earlier this month. (File photo) Scores will be adjusted accordingly, the letter says. As far as final marks are concerned, the Labour Relations Board ruled Friday that the most recent Grade 10 and 11 marks would be reviewed by the classroom teachers, who must report any changes to the district. In effect, this means that

Grade 10 and 11 marks would stand as of the last date that marks were entered into the computer reporting system, unless the teacher makes an adjustment. Whether or how those grades will be communicated to parents remains up in the air, but the superintendent of schools in Surrey, B.C.’s largest district, said in a letter

that report cards are not possible under a full strike. “Unless there is some small miracle, the school year does seem to be all but over with the exception of writing the remaining provincial exams,” Jordan Tinney says in a letter to parents. “The information that we need to produce report cards is in the hands of teachers and they are on strike.” Tinney’s letter says a decision on summer school in Surrey will also be made this week. “If teachers are on strike and picket lines are up, there will be no summer school,” Tinney’s letter says. “We are all prepared and ready to go, but at this point, summer school is looking very tenuous. Some districts have already cancelled summer school. We will wait as late as possible to make that call.” B.C.’s teachers launched their provincewide strike last week, after 16 months of failed negotiations. The two sides are within one per cent on their wage offers (the government is offering seven per cent over six years, the BCTF wants eight per cent over five years). The BCTF wants a $5,000 per teacher signing bonus and the government is offering $1,200.

WHITE ROCK — There’s a new sound coming out of White Rock’s Coast Capital Playhouse, and it’s not just a revamped show tune. White Rock Players’ Club has teamed up with Alive Drive Interactive (ADI), an interactive media technology company spearheaded by veteran audio engineer Peter Young, to bring a broadcasted music series to the city, while utilizing the Johnston Road venue for a purpose other than live theatre. The series, called Music from the Coast, would be recorded using ADI’s Hubcast, a mobile broadcast facility equipped for recording, webcasting and content distribution. “Music from the Coast is a series of music concerts that we’re going to package for a TV show,” said Young, seated in the empty auditorium of the playhouse. “It’s a music series that gauges across a whole bunch of different genres, so it’s not just a country show, it’s not just a rock show.” Filmed during the theatre’s “dark days” – a day the playhouse isn’t being used for theatre productions – Young records and packages the concert to be viewed through the Hubcast. The public can purchase tickets to the live show and be part of the audience, while others can enjoy the show on a subscriptionbasis via the Internet. A live image of White Rock’s pier plays in the background of the small theatre, giving the illusion that you’re watching a show on the beach. Young, who’s extensive musical history includes sound-engineering Nickelback’s Live at Home DVD, Joe Satriani’s Live at the Grove and Megadeth’s That One Night: Live in Buenos Aires, wants to see the thriving White Rock arts and music community get

recognized. With his audio engineering and video background, as well as his invested interest in the White Rock community, he’s just the person to do it. “The whole idea of what we’re doing is to bring more awareness to the facility, bring more entertainment to the Peninsula and capture it where we can actually showcase White Rock from a tourist’s standpoint,” Young said. The first Music from the Coast episode featured musician Russell deCarle, known for fronting Canadian country group Prairie Oyster, which can be seen on Music from the Coast’s new website (Musicfromthecoast. com). The concert was recorded June 9 at the playhouse, on the set of the theatrical production Barefoot in the Park, which closed last Saturday night (June 21). One of the most important features of the concert series, Young says, is that ADI and the players’ club will partner with a non-profit organization for each show. “Every show that we do, we tie it to a nonprofit,” he said. “The tickets pay for the cost of filming, plus honorariums for the bands, then a percentage goes to the related charity.” Young expects to see the pilot series wrapped up by the end of the summer, with hopes that a sponsor and a network will take on the show for more episodes. “We can be an asset to the city and turn White Rock, not only to be a destination because of the great scenery but because of the amazing fine arts and music that come out of this place. It’s a great place to discover music,” Young said. “It just needs to get out there to the world.” The second episode of the concert series, “100 Days of Swing,” was held on Monday, June 23, featuring The Other Big Band and Vancouver Groove Orchestra at Coast Capital Playhouse, 1532 Johnston Rd. The show was presented by Semiahmoo Music Society.

