Event Friday, Sept. 26 in Fort Langley

Comedy show to benefit suicide-prevention efforts FORT LANGLEY — Robin Williams’s suicide brings to light the reality that even the funniest people in the world might not be laughing on the inside. As a tribute to the comedy legend, Chief Sepass Theatre’s manager Kevin Statham is hosting a fundraiser to generate “much needed” money for Suicide Prevention, Education and Counselling (SPEAC), a Surrey-based program providing counselling services to children and youth in Langley, Surrey and White Rock. “I just knew I needed to contribute in some Kwasi Thomas way,” said Statham. “When Robin Williams passed away a few weeks ago, I saw a lot of people voicing their sadness through social media. I did that as well, but I wanted to do something more than post a photo on Facebook with a sad emoticon. In that moment, I decided to create something that will hopefully have a positive effect on

a local level.” At least half dozen Vancouver comedians are going to be performing at what Statham dubbed “LOL For Life,” at the Fort Langley theatre on Friday, Sept. 26, at 8 p.m. The lineup includes Patrick Maliha, Sunee Dhaliwal, John Beuhler, Jamie Hutchinson, Kwasi Thomas and Katie-Ellen Humphries. Tickets are $20 and available in advance at Northerntickets. com, with proceeds going to the SPEAC program that provides suiciderisk assessment, urgent response, and shortterm counselling for children and youth. SPEAC is grateful for the partnership, said senior program manager Nancy Orlikow. “It helps to promote and spread awareness of the significant need for more resources for our children and youth in our communities who are affected by or are at risk for suicide,” she said. “It is very important that people understand the scope of the need, but also that prevention of suicide is entirely possible and that programs like ours do save lives.” For more information on SPEAC, visit Options.bc.ca.

support system, as well as the couple’s grown children Alicia, 42, and Joshua, 39, along with three grandchildren. “Indomitable is the word,” Harvey said, describing his wife’s fortitude. “People call her ‘Miracle Margie’ and it’s amazing. She’s helped an awful lot of people.” That’s why at the Langley fundraiser, she wore the Canadian Cancer Society National Medal of Courage, awarded in 1999 - so she can serve as an example to others in similar situations. “We live our life and we live well,” Harvey said. “I think about it almost every day,” Margie added, about her bouts with cancer. “I’m grateful that I’m a grandparent – I never thought that I would end up being be that. I’ve been going through this now for 22 years. I’ve always been positive. I’ve just never let the other thought get into my mind very much. Sometimes that works, sometimes that doesn’t work, and in my case, it works.” Harvey, a theatre instructor who retired early so he and Margie “can live our lives to the very best,” wrote a song, inspired by the namesake of the 34th annual fundraiser. It’s called “Ballad of Terry Fox.”

LANGLEY — Cancer keeps picking a fight with Margie Ostroff. And the 70-year-old mom and grandma’s response has been, time and time again: bring it on. Margie and her husband Harvey, from the Ocean Park neighbourhood in Surrey, took part in the Langley City Terry Fox Run on Sunday, Sept. 14. She soldiers on, looking very healthy considering she’s battled cancer five times in her life. It started with breast cancer when she was 48. Three years later, she developed liver metastasis from breast cancer. The very next year, she dealt with ovarian cancer. Three years after that, she had a relapse of ovarian cancer. Finally, four years ago, at 66, she battled breast cancer again. “All of this is due to the BRCA1 gene that I have,” Margie said at Douglas Park, just seconds before the run/walk/roll for cancer research got underway. According to the Canadian Cancer Society, mutations in the genes BRCA1 (breast cancer gene 1) and BRCA2 (breast cancer gene 2) increase a woman’s risk of developing breast or ovarian cancer. BRCA mutations account for about five per cent of all breast cancers and four-to11 per cent of all ovarian cancers. Despite this, a fighting spirit has helped Margie conquer her cancer battles. “I always have a positive outlook, and I always just think that I am going to make it even when other people tell me I’m not going to make it,” she said. “The chemo(therapy) always seems to be successful and doesn’t make me feel sick.” All along the way, Harvey has been Margie’s

Beekeepers have a field day – and results sweeter than ever Tereza Verenca

Now contributor Twitter @tverenca

SOUTH SURREY — The Surrey Beekeepers Association held a “field day” last weekend in order to get their hives winter-ready. Results were sweeter than ever, with a buzzing queen bee and lots of larvae on hand at the hives, located on 29A Avenue. The last step was making sure there was enough honey to carry them through until spring. “It’s such a fascinating world to look at and study,” said President Don Carter, who added field days are held twice a year. “It gives us a chance to go in there and troubleshoot.” The association is also looking to get its membership back in the triple digits after seeing a decline over the years. “We’ve had a lot more new members this year, but right now we’re sitting at 55. At one time, we were over 200 strong,” he said. Group vice-president Thomas Schmitz added given an ailing bee population, belonging to a club like this is important to maintaining their livelihood. “If you have mentorship, you stand to be more successful in taking care of your bees, than if you just jump right in. We always bring speakers in with new ideas and research.” Those who attend the info session also learn about best practices, like nutrition. “If our bees have a McDonald’s diet, just sugar and water, then they’re not that healthy. If there’s habitat to feed on, like flowers and vegetables, then they do a lot better,” Schmitz said. The association also makes house calls to anyone who has a swarm problem. Right now, the City of Surrey allows residents to have up to four bee colonies on their property.

If our bees have a McDonald’s diet, just sugar and water, then they’re not that healthy. If there’s habitat to feed on, like flowers and vegetables, then they do a lot better. “You can do it in your backyard. The thing is, you have to be respectful, you can’t put it up against the fence facing into your neighbour’s yard,” Carter said. As of late, honey bees have been dwindling in numbers due to factors like parasites, pesticides and severe climate change. Last week, a Simon Fraser University professor unveiled a new compound that mitigates the effect mites have on the nectar-feeding insects.

SURREY — Darpan magazine’s Extraordinary Achievement Awards gala was all glitz and glamour Friday, as the South Asian community came out to celebrate and recognize some extraordinary individuals. But the red carpet and sparkly attire did not faze Anuradha Koirala, the evening’s keynote speaker. The 65-year-old woman was draped in a modest ivory gown, accessorized by red bangles and a red bindi. However, there’s nothing simple about the type of work Koirala does back home in Nepal. For the last two decades, the Kathmandu native has been trying to eradicate the sex trade through the establishment of Maiti Nepal. The nonprofit organization offers numerous services, including legal advice, antiretroviral therapy for HIV patients and shelter for those seeking refuge. It also patrols the India-Nepal border for any out-of-character activity. “Sixteen-thousand people are trafficked from Nepal each year in different forms, whether that’s labour or entertainment. Since 1993, we have managed to help 25,000 women,” Koirala said in an interview with the Now Monday. The idea to create Maiti Nepal came after Koirala escaped a violent marriage that resulted in three miscarriages. The deciding moment was when Koirala took in Geeta, an HIV-positive woman, 20, who had nowhere to turn. “There was a non-profit next to my house dealing with trafficking victims, but they didn’t have a shelter, so they asked me if I would take her.” Despite having only a two-bedroom home (Koirala also has a son), Geeta fit right in. It wasn’t until a few nights into her stay that Koirala was woken up by her new guest. “She would say, ‘Listen to me, this is what happens there. This is how I was forced into the brothel, and how I had to entertain five to 25 men a day.’ It was very sad, but then I knew I had to do something,” she said.

(Photos: GORD GOBLE) Having little financial support from her family, Koirala sold everything she owned and quit her job as an English teacher. “People thought I was crazy, asking ‘Why is this woman switching from a teaching career to this?’ It was definitely one of the challenges I had to overcome.”

The first shelter had only two rooms but housed nearly 70 children. “Basically I would sleep in the corridor and they would be on mats. I cooked and did everything,” Koirala added. She said other challenges have included breaking the mindset of Nepali culture,

which views women as “second-class citizens.” “Convincing a mostly male-dominated government that sex trafficking is a problem has been difficult. Back then, it was very hard letting politicians know this was a crime. Judiciary police and enforcement was very corrupt.” Koirala said no questions are asked of the girls who arrive on her doorstep – roughly 20 a day. “We let them be, do what they have to do, walk, dance, talk. They’re scared but they eventually come to us.” Having 500 beds, the facility has never had to turn anyone away. When asked if being dubbed the 2010 CNN Hero of the Year, or being invited to events like the DARPAN gala ever gets old, the old soul was quick to respond. “I’m not proud of it, but it reminds me I still have work to do. My dream is that places like Maiti Nepal never have to exist,” she said. To donate to the organization, which means “Mother’s Home,” visit Maitinepal. org.

