Langley Players’ show all about party people Comedy and cocktails are served up in company’s fall production, which continues until Nov. 15 Roxanne Hooper

LANGLEY — There are definite ups and downs when bringing an 11-cast comedy to the stage for all to see, and Dave Williams confesses Cocktails at Pam’s has had its challenges. Despite some obstacles that have arisen since casting in mid-August, the 64-year-old drama club president and first-time director said he was excited to raise the curtain on this Stewart Lemoine-penned play starting last Thursday (Oct. 16) at Langley Playhouse. The cast size alone would expectedly be a hurdle, said the retired Walnut Grove educator. “Large casts are interesting to work with, however difficulty is not a factor of size but a factor of personalities,” or so Williams learned. “The actors were a great fit of personalities, they worked well together and seemed to form a cohesive group rather than a collection of 11 individuals,” he said. “Turns out a big cast in a small theatre – for a cocktail party – it’s exactly what you need.” That said, working with a cast of 11 was not without its difficulties. Williams has been working on and off stage with the Langley Players since 2007, lured in by his daughter Joanna and wife Arleen’s involvement and primarily taking on a lot of behind-the-scenes roles such as set design and construction. Despite his experience, this is his first turn at the helm, and trying to track each actor at all times proved harder than he expected. “There is simply too much to watch at any one time,” he said. And while this isn’t the largest cast ever for Langley Players, it certainly is one of the biggest and in Williams’ view, one of the funniest. He recounted when veteran actor Philip Hale (who plays Leon Bandelier) suddenly appeared on stage wearing a wig as a beard, then later that same day appeared with the same wig atop his head. “The rest of the cast carried on as if this was quite normal,” Williams recounted. For him, it was one of the funniest moments of the show thus far, and that

image came back to him frequently during rehearsals. While this is a comical production, it has not been without its moments of panic, as well. No director – regardless of how much experience he or she may have – can really be prepared for the sense of dread that rocked the Cocktails cast on Sept. 10. Lisa Marie Bresett, the actor playing Cynthia Dallas in the Stewart Lemoine comedy, hadn’t shown up for rehearsal. That was very out of character for her. “A phone call was made to her home and it was confirmed that she had left for rehearsal,” Williams said.
But she never showed. “The next morning we learned that she had been in a car accident on her way to rehearsal and was in the hospital.” Fortunately, he clarified, she was OK – nothing too serious. Her injuries, however, knocked her out of commission for a while, and she had to bow out of the production. A month before the play was set to open, Williams and producer Mary Renvall set about recasting the role. Fortunately, the director said, Emily Gingera was able to step into the role and ensure the production could proceed. Despite some turbulence, Williams is convinced this play will take off and be
popular with new and existing theatergoers. “When I saw the B.C. premiere of Cocktails at Pam’s last fall, I felt that the play would be a good fit for Langley Players. It is a true ensemble piece, involving many actors. It represents a situation where we have all been – although slightly exaggerated,” Williams said. Cocktails at Pam’s opened Thursday (Oct. 16) and runs until Nov. 15 – on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m., and Sundays at 2 p.m. – at Langley Playhouse, 4307 200th St., in Brookswood. Tickets are $15 and are available by emailing reservations@langleyplayers.com or by calling 604-534-7469.

Bus-sharing program for seniors rolls into Langley Ronda Payne
Langley Advance Twitter @langleyadvance
LANGLEY — The Bus Co-op is believed to be the first program of its kind in North America by its creators. Officially launched Wednesday (Oct. 15), three Langley seniors’ agencies have come together, with the help of Vancity and TransLink, to create an affordable bussharing program for seniors. Langley Seniors Resource Society (LSRS), Langley Care Society and Magnolia Gardens founded The Bus Coop. Members of the agencies, including Janice McTaggart of LSRS, and local dignitaries were on hand for the reveal of the bus donated by LSRC. “We know firsthand that owning and maintaining a bus can be a huge burden for seniors agencies so why not share our resources? The co-operative model really appealed to us because it is democratic, values-driven and very connected to the community,” McTaggart said. With seniors making up approximately 14 per cent of Langley’s population, and that number growing, the new co-op
Seniors, along with Langley Township Mayor Jack Froese and Langley City Acting Mayor Ted Schaefer, checked out the Bus Co-op’s new wheels. (Photo: RONDA PAYNE) allows seniors’ agencies to become a member of The Bus Co-op, book a bus, take a trip and return the bus. All fuel, insurance and maintenance are covered by the co-op, with groups paying $40 an hour to use the bus. Member
groups supply their own qualified driver. The co-op has two buses and is looking for other seniors’ agencies in the area to become members. There may be expansion of the program into Surrey and White Rock in the future.
r o t c o d a r fo g in h c r a ls se making you sick?
Vancity provided more than $165,000 in grants and financing for the program. Andy Broderick, vice-president of community investment with the credit union, was at the launch event. “This kind of endeavor is a great part of the community,” Broderick said. “We are honoured to be able to enter into a partnership with them (The Bus Co-op).” Broderick noted the fact that the new program is a co-operative made it particularly appealing to Vancity. “I commend TransLink for their generous donation of the bus,” said Acting City Mayor Ted Schaffer. “This will provide seniors with additional opportunities to get involved and stay connected.” TransLink will be providing an additional vehicle in the future. “From time to time, we are approached to provide a decommissioned bus to a charity or non-profit organization. In this case, we have arranged for an ‘end of service’ HandyDart bus to be donated to this group in November,” explained Cheryl Ziola, TransLink media relations manager. An aim of the program is to enable seniors’ agencies to ensure Langley seniors have more opportunities to be active.

‘The Illusion’ hits the stage Offering a magical take on the pitfalls of parenting, The Illusion tells the tale of one man’s search to be reunited with his son before it’s too late. The play, written by Pulitzer Prize winner Tony Kushner, opened Tuesday (Oct. 21) at Trinity Western University and continues until Nov. 1. “This show is somewhere between The Princess Bride and Pirates of the Caribbean,” said actor Bryan Sandberg, who provides plenty of comic relief as the laughable lunatic Matamore. The show is the TWU directorial debut for Kate Muchmore, a Langley resident who joined the faculty at the School of the Arts, Media + Culture in fall 2013.

Trinity Western University
Choral series PUSH, PULL OR DRAG launches with YOUR OLD GLASSES IN! ‘Shine’ concert LANGLEY — The new choral director at Trinity Western University is set to debut with an evening of harmony and light. This week, Joel Tranquilla introduces a new concert as part of a series of choral events. The concerts explore the theme of light and showcase 15 of the brightest singers at TWU. The hour-long evening performances, dubbed “Shine,” features sacred music in English, German, Icelandic and Afrikaans on Saturday, Oct. 25 in Langley, and on Saturday, Nov. 1 in Delta. Tranquilla, an awardwinning conductor and Langley resident who joined TWU’s School of the Arts, Media + Culture (SAMC) in August, has introduced “Shine” as part of an ambitious series of choral events. “I’m excited about the opportunity to do such a wide range of music from different time periods and in different languages,” said Tranquilla. “And chamber music is very intimate. It has a completely different feel than some our larger scale choral performances.” The concert, sponsored by Long & McQuade, features a Bach cantata based on the familiar chorale tune “Nun danket alle Gott” (“Now Thank We All Our God”), which will

Also on the program are works by James MacMillan, Moses Hogan, and SAMC’s own David Squires, Ph.D., as well as a set of pieces each based on Psalm 42 by Handel, Palestrina and Marty Nystrom.