ummer holidays came a bit early this year for school kids. By the time July rolls around, there will no doubt be plenty of parents looking for “educational” opportunities for the summer months. There are so many options to look at – something that has value and can fully engage and occupy active minds and bodies. Once again, Surrey Little Theatre is offering acting workshops for youth. The Act One Theatre Camp, a two-week, full-day camp filled with workshops on all aspects of stage production, will be facilitated by Loryn LeGear and Brigitte Seib. This is a terrific team. And it will surprise you what can be accomplished by the campers in only two weeks. Included topics are audition and improv techniques, scene studies and character analysis, acting 101, stage etiquette, backstage co-operation and team building, stage management, set design and scene painting, sound and light design, technical operation, props and costume design. This is a very packed program, for sure. The day camp runs Monday, July 21 to Thursday, July 31; week one is from Monday to Friday and week two is from Sunday to Thursday. The two-week camp will end with a showcase public performance on the evening of Thursday July 31. Registration for the camp is limited to 16 participants aged 13 to 18. All participants have the opportunity to perform onstage and will also be responsible for backstage duties. The cost of the two-week program is $285,

every day and dinner on the evening of the performance. All activities will be held at Surrey Little Theatre, 7027 184th St. That’s at the top of Clayton Hill, one-half block north of Fraser Highway. For registration forms and more information, contact program facilitator Brigitte Seib via email, brigitte.seib@ surreylittletheatre.com. Brigitte is one of the many dedicated volunteer talents who keep Surrey Little Theatre going. She has been recognized by Theatre BC and the Community Theatre Coalition for her work in set design and also as a producer and director. If I were in the right age category, I would definitely sign up for this camp. What a bargain – and you don’t have to sleep in tents, suffer sunstroke or get bitten by bugs! Well, maybe you might get bitten by the acting bug. Summer theatre is made to be outdoors – even in our unpredictable climate. Theatre Under The Stars (TUTS) is rotating performances of Shrek: the Musical with Legally Blond: the Musical. This 75-year old tradition of open-air theatre in Stanley Park’s Malkin Bowl is a summer fixture. Check out the schedule at Tuts.ca. Just fair warning: It is outside, after dark, and the real bugs do bite. Go prepared. Bard in the Valley has about 70 years less tradition than Theatre Under The Stars, but Langley is set to prove outdoor theatre can be successful in the Fraser Valley as well as in the city. For its fifth anniversary, Bard in the Valley is presenting William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar. Directed by Darcy J. Knopp and produced by Diane Gendron, this show is, once again, preparing to give Langley audiences an exciting, free outdoor theatre experience.

‘Bands, BBQ & Beer Bash’ Saturday in South Surrey Tom Zillich

Country band Me & Mae is among those performing Saturday, June 28 at Going Viral Productions’ “Bands, BBQ & Beer Bash,” a concert to be held on property at 2225 184th Street in South Surrey.

Now staff Twitter @tomzillich

“We’re not looking for this to be a huge event, and the focus is on raising money for the BCCMA,” Cousineau said. “We’ve been sending out invitations to all the neighbours, and we’ve been talking to some of them already, and they’re aboard and love the idea. That was part of our proposal to the city as well, to invite all the neighbours and make sure that everybody is well aware of what’s going on. Fortunately, we have a

big enough property that it won’t be too much of annoyance for them.” Liquor service won’t include hard alcohol, he added. “The focus isn’t to have people get too hammered, it’s supposed to be a social event.” The event will feature performances by Me & Mae, Jim Abbott & the Septic Sam Project, The Jardines, Merv Tremblay, Terry Brennan, alt-rock band YUCA and others.

Smile.