New play park at shopping mall draws mixed reviews Adrian MacNair

Now staff Twitter @adrianmacnair

GUILDFORD — A new interactive play park opened at the Guildford Town Centre over the weekend, offering digital games for children along walls decorated with colourful cartoon insects. Part of the new space has a giant beehive which houses four iPads with seats for children. There is also a row of six iPads along one of the walls, while on the other side there are six “hands on” activities. A seating area offers something of a respite for weary parents who can supervise their children while they play nearby. “In this case, we decided we wanted to try something different and be a little unique,” said Petra Barker, the mall’s community relations manager. However, not everybody is pleased with the change. On the Guildford Town Centre Facebook

page, Tara LeBlanc threatened to boycott the mall in the future. “Very disappointed that you would have a play area to help prevent the development of children by preventing their motor skills development and their social skills development,” she wrote. “I expected more especially with all the information out their (sic) saying to limit the exposure to technology especially kids under five who you have geared the play area for.” Callista Prosser said that when she moved to Surrey she was thrilled to find a mall with a kids play area where her toddler would burn some energy. “Big fail, huge letdown with your choice of kids area,” she wrote. “First of all you kept it tiled, which is by far the dumbest idea ever for a kids area. Kids run, no matter how much you ask them to slow down, they twirl, they jump, they slip and fall.” But Barker said the old play park is still available to the

place. She said she appreciates the public feedback and understands that some people aren’t happy about the new play area.

“I think like anything, you’re going to have people that like what you’re doing and people that don’t like what you’re doing,” she said. “And I think what we’re sensing is that people were expecting the same as we had before.” The process to redevelop the play park began in July 2012 and the final proposal and renderings were approved and accepted in March 2014. Studio Y Creations Inc beat out seven competitors that bid on the project. Barker said the location was chosen in part because it is across from the washrooms. This was something customers had asked about in the past and she said the mall felt it was important to offer shoppers a rest area. “Our intent was just to have a little space for a break,” she said. “We’re shopping, we need a little time out for a 10-minute break and then carry on. It’s not meant to be a full-on playground.”

A weekly two-page news feature that delves deep into the people and issues in our community

Clippings from the Now in the mid-1990s highlight news about the murders of Surrey residents Melanie Carpenter and Pamela Cameron. (Photo collage: ADRIAN MACNAIR)

HERE WE GO AGAIN The Serena Vermeersch case echoes other Surrey murders involving female victims and convicts on parole Analysis Tom Zytaruk

URREY — It’s no surprise at all that the man accused of murdering Surrey teenager Serena Vermeersch was a high-risk sex offender out on parole. Personally, I’d sussed it out last

week, several days before Raymond Lee Caissie was arrested, and told a homicide cop as much. Not that I’m smart, or have a crystal ball. It’s the way it works here in Surrey, and the Vermeersch family is simply the latest one to be cast into this archetypal living nightmare. The question is, why do we seem doomed to see this scenario play itself out again and again? The murder of Serena Vermeersch,

17, brings back memories of Pamela Cameron, 16, in South Surrey and Melanie Carpenter, 23, in Fleetwood. They, too, fell victim to “random” attacks. All three were going about their daily business – Vermeersch was last seen boarding a bus in Newton, Cameron was killed a few minutes after leaving Muffin Break at Semiahmoo Shopping Centre, where she did her homework, and Carpenter was abducted from the tanning salon where she worked.

The similarities are uncanny and demonstrate how little things have changed over the years. Cameron was murdered on Oct. 8, 1994. The Grade 10 Semiahmoo Secondary student’s naked body was discovered by Surrey RCMP dogs in a tangled forest near 20th Avenue, about 20 paces from 152nd Avenue. It was buried see › page 9

under a thick mat of rain-sodden leaves and her clothing was found about a block away, near a Dairy Queen. Her murderer not only robbed the teenage girl of her life and her family of their beloved daughter and sister, but also destroyed the tranquility of two Canadian communities nearly 5,000 kilometres apart, as Cameron’s family had moved to South Surrey from Milton, Ont., about two months prior to her untimely death. An autopsy revealed Cameron died of suffocation. Police refused to say if she’d been raped or strangled during the daylight attack, off the busy street. The public outcry was incredible. Political speeches were made and anti-crime rallies were staged. One rally drew more than 3,000 people to the site where Cameron’s body was found. After one of the most intense manhunts B.C. has ever seen, Mitchell James Owen turned himself in to police. Owen pleaded guilty to first-degree murder and was sentenced to life in prison with no parole for at least 25 years. Notably, before killing the girl, Owen had been granted parole from Kingston Penitentiary in Ontario, where he was serving 10 years for rape and armed robbery. Three months later, with Surreyites still reeling from the Cameron case, Melanie Carpenter was abducted on Jan. 6, 1995 from the Fleetwood tanning salon where she worked. Rallies and candlelight vigils were held, and speeches were made. Because she was abducted during daylight hours, a grassroots “Take Back the Day” campaign was launched. Several weeks later, a hiker found Carpenter’s body, concealed by a white blanket, in a crevice near an isolated road, four kilometres north of Yale. She’d been sexually assaulted and died of multiple stab wounds. The man believed to have kidnapped and killed Carpenter was convicted sex offender Fernand Edmond Auger, who was on mandatory release from Bowden penitentiary near Calgary after serving two-thirds of a two-year sentence for robbery. He’d been released four months prior to Carpenter’s murder. It may never be known if he was the killer, because he killed himself 14 days before her body was found. Auger was found dead in a rental car near High River, Alberta, having inhaled gas fumes. His suicide note left no indication of Carpenter’s whereabouts. “If this guy was kept in jail, my daughter would still be here,” seethed Steve Carpenter. More speeches were made, petitions were signed and rallies were held in protest against Canada’s parole system.

t Bear Creek Park, roughly 2,500 people braved 1995’s cold February wind to turn out for a “March for Justice.” The intention was to apply pressure on the federal government to have dangerous sex offenders kept in prison longer if they still pose a public risk. In Canada, a convict will generally be released after serving two-thirds of his or her sentence, but this can be revoked. Auger was released even though a prison psychologist reported he was at high risk of reoffending. This week we’ve learned – again, no surprise – that the man accused of second-degree murder in Vermeersch’s death, 43-year-old Raymond Caissie, has spent most of his life behind bars for sexual assault with a weapon, forcible confinement, robbery, theft and other crimes. Unlike the Carpenter and Cameron cases, Surrey residents did have the benefit of a warning, for what it was worth, about Caissie in the form of a public notification bulletin from the Corrections Branch on June 14, 2013, that the “high-risk sexual and violent offender” was “currently on bail supervision” and living in Surrey. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts predicted Caissie would reoffend and expressed outrage that he’d been released

The death of Surrey teen Serena Vermeersch has led to the arrest and charge of Raymond Lee Caissie.

SEE EDITORIAL ON PAGE 10 into her community. And then, as time wore on, the public forgot about him, until his arrest in Vancouver this past weekend. So far, the public knows little about the circumstances of Vermeersch’s death, except that a Surrey Search and Rescue team found her body near railway tracks in the 14600-block of 66th Avenue. Homicide investigators have been tight-lipped about the details of the case as it is now before the courts, and Vermeersch’s family has not yet spoken publicly except to ask, through the police, that the media respect their privacy as they grieve. On Sunday afternoon, a rally will be held at the Newton Seniors Centre. It’s called “Take Back Surrey - Rally 4 Change,” and is being organized by the Surrey Association of Sustainable Communities. Darlene Bowyer, one of the organizers, is expecting quite a crowd. “We’re getting a tremendous response.” Bowyer says it’s a “grassroots campaign” not connected to any civic campaign. Lest we forget, the civic election is in November, and no doubt speeches will be made. Those running for mayor and council will have to walk a fine line between expressing genuine outrage over the murder and the danger of being perceived as trying to use this tragic death to further their own political ends. On Tuesday, the Safe Surrey Coalition led by former mayor Doug McCallum called for an “emergency” Surrey city council meeting in response to the “ongoing wave of violence.” McCallum’s press release charged that, “With Surrey city council currently in Whistler attending the UBCM conference, the City of Surrey has been abandoned by those charged with ensuring the safety of residents.” It’s “disgraceful,” McCallum charged. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts, who is not running again for mayor but intends to run federally for the Conservative Party in South Surrey-White Rock in next year’s election, expressed outrage over Vermeersch’s death and Caissie’s release from prison. She said Canada needs to have better measures in place to keep criminals from preying on the public. Surrey North’s New Democrat MP Jasbir Sandhu, meantime, fired a shot over her Conservative colleagues’ bow. He slammed the Tory government for planning to cut funding to Circles of Support and Accountability, a nation-wide program for sex offenders who have

been released from prison. According to a story in the Huffington Post, a 2009 study revealed that participants in the program were 83 per cent less likely to reoffend sexually and 73 per cent less likely to reoffend at all. “As of April 1, 2015, this funding is completely gone,” Sandhu said. “In committee, parliamentary secretary Roxanne James suggested these organizations should look for private sponsorship.” “As a parent I’m very concerned,” Sandhu said. “These kinds of cuts are making communities unsafe. As a parent, I’m very angry. How do you reduce crime if you reduce funding for programs that are going to keep an eye on these individuals?” Asked about these cuts, Watts responded that the problem is larger than individual programs. “The laws have to change. I can’t speak to a program that’s been cut. I think it’s more a systemic issue,” she said. “The laws have to change – the safety of the general public should always override the offenders’.”