It’s Official: The National Sleep Foundation Makes Its Selection Minnesota Man Miraculously Invents The World’s Most Comfortable omfortabll e Pillow P i llow and is Finally Validated! Chanhassen, MN - You know how the old saying goes: never count a person out. We say this in reference to the down-and-out character who made it to the heights of his dreams, pulling himself up by his bootstraps to achieve success. Are there real people with lives so incredible, they just need to be told? You be the judge. Meet Mike Lindell, an inventor and entrepreneur whose story is the stuff from which famous sayings are born. Lindell really enjoys sharing how he overcame the kind of life many others know well, too. His story goes like this: Throughout the 80s and 90s, Lindell struggled with addictions. With no regard for making choices to improve his life Lindell says, “I had taken my addictions to the limit and could not go on one more day living that way.” He recognized the desire for more and wanted to positively impact people. So overnight and with the grace of God, Mike Lindell stopped his addictive behavior and found a new way. A Better Path With a clear head and focused mind, Lindell set out to solve a problem he’d experienced since boyhood. He says, “Even as a youngster I suffered from a lack of good, quality sleep.” Lindell had gone to great lengths to get a good night’s sleep, even spending an entire paycheck at age 16 on an expensive pillow in hopes of curing his sleep woes but to no avail. Lindell would toss and turn at night, fold his pillow in half, use his arm for support, only to wake more tired than when he went to sleep. To study his issues more deeply, Lindell consulted with experts in the sleep industry and after gathering all the data (as well as and stories from friends), more than ever Lindell recognized and understood the harmful effects of poor sleep. Even more so, Lindell realized the effect of sleep interruptions permeate the lives of all walks of people. Lindell continues, “I was acutely aware of what was wrong but still needed to answer the biggest question of all, WHY?” Eureka Moment
discover the villain and cause of his sleep deprivation was none other than the pillow he was sleeping on. So Lindell tried “every pillow in the world,” but found common pillows did not provide adequate support for cervical alignment. “Most pillows cause sleep interruptions by going flat, heating up and causing you to toss and turn all night trying to readjust the pillows over to the cool side,” Lindell explains. “The effect prevents people from enjoying the uninterrupted REM sleep our bodies need to rejuvenate and heal.” Lindell theorized that a pillow providing proper support of the cervical nerves and vertebral arteries would allow users to get the deep healing sleep they want and need. So he set out to invent and manufacture “The World’s Most Comfortable Pillow.” Four Million People Can’t Be Wrong Year after year, Lindell marketed the pillows he’d created throughout the country at shows and expos during the day and worked alongside his family at night to make the pillows. He also spent time talking with consumers about their personal sleep frustrations. Lindell’s MyPillow is designed to conform to each individual’s support needs. It is washable and dryable, stays cool and is guaranteed not to go flat for 10 years. Lindell even provides a 60-day, no questions asked money-back guarantee. Though Lindell was originally told by the big bedding companies that his unorthodox business plan would put him out of business, his company now boasts more than 300 employees, maintains an A+ Better Business Bureau rating, and offers duty-free shipping from a distribution plant located in Manitoba, Canada. Recently MyPillow was selected as the National Sleep Foundation’s only ever official pillow, and in 2013 was awarded the prestigious QStar Award for “Product Concept of the Year” by QVC. Lindell himself has become well-recognized due to his frequent infomercial airings and guest appearances on shows such as Imus in the Morning. All this time later Lindell says he has learned the value of making choices that, “not only better my own life, but also improve the lives of others.” His is a story thatis so unique, it simply has to be true.
Process of elimination led Lindell to
Inventor, Manufacturer and C.E.O. of MyPillow®, Inc., Michael J. Lindell. Chanhassen, MN is where The World’s Most Comfortable Pillow is made and your best night’s sleep is created.
In the early days, Mike and family spent countless hours hand making each MyPillow. This dedication to “doing it right” has helped MyPillow to become a classic tale of success.
MyPillow’s patented fill adjusts to your individual needs. According to WebMD, a “Good Night’s Sleep” may help reduce the risk of: • • • •

Discover Great Sleep Just Like these People Jacqueline H. wrote; “I was diagnosed Olga B. wrote; “My life’s with various sleep issues. Until then I’d had no idea why my sleep was so interrupted throughout the night. I watch Imus each morning and heard endless testimonials about MyPillow. I took Imus’ advice and ordered a MyPillow. I now wake up rested and ready to conquer the day ahead. I never travel anywhere without MyPillow. Thank you for helping me remember what it’s like to sleep like a baby!”
mission to find a perfect pillow for me, has ended after 45 years! I can’t express just how much I love these pillows and then to make the deal even better, they’re washable, and get this... made in the U.S.A. to boot. You can’t top that. I have had mine for two years and they feel like the first night I slept on them, really!”

Scholarship in memory of Surrey teen killed in crash Adrian MacNair
Now staff Twitter @adrianmacnair
SURREY — A Clayton Heights Secondary teen who died in a car crash last week will have an athletic scholarship created in her name at her high school. Chantal MacLean, 17, was one of the victims who died on Thanksgiving Monday along with her boyfriend, Cody Kehler, also 17, on Highway 10 west of Scott Road in North Delta. Shakeira MacLean, Chantal’s older sister, said the scholarship is important for the family to carry on the rugby star’s memory. “The idea is we just want to be able to support a student with the same kind of characteristics and passion and determination Chantal demonstrated for so many years,” she said. Cody Kehler Shakeira said her sister was a lifelong soccer player, and although she was asked to join the rugby team for years, she didn’t try it until high school. But once she got onto the pitch she found her true calling. “My mom was saying she watched her first game and she was like, ‘Oh man, this is her sport.’ So, she really had a knack for it, even though she started late. She was determined.” Chantal even trained with the boys rugby team at Clayton Heights. Shakeira recalled one time when she went with the boy’s team to a fitness facility for conditioning. “The boys were throwing up and passing out and she was just lapping them,” said Shakeira, laughing. “She loved her sport

The two played a lot of the same sports, which is what made them a good pair, she added. “They understood their commitments to their team and themselves.” A celebration of Chantal’s life was planned for Wednesday, Oct. 22, at Christian Life Assembly in Langley.

Highway 10 median unlikely despite crash NORTH DELTA — Public calls to install a median on a dangerous portion of Highway 10 following a fatality will likely not be heeded by the province. Surrey teens Chantal MacLean and Cody Kehler died Oct. 13 on the curve, west of Scott Road in North Delta, prompting the public to call for protective barriers between the fourlanes of traffic. While a spokesman for the ministry of transportation and infrastructure expressed condolences to the accident victims, no changes are planned for the provincial roadway. “There is currently insufficient room to add median barriers to this section of highway,” the spokesperson said. “In order to meet safety requirements, the highway would need to be widened by about two to three metres to accommodate the placement of a median barrier.” Delta Police Sgt. Sarah Swallow said a median would be a traffic-management initiative supported by police. “Properly separating traffic has the effect of reducing head-on collisions, and this is something we have seen in the case of the medians installed at the base of Nordel Way,” she said. “However, our focus as police still remains on education and enforcement initiatives for drivers to limit preventable collisions.” The speed limit on that section of road is 80 km/h, although some drivers exceed that speed significantly, which can result in disastrous consequences on the curve, particularly in rainy weather. The curve on Highway 10 is an “old chestnut” said Mayor Lois Jackson, adding it’s been discussed by many previous councils. Since the latest crash, Delta has contacted the ministry once again requesting something be done for commuter safety.