“We’re new members of the BCCMA, so it’s great,” said Shawn Meehan, guitarist and singer with the five-piece band Me & Mae. “All proceeds go to them for events they do and their work to support artists. They help in a lot of ways.... It should be a lot of fun.” Cousineau does marketing and promotions for Jim Abbott and other musicians through his Going Viral Productions company. The plan, Cousineau said, is to make this Bash an annual gathering. “It’s pretty early to tell right now, and it depends on the success of this event, for sure, and where the artists are at and the time involved,” he said. “It would be a nice thing to have every year, yeah. It’s always nice to be able to network with people in the industry, that kind of thing.” Event details are online at Gvpbash.com.

‘Arts 2014’ at Surrey Art Gallery SURREY — Opening this weekend is Arts 2014, the annual juried exhibit presented at Surrey Art Gallery by the Arts Council of Surrey. A wide variety of works from 60 artists were chosen for the summer-long art show, to be launched Friday evening (June 27) at the gallery, at Bear Creek Park. Four Surrey-based artists were awarded first-place honours, including Chloe Juwon Kim (in the painting/ works on paper category), Helma Sawatzky (photography), Jeanette Sirois (drawing and mixed media) and Cora Li-Leger (3D works and fibre arts). Jurors John Cranswick, Liane Davison and Stephanie Jonsson reviewed 166 works submitted by more than 90 artists. “This was a challenging task given the eclectic range of the styles, media and subjects,” the jurors stated. “We were impressed with the calibre of pieces proposed by the talented artists from across Surrey and elsewhere in the Lower Mainland.” Exhibit details are at Surrey.ca/artgallery.

ABOVE: Helma Sawatzky’s “Construction Sites Phase II: Fisherman’s Wharf.” FAR LEFT: Jeannette Sirois’ “Defying Age.” LEFT: Genevieve Pfeiffer’s “The Painter, The Poet and The Song.”

Summer sports

Everybody into the (outdoor) pool!

Summer is here and it’s time to get out and enjoy this special time of the year. Over the next three months the Now will offer you some unique sporting ways to experience summer without leaving town. Michael Booth

Now staff Twitter @boothnow

On a hot summer day, nothing is more refreshing than a dip in the pool. Canada Day is the unofficial kickoff to summer and the City of Surrey is doing its part by taking the locks off their popular outdoor pools. Surrey’s network of outdoor aquatic facilities has been serving residents for more than 40 years and they remain a go-to destination for kids of all ages. “Swimming in an outdoor pool is a different experience,” said Jeff Holland, aquatics facilities manager for the City of Surrey. “The outdoor pools are awesome and they have a lot of features and generate a lot of excitement. The outdoor pools represent a different type of swimming. When the sun is shining on a beautiful day and you are in the pool, it’s a very pleasant experience.

It’s also a great place to swim for the day and hang out and have fun with your friends in the sun. “Most of our users are the kids and the outdoor pools represent a great opportunity to connect with the youth in our community and give them a chance to see the services that we offer. It’s also a great place to swim for the day and hang out and have fun with your friends in the sun.” Surrey operates a total of eight outdoor pools scattered throughout the city and each is located in busy parks for maximum exposure. The pools at Greenaway, Sunnyside and Bear Creek have been open since May 15 while the remainder — Hjorth Road, Unwin Park, Kwantlen Park, Holly and Port Kells — will open this weekend (June 28). Surrey’s outdoor pools have been a

The calendar still says June but this trio of swimmers got a head start on summer with a plunge into the outdoor pool at Bear Creek Park this week. Surrey’s eight outdoor pools and another in North Delta will all be operational this weekend. (Photo: KEVIN HILL) highlight of summer in the city since the 1960s and thousands of local residents have learned to swim in the facilities. Greenaway pool in Cloverdale is also where Canadian Olympian Brittany Reimer took her first swimming lessons. “The outdoor pools were all built in the late 60s and early 70s so there are generations of families in Surrey who have been swimming in the outdoor pools,” Holland said. “A lot of people really care for that history and tradition and they like to see their kids taking swim lessons in the same pool that they did when they were younger.” Each pool offers swimming lessons in the morning followed by public swims in the afternoon and evenings. Summer swim clubs operate out of Bear Creek, Sunnyside and Greenaway pools, while others are used for birthday party rentals and summer camps. Depending on location, the

swimming lessons offered can include life guarding and life saving programs. Hjorth Road and Bear Creek also have dive tanks. Of course one of the biggest drawing cards for the pools in addition to the lure

of cool water on a hot day is the price for admission: free. There is no charge for the daily public swim sessions in Surrey’s outdoor facilities, a practice that keeps the pools busy when the weather gets warmer.