ltimately, after the dust settles in this latest murder case, will anything really change? Perhaps we’re doomed to see these terrible crimes play out again and again because, in order to protect our own Charter Rights and Freedoms, the few monsters among us must also be afforded the full benefit of law. A case in point was serial child killer Clifford Olson’s infamous Section 745 hearing here in Surrey, in 1997. The section, also known as the “Faint Hope Clause,” allowed for convicted murderers to apply for the eligibility to apply for parole after serving 15 years, on the faint hope they’d been rehabilitated. While not one person in Canada – the killer of at least 11 children probably among them – believed for a minute he would succeed in his bid, Olson was nevertheless entitled to his hearing, and during those four summer days did his level-best to further torment the families of his victims. The jury took little more than 12 minutes to return with a verdict of refusal and recommendation Olson not be allowed to apply for full parole until one day before his 25 year wait for eligibility expired. It was the harshest move the jury could make, unable as they were to recommend that he never be allowed to apply. Olson died in prison in 2011. Sunday’s “Take Back Surrey - Rally 4 Change” is set to begin at 2 p.m. at 13775 70th Ave., Newton. All considered, I wish them all the luck in the world. tzytaruk@thenownewspaper.com

Our view

If public safety program works, why cut funding?

nce again, Canada’s parole system is under fire after Raymond Lee Caissie, a highrisk sex offender on release from prison, has been charged with second-degree murder in Surrey teenager Serena Vermeersch’s death. Federal Justice Minister Peter MacKay has indicated the Conservative government is now looking at toughening up the system by keeping some convicts locked up indefinitely – a provision, mind you, that is already available through dangerous offender designation. But it will remain to be seen if whatever legislation the Tories enact to curb prisoners’ rights will really take or simply be rendered political window-dressing after the Supreme Court of Canada no doubt picks it apart. For the time being, one solution to help prevent criminal recidivism is for the government to continue funding programs such as Circles of Support and Accountability, as it has for a couple of decades now. This is a national program for sex offenders who have been released from prison. According to news reports, a study in 2009 found that program participants were 83 per cent less likely to reoffend sexually and 73 per cent less likely to reoffend at all. And what that means, if the study is correct, is a safer Canada and that somewhere within this nation, a child or woman isn’t being raped as a result. But instead of supporting this program, the Conservative government is set to cut funding for it by next April and suggests the private sector pick up the tab. Public safety is the responsibility of government, not the private sector. Moreover, the government should continue to fund this program, as it apparently works. The government should also require that sex offenders complete their treatment courses in prison, and if they don’t complete them, keep them locked up. And here’s something: Why not require sex offenders to also complete the Circles of Support and Accountability program once they’re released, on pain of being sent back to prison if they don’t.

Watts will fit in with Conservatives The Editor, Re: “Mayor Watts wants MP’s job,” the Now, Sept. 23. Who is Dianne Watts trying to kid? In my opinion, Russ Hiebert was ordered to vacate his seat for her and will be rewarded with a patronage job elsewhere by Prime Minister Stephen Harper. In my opinion. The fix was in long ago when she flip-flopped on the proposed casino in South Surrey. Perhaps she realized this would upset the elites in her new federal riding (White Rock/South Surrey), so she quickly reversed her support for the casino. The past elections have demonstrated

In my opinion, Watts has always been another pro-development mayor.… that a poodle could win in her new federal riding, as long as it ran under the Conservative Party banner. In my opinion, Watts has always been another pro-development mayor, and as for her claim to be a fiscal conservative – don’t make me laugh. My property taxes have risen over 33 per cent since she became the mayor

DEBATE Letters

Rail relocation would ‘unlock national treasure’ The Editor, The inevitable movement of the Boundary Bay rails will have little to do with the relative worth of blueberry fields or the ocean foreshore. It will be driven by simple math. The new route will be five kilometres shorter and 30 minutes faster. The shorter, wider, faster route is not only safer, it gives a return on investment. It will support Port Metro Vancouver (PMV) growth, and the expansion of Canada-U.S. trade. It will compliment the port’s investment in Roberts Bank and secure Canada’s economic relevance for the next 100 years. The main artery for moving goods between Canada and the U.S. is a single track, winding along the edge of a bay, under an unstable bluff, with no possible emergency access from land or sea. It crosses three rivers, two bird sanctuaries, and a 100-year-old swing bridge. It bisects two level crossings, three public beaches, a boat launch and serves as a de-facto hiking path for thousands of foreshore visitors. In 12 years, freight along the bay has grown fourfold, and PMV projects further increases. The once sleepy old corridor is isolating communities as it runs out of capacity. The reason it has not moved sooner is because the

math didn’t need it to. Ironically, the growing problem also brings the basis for a solution. The only remaining question is when, and we look to our leaders for this answer. Once answered, it will unlock a 12-mile national treasure for the benefit of the nearly one million people living south of the Fraser. It will forever change the evolution of the region by allowing the flow of people and ideas between Vancouver and the emerging bay communities. Erik Seiz, president, Crescent Beach Property Owners Association

Not all voters live in South Surrey The Editor, Re: “Surrey First promises action on rail relocation,” the Now, Sept. 18. Surrey First needs to remember not all voters live in South Surrey. As a voter living in the northwest area of Surrey, I’m fed up with the political pandering to residents in the South. The South didn’t want a casino, so there will not be a casino. The planes flying

overhead disturbed the quiet in the South, now the northwest is having to listen to the redirected plane traffic. The South is concerned about increased rail traffic, they are promised a rail-line relocation, and Surrey First is “committed to getting this done.” As noted in the article, the anticipated increase in rail traffic is due to the Fraser Surrey Docks (FSD) adding coal facilities. Surrey First needs to focus its promises on stopping the coal facility at FSD while there is still time, instead of just moving the problem into another area of Surrey. K. Thomson, “Not South Surrey”

Build overpass/bridge at Crescent Beach The Editor, Mayoral candidate Barinder Rasode has stated elsewhere that while she agrees rail safety is a priority for cities across Canada, moving the tracks is not a decision “that can be made as an election promise… not one that we will have much direct impact on.” She deserves credit for not pandering to the electorate by promising us things we

cannot afford. Any politician who promises to move the tracks must explain why the safety of residents of one South Surrey neighbourhood is $500 million more important than the safety of residents of other South Surrey neighbourhoods. There’s already a rail speed limit along White Rock beach. Surrey should negotiate a 30 km/h speed limit with BNSF from the U.S. border all the way to the Nicomekl River bridge, because a derailment at that low speed is very unlikely to turn into a catastrophe. What can be done when stopped trains block the road to Crescent Beach? A pedestrian overpass or tunnel should be constructed immediately at the Beecher Street crossing to give emergency crews foot access to the area. Also, basic firefighting and first-aid equipment, including ambulance stretchers, should be cached in a convenient place near the beach. Finally, a safe helicopter landing area should be designated at Blackie Spit in the event it is necessary to transport an urgent medical case. As for the all the money this would save all levels of government, just send it to me because I could find better ways to spend it! Gary Cameron, Surrey

DEBATE Guest column

City halls keep on spending, and evidence is at UBCM Opinion Jordan Bateman

n important travel advisory for provincial politicians attending this week’s Union of B.C. Municipalities (UBCM) conference in Whistler: Keep a close eye on your government-issued credit cards – B.C.’s mayors and councillors are out to pickpocket taxpayers yet again. The UBCM is a once-a-year gathering – not to be confused with the half-dozen other once-a-year gatherings for municipal politicians – where mayors and councillors eat, drink, meet and apparently push for more money from the provincial government. Even by UBCM standards, this year’s stack of resolutions from various municipalities is expensive. Fully half of the 159 resolutions proposed by various councils demand more money from the provincial government. If the B.C. government acquiesced, we’d be talking about several billion dollars in new spending. Provincial daycare and a dozen

other new programs wouldn’t come cheap. Then there are the usual series of goofy resolutions, most of which fall wildly outside any mandate given a local mayor or council. Central Kootenay wants to give ICBC more business by having them offer home insurance. Sechelt wants the Workers Compensation Act applied to elected officials. Santa Claus doesn’t get this many requests. What mayors and councillors forget is that this money doesn’t come out of some magical money tree. It’s not provincial government money, or BC Liberal money, or even Premier Christy Clark’s money – it’s taxpayer money. Last year, the same gang produced a 115-page report on local government finance reform, but offered one cost-saving measure, suggesting cities share services, buried on page 102. That’s it. British Columbians already pay 44 per cent of our income in taxes, yet there are as many resolutions demanding new taxes as there are calls for cost-saving measures. New Westminster wants a civic liquor tax. Central Kootenay wants a designated disaster relief tax. Sicamous wants a province-wide tax to buy up unused rail corridors. Meanwhile, cost-saving ideas are mighty

thin. Comox Valley wants the CRTC to eliminate one-touch 911 cell buttons, to cut down non-emergency calls. Delta wants exemptions to groundwater remediation rules in areas where that water isn’t used for drinking. Local government is now an $11-billion-a year enterprise in this province. Since 2001, they have hiked wages 38 per cent – far more than the 23-per-cent inflation rate, and twice what the provincial government did with its employees. This has meant more spending than ever before, even when adjusting for inflation and population. “Real per-capita municipal spending across Metro Vancouver grew by 32 per cent between 2000 and 2010, compared with approximately 10 per cent in the provincial government,” Ernst and Young reported. The one worthy idea that may actually save

considerable money is Nelson’s call to change police and fire arbitration rules, which have been criticized by many communities across the province and the B.C.’s Mayor Caucus. Because police officers and firefighters cannot go out on strike without society collapsing, labour disputes are sent to arbitration. Many communities want the rules governing arbitration changed to make settlements more affordable. One such option, says Ernst and Young, is to ensure that arbitrators “apply local economic criteria and consider the financial impact of salary and benefits on the municipality and its taxpayers.” In other words, arbitrators shouldn’t hand out deals that taxpayers can’t afford. Makes sense. Mayors and councillors aren’t following that same principle when it comes to the provincial government. Instead, they continue to ask for billions of dollars that simply aren’t there. And one smart, cost-saving resolution out of 159 shouldn’t give taxpayers much to cheer about.