Shakeira said earlier this week that everyone was welcome to join the family, regardless of how well (or not) they knew Chantal personally. “This is a time to celebrate her spirit – so if you feel connected to her from the stories you’ve heard, or maybe she tackled you once on the field, or simply smiled at you in the hallway, feel welcome to join us.” Those wishing to attend Cody Kehler’s celebration of life are welcome to join the family at the same venue on Friday, Oct. 24. If you’d like to contribute to the Chantal MacLean Scholarship Fund you can leave cheques or deposits at any Coast Capital Savings Branch.

Surrey Paralympian named ambassador for Right to Play Kyle Benning
Now contributor Twitter @kbbenning
NEWTON — Students at Strawberry Hill Elementary don’t normally meet athletes who have competed at the highest level of amateur sport, but last Friday (Oct. 17) was an exception. Ashley Gowanlock, Ashley Gowanlock a member of Team Canada’s Paralympic dressage team, spent last week visiting schools across Surrey speaking to students about Right To Play. Gowanlock, 27, was named an ambassador of the non-governmental organization, which educates children across the world on healthy living practices. The Fleetwood resident spoke to the students about her struggles leading up to the 2012 Paralympic Games in London, and is glad to be part of Right To Play. “I’ve been following Right to Play for a
while now and I just love the program. It’s just kids and sports – two things that I love – and just thinking outside of yourself,” she said. Gowanlock added that the students bring a lot of energy and passion when they meet her. “They get really excited. They want to play, want to get involved; they want to know about the sports. “It’s way more fun than I was anticipating. (There are) so many kids (with) so much enthusiasm,” she said. Even though she finished in the top 10 in all three of the events she competed in at the London Games, Gowanlock said the best part about it was when she met disabled children and their families. Gowanlock suffers from cerebral palsy and uses a cane, named Patrick, to walk. Dressage is a sport where horse and rider work together to complete a series of memorized movements. Judges rate the performance of horse and rider on a 10point scale. Gowanlock said she is preparing for the 2016 Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and hopes to bring home a medal.

‘Standing Tall’ award in Surrey woman’s name Adrian MacNair
Now staff Twitter @adrianmacnair
PITT MEADOWS — A South Surrey woman who succumbed to cancer last October is being honoured with an education award in her memory. The 2012 Coast Capital Savings Standing Tall Award winner, Beth Hutchinson, passed away Oct. 25, 2013, at the age of 20 after a long battle with a cancerous brain tumour. Her father, David Hutchinson, said Beth underwent five surgeries in an attempt to remove the cancer. During that struggle she applied to and completed one semester at UBC Okanagan campus before the tumour returned. Hutchinson said it was Beth’s dream to become a human rights lawyer. “She wanted to continue to be educated and she wanted to continue to do things as normal and work as hard as she could,” said Hutchinson, who added he was very proud when Coast Capital Savings approached him about naming the award after his daughter. Beth was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2009, just two weeks before losing her mother to the same deadly disease. In 2011, she was chosen as a recipient of the Standing Tall awards, however the recurrence of her cancer meant school had
to be postponed so she was unable to accept the award that year. When it became clear that she was probably not going to survive cancer, Beth began a “bucket list” of things to do before she died, including going skydiving in Abbotsford last year. “She tried to just keep doing things,” said Hutchinson. “She continued as long as she could, which is amazing.” She posted several videos to YouTube before she died, including her bucket list and her struggle to get better Beth Hutchinson access to medical marijuana, which she said helped greatly alleviate pain. This year’s winner of the Beth Hutchinson Standing Tall Award is Maple Ridge resident Emily King, who obtained her business degree while battling an aggressive brain tumour. Hutchinson said King e-mailed him before the presenting of the award to learn more about his daughter. “There’s a number of things about her that reminded me of my daughter. She’s such a lovely girl and she’s also struggling through issues and I felt it honoured both her and my

daughter at the same time.” King received the award in recognition of her determination to obtain a degree in business, despite battling an aggressive meningiomal brain tumour. She plans to enter the Bachelor of Business Administration program through the Beedie School of Business at Simon Fraser University this fall. Hutchinson will have a celebration and reflection of Beth’s life on Saturday, Oct. 25. “I hope to take positives out of that instead of just wallowing in self-pity and just get on with life,” he said. Coast Capital Savings has awarded 25 students Standing Tall awards valued at $5,000 each. The awards are given to extraordinary youth who have made a positive impact on their communities in the face of personal adversity. amacnair@thenownewspaper.com
$100K for Homelessness and Housing Society SURREY — B&B Contracting has committed to donating $100,000 to Surrey Homelessness & Housing Society.

Also, Ryan and Cynthia Beedie have made a $50,000 donation to the society to assist with renovations to a pair of transition houses. The event’s Heroes of the Homelessness Awards went to Ms. Bentley’s “Firsties,” dentists Carl Hensel and Kary Taylor at Key Housing, Robert Bosa and Bill Reid (posthumous).

Surrey City Development Corporation (SCDC) is behind projects such as Central City Brewing’s facility in Bridgeview. (Photo: KEVIN HILL)
WHAT DO SURREY MAYORAL CANDIDATES PLAN FOR SCDC? Opinions vary on organization with role ‘to make some money for the city and to stimulate the economy’ STORY BY AMY REID
S
urrey’s mayoral candidates have a variety of plans for the city’s development corporation. The 100-per-cent city-owned Surrey City Development Corporation (SCDC), which has been around since 2007, is behind projects such as the new Surrey City Hall and the built-to-suit brewery in Bridgeview for Central City Brewing. “Really, our role is to make some money for the city and to stimulate economic growth,” said SCDC’s acting CEO Doug Avis. Avis said the 3 Civic Plaza project, which will combine retail, hotel office and residential space, is a good example of that. The corporation donated the land and is going to end up being a 30 per cent partner with Century Group, he explained. Avis said it will bring a high-end hotel to the area, helping to “solidify the new downtown,” and noted that Kwantlen Polytechnic University is coming into the office portion of the development. “So we’re bringing more above-secondary-level education into this area, which will be a boost for the area,” he said. Avis also pointed to the Campbell Heights industrial project. “We bought 250 acres from the province and we’re developing that out as a land developer. We’ve
actually sold about half of the site now to various users and some developers, and we’re making a lot of money and we’re also bringing a lot of jobs to Surrey,” he stated.
WHAT WILL MAYORAL CANDIDATES DO WITH SCDC?
“not yet considered self-sustaining.” “What that means is, literally, it’s a parasite of the city. The city is going to have to continue to pump money into this corporation for it to survive,” he noted. SCDC’s Chief Financial Officer Emily Taylor dismissed the notion that the city is taking a loss. “I’d say that’s a wrong way to interpret the auditor’s statement. They’re not saying we’re a drain on the city. What that represents is the fact that when we get land from the city, they give it to us at cost, it doesn’t mean they’re taking a loss,” she said. As for the company’s profits, it saw more than $6 million in profits in 2013, up from roughly $4.9 million in 2012, she explained, as outlined under “annual surplus from operations” in SCDC’s 2013 financial report. When it comes to the company’s net debt ($96 million in 2013), Taylor said the report can be confusing. Net debt, she explained, excludes SCDC’s “non-financial assets” of $109 million, which