‹ from page 53 “Surrey is one of the few communities that still has free swimming at all of our outdoor pools,” Holland said. “Public swim times are offered seven days a week all the way through the summer until Labour Day. The pools are geographically located all across the city so a lot of people can walk or travel a very short distance to get to the facilities. It’s free to swim and that makes it very accessible to everybody.” Needless to say, free public swimming on a hot day is a very popular option for families. “We get thousands of people using our outdoor pools each year, both for the swimming lessons and the public swims,” Holland said. “On the rainy days they can be a bit quiet, but when the summer sun breaks out and the temperature creeps into the high 20s, the public swims are really popular. There are lineups to get into all the pools, sometimes all the way out the door and along the fence.” Hours and programs vary by pool. For more information, visit www.surrey.ca. Delta Parks and Recreation operates one outdoor facility in North Delta next to the North Delta Recreation Centre. The pool is also heavily used with swimming lessons and a summer swim club in addition to the public swim times. Visit www.delta.ca for more information on programs and pool schedules.

Classic cars

The birth of the ponycar Jeff Melnychuk

The 1965 2+2 fastback had a unique mix of great looks and functionality as the back seat folded into a basically flat load floor for more cargo space.

wheelbasemedia.com

It’s a big moment. In April, Ford celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Mustang, but not technically this Mustang. The coupe came first and the swoopy fastback model didn’t actually arrive until the fall of ‘64. The Mustang has become a near mystical icon for generations of drivers needing a sporty departure from everyday rank-and-file transportation. Its combination of looks, performance and price have kept it going strong where others have tried and ultimately faltered. The original coupe and convertible Mustangs were churned out by the hundreds of thousands. But it was the later-to-arrive and slower-selling fastback that has come to represent the era of the “ponycar.” Proof of that fact appeared in the fall of 2004 when a completely new ‘05 Mustang appeared with — you guessed it — a fastback roofline as one of its key styling ingredients. Same goes for the new 2015 model.

The original coupe and convertible Mustangs were churned out by the hundreds of thousands. The first Mustang 2+2, as it was officially branded, arrived almost without warning in October of 1964, six months following the launch of the coupe and convertible styles. As with the others, it was available in no-frills basic trim with a meek 120-horsepower sixcylinder engine matched to a three-speed manual gearbox. By far the most popular choice was the optional 289 cubic-inch V8 offered in 200, 225 and highoutput 271-horsepower strengths and with a floor-shifted, four-speed manual transmission or three-speed automatic. There were also some special 2+2 touches, including larger wheels, standard front bucket seats and a rear bench that could be folded flat for those times when extra cargo space was required. A pass-through opening into the trunk allowed skis or other bulky items to fit inside, which made the fastback easy to live with. Since the 2+2 had no rear “quarter” windows like the coupe, the rear-pillar-mounted louvers provided fresh air for back-seat riders. A GT option package, available on all Mustangs beginning in mid-1965, gave the fastback even more appeal. Along with the high-output 289 engine, the GT came with a firmer suspension, quicker steering, front disc brakes, extra gauges (including a tachometer), unique wheels, grille-mounted fog lamps and racing stripes that extended along the rocker panels. By far the hottest — and rarest — of the see MUSTANG › page 64