Results vary from patient to patient. May be covered under employee health care benefits. Laser therapy is not a surgical or invasive process. There is no cutting or burning with this type of laser. Instead, it gets absorbed by soft tissue and joints. This stimulates the healing process by increasing the production of ATP(adenosine triphosphate). ATP is the simple fuel that cells need to heal injuries and resolve inflammation. Laser therapy can also reduce scar tissue formation, increase lymphatic drainage and improve vascular circulation. All these things lead to faster and improved healing. If your in pain call Laser Health Solutions today!

Surrey police solving fewer violent crimes Report obtained by the Now shows RCMP clearance rates are declining in the City of Parks Christopher Poon

Now staff Twitter @questionchris

SURREY — A criminologist’s report obtained by the Now reveals fewer violent crimes are being solved in Surrey at the same time the overall rate of crime is increasing. Authored by Dr. Curt Taylor Griffiths of SFU Surrey’s School of Criminology, the report looks at Surrey RCMP in comparison with several similarly sized municipalities with both RCMP and independent police services (IPS). Comparing Surrey with RCMP cities Burnaby, Coquitlam Richmond and IPS cities Abbotsford, Delta and Vancouver, Griffiths used numbers provided by Statistics Canada to examine crime severity index (CSI) scores, clearance rates for criminal cases and numbers of criminal code offences. The crime severity index score is tabulated by assigning offences a numerical value, with higher numbers for more severe cases. The score is then divided by a city’s population to arrive at its CSI score. Highlights from the paper show that compared to the municipalities mentioned, Surrey has the highest crime rate by a wide margin (89.3 CSI compared to next lowest Coquitlam, at 57.7), the smallest decrease in crime since 2008 (tied with Richmond) and the highest violent crime rate (130.2 compared to next lowest Vancouver at 114.9). Compared to the six other municipalities, Surrey RCMP are also solving fewer violent crimes today than in 2003, and has the lowest violent crime clearance rate (at 34.5 compared to next lowest Burnaby at 38). Surrey was also the only city with a violent crime clearance rate that actually decreased from 2008 to 2012 (from 37.8 in 2008 to 34.5 in 2012).

A report obtained by the Now shows Surrey’s officers have a higher caseload than their independent police service counterparts. (Now file photo)

You’ve got to figure out how to create a policing arrangement that restores safety and security among your residents. It’s more than just dollars and cents.

For Griffiths, also a longtime Surrey resident, the numbers came as a surprise. “I live in Surrey and I’m aware of the challenges and this is just for generic discussion but it’s kind of interesting the way the numbers came out,” he said. “Surrey is on track to catch up with Vancouver in terms of population and I’ve never really seen a comparison between Vancouver and Surrey before… As a criminologist and a police scholar, I think it’s something we have to take a look at. Why is there this difference

in numbers? Why the lower clearance rate, why does the CSI score look so different?” According to numbers from the Ministry of Justice, Vancouver has nearly twice as many officers as Surrey, with 1,327 compared to Surrey’s 667. However, Griffiths is quick to point out that more officers don’t necessarily equate to fewer crimes. “Vancouver, they shift by demand for service so they know that Thursday night starts to be primetime so they load up on officers from Thursday to Sunday morning,” he explained. “So Vancouver has less officers out at 1:30 p.m. Monday than they would on the weekend.” Comparatively, general-duty RCMP officers in Surrey typically work a four-on, four-off rotation, with two days, two nights and then four days off. “That means that Surrey would have as many officers on the street right now than they would at Friday midnight,” said Griffiths. “That doesn’t make sense because we know for most municipalities things start cranking up Thursday night and taper off Sunday morning, so when someone says

Surrey needs 200 more officers my question would be what are they going to do with them?” On top of the number of officers being of concern in Surrey, figures from the Ministry of Justice also show that despite the policing costs-per-capita being lower in the RCMP municipalities ($234 for Surrey compared to $366 in Vancouver) the costs-per-officers are nearly the same ($171,071 for Surrey and $184,144 for Vancouver). As well, RCMP officers carry larger caseloads than IPS officers with 35 per officer in Vancouver and 65 per officer in Surrey. Asked what an independent police force in Surrey might look like and if the cost would be feasible for the city, Griffiths said council would have to look at all angles. “In terms of costs it would probably be in the millions, but what are the differences? What do you get from an IPS that you don’t get from the RCMP?” he said. “With the RCMP you get benefits, they’ve got E Division headquartered here and you’ve got the benefits of their full resources. The downside is that you don’t have a police board, which provides more accountability and governance like Vancouver.” Griffiths noted the last time a municipality in B.C. switched from RCMP to an IPS was in 1994, when Abbotsford did it. Here in Surrey, though, Griffiths said it would be a much bigger task than what Abbotsford faced in the mid-1990s. “What the council would have to do is sit down and look at the cost of transition. Surrey’s no backwater anymore,” he said. “Then there’s the question of regionalization.” Finally, Griffiths said he hopes the paper spurs some kind of discussion within the community about crime and policing, and said there were plan to hold discussion forums at SFU sometime in the future related to that. “You’ve got to figure out how to create a policing arrangement that restores safety and security among your residents,” he said. “It’s more than just dollars and cents. There are a lot of nuances with that. How do you put a dollar figure on people’s perception of crime and safety? How do you put a cost on the fact that there’s a community that seems pretty shell-shocked?”

CLOVERDALE – The Cloverdale Agriplex will no longer have a soil floor now that the 30-year-old building has nearly completed renovations. Mike MacSorley, general manager of Cloverdale Rodeo & Exhibition Association, came up with the idea for putting in a cement floor in order to make it a more diverse venue. “Turning it into a cement floor just opens up a lot more business opportunities. “It makes it a much more versatile building. It also doesn’t limit what we can do with the agricultural community,” MacSorley said. “We’ve kept the dirt so we can move the dirt in and out as we need it.” The Cloverdale Agriplex, which holds the Cloverdale Rodeo & Exhibition each The general manager added that the year, swapped out its soil for concrete.

INFORM Newton

Park(ing) event starts public talk Kristi Alexandra

Now contributor Twitter @kristialexandra

NEWTON — A small group of Surrey residents gathered in Newton on Friday afternoon to take over a parking stall infront of Espresso Café for a couple hours. David Dalley, a community activist best known for his Friends of the Grove group, took on the Park(ing) Day initiative “to call attention to the need for more urban open space, to generate critical debate around how public space is created and allocated, and to improve the quality of urban human habitat.” With a Persian rug, some live, potted trees, a couple musical instruments, a tent and more, Dalley and crew took over the spot as a mobile living room, using the space to create discussion between community members and, well, just for a place to hang out. “There was just a small group of us, and some people stopped by to say

hi,” Dalley said of the event. “I think the more we weave those webs of connectedness, the business community and the neighbours and community groups. I think that’s all good stuff.” Dalley said that the group was respectful of the space, and though the event may have been in contravention to city bylaws of public space usage, there was no harm done. In next year’s event, the group hopes to gain more people in a different neighbourhood. “We all live here and we all want to keep a stake in it, that’s the main thing moving forward,” Dalley said. “We want to work on building trust in a playful and creative way.” kalexandra @thenownewspaper.com

Innocent bystander shot in home invasion by masked men SURREY – A 21-year-old innocent bystander was shot by masked men in a Newton neighbourhood early Tuesday morning while checking in on a friend. Surrey RCMP are now investigating the aftermath of a home invasion near 76B Avenue and 146A Street that left the bystander hospitalized with a gunshot wound to the jaw. At about 1 a.m. early Tuesday morning (Sept. 23), at least five masked men forced their way into a home and tied up a 20-year-old man in a basement suite. As the men were leaving the house, however, they ran into a neighbour who had been roused by the commotion. The masked men fired multiple shots at the neighbour, hitting him once in the jaw before they fled the scene. The victim is now in hospital recovering with non lifethreatening injuries.