Doug McCallum has been the harshest critic of SCDC during Surrey’s mayoral race, saying if elected, he would disband the company over a one-year period and begin to liquidate assets. “It’s not a mandate of the city or Surrey residents to develop a corporation – and use their money – to be in speculative real estate ventures,” he said. McCallum said his other concern is that there is an unfair advantage to the corporation in the development industry. He says the company is in a “money-losing situation.” “It has $96 million in debt and $70 million of that is owed to the city,” he said. McCallum also pointed to the auditor’s comments on SCDC’s last financial statement, which says it is

represent income properties as well as real estate projects under development. “If they were for sale, they would end up in the financial assets,” thus reducing the net debt, she said. As well, Taylor said the company redeemed a number of shares in 2013: $41 million roughly, $37 million of which was in exchange for promissory notes issued by the city. The exchange of shares for promissory notes was a re-arrangement of project financing which had the effect of increasing net debt and simultaneously reducing accumulated surplus. “It’s difficult to understand, I know, and I can see why it’s confusing when Doug’s looking at it.” She also noted the company paid a $4.5 million dividend to the City of Surrey in 2013 and will be paying another $4.5 million dividend to the city in 2014. In stark contrast to McCallum’s sentiment, current councillor and Surrey First mayoral candidate Linda Hepner says SCDC would continue on the same path if she’s elected. “We could not have done what we did in City Centre without owning that land to be able to transform it into what it is today. We can do that in other areas of the city. For example, if we had that in Newton to the same degree in City Centre, we could make things happen a whole lot faster,” Hepner stated. As well, Hepner said the city could not have gone through with the Build Surrey program without SCDC, and the $4.5 million dividend it provides to the city. To Hepner, having a development corporation is about thinking like a big city, pointing to examples such as Winnipeg, Toronto and Calgary. “It’s a vision that I think is showing the residents of Surrey that we’re managing their assets – which is the property – and we’re not selling it to balance a budget. We’re utilizing it to make money for you and I to have a lower tax base.” Is it an advantage to the developer? “Probably not,” Hepner stated. Rather, the advantage is to taxpayers, she said. Hepner believes McCallum has “a twisted view” of SCDC. “When he’s saying it’s draining the city of money, we transfer that property over to SCDC, but we’re still the 100 per cent shareholders. It’s a game in technicality…. I think it’s a bit of smoke and mirrors what his language is.” And landing between McCallum and Hepner is One Surrey mayoral candidate Barinder Rasode, who says she wouldn’t eliminate the corporation, but would change its mandate. “SCDC should be a department of the city that looks at maintaining city-owned land but then only partnering on projects that enhance things under our Sustainability Charter, such as under the social arm of the Sustainability Charter.”
I don’t think SCDC should have a mandate that is seen as direct competition to businesses in the free market, which I think it does. I don’t think we should be investing taxpayers dollars in high-risk investments like strip malls.

She’d like the city to look at creating a “centre of caring” that could house such organizations as the Surrey Food Bank or Surrey Christmas Bureau. Rasode said she’s John Wolanski hearing over and over that “SCDC has definitely overstepped its mandate.” “I don’t think SCDC should have a mandate that is seen as direct competition to businesses in the free market, which I think it does,” she said. “I don’t think we should be investing taxpayers dollars in high-risk investments like strip malls.” Mayoral hopeful Vikram Bajwa believes SCDC is a good thing for the city, but would
like it to focus on building a Surrey airport. “Our population is going to be more than Vancouver’s within five years,” Bajwa said.“That will bring a lot of jobs and it will put Surrey on the map like Vancouver and Toronto. Right now we’re limited.” Asked where an airport could go, Bajwa said there’s land near the U.S. border crossing and that would be the “ideal place.” Independent mayoral candidate Grant Rice described himself as a “fairly harsh critic” of SCDC over the years. “What I find most worrisome is the fact that they’re in some pretty risky ventures,” he said, such as the built-to-suit brewery. Rice would like to refocus the company and have it build affordable rental housing. “We would take the fees from secondary suites that we collect, and we would funnel those into an affordable housing strategy where we would build non-market and market housing in the city,” he explained,“something that the private sector is not interested in doing.” Independent mayoral candidate John Edwards said he would scale back the work SCDC does, not get rid of the company completely. “I think I would reduce the amount of money that we’re spending on that organization. Take some of that funding and invest in youth programs and other social development issues as well,” he said. While he believes SCDC has done good work, he thinks youth should become more of a priority to the city. Mayoral candidate John Wolanski, like McCallum, says he would disband the corporation. He said the “private sector should assume the risk, not the taxpayer,” adding the city shouldn’t be involved in risky ventures. “The whole thing is that the government’s starting to get into things they shouldn’t,” he stated. To phase out the corporation, Wolanski said he would follow through with any existing contracts.“You can’t just throw people out.”

Rasode announces field hockey development plan for Surrey Kyle Benning
Now contributor Twitter @kbbenning
NEWTON — Barinder Rasode and the One Surrey team were at Tamanawis Park Monday (Oct. 20) to announce their plan to build a third field at the site for field hockey if she gets elected. Rasode estimates the field would cost approximately $3 million and would make the park the “hub of field hockey in North America.” “With another field, we will be the biggest and best location to nurture local talent,” she said. Asked about the location of the proposed field, Rasode said a third pitch at Tamanawis Park would create a field hockey “community.” “When you have broken off fields in different areas, it doesn’t create that culture of community,” said the mayoral candidate. “One thing that we’ve learned is the second family to lots of lots of kids is their sporting community. To have that in one facility really adds value to that.” Priya Randhawa, a member of the women’s junior national field hockey team, is fully backing the plan for another field. “I think it would help tremendously because right now with all of the clubs, it gets busy. We can’t bring any more kids into the program because we don’t have the facilities and practice times get shorter and shorter every year. I think with another field it would help open it up and bring more children into it,” Randhawa said. The 19-year-old Surrey resident was part of the junior women’s team that finished 13th at the 2013 Women’s Junior World Cup in Germany. Randhawa, who is currently training with the senior women’s national team, said there is no other facility like this in Surrey and mentioned that a turf field isn’t up to par with the fields at Tamanawis Park.

WHAT DOES SCDC THINK ABOUT THE POTENTIAL CHANGES?
Avis said regardless of the talks going on during the election about SCDC’s future, for now, it’s business as usual for the company. “It’s just speculation from our perspective,” he said, adding,“If there’s going to be other mandates down the road… and the city wants us to do that, we’ll do that.” Avis said it puzzles him that there’s a perception the company is losing money or costing the city money. He said the reality is totally different. “We hold more assets than liabilities,” he noted.“We’re a profitable company and we’re financially a lot stronger than what has been pointed out.” See SCDC’s financial statements online at Scdc.ca.