Mustang fastbacks were the 516 GT-350 models constructed by Cobra sports car builder Carroll Shelby. These specially prepared quasi-race cars might have been few in number, but for the enthusiast crowd they were the absolute ultimate. More importantly, they helped position the fastback among performance buffs as the most desired Mustang in the herd. Professing to be a four-passenger car, Mustangs in general, and the 2+2 in particular, had back seats that were best used for small children or pets. It hardly mattered to anyone contemplating a Mustang purchase that rearward accommodations were little more than an afterthought. Buyers, especially the baby boomer crowd, loved the Mustang based on power and looks alone. In its first complete year, Ford sold an astounding 559,451 Mustangs. Of that total, a little more than 77,000 — nearly 14 per cent of production — were fastbacks. Interestingly, and without explanation, while Mustang sales topped the 600,000 level in 1966, the fastback dropped to less than half its first-year mark. In fact, the more expensive convertible outsold the fastback by nearly two to one. Still, the die had been cast. Subsequent Mustangs with their cascading rooflines would become famous for packing the most potent engines in Ford’s arsenal. Today, the fastback that began it all is considered a highly-prized collectable for its fetching beauty. And the current-generation Mustang’s styling has already made it a winner with a new generation of fans who worship its intoxicating mix of heritage and horsepower.

White Rock commits $20,000 to save trolley service Christopher Poon

Now staff Twitter @questionchris

WHITE ROCK — With funds apparently having run out prematurely, the city has stepped in with $20,000 to keep White Rock’s free trolley service alive. Started as a collaboration between Tourism White Rock, the White Rock Business Improvement Association and the city, the trolley service offers free rides through four of the city’s main districts. However, Coun. Helen Fathers said she was recently alerted that Tourism White Rock had a shortfall of $20,000 to fund the trolley. Saying the BIA was unable to share the funding responsibilities at this time, Fathers wondered if the city might be able to step in to keep the service going. But before the council approved anything, Coun. Alan Campbell said he was disappointed in the BIA for not doing their bit as a partner. “I come from a time when you had a handshake and agreement and you carried on and paperwork came later,” said Campbell, who sits as council’s representative at Tourism White Rock. “We sat down as two individual groups and

The ‘Now’ was there last summer when sponsors and members of Tourism White Rock kicked off free rides on the Vancouver Trolley Bus through White Rock. (File photo) discussed what they wanted to support and didn’t support. $20,000 is extremely important, and I would say the trolley would have a lot to do with business improvement.” Coun. Bill Lawrence, the city’s representative at the BIA agreed with Campbell and said he, too, was disappointed

in the BIA’s lack of support. Lawrence then went on to praise the impact the trolley has had on the community. “It’s provided an opportunity for visitors to visit all around White Rock,” he said. With the trolley service expected to expire July 1, Mayor Wayne Baldwin suggested council commit the $20,000 upfront rather

than waiting for a staff report, which would have to be at the next meeting on July 14. Council approved the motion unanimously. White Rock BIA president and former city councillor Lynne Sinclair said while the BIA funded a large part of the trolley in its pilot year last year, that commitment was not meant to carry over to this year. “We’re actually meeting tonight to talk about that. We’ve always been in discussions around it but the concerns we had was the disproportionate amount we were being asked to fund,” said Sinclair. “We did it last year as a one-time only thing but were very clear that we had to get more sponsors and not pay $20,000 ourselves because it’s much more of a tourism/city initiative than it is a business initiative. It doesn’t even go in all of our business improvement areas necessarily.” Sinclair said there is still a chance that the BIA would be able to help fund the trolley service, but just not in the amount that was being requested. “I think there always was that chance but I think there was a rush and I’m glad the city is putting forward the funds because I think it’s more a city initiative,” she said.

SOUTH SURREY — James Cousineau’s acreage here will be a gathering place for fans of country music this weekend. The inaugural “Bands, BBQ and Beer Bash” is on Saturday (June 28), with several bands and solo artists slated to perform outdoors from 3 to 10 p.m. The event has been organized to raise funds for British Columbia Country Music Association, or BCCMA. “You know, we’re all members of the BCCMA and we know there’s a lot of good work the association does,” Cousineau told the Now. “At the last AGM, the reserves were a little low so we thought of doing something special, maybe having the association members do an event like this because the association does so much for the artists.” On Tuesday, a crew was building a stage for the day-long concert, expected to draw around 300 people to a 30-acre parcel of land at 2225 184th Street. Tickets are $20 when purchased in advance and $30 at the gate. Prize draws, a silent auction and other fundraisers are part of the event. “We’re not looking for this to be a huge event, and the focus is on raising money for the BCCMA,” Cousineau said. “We’ve been sending out invitations to all the neighbours, and we’ve been talking to some of them already, and they’re aboard already and love the idea. That was part of our proposal to the city as well, to invite all the neighbours and make sure that everybody is well aware of what’s going on. Fortunately, we have a big enough property that it won’t be too much of