Although no arrests have yet been made, Cpl. Bert Paquet said Surrey RCMP has visited the house before and are familiar with the resident. “We believe this is a targeted incident,” he said. “There’s a 20-year-old male living at that location that is known to police.” Paquet added police do not know whether it is linked to organized crime or gang activity and the home is not the site of a marijuana grow-operation. In another incident, police have released the name of Saturday night’s shooting victim Barinder Khangura, who was shot dead near 145th Street and 83A Ave in what police believe is a targeted attack. At press time, they had yet to identify a suspect.

SOUTH SURREY — Cindy Paine is toying with the idea of increasing a reward amount to $2,000, after little to no information has come forth since the disappearance of her dog Sarah on July 31. “I might have to do that, to really let people know I’m serious. I really miss my dog and I know she misses me too,” Paine tearfully said. Sarah was adopted a year ago, roughly two months after Paine had put down her border collie. “It really was love at first site. We just clicked. She’s my glue.” Unfortunately, while Paine was at work, Sarah escaped by digging her way under the fence. Those living around the Cranley Drive mobile home park spotted the pooch throughout the week, but no one was

successful in catching her. “She had done this before, but our neighbours were able to get her back in. I guess this time, she got freaked out and realized she didn’t know where she was and kept on going.” A witness came forward Aug. 10, stating he had seen the dog with a couple and two children in a Grandview Corners parking lot. The pair had told the witness they were planning to take Sarah to the SPCA, but no dog of that description was ever turned in. “I think she was stolen. They probably took her home, fell in love and did the wrong thing,” Paine added. The canine lover said she will continue putting up posters while waiting for that phone to ring. “I just want her home.” People are asked to call 604-805-4535 if they know anything about Sarah’s whereabouts. The dog does have an ear tattoo with Paine’s information. tverenca@gmail.com

World Rivers Day project

‘Take the Dip’ in Surrey streams Sunday Tereza Verenca

Now contributor Twitter @tverenca

SURREY — The City of Surrey is asking residents to “Take the Dip” on World Rivers Day this Sunday (Sept. 28). Hundreds of watertesting kits have been sent out to libraries and recreation centres for pickup, in an effort to increase environmental stewardship within the community. “I’m hoping for at least 1,000 participants. You can go into your own neighbourhood on your own time,” said environmental technologist Liana Ayach. “It only takes five to 10 minutes.” The questionnaire asks people to record the water’s temperature, its nitrate and turbidity levels, as well as its acidity. “Even if the water looks

If we see a problematic area, we

can go out and do more lab testing.” The initiative, done in partnership with the World Watch Monitoring Challenge, FreshWater Watch and Evergreen Canada, is a first for the city. The data collected will be

used to create a spreadsheet, scheduled to be posted to the city’s website by late October. Ayach added she’ll be updating the info as results come in. “Even if I get a result back from Burnaby, that’s terrific, too. We’re all in communication with one another. The more info we have, the better, because it’s really helpful to these organizations.” Participants are asked to be mindful of salmonbearing areas and to dip safely away from bridges and road crossings. Each kit has a prestamped postcard to allow for an easy mail-in. They can be picked up at various places, including City Centre Library and the city hall info desk.

Green light for rod/gun show in spring of 2015 Christopher Poon

Now staff Twitter @questionchris

CLOVERDALE — The B.C. Rod and Gun Show is a go. Surrey council approved the trade show at the last council meeting, giving organizers the green light to fully begin the prep work for what’s being billed as “Surrey’s Biggest Outdoor Show.” Kent Archibald, owner of the Firearms Training Centre in Cloverdale and one of the event’s organizers, is excited to move forward with the event, which will be held next spring. “We are well underway,” he said, noting it would be the first trade show of its kind for Surrey. “Nobody’s ever done this before in the city so we’re hoping for a full house.” The event will feature numerous vendors selling firearms, hunting supplies and anything else related to outdoor

activities. “It’s going to be kind of a swap meet for new and used stuff,” said Archibald. “It’s not a gun show, per se, but there will be used firearms for sale. There will be Canada firearms officers there to be doing any necessary transfers.” Archibald said while most outdoor shows focus specifically on guns, they’re hoping to have more variety on offer for local outdoors people. “So that includes boats, campers, quads tents firearms and fishing gear,” he said. “If it’s to do with outdoor activities, we’ll have it there.” On top of the vendors, there will be demonstrations set up for people to learn about first aid (both human and canine), firearms safety and fast-draw shooting. The B.C. Rod and Gun Show will take place at the Cloverdale Fairgrounds April 17 to 19, 2015. For more information, go to Bcrodandgunshow.com.

SURREY — “I would always have my masculinity questioned because I wasn’t living up to standard.” Those are the words of Newton resident Nicole Joliet, who hopes to win a seat on the Surrey school board as the first transgender trustee. “People would make fun of my voice, how it would go high, how I wasn’t predisposed to athletics,” said Joliet, 23. “Students should not be made to feel like this.” If elected, Joliet wants to update Surrey’s

Surrey civic election

Transgender candidate hopes for a first in Surrey not as strong as she had hoped. “It’s a start. We’d rather have it voted and approved and build on it than come out with a stronger policy that wouldn’t be accepted,” she said. “It’s all about baby steps.” Larsen added the policy, which was written by parents, students and staff, should be seen as an educational piece. “Some don’t even know what the initials LGBTQ mean, and they don’t know if they walk down the hall and somebody calls somebody else ‘gay,’ if it’s in good fun or if it’s mean-spirited. We have to teach people to recognize the difference.” tverenca@gmail.com

Bollywood show Saturday

SLAM! tour here with Surrey help Tom Zillich

Now staff Twitter @tomzillich

SURREY — A show copromoted by a Surrey-based company will bring some of Bollywood’s biggest stars to Vancouver this weekend. The SLAM! tour (Sound, Light, Action, Music) makes a stop at the Pacific Coliseum on Saturday evening (Sept. 27), with Indian megastar actor Shahrukh “King” Khan in the house, along with Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, rappersinger Yo Yo Honey Singh, singer Kanika Kapoor and others. The show promises to deliver extensive use of pyrotechnics, a moving LED light show, stunts and special effects. The Happy New Year film team, led by Khan, will headline the event, which is billed as “the biggest Bollywood extravaganza of all times.” The SLAM! event is produced by California’s DBR Entertainment in partnership with a group of Surrey-based people, including Mona Matta, of Verka Foods International. “This is one of the biggest

This is one of the biggest Bollywood extravaganzas on tour here, ever. Bollywood extravaganzas on tour here, ever,” Matta said. “This is something that’s never before happened here in Vancouver – a one-ofa-kind show.… I’m a huge fan myself, and when the opportunity presented itself to be a part of this amazing event, we did not hesitate to get involved.” The show comes on the heels of the Times of India

Film Awards, which hit Vancouver in April 2013. According to DBR Entertainment’s Dave Atwal, it was “King” Khan himself who handpicked Vancouver for this weekend’s event – the kind that would typically be held in Toronto, not here on the West Coast, he noted. “When he picked out all the six concert (locations for the tour in North America),

he picked Vancouver.… He could have done all in the U.S. only,” said Atwal, adding that other SLAM 2014 tour locations include San Jose, New Jersey, Chicago, Houston and Washington, D.C. “After TOIFA, Vancouver is a much, much bigger base – multiculturally, everything,” said Atwal. “I think in future, Vancouver will be No. 1 for North America for any kind of Indian concert.” According to Atwal, the industry has already “shifted from L.A. to (Vancouver),” with Indian film crews first opting to shoot in B.C., whereas it used to be producers’ third choice after California and Toronto. “TOIFA took it to a different level,” said Atwal. Although Khan performed a few numbers at TOIFA in April 2013, Atwal noted, the last time he held a full concert in Vancouver was in 2004 as part of his “Temptations” tour. Tickets for Saturday’s SLAM! show range from $86 to $445 and can be purchased at Ticketleader. ca/events/slam and also Sulekha.com.

Bulging, Herniated or Worn Discs may be to Blame for Sciatica, Pain and Numbness in Legs Bulged Disc

]

Did you know that over 30 million North Americans suffer from back and neck pain every day? Whether spine and back problems result from an auto accident, injury, or have crept up over time, sciatica and herniated discs are often misunderstood and improperly treated. They can result in pain and numbness anywhere in the body. This pain affects everything that you do, from work to play, and ultimately your quality of life. You might not even be able to sleep at night without pain. If you suffer from debilitating pain, we are here to tell you that there is hope. We have the technology and decades of experience to help you find relief from disc problems and sciatica. The Spinal Decompression Institute focuses on treating all disc and spine-related conditions with advanced non-surgical treatments. We are so confident that we can help you find relief that we are offering a complimentary consultation to the first 25 callers.