There will be lots of polls in this election, but form your own opinions
E
verybody wants to know the easy way. The Greeks had their oracles, Etruscans used to consult animal entrails, the Turks read coffee grounds and Zulus would roll the bones. Some people still consult their zodiac charts hoping for a glimpse into what may come to pass in their near future. Opinion pollsters, pundits and the like would likely not be too chuffed at being lumped in with the above, but given the monumental misreading of the last provincial election’s outcome – which did not turn into an NDP victory as widely predicted but rather the re-affirmation of BC Liberal Party’s rule – you’ve got to wonder about the veracity. We’ve been hearing a lot about political polls lately in the Surrey civic election. It’s quite the horse race. Mainstreet Technologies had mayoral candidate Doug McCallum enjoying the support of 22 per cent of decided voters, and Linda Hepner with 20 per cent and Barinder Rasode with eight. The undecided were 45 per cent, while five per cent indicated they’ll vote for somebody else. Conversely, Innovative Research had 27 per cent of voters leaning Hepner’s way, with 22 per cent for McCallum and 15 for Rasode. Then again, Insights West had McCallum at 40 per cent, Hepner with 32 and Rasode with 21. There will undoubtedly be more survey results to ponder as the election campaigning continues. It’s fun candy for political junkies. But intriguing as survey results can be, it’s most important that we as voters keep our own counsel as we reflect upon who deserves our vote, and who does not. And we determine that not by consulting oracles, astrologers, coffee grounds, entrails, bones and what not. Rather, we arrive at our answer by paying attention, learning what each candidate has to offer – particularly concerning issues near and dear to ourselves – and then hopefully making well-reasoned choices.

We’re failing miserably with the mentally ill The Editor, We have all failed by allowing government, namely the health ministry, to turn a blind eye to the thousands of ill citizens living with concurrent disorders. The public should be outraged that our police resources have become the front line for mental health clients. We traumatize this vulnerable group through the justice system, do nothing to treat them and wonder why nothing changes. We have to change now. Stand up and speak out because one day this might be your child. Wake up to the reality; most people are homeless because they are ill. Tell your politicians this is unacceptable. Best practices for our mentally ill are being comprised by internal B.S. within health authorities, communication is
impossible under the guise of privacy laws and the public’s point of view is based on data from 30 years ago. Mental health issues are growing to epidemic proportions; the denial is within all walks of life. Our hospitals are constantly turning away seriously ill people because they suffer from mental health and addiction. Yes, this happens daily at Surrey Memorial. Addiction is a mental health issue. If you wonder why policing has reduced funds to go after the bad guys, this is why. The Conservatives’ “tough on crime” strategy will only further harm these people, who are not of sound mind and who lack insight to help themselves. What’s more, the large majority of Canadian police chiefs state, “Don’t build

more jails, build hospitals.” We should only be judged based on how we treat our most vulnerable! We are failing miserably with this population group. All stakeholders agree but are limited to change until we experience a major paradigm shift with how we think about our mentally ill in general, especially in the justice system. More than 30 per cent of people incarcerated in the justice system are ill. And we continue to put these powerless souls in jail. Build treatment centres for these citizens at all costs. After all, a section of the B.C. Charter of Rights states all residents are entitled to health care services – it’s the law. Let’s enforce this one. Gord Bylo, Surrey

‘Drive safe’ isn’t just an expression, it’s a call to action UncommonSense Adrian MacNair
E
ver since I began working at the Now in September, I’ve had to commute to work. It was a big change for me, since I’d been spoiled by living and working in Tsawwassen. Now, I have a 60-kilometre round-trip each day, and that means I’ve rejoined the legion of drivers who seem hellbent on being in a horrific accident. It was just after seven in the morning this rain-soaked Monday when a slowdown of traffic appeared on the South Fraser Perimeter Road eastbound. Emergency lights could be seen flashing through my bleary windshield, and cars were moving over to the passing lane to avoid the scene. As I passed by, I glanced at the wreckage. A distraught woman was speaking to police in front of a blue compact facing the wrong direction, the front end completely crumpled. Nearby, a bulky RV’s back bumper bore the tell-tale signs of collision. Once beyond the accident scene, I could
see the drivers return to normal speed, and then exceed normal speed and shift into high speed. It wasn’t long before they were all out of sight. I sensed a major disconnect here. People saw the wreckage, the emergency crews, the crying woman, but nowhere in that picture did they seem to interpose themselves. Under no circumstances could they imagine their car in that scene. If they had, there’s no way they would have started driving 120 km/h in an 80 zone on slick roads with poor visibility. Last Friday, I was similarly stunned to see cars passing me at high speeds on the SFPR during what I can only describe as a torrential downpour. Forgive me if I say I’m a little trepidatious about taking corners at high speed in the pouring rain. After all, a couple of Surrey teenagers lost their lives last week on a dangerous corner at Highway 10 and Scott Road in similar conditions. In fact, there are dozens of examples of car crashes every single day throughout the Lower Mainland where speed and poor road conditions conspire to create tragedy. Add distracted driving into the mix and it’s no wonder there are so many accidents. Some of the crazy things I’ve seen since
Most people probably don’t get into their cars thinking they’re going to get into a serious accident that day. But maybe they should. commuting to Surrey include: going into a left-turn lane for use as a passing lane, only to cut back into traffic; last-second lane changes; signalling left and going right, or not signalling at all; tail-gating in rainy weather; appalling speeds in school zones. Most people probably don’t get into their cars thinking they’re going to get into a serious accident that day. But maybe they should. According to Transport Canada, there are more than 2,200 fatalities from motor vehicles in the country every year, including 11,200 serious injuries, and more than 170,600 less serious injuries. And Statistics Canada confirms that unintentional accidents are the fifth leading cause of death, after cancer, heart disease, stroke and respiratory diseases, but before
diabetes and Alzheimer’s. Bad driving, it would appear, is also a disease. You’ve already heard that distracted driving, impaired driving and speeding are the leading causes of death among fatal traffic accidents in B.C. But did you know that ICBC also tracks “high-risk driving behaviour” causing death? This refers to things like failing to yield right-of-way, tailgating, ignoring traffic signals or stop signs and improper passing and speed. According to ICBC, there were 116 fatalities in the province in 2013 due to the sort of high-risk driving seen on roads in the Lower Mainland every single day. You’ve got to wonder if all this speeding around is really worth it. Last I checked, my house or workplace don’t move locations on a daily basis. This means finding out how long it takes to commute, getting up a few minutes earlier and driving at a reasonable pace. You don’t want your family receiving a visit from police telling them you didn’t make it home and you never will. Please, for the sake of those who love you, drive safe.