annoyance for them.” Liquor service won’t include hard alcohol, he added. “The focus isn’t to have people get too hammered, it’s supposed to be a social event.” The event will feature performances by Me & Mae, Jim Abbott & the Septic Sam Project, The Jardines, Merv Tremblay, Terry Brennan, alt-rock band YUCA and others. “We’re new members of the BCCMA, so it’s great,” said Shawn Meehan, guitarist and singer with the five-piece band Me & Mae. “All proceeds go to them for events they do and their work to support artists. They help in a lot of ways.... It should be a lot of fun.” Cousineau does marketing and promotions for Jim Abbott and other musicians through his Going Viral Productions company. The plan, Cousineau said, is to make this Bash an annual gathering. “It’s pretty early to tell right now, and it depends on the success of this event, for sure, and where the artists are at and the time involved,” he said. “It would be a nice thing to have every year, yeah. It’s always nice to be able to network with people in the industry, that kind of thing.” Event details are online at Gvpbash.com, or call 778-908-2811.

Future school at Willoughby Slope in limbo B.C.’s Ministry of Education isn’t committing any funds toward the construction of a new secondary school in the area Troy Landreville

Langley Advance Twitter @LangleyAdvance

LANGLEY — There’s trouble on the horizon on the Willoughby Slope. Langley’s most densely populated area is facing “significant middle school and secondary school enrolment pressure,” according to a report from Langley School District secretary-treasurer David Green. At the same time, enrolment at secondary schools in Aldergrove, Walnut Grove, Brookswood, D.W. Poppy and Langley are either stable, or declining. The enrolment pressure on the Willoughby Slope is exacerbated by the fact that the Langley district has not received approval from the Ministry of Education for funding to acquire land and build a secondary school on the Willoughby Slope, the report reads. Currently, the Ministry is indicating it has no approval from Government’s Capital Planning Secretariat for funding to support projects in the district’s fiveyear capital plan, according to Green’s report, adding that the Ministry has informed districts that support for projects would be stronger the more a district can bring to the table, particularly the recent announcement that districts have to bring at least 50 per cent of the project cost to new projects. But time is ticking in Willoughby. The construction of a secondary school is a minimum 42- to 48-month process, from design to construction completion. So even if a district is green-lighted to start building a new high school, the earliest it would open its doors is September 2018. So with no secondary school on the immediate horizon, the Langley district is considering relocating Willoughby Slope students to other Langley schools, as the district would continue to struggle with

With no secondary school on the immediate horizon, Langley school district is considering relocating Willoughby Slope students to other Langley schools. (stock photo) accommodating the middle school and secondary population growth in that area. Langley Secondary is currently operating under capacity, however D.W. Poppy and Aldergrove have excess capacity but could accommodate students. Walnut Grove and Brookswood are currently operating at, or near, capacity. “It’s clear from this report that the secretary-treasurer has shared that we still have more work to do,” Trustee Alison McVeigh said, during a school board meeting last week at Langley city hall. “We have not yet been able to secure something on the slope. I think it’s important as a board that we continue to advocate for that and that parents continue to advocate for that, because the need is there and it’s not going away. We’re struggling desperately to get one (school built) while in fact we need several more over several years.” McVeigh added that “we have kids that we need to be concerned about. We have