Spinal Decompression Allows Back Pain to Heal...Without Drugs or Surgery Decompression relieves pressure that builds up on the discs and nerves. The task of relieving pain comes about as a result of drawing the leaking gel of a herniated disc back into place. Decompression achieves this by creating

Herniated Disc Sciatica Pinched Nerves Stenosis

“For me, taking this program has been a huge success. I have my normal life back. The best part of it is to be able to say… I remember when I had a herniated disc.” — Bridget

negative pressure within the disc, referred to as negative intradiscal pressure. This creates essentially a vacuum to draw the bulging and herniated disc material back into the disc space and relieves pressure. This process of non-surgical decompression allows the body to heal itself naturally and is only one of many treatment options available at Spinal Decompression Institute.

Many spinal conditions can be treated, including pain due to bulging and herniated discs, degenerated discs, sciatica, low back pain, neck pain and much more. If you have chronic or severe back pain, you may be a candidate for spinal decompression treatment. At the Spinal Decompression Institute, we will evaluate your condition and only recommend treatment if it’s right for you.

Class IV Therapeutic Laser

Why The Spinal Decompression Institute?

The Spinal Decompression Institute employs a variety of high-tech solutions along with decades of experience to help alleviate your particular pain. Along with spinal decompression, our Class IV Therapeutic Laser Therapy is an outpatient, nonsurgical procedure which is often used in sports medicine to accelerate the healing process. This pain-free, non-surgical approach works by stimulating the body’s natural healing processes, providing pain relief and reducing injury and damage. This leading-edge technology has shown results in returning patients to work, sports and competitive activities, as well as everyday life. Laser therapy is just one of the treatment options that Spinal Decompression Institute offers as a non-invasive option for those facing surgery.

Who is a Candidate for Spinal Decompression? With 7 out of 10 people experiencing low back and neck pain at some point in their lives and those types of pain being the most common reasons for patient visits to primary care physicians as well as hospitalization, there is no doubt that back and neck pain exists in epidemic proportions today.

The staff at the Spinal Decompression Institute has over 40 years of combined experience in treating patients suffering from back and neck problems. We offer a variety of treatment options for those dealing with back pain. We have helped thousands of people to live pain free!

Plan Your Next rV Getaway!

The 2014 snowbird rV show & sale will help you plan your rV adventure with fantastic seminar topics and guest speakers. The seminar lineup will feature multiple presentations from seasoned rVers and industry experts who will teach you the tips and tricks to make your getaway a success.

meet The Goys D

an and Lisa Goy are your expert guides should you find yourself wanting to cruise through the breathtaking vistas of the Baja, or explore other parts of North America including Alaska and the Maritimes. This husband and wife duo are seasoned campers, and have a wealth of knowledge, stories, and tips to share. Their first camping vacation in Mexico was in 1985 traveling in their Class B. With their children in tow, they embarked on a four-month long adventure that would change their lives forever. They traveled down Baja, moving from beach to beach, then from Cabo San Lucas to Puerto Vallarta on the mainland. They spent their most memorable Christmas outside of Acapulco in Pie de la Questa. Since then, RVing through Mexico has been a way of life for this family as they have embraced the customs, culture and communities.

In 2009, Dan and Lisa decided to share their love of Mexico by starting Baja Amigos RV Caravan Tours. Dan Goy, alongside fellow RV traveler and expert, Paul Beddows, will host two seminars at the Snowbird RV Show to cover all topics related to RV Caravan Tours including advantages and disadvantages, doâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ts of

camping, itineraries, excursions and more. A special treat will be the sharing of awe-inspiring photographs that provide a glimpse at the diverse and impactful experiences the RV lifestyle has in store for those adventurous enough to join in on the journey.

RVing – a customizable getaway

Whether you’re a thrill-seeking adventurer or low-key vacationer, recreational vehicles provide the perfect companion for anyone looking for a memorable and exciting excursion. RVs have made both weekend trips and cross-country voyages a breeze, with the flexibility, affordability and freedom they provide. Globetrotters of all ages have discovered the fun yet affordable experience that can only come with an RV trip. Regardless of age, budget or family type, a good time is always guaranteed when you plan an RV vacation.

next level camping • Camping has never been so stress-free and comfortable! RVs are your home away from home, allowing you to cook, clean, shower and sleep – in style. • No storage? No problem! RVs are packed with storage options for all your camping gear, bikes, food and fishing equipment, plus much more. • Kids will love learning about the outdoors; parents will love the option of a comfy bed for naptime.

unforgettable weekend memories • Celebrate your favorite sports team in the best way possible – with an RV tailgate! • Whether it’s white water rafting, hang gliding, hunting or even antiquing, spontaneous

adventures have never been so easy. • Forgot to book a hotel for this weekend’s big game, concert or expo? Not a problem with an RV! • Your turn for the kids’ carpool? RVs provide ample seating and storage options.

eco-Friendly travel • Today’s RVs are more environmentally friendly than ever before. With vehicles that are now lighter, smaller and more aerodynamic, the RV industry is leading the way in green travel. • Fuel efficient RVs not only save money, but help save the earth! • There’s no need to use disposable dishes, cups and utensils that fill up the landfills. You can bring your own in your RV, wash them after eating, and then re-use. • More people in an RV means fewer cars on the road.

an affordable escape

• During peak travel seasons, hotels can get very expensive and crowded. RVs are a great alternative, allow for more freedom and provide guaranteed accommodations. • A family of four can save up to 59% on vacation costs over other travel options, which includes all RV ownership costs: leasing payments, insurance, maintenance, tires and registration – the savings are huge! • Preparing and cooking fresh meals for your family is a luxury that only RVs can provide when away from home, and are a much cheaper and often healthier alternative to eating every meal out. • Fuel costs for air travel are considerably more expensive that those associated with RVing.

GO! The arts

Circus show, dance on Surrey’s Culture Days calendar ArtsScene Melanie Minty Columnist

he people at Surrey Arts Centre want us to participate in Culture Days weekend. “Culture – it’s not just for yogurt,” states the catchy press release from SAC. Gotta love that. After all, cultured things are good for you. And Surrey citizens, take heart and be proud of your centre for arts and culture. This is Canada’s fifth annual Culture Days weekend, and on Saturday, Sept. 27, the arts centre will host hands-on art-making, circus performers, quilting demonstrations, a break-dance battle, a book launch and a host of locallygrown performing artists. These free activities are sure to attract a large crowd. Most of the scheduled activities are ongoing between 1 and 5 p.m., including the Just For Kicks school break-dance demo and crew battle and

youth circus performers with Cirque Surrey. The lineup is subject to change, but check it out online at Surrey.ca/ arts. For more information on Culture Days activities in and around Surrey, go to Bc.culturedays.ca/en. Surrey Arts Centre is nestled in the northeast corner of Bear Creek Park, at 88th Avenue and King George Boulevard – but you know that already, don’t you? Don’t you think that a Canadian culture weekend is a perfect ending to the first week of public school in B.C.? Isn’t participating in arts and culture a learning experience in a social setting? Personal interaction is still the best method for learning about each other, our history and our cultural heritage. Celebrate it all this weekend. One of my favourite methods of interacting in the arts is attending a live performance. Community theatre clubs put in huge amounts of time and effort to present for us great entertainment at an affordable price. Pick a play, go see it. White Rock Players’ Club presents Noises Off!, by Michael Frayn, at Coast Capital Playhouse during October.

There is an art in writing a complete and informative press release and when you might be new to the job, it is a true learning experience. Rebekah MacEwan, new to the producer’s role says, “Can you believe I’m producing this show?!? We’ll see if I survive to opening! I am learning so many things I never knew as a performer.” You see, it is all a learning experience. Noises Off! is a hilarious play that presents the offstage antics of actors and what can go wrong with a play – things the audience never sees. Usually. This fun frolic stars Val Dearden, Krysle Hadlow, Vanessa Klein, Bryce Mills, Josh Fuller, Tom Gage, Sheila Greentree, Ken Fynn and Dan Tribe. see MINTY › page 33

Artist Shary Boyle’s 2005 painting “Untitled (the Porcelain Fantasy series)” is on view at Surrey Art Gallery this fall, as part of the “Flora and Fauna” exhibit organized by the National Gallery of Canada.