The ‘bottom line’: community shuttle is good for White Rock The Editor, I am writing this letter to voice my opinion and concerns and also those of many White Rock residents who use the transit system, regarding the issue of reduced service on the community shuttle buses. I moved to the White Rock area from the east coast at the beginning of August and was thrilled that this wonderful commuter service was available. Shortly after, I was shocked to see the signs of the reduced service posted on some bus stop poles
and wondered how the “powers that be” came to the conclusion that this service needed to be reduced – certainly not by riding the shuttle buses and observing the seniors, tourists, workers, moms and schoolchildren who use this service! And if they relied on the Compass Card information (as I was told by one bus driver) to base their decision on, it’s not really accurate. I was told the purpose of tapping the card when you get on, and also tapping when you get off, was supposed to provide data

Sometimes it’s not about “bottom line” decisions but doing what is “morally right.” I invite those who make the decisions to come and actually see for themselves how these reduced services are affecting the residents of White Rock, many of them seniors. Oh, and did I mention that winter is coming and that some of these two-hour waits will take place in wet, cold, windy and slippery conditions? Christine Branker, White Rock
Translink service areas and should be a factor in decision-making. With these new schedules, it is now more difficult to make connections and also the buses are fuller. A missed connection now is not just over an hour wait but also can translate to a missed appointment. I realize that this decision to reduce schedules was based on some type of statistical data regarding ridership. However, beyond the paper facts, there is a humanity involved – the same people who create a wonderful
as to how often and where this transit service was used. During my frequent use of the shuttle buses, only twice did I see anyone tap off when they left the bus. I myself have forgotten to tap off at least 90 per cent of the time, and almost no one taps off upon exiting. It’s hard to base decisions on that type of data, which is not accurate. Since moving here, I have realized that White Rock is a city of extreme slopes and steep roads, all in a very concentrated area. This is not typical of other

a dozen bag full of stinky, rotten tomatoes go to the very angry 502 bus driver, a woman who kept yelling at people to stop holding the bars on the back door. It is very crowded on the bus – what do you expect us to do, fall and break our heads? You’ve been reported anyway, so that way it will teach you a lesson to respect your transit users. rotten tomatoes to the fools who designed and accepted the plans to put in a planter instead of a sidewalk at the entrance to the mall in Guildford, on 105th Avenue at 150th Street. Now people are walking on the road. Shame on you all! a huge crate of nasty, rotten tomatoes to the low-lifers who are going around, house to house, stealing Halloween pumpkins. I spend a lot of time setting up my home for the kids, but I’m not sure I will do it this year – wouldn’t want to have it all stolen or vandalized. Buy your own $5 pumpkin! rotten tomatoes should be thrown at people 16 years and over who ride bicycles and motor scooters on sidewalks. Also, those who ride without helmets, ride in crosswalks, make illegal lane changes, ride on the left side of the road, ride their bicycles against traffic and basically don’t follow the rules of the road. Some of this is downright dangerous. All this when there is a bicycle lane on the road made especially for them. rotten tomatoes go out to the stupid man for trespassing on our complex and disturbing our neighbours over a complaint about our dogs. What gives you the right to harass us and call strata and threaten us? If you don’t like it, shut up and move away – or complain about the barking dogs that live in your own complex!

Housing
Surrey without winter shelter for a second year in a row Adrian MacNair
Now staff Twitter @adrianmacnair
SURREY — The cold days of winter are nearly upon Surrey’s homeless population, but after failing to find a suitable location for a winter shelter the city will have to once again go without. Developed by the City of Surrey in 2012 and administrated by Keys: Housing and Health Solutions, the 40-bed Winter Shelter program in 2012-13 provided 24hour shelter to 157 people over a span of six months. The successful program led 72 people to finding long-term housing options. But since the landowner sold the property to a developer in 2013 the city has been unable to find a new location, despite an exhaustive search. According to a council report, staff explored 12 locations in 2013 and a further five in 2014 but ran into concerns expressed by either potential landlords or adjacent tenants. “I can’t tell you how disappointed I am about that,” said Vera LeFranc, manager of Surrey Homelessness and Housing Society and a Surrey First council candidate. “One thing that winter shelters really allow is for full support of homeless folks while they get back on their feet during the winter.” LeFranc said the shelters prevent the more visible homeless presence on the streets, which makes them more suitable than not having them at all. “I think there’s a lack of understanding of what it means to have a shelter and that’s kind of heartbreaking,” she said. Shayne Williams, who was executive director of Keys: Housing and Health Solutions in Surrey for four years and spent 11 years as an outreach worker in the troubled Whalley neighbourhood, expressed concern about what the council report called “neighbourhood integration issues.” “I think there’s been a long history of homelessness, and street homelessness in particular, in the Surrey North community and that, unfortunately, hasn’t been addressed the way it should be in a proactive manner in terms of investment in social housing and in trying intervention prior to folks becoming street-entrenched,” said Williams, referring to people who are no longer willing to leave the streets even when offered accommodation. Williams said some low-income people who “look homeless” are often judged as a danger by community, even when they’re “precariously housed” and perhaps vulnerable to homelessness. “The stereotype of crime and safety is,
The streets of Whalley are home to the majority of Surrey’s homeless people. (Photo: KEVIN HILL) I think, coupling with some of the local, mayoral candidates and some of their platforms,” he said. Surrey participates in the province’s extreme weather response program from Nov. 1 to March 31 to house the homeless in various outreach centres when the temperatures dip below zero Celsius. But without a 24-hour Winter Shelter the options for Surrey’s homeless will be limited. Jonquil Hallgate of Surrey Urban Mission said extreme weather shelters are only open at night, leaving the homeless to fend for themselves during the day. When asked about “neighbourhood integration” she said it’s understandable that people who work hard for a living want to live in a safe environment out of the sight of the homeless. “Even if you have the biggest heart on the planet, seeing somebody pulling their belongings down the street or hanging around in a neighbourhood simply because they have nowhere to go isn’t something that anybody is comfortable with.” Hallgate said that some of the existing shelters, which are housed in old buildings, can’t equip some of the mobility-challenged homeless, or those who have voluntarily become homeless rather than give up their pets. Others are unwilling to go somewhere they believe their belongings won’t be safe. “Many because they’re living with mental illness and if they were living indoors they’d probably be considered a hoarder,” said Hallgate. The city currently has 107 permanent shelter spaces and 48 beds for women in safe or transition houses. According to the last Surrey homeless count in the spring, there
are 140 unsheltered people of just over 400 total homeless. LeFranc said Surrey will be exploring two main options to tackling homelessness. The primary focus on a “Housing First” model means moving homeless directly in permanent housing, while also renovating existing shelters to create additional space for the remaining unsheltered homeless. “We have to understand that there are some people in our community who we aren’t able to work with until they come in from the cold in the wintertime,” said LeFranc. “So those folks we want to make sure we have an opportunity to work with them rather than having them sleeping rough and putting themselves at risk and putting themselves in danger.” Hallgate said the City of Surrey’s attempts to eradicate homelessness is “admirable” but the challenge is to get cooperation on funding for housing from various levels of government. “The federal government doesn’t have an affordable housing plan, it doesn’t have a poverty reduction plan, so the federal dollars are slow to come, if at all.” Hallgate said the city’s contribution to housing is usually donating land but without the money to build infrastructure to support provincial programs there’s a gap in services for the homeless. In the meantime, the city has identified a location for a new purpose-built shelter and transitional housing facility on 96th Avenue near Surrey Memorial Hospital. However, site suitability, neighbourhood integration, and cost implications would be subject to a public hearing process, not expected until the spring. amacnair@thenownewspaper.com
Homeless prevention program announced in Surrey SURREY — A new funding initiative has been announced that would help keep at-risk people in Surrey and other communities from becoming homeless. Federal and provincial representatives were on hand at Surrey’s Hyland House Friday (Oct. 17) to announce a new program designed to help out some of the most at-risk groups. Called the Homeless Prevention Program, the initiative will see the feds and province come up with an estimated $62.5 million over the next five years to provide rent supplements for those at risk of becoming homeless. The four groups specifically targeted by the initiative are women fleeing violent situations, youth aging out of foster care, those leaving the hospital and correctional system, and aboriginal people. The idea is to provide funding to vulnerable groups in the form of rent assistance rather than trying to commit funds to purpose-built homes and shelters, and an estimated 4,000 will be served by the program in the next half-decade. Surrey will be one of six communities served by the program, which is estimated to expand to 30 communities in later years. “Rent supplements offer a more flexible option for many people because they can choose where to live based on what suits their needs,” said deputy premier and minister of housing Rich Coleman. “The Homeless Prevention Program builds on our success with other rental assistance programs aimed at addressing homelessness by taking a more proactive approach and helping people in crisis.” Federal minister of state Candice Bergen was also on hand, saying, “our government has taken action to invest in housing and initiatives to combat homelessness because we recognize that having safe, permanent housing is an important first step towards a new transition in life.” Several of Surrey First’s councillors, including Linda Hepner, Judy Villeneuve and council-hopefuls Vera LeFranc and Dave Woods were also in attendance. Villeneuve, who sits as president on the city’s homeless and housing society said the announcement was significant for Surrey. “It’s so important that these kinds of dollars come into our community,” she said. “$12.5 million per year for that kind of funding is great and we’re really pleased to know that funding will be coming into our community. It’s often that that kind of funding is what people need to leave an abusive situation or help others transition from being on the verge of homelessness.” Christopher Poon