a huge overcrowding problem on the Willoughby slope. It’s going to get worse before it gets better.” Board vice-chair Rob McFarlane expressed his disappointment about the lack of government funding. “I believe we put forward a compelling case of why one (new secondary school) should be approved and built, and how it could be done in an affordable way, both for ourselves and for the Ministry of Education,” he said. “While they haven’t said no, which is typical of these processes, they haven’t said yes yet. I am concerned about the prospect about sending students from the Willoughby slope to further distances within our school district.” Trustee Cecilia Reekie added, “Our district submitted our five-year capital plan and in that plan was funding for land acquisition and construction for a new secondary school.” Reekie said the board and district’s About 15 years ago in pre-MP3 player days, the Fort looked into creating an audio tour, and even had a script drafted, but the technology wasn’t quite up to scratch for the kind of experience they had in mind.

leadership team met with Minister of Education Peter Fassbender and the community’s MLAs expressing their concerns and the urgency for the approval of the capital plan, “but to no avail.” “I believe if we were to be approved this year for any of our capital projects, that would have already happened,” Reekie said. “I do not remain hopeful that the funding will come anytime in the immediate future. Very frustrating and disappointing to be in this position.” Currently the students on the Willoughby Slope are serviced by five elementary schools (three K-7 schools and two K-5 schools) and one secondary school. The three K-7 elementary schools are Lynn Fripps (which houses grade 6 and 7 students from R.C. Garnett), Willoughby and Langley Meadows. The two K-5 schools are RC Garnett and Richard Bulpitt. The secondary school, R.E. Mountain Secondary (REM), has a Ministry operating capacity of 725 students but is currently over capacity, with an enrollment of 1,153 students who are accommodated by the addition of 16 portable classrooms. Yorkson Creek Middle School, with an operating capacity of 750 students, is currently under construction and will open in September 2014. When the middle school opens all the elementary schools will become K-5 and although there will be initial enrolment declines in 2014 for the K-7 schools, growth is projected to continue for the foreseeable future in all K-5 schools, with the exception of RC Garnett and Langley Meadows. When Yorkson Creek opens, R.E. Mountain will transition from a Grade 812 school to a grade configuration of 9-12. After an initial decline in 2014 with the transfer of Grade 8 students to the middle school, continued steady growth is expected to occur at the school, rising to over the 1,700 student mark over 10 years. The school has 16 portable classrooms on site to accommodate the student population of 1,125. In order to house 400 to 500 more students, another 13 to 16 portables would be required. The physical site on which the school is located cannot accommodate these additional portables.

Now, with new funding approved last winter, they have started again, digging into the old script and writing new material. Visitors can now pick up a device that resembles an oversized TV remote control and carry it around the

Fort. Numbers at various buildings, when punched into the device, give them different pieces of the audio, so they can wander and experience the Fort in any order they choose. During June, the use of the audio tour is free.

Closing-weekend party planned at Clova Cinema Tom Zillich

Now staff Twitter @tomzillich

CLOVERDALE — The Clova plans to go out with a party. The long-established movie theatre is closing this summer, and operators have announced a couple of closing-weekend events for Aug. 1 and 2. Cult-classic film Rocky Horror Picture Show will be shown at 9:30 p.m. Friday, Aug. 1 and again early Saturday at 12:30 a.m., followed later that day (at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 2) by a concert featuring AbraCadabra, a local ABBA tribute band. “We are slowly announcing all the events taking place that weekend,” Clova operators wrote in an email to subscibers. “We will be adding more events as they come. “Tickets for all events are on sale now at our box office any time we’re open.” For the Rocky Horror screenings, costumes are highly encouraged and prop bags will be sold at the theatre for a minimum donation of $5. Event details are at Theclova.com.