ScotiaMcLeod White Rock Welcomes the

GO! MINTY: ‘Noises Off’ opens season in White Rock ‹ from page 32

Tickets are $18 for adults and $16 for students, seniors and CCS members; all tickets are $10 for the preview shows on Oct. 8 and 9, inclusive of taxes and fees. Call the box office at 604-536-7535 or visit Whiterockplayers.ca to buy tickets online. Noises Off! kicks off the 70th season for the White Rock Players. They must have been doing something right all these years to have survived for so long. And since we are on an educational theme, the term “noises off ” refers to noises that are not made onstage, but off. It could be a doorbell, thunder, a scream – whatever, just something for the stage manager to think about. Just think of what could happen if a siren wail is cued for noises off and the actor on stage is supposed to be answering a ringing phone. Elsewhere, the New Westminster-based Vagabond Players open their new season with the comedy-thriller Murder by the Book. Surrey’s Harry Pering stars as the vitriolic thriller writer, Selwyn Piper, who delights in crossing swords with his venomous ex-wife, Imogen. Pering is a seasoned performer who has played in comedies, dramas and musicals with many Lower Mainland theatre groups. I know I have worked with him before, both onstage

and off. All good. Murder by the Book is directed by Jacqollyne Keath and stars Michelle Collier, Mike Parker, Alanna Winterly and Alex Ross. There are twists and turns to this black comedy, and lots of laughs – perfect for October. The show runs from Oct. 2 to 25 at Bernie Legge Theatre in Queens Park. Tickets range from $13 to $15, reservations via 604-521-0412 and Vagabondplayers.ca. Metro Theatre, located in Vancouver, presents The 39 Steps until Oct. 11. This first show of Metro’s 52nd season is based on an Alfred Hitchcock masterpiece. Four actors portray more than 150 characters in this spy-spoof production. It helps if you know the original Hitchcock but, just in case, here is the basic plot: A man with a boring life meets a woman with a thick accent who says she’s a spy. When he takes her home, she is murdered. Soon, a mysterious organization called The 39 Steps is hot on the man’s trail in a nationwide manhunt that climaxes in a death-defying finale. Tickets are $23 for adults and $20 for students and seniors. Every Wednesday, you can buy two tickets for $32, and every Thursday you can buy two tickets for $34. Tickets are available at 604-266-7191 or online at Tickets. metrotheatre.com. melminty@telus.net

GO! Music

Genuine Jug Band authentic in sound, scope Kristi Alexandra

Now contributor Twitter @kristialexandra

SURREY/WHITE ROCK — Often, when you hear revivalist music, it may come off as a quirky nod to the times it hailed from. For local trio Genuine Jug Band, which plays music from the turn of the century, “revivalist” means getting it down to a tee. The band plays acoustic jazz and blues “jug band” music in the style of the 1890s to the 1930s. And thanks to musicologist Douglas Fraser, who leads the band as vocalist and plays banjo and tenor guitar, they do it all authentically. “We play the kind of music that was played at the turn of the century,” Fraser said, sipping on a coffee at an independent White Rock café. “It’s mostly jazz but we also play traditional delta blues. This is how it would have sounded when it was first created,” he said, adding that “nothing is electric, it’s all acoustic and true to its form.” The band also includes Tony McBride on drums and Terry Devine on the “gutbucket” – a one string fretless upright bass – and, of course, the jug.

Genuine Jug Band drummer Tony McBride on his custom kit, featured in the August edition of Modern Drummer magazine. McBride’s drum kit, which includes two washboards, a cowbell, a French horn, a bass and snare set on the floor and more, was featured in the August 2014 edition of Modern Drummer magazine, an American

music publication. Fraser, who designed and built the kit, said it’s been in the works since 1965. McBride submitted a photo and a write-up to the magazine on his unique setup nearly

two years ago, and wasn’t expecting to see his drum set in last month’s issue. “Every month, you get the magazine and there’s a ‘Kit of the Month’ section and they review people who have something unique to share,” McBride said. “I thought, ‘Well, I think mine qualifies, to be honest.’ There’s drums involved and there’s percussion aspects involved…. For two days I didn’t open (the magazine). When I finally opened it up and looked at the back, I couldn’t believe it.” While the Genuine Jug Band’s percussion setup is definitely one-of-a-kind, ironically enough, the kit is anything but modern. “At the turn of the century, before they had developed a way to mass-produce, if you wanted a musical instrument, you went into an instrument builder, ordered the instrument and they made it for you,” explained Fraser, who studies music historically and recently penned a nonfiction book called Early Entertainment. “If you were middle-class or poor and this wasn’t your vocation and this was just a hobby or a side interest, you probably wouldn’t put the money aside for this kind see › page 35

Music

Special washboard order ‹ from page 34

of venture, it was too expensive. But people who are musical and want to play won’t let those little things stop them; they made their own instruments and you would find banjos made out of pie tins, with a stick on the end and they really used anything they could get their hands on. One thing they found was that blowing a certain way into an empty jug of whiskey you could make it sound like a tuba – hence the name ‘jug band.’ And instead of buying drums, you could make a percussive sound on a washboard by tapping it and running your hand down it.” Fraser, who said he is “big into washboards and this original music,” said that’s how lower-class musicians began using kitchen washboards in “hillbilly blues” bands. Funnily enough, the American-based Columbus Washboards – the last in the world to produce the “instruments” – made McBride and Fraser a special order for two teak-based, stainless-steel washboards to use with the drum kit. “Some washboards were made out of

glass. They don’t last long, and the ones that were made out of metal last longer but for us, not quite long enough,” Fraser said with a laugh. That’s why the band had to go with something a little more durable. To catch an earful of this unmatched percussive masterpiece in action, you’ll have to attend a Genuine Jug Band show, which will prove to be a veritable blast from the past. “When we do that we walk through the evolution of music from the mid 1800s to about the 1940s,” Fraser said. The trio recently played the Abbotsford Berry Festival and has been invited to perform a few festivals south of the border. Unfortunately, the band laments, there aren’t too many venues around the Lower Mainland interested in paying for this authentically vintage live show. “Almost every time we’re hired, it’s a private party or a private company… so it’s more of a convention situation,” Fraser said. To catch a live performance of the Genuine Jug Band, check Thegenuinejugband.com for updates or to book a show. kalexandra@thenownewspaper.com

Comedy

Belly up, kids: Saturday event mixes ‘family fair and trade show’

Ladner comedian to open for Russell Peters at Rogers Arena DELTA — Ladner actor and comedian Darcy Michael will take the stage at Rogers Arena this weekend to open for Russell Peters. Michael is one of the finalists in SiriusXM’s Top Comic competition that gets to open for Peters on his “Almost Famous” tour across Canada. “The biggest audience I’ve played for before this is about 5,000, so the chance to play for a crowd four times that size is incredibly exciting,” Michael wrote in an e-mail to Delta Optimist, a Now sister Darcy Michael publication. “Adding that it’s in my hometown just puts me over the moon. Normally all my exciting shows happen in Montreal at Just for Laughs or Toronto, so to be able to have my family and friends at this one will be great.” He said he got the news from a buddy at XM and, naturally, didn’t believe him. “I still won’t be surprised if I show up to Rogers Arena on show day to find out I was just being punked.” Michael is in the midst of finishing a tour and packing for his move back to Toronto to film the second season of Spun Out, a workplace comedy on CTV. His summer dates have included Just for Laughs in Montreal, as well as Vancouver and Calgary Pride. Michael performed at the Comedy Mix in Vancouver from Sept. 18 to 20 before heading to Toronto for the Top Comic Finals today (Thursday, Sept. 25). The winner takes home $15,000. Asked about any plans for the cash if he wins, Michael said, “This is where I say something exciting like a vacation around the world, but I’ll probably do something boring like pay some student loan debts and maybe buy another month membership at the Ladner Rec Centre.” Michael opens for Russell Peters on Saturday, Sept. 27 at Rogers Arena in Vancouver at 8 p.m. Ticket prices range from $51.75 to $125. Visit Ticketmaster. ca for tickets. Michael’s website is Darcymichael. com.

TS KE N’T! C I T O T W AS L

Photo shows child at a recent Belly Baby and Kid Show, which will make its debut in Surrey on Saturday (Sept. 27) at Cloverdale Fairgrounds’ show barn.

We sort of add a whole other element to it. We bring in a Cirque du Soleil element to it; we bring in acrobats hanging from the ceiling.… will have interactive elements while local entrepreneurs and businesses related to kids are able to hawk their wares. “We really want to support local businesses as well as a few corporations ... to show what their products and services are like, and (what’s) available to parents in the community,” Collett said. “Normally, when you just go to a baby show, it’s catered more or less to a mom, and they have some great things apart from what’s readily available to you but it’s not an interactive activity-based (event) for families.” That’s not to say there isn’t something

there for expecting Amanda Collett moms as well. Moms and “mompreneurs” alike can get a belly rub from UCBaby or take a pre-natal fitness class with Fit4Two. Another bonus? The first 100 people to arrive at 10 a.m. will get a “swag bag” with more than $250 in samples, gift certificates and coupons. The Belly Baby and Kid Show takes place Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Cloverdale Fairgrounds’ show barn. Admission is $5, but kids up to 12 years of age are free. Event details are on the web at Bellybabykidshow.com.