Wind storm leaves thousands Drug enforcer found dead in without power on Wednesday Whalley basement suite Tiffany Crawford
Vancouver Sun Twitter @tiffanycrawford13
SURREY — A wind storm lashed B.C.’s south coast overnight Tuesday, knocking down trees and causing road closures, ferry delays and power outages for tens of thousands of residents. A Surrey mother and her five-year-old child were briefly trapped after a tree crashed through the bedroom. Surrey Fire battalion chief Reo Jerome said the incident happened shortly before 11 p.m. in the 12900-block of 58th Avenue. Emergency crews arrived and helped the mother and child out of the house. He said the woman, her husband and the child were shaken but otherwise okay. The house has significant damage, he added. Jerome said Surrey Fire received 250 calls overnight, most of which were about branches down on power lines, but there were also some fire-related calls, minor injury reports and trees down on the railway tracks. As the storm settled early Wednesday
morning, more than 30,000 BC Hydro customers were still without power in Metro Vancouver, after more than 80,000 were without electricity overnight. As of 8 a.m. Wednesday, BC Hydro reported that 23,000 Surrey residents were still without power. Mora Scott, a spokeswoman with BC Hydro, said 25 significant power lines were knocked down by trees, wind and branches. She said crews worked overnight and hope to have most of the power restored by noon. “Did we have a storm in Vancouver overnight or something? Debris and branches all over the roads this morning,” tweets Landon, while emergency scanner reports on Twitter reported several trees coming down on homes in Surrey. Radio traffic reports said 148th Street in Surrey was closed Wednesday morning because of a power line and tree down on the road. Meteorologists say storms are lining up over the northern Pacific, and will hit B.C. and the northwestern United States this week into early next week.

debt enforcer known for splitting his victims’ foreheads with a single punch. Larry Mizen, 54, was killed in a basement suite in the 11000-block of 136th Street on Sunday night. Police had not confirmed or denied by press time rumours that Mizen was stabbed and his neck had been broken. “We won’t be speaking to his injuries,” said Sgt. Jennifer Pound, spokewoman for the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team. “Autopsy results will have to confirm.” Police have yet to identify a suspect. Over the years Mizen had been before the courts on charges of uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm, theft, assault, unlawful confinement, extortion, assault with a weapon, robbery, assault causing bodily harm, possessing a weapon, disobeying court orders, possession of a controlled substance and possession for the purpose of trafficking.

DELTA — A Delta Police constable has been charged with second-degree murder stemming from an incident that took place nearly two years ago. The Criminal Justice Branch has charged Const. Jordan MacWilliams by direct indictment in the death of Mehrdad Bayrami, 48, who was shot during a five-hour standoff with police outside the Starlight Casino in New Westminster on Nov. 8, 2012. He died in hospital.
w m www.crystalatyork.com
MacWilliams was serving as a member of the emergency response team, and has been with the Delta Police for five years and seven months. “He’s currently on administrative leave (with pay),” Sgt. Sarah Swallow said. The Independent Investigations Branch, based in Whalley, investigated the shooting and Chief Civilian Director Richard Rosenthal forwarded his report to Crown counsel last summer. MacWilliams was charged Monday
morning (Oct. 20) and released on bail after appearing in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster. He is to be back in court in December. Delta Police Chief Jim Cessford said he has “limited knowledge” of the details of the case.“Also, considering the fact that this matter is now before the courts I am not in a position to make any comment relative to the charges against Const. MacWilliams,” he said.

CONTROL WEIGHT = CONTROL BLOOD SUGAR
By Dr. Chakib Hammoud, M.H.,PhD. Long term weight control without controlling blood sugar is destined to fail. This is why we have an epidemic of obesity. How it works: Stops the “roller coaster” of cravings and appetite to eat foods like sugar and starches that cause high blood glucose levels, which then brings on your pancreas to automatically pump insulin into your blood stream. Subsequently the high level of insulin precipitates low levels of blood glucose and cravings for more sugar and starchy carbohydrates (breads, noodles, crackers, cereals, french fries) which you don’t need and therefore it goes into unwanted fat storage and being overweight. Experts now recognize these basic facts.#40 Bell Blood Sugar Imbalance helps to stop this vicious cycle and puts you in control. Dr. Hammond says this natural product works 10 times better because it reprograms our brain and pancreas to release insulin in a controlled manner. Helpful non-fattening eating suggestions in the box. Fibers and exercise like walking are beneficial and help after you control the underlying basic blood sugar imbalance. < Working in a health food store I heard people saying how well #40 works. I tried it myself. Finally a product that controls my blood sugar much better than what anything else we had in the store. Thank you for helping people around the world. Irene M. Urdialez, 43, Brynton Beach, FL < My medical indicated prediabetic. I took #40. When re-tested readings were fine. This helped my metabolism and my weight is down 25 lbs. I am grateful to the health food store people for their advice. Michael O’Brien, 60, Rutherglen, ON < I finally found the right #40 NPN 80040208 approach to lose weight. I tried for 3 years to lose weight. After starting #40 my blood sugar is stable now. I was able to stop overeating and lost my excess weight. Sara John, 40, Kitchener, ON < I was struggling for 15 years with weight gain in spite of diet and exercise. I was diagnosed as pre-diabetic. I will forever be grateful to the store manager that explained to me to take #40 and read suggestions to avoid fattening foods. I lost 70 lbs. My fasting blood sugar is now 92. My 2 hour post meal glucose level is now 92 as well. My new shape raised my self-esteem and gave me immeasurable peace of mind. Karen Maples, 55, Clarksville, TN <Diabetic eliminated high blood sugar levels with #40. My readings were 140 to 200 and are now 99 to 122 range where I want it to be. Before I bought about 10 different supplement that were more expensive and didn’t work as well. I also lost some weight. A great improvement in my health and daily living.