A concert by ABBA tribute band AbraCadabra will take place at Clova Cinema on Saturday, Aug. 2, as part of closing-weekend events there. In March, Crossridge Church announced that it had taken ownership of the landmark building that houses the movie theatre. Lead pastor Lee Francois indicated that operators of the church are leaning

toward having the theatre operate as something of a community venue when not being used for church-related functions. Over the past couple of years, Clova operator Craig Burghardt and his Clova

“family” haven’t had much success raising the tens of thousands of dollars needed to upgrade the theatre to digital film technology. “Sometime this year, the curtain will draw and the show will end for good,” Burghardt wrote in a message to customers on the Clova’s Facebook page in early March. For the past six years, Burghardt has been on a month-to-month lease of the building that houses the theatre. “We have made several attempts to secure a mutually agreeable, long-term agreement with the owners which we felt was important to have before spending $60,000+ on a new projector,” Burghardt wrote. “I say ‘attempts’ because we have failed.” The Clova has shared the building with Crossridge Church for the past three years. Burghardt has owned and operated the Clova for the past 17 years; the theatre first opened in the 1940s. “It has been a wonderful and joyous 17+ years, with many memories, thanks to all of you supportive patrons,” Burghardt wrote in his message to customers in March.

Cloverdale

Fire fundraiser raises $30K

CLOVERDALE — In the aftermath of the massive barn fire in Langley that resulted in the loss of 17 standardbreds, the horse racing community banded together June 17 to raise $30,000 in support of the impacted families. “More than 200 people opened their hearts and wallets in an emotional show of support,” said Ken Stratton, general manager of Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino. “The horse racing population can be very competitive on track, but when it comes to lending a helping hand in the time of need, these people are incredible. “Staff at Fraser Downs and Harness Racing BC stepped up to the plate by working 15-hour days to make this happen. Everyone volunteered their time for both the silent and live auctions, resulting in 100 per cent of the proceeds going to the cause.” Silent auction items – including suite tickets to the Elton John concert at Rogers Arena, a Vancouver Canucks’ jersey autographed by the entire

team, a Grey Cup leather jacket and a beautifully framed commemorative picture from the opening ceremonies of the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver – contributed to help the recovery and rebuilding process created by the fire. Great Canadian Gaming Corporation properties Hastings Racecourse in Vancouver, and Ontariobased Georgian Downs and Flamboro Downs collected cash donations during race days at their respective sites. Of the total $30,000 raised, $10,000 was donated by Fraser Downs and Great Canadian Gaming Corporation while the remainder of the funds were collected through the silent-auction event and fundraising efforts at the tracks. At one point, veteran Fraser Downs trainer and driver Dave Hudon and wife Kelly were patrolling the unfamiliar thoroughbred facility at Hastings raising funds through a 50-50 draw. “This tragedy had a profound effect on many members of the horse racing community, keeping

Concert fundraiser

‘Gone Country’ headliner Brownlee is a man on move With the release of his new album, The Fighter, Langley-based country singer/songwriter Chad Brownlee has been bouncing back and forth across the country in the past few weeks. The tour has included multiple stops. In a single day, Brownlee was in Nova Scotia, Toronto, Calgary, and back home in Langley for the Tim Hortons Camp Day, which raised Chad Brownlee $11.8 million to help send underprivileged kids to camp. Last week, Brownlee was in Fredericton to perform a concert, and in Toronto again a few days later to scoop up two songwriting awards at the SOCAN Awards. Brownlee will headline the second annual Gone Country outdoor concert at Cloverdale’s Millennium Park Amphitheatre. The all-country cancer fundraiser, set for Saturday, July 26, will also feature Brett Kissel, One More Girl, Karen Lee Batten, The Washboard Union and DJ Jaxon Hawks. The event is organized by Twins Cancer Fundraising, started by Cloverdale-raised twins Jamie and Chris Ruscheinski. Details are at Twinscancerfundraising.com.

in mind there was no insurance for the assets lost in the fire,” Stratton said. “To see people come together in this fashion was an emotional experience for all of us.” The fire occurred Sunday, June 1 at a rural property on 224th Street in South Langley.

Ken Stratton, general manager of Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino in Cloverdale, holds an autographed Vancouver Canucks’ jersey, a silent-auction item that helped raise funds for the families impacted by a recent barn fire in Langley.

The horses were mainly two-and three-year-old standardbred harness racing horses, as well as a miniature pony. The race horses were owned by Rick Mowles of JJJ Stables. A handful of his horses were reportedly racing in Alberta or Ontario and thus avoided the fire.