CLOVERDALE — For many moms, it’s difficult to separate parenthood from personal career goals. That’s something Amanda Collett, self-proclaimed “mompreneur” with a background in corporate sales, found out after having two little tykes herself. “Some people look at motherhood like ‘OK, now you’re life’s over,’ and now you can’t be considered in business or your priority should be your kids which, yes, my priority is my children but this way I can mix both,” Collett said of combining motherhood and her most recent business endeavour, the Belly Baby and Kid Show. “And it’s fun, I get to be like a child and get creative and get caught up in pixie land ... It brings you back into imagination. That’s what the show’s about.” The Maple Ridge-based parent, who’s held the show in the Fraser Valley in previous years, is bringing her event to Surrey for the first time this Saturday (Sept. 27) in what she calls a “cross between a family fair and a trade show.” “We have Par-T-Perfect and they bring in the bouncy castles and the facepaints and the balloon animals that you would typically see in a festival,” Collett said of the event and some of the local businesses appearing. “We sort of add a whole other element to it. We bring in a Cirque du Soleil element to it; we bring in acrobats hanging from the ceiling, so when you first walk into the show, there will be acrobats who are performing and they’re actually kids, which is cool.” The family-based event is best suited for families with kids 10 and under, Collett said, with a range of activities and stages including a shipwreck, a pixie hollow and an underwater-themed grotto where Disney’s mermaid princess, Ariel, will make an appearance. What’s different about this family fair and trade show is that the six-hour event

Eagles return to nest after a bumpy start Now contributor Twitter @KBBenning

SURREY — After coming home from the BCHL Showcase with two defeats, the Surrey Eagles are looking forward to turning their season around on Friday (Sept. 26) in their home-opener against Chilliwack Chiefs. Coach Blaine Neufeld’s first game in charge of the team didn’t go as planned after the Eagles were thumped 11-2 last Friday (Sept. 19) by Penticton. Despite being outshot 21-6, the Eagles started the game in decent shape, keeping pace with this year’s potential BCHL champions after the first period ended 2-2. However, the following two periods were one-sided as the Vees scored nine more goals without an Eagles’ response. “It was a bit of an eye-opener come last Friday when we played Penticton, a very strong and skilful team,” Neufeld said. “We kind of learned that you cannot let up at any moment in the BCHL.”

Surrey’s second game, against Salmon Arm, saw the Eagles let a three-goal lead slip, losing 4-3 in overtime to the Silverbacks on Sunday (Sept. 21). Neufeld said that it was good to see the team bounce back after what happened against Penticton. “The positive part is that it was evident we have very strong character in our (dressing) room,” the coach added. The Eagles scored all their goals in the first period, with two coming from 16-year-old rookie Ty Westgard. “He’s a very special offensive player and he’s going to get a lot of attention around the league from other opponents, but also schools will be looking at him,” said Neufeld. This Friday, the Eagles are expecting a sell-out crowd at South Surrey Arena and the head coach said there might be “standing room” for anyone who wants to catch a glimpse of the game. The team will travel to Chilliwack on Saturday (Sept. 27) to play the Chiefs before returning home to face the Prince George Spruce Kings the following day.

Your journey starts here.

There’s oodles of passing power for getting past a spray-flinging semi-trailer on the highway

If travelling through Europe, keep your eyes peeled and you just might see two of the most desirable station wagons on the planet: the gorgeous Audi RS4 Avant and the ballistic RS6 Avant. Both are flared-out, incredibly powerful, shod with steamroller-sized rubber and, most importantly, not available here. No sir, there hasn’t been a fast wagon in Audi’s North American fleet since the departure of the muchmissed S4 Avant in 2008 - shame. The small Euro-wagon has been mostly supplanted by the compact crossover, with many buyers preferring the higher seating position and accepting the compromised handling that comes with it. The public has voted with their wallets, and Audi’s Q5 has just passed even perennial favourites like the 3-series and C-Class in total sales this year. But what if you want both the friendly aspects of Audi’s crossover with some of that hot-wagon driving fun? Here’s the latest car to join the S-stable, and the quad-tailpipes out back suggest this is more than just your average luxo-pod.

Design:

One of the nicer things about Ingolstadt’s hotter versions is that they’re rarely overwrought. As mentioned, the SQ5 gets the same quad-tailpipe treatment out back as does the strong-selling S4 sedan, and it also gets those tell-tale angled red-rectangles. Standard wheel-size is a biggish 20”, with optional 21” as an upgrade, but note that a 19” alloy will clear brakes for winter use. There’s a space-saver spare tire out back so no need to run expensive run-flats. Other than a few minor clues such as big, S-rated brake calipers peeking out from behind the upgraded alloys, the SQ5 would be hard to pick out from a crowd of front-driver 2.0L models. Like all Q5s, it has that signature Audi grille up front, large enough to make you wonder if the car runs on plankton, but the side profile is actually quite reserved.

In fact, the only real critique here are the badges that give the game away somewhat. The fender-mounted “V6T” in chrome is particularly egregious, although it’d be quick work to get rid of it.

Environment:

As it’s an S4 on stilts, you won’t be surprised to hear that the SQ5’s insides are practically copy-and-pasted from the sport sedan. Optional carbon-fibre trim sets off a cabin furnished with embossed leather sport seats up front, a flat-bottomed steering wheel, plenty of brushed-chrome accents, and at least half-a-dozen S-badges. It looks great, and the seats are quite comfortable without being so heavily bolstered that it’s hard to climb in. The trunk is a useful size for a vehicle that doesn’t seem all that large parked curb side, and the rear seats appear to have enough leg room for adults. Any drawbacks are down to the crossover upon which the SQ5 is based. Thus, the rear seats might look adult-friendly, but the seat bottoms are too low for long-legged comfort, and they aren’t as cushy as the accommodations up front. There’s also a huge transmission tunnel bisecting the back row, which makes this five-seater really more of a four-seater.

Performance:

Tucked in behind that gargantuan grille is an engine worthy of the S-badging: a 354hp supercharged 3.0L V6. It makes peak power at 6000rpm, but peak torque comes in a little later – 347lb/ft at 4000rpm.

horsepower gets to the ground with suction-cup grip, and the supercharged engine is extremely responsive. Start hammering the SQ5 through the curves, and it’s not quite as sharp as you could hope for. Like other Audi S-cars, the SQ5 has their Drive Select system, which allows the driver to change the dynamics of chassis, transmission, and engine note between three settings. Even in the most-aggressive Dynamic mode, the feel and feedback coming through that flat-bottomed steering wheel isn’t quite enough. There’s also a bit more body-roll than expected. Overall, the SQ5 isn’t a hard-core performance machine, but merely a sportier version of the Q5 – and that’s pretty much what you’d expect. It’s not a track car, it’s a road car, but it’s very good at its job. Fighting traffic, the higher seating position makes it really easy to see flow patterns up ahead and dodge left lanes clogged by someone turning. The transmission quickly kicks down and the all-wheel-drive grips when you’re making a quick turn onto a busy road, and there’s oodles of passing power for getting past a spray-flinging semi-trailer on the highway. It’s an all-rounder, and as that’s what a crossover is supposed to be, the SQ5 gets top marks. Gearheads might fondly dream of that unobtainable uber-fast Audi Avant instead, but in the real world, the SQ5 gets pretty much everything right.

Features:

Found elsewhere in the Audi range, this is a great engine, one of their best. It’s powerful enough to make a behemoth like the seven-seater Q7 feel spry, so when shoe-horned into something lighter, it’s just plain great.

Despite a price tag starting off at $57K and moving rapidly North from there, many options have to be selected to get the SQ5 you actually want. That great-looking carbon-fibre trim mentioned early on? That’ll be $500, thanks.

Er, that’s only a tad lighter. The SQ5 is actually a bit heavy, what with all the luxury goodies, strong chassis, and allwheel-drive differentials. It’s not a big vehicle, but it does tip the scales at over 2000kg.

Satellite Navigation is also an option, and an expensive one at that: $3200, though it does come bundled with front and rear parking assist. Blind spot monitoring is also available.

Even so, the eight-speed transmission and supercharged-V6 do a great job of getting this sporty crossover up and off the line. Audi’s Quattro all-wheel-drive means every last

Despite the power bump, the SQ5 is fairly reasonable in terms of fuel economy. Official ratings are 13.2L/100kms in city and 8.5L/100kms on the highway – while premium fuel is required, these are pretty accurate numbers.

SURREY — The City of Surrey is asking residents to “Take the Dip” on World Rivers Day this Sunday (Sept. 28). Hundreds of water-testing kits have been sent out to libraries and recreation centres for pickup, in an effort to increase environmental stewardship within the community. “I’m hoping for at least 1,000 participants. You can go into your own neighbourhood on your own time,” said environmental technologist Liana Ayach.“It only takes five to 10 minutes.” The questionnaire asks people to record the water’s temperature, its nitrate and turbidity levels, as well as its acidity. “Even if the water looks clean and clear, it may carry small amounts of pollutant or chemical that can affect the fish that live there,” she added.“We have over 1,400 kilometres of streams here, so this allows us to have more eyes on the rivers. If we see a problematic area, we can go out and do more lab testing.” The initiative, done in partnership with the World Watch Monitoring Challenge,

Richard Sterndale-Bennett, a team leader with Surrey’s Salmon Habitat Restoration Program (SHaRP), studies water in a vial included in the city’s “Take the Dip” kit. FreshWater Watch and Evergreen Canada, is a first for the city. The data collected will be used to create a spreadsheet, scheduled to be posted to the city’s website by late October. Ayach added she’ll be updating the info as results come in.“The more info we have, the better, because it’s really helpful to these organizations.” Each kit has a pre-stamped postcard to allow for an easy mail-in. They can be picked up at various places, including City Centre Library and the city hall info desk. For more information, visit Surrey.ca/ community/15653.aspx.