Helps to promote healthy mood balance, relaxation, use as a sleep aid and mental stress. Stress is one of the main causes of high blood pressure. Truthful experience by people: < I am calm now in stressful situations! In the past 10 years I had a very short fuse, because my job is quite unpredictable. After I started Bell Calming Chronic Stress #66 the difference was amazing. My reactions to stressful situations are totally changed. I also have more energy, too. I don’t yell at others. I have more patience and I am much happier as well. Thank you. Mary-Anne Thompson, 61, Lasalle, ON < It truly made me feel calmer. I was able to better cope with stress and was not afraid to deal with stressful situations head-on, instead of avoiding them as I had done in the past. Consequently I was also able to sleep better at night. No more waking up hyperventilating from stress of the day. Peter Armbruster, 48, Waterloo, ON. < I have a very high stress career in the film industry. There was no time for relaxation or meditation as you are on demand for 12-15 hours a day with no breaks. Since using Bell #66I am able to focus on the tasks at hand with more patience. Thank you for your help! Christina Ollson, 36, Burnaby, BC <It’s exactly one year since we began using Bell Calming Chronic Stress #66 for our two #66 NPN 80041855 sons. Our local health food store recommended it. Both of our sons suffer from anxiety disorders. Our older son (14) was going through puberty and had become quite unmanageable, because he is much larger than I am. We are delighted with the immediate results. Our older son became his former sweet self and our younger son’s (12) anxiety is dramatically reduced. Thank you so much.

INFORM Municipal government
Delta grows impatient waiting for municipal auditor report Adrian MacNair
Now staff Twitter @adrianmacnair
DELTA — The Corporation of Delta is wondering why a provincial audit into its finances is taking nearly two years to complete after it opened its books for greater public scrutiny. In May 2013, Delta was selected along with five other municipalities by the newly created office of the Auditor General for Local Government (AGLG) for a performance audit on achieving value for money in operational procurement. In a press release issued by the Corporation of Delta last week, Mayor Lois Jackson expressed concerns regarding the audit. Although Delta has spent many hours facilitating various provincial audit teams, no recommendations or reports are expected to be released by the AGLG until March 2015. According to the release, “A key concern from Delta’s perspective is the time taken by the province to conduct this nearly two year performance audit. In comparison, Delta’s independent municipal auditor conducts and
completes its annual audit of Delta’s financial statements, including a formal report to council, within six weeks.” Coun. Sylvia Bishop, who participated in interviews with the AGLG, said she thinks it has been a waste of money to undergo the exercise without a timely report. Bishop questioned the greater scrutiny of operational procurement, adding the system is already transparent. All procurement items over $50,000 must appear before Delta Council for approval and become part of the public record. As well, each item is accounted for by the finance department, showing where the money is budgeted. Bishop said she expects the final report will be “glowing” in favour of Delta. But council candidate Heather King said she welcomes the audit as an “important and objective pair of eyes are needed to scrutinize the inner workings of local government.” King said if all goes well with the audit, then taxpayers can be provided with a sense of comfort that their “hard-earned money is in good hands.” If not, then changes may need to be made, she said. adrianmacnair@thenownewspaper.com

SURREY — Surrey Mounties are hunting for a man with crooked teeth who sexually assaulted two prostitutes, in separate incidents, after leading them on foot to a secluded area. He is described as white, about 35 years of age, five feet 10 inches tall, roughly 200 to 230 pounds and balding, or with shaved hair. Police say he goes by the name “James” or “Jeff.” The first attack happened Oct. 12. The distraught woman flagged down a police officer near 144th Street and 64th Avenue
and said a man she had met on King George Boulevard had assaulted her. “The victim was able to escape her attacker and signal for help,” Staff Sgt. Joe Johal said. “Police conducted an extensive canvass of the area with assistance from Police Dog Services but were unable to locate the suspect.” Six days later, another prostitute told police she had a similar experience about a month earlier, with a man of similar description. Police ask anyone with information to contact RCMP at 604-599-0502. Tom Zytaruk
Targeted home-invasion robbery suspects sought NEWTON — Surrey RCMP is looking for four suspects in a targeted home invasion-style robbery and shooting in Newton last month that saw a neighbour get shot in the face. It happened shortly after 1 a.m. on Sept. 23, in the 7600-block of 146A Street
when the robbers forced themselves into a basement suite. “As the suspects fled, they fired several shots at a neighbour, one of which struck the victim in the face,” Cpl. Bert Paquet said. “The victim of the shooting is expected to make a full
recovery.” The suspects are Sean Jacob Jennings, 27, Peter Black Edmonds, 24, David Nguyen, 23, and Jason Suriyavong, 21. Police ask anyone with information to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-5990502.

Surrey’s Radio India to go off air Peter O’Neil
Vancouver Sun Twitter @poneilinottawa
GATINEAU, Que. — One of B.C.’s “Pirate Radio” broadcasters boasted earlier this month of his powerful political connections, a vast public following prepared to take to the streets to rally on his behalf and his plan to fight for his right to keep operating all the way to the Supreme Court of Canada. But Radio India’s managing director, Maninder Gill, humbly capitulated here Oct. 15 under pressure from Canada’s regulator of the airwaves. “I changed my mind, ” Gill told a Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission member questioning his change of heart. Gill heads Radio India, one of three largely Punjabi-language B.C. stations broadcasting to Lower Mainland audiences without a licence by using U.S.-based radio transmitters. Gill, while saying his station “fills a void” and is the “chosen vehicle” for politicians anxious to reach B.C.’s South Asian voters, admitted he’s been operating for years in violation of Canada’s Broadcasting Act. He and a representative, Andrew Forsyth, appealed to the CRTC to give Radio India 120 days to wind down operations, avoid the costs associated with a quick closure that could lead to bankruptcy and prepare a submission for a future AM licence on the 600 frequency in the Lower Mainland. “Mr. Gill does want to come into compliance, but shutting everything
down at once would devastate too many people and diminish the hope of ever revitalizing the service,” Forsyth told a panel of three CRTC commissioners. The commission called the hearing in an attempt to determine if Radio India and two other stations, Radio Punjab Ltd. of Surrey and Sher-E-Punjab Radio Broadcasting Inc. of Richmond, are operating outside Canadian law. The latter two recently agreed to sign “consent” agreements that allowed them to avoid last week’s hearing. One of the consent deals led to Richmond’s Badh family selling its stake in SherE-Punjab to the family’s U.S. business partner, Bagh Khela, who already owned 80 per cent of the shares of BBC Maninder Gill Broadcasting Inc. BBC, no relation to the British public broadcaster, is holder of a U.S. licence to operate KRPI-AM, which broadcasts the Sher-E-Punjab signals from Ferndale into the B.C. Lower Mainland. It isn’t clear if Khela will try to continue Sher-E-Punjab’s operations under another name, but it won’t be happening in Point Roberts, Wash., near Tsawwassen. The application for a five-antenna broadcast array was denied by Whatcom County on Tuesday (Oct. 21), citing height restrictions for the proposed 45-metre towers. The Badh family has refused interview requests. Radio Punjab said this month it can
continue operating, with unspecified changes, under its consent order. The CRTC made it clear during last week’s hearing, and with the consent orders, that it will no longer put up with stations that defiantly produce all their broadcasts, and collect 100 per cent of their advertising dollars, on Canadian soil without operating under Canada’s broadcasting regime. That scenario has existed under the nose of not only federal regulators but Canadian politicians who beat a path to the doors of the pirate radio stations. “Radio India is regarded as a must-do communications vehicle for politicians,” Gill, who last week mailed photos of himself with Canadian politicians, boasted Wednesday in the same presentation in which he promised to shut down operations. “The B.C. premier, members of parliament, MLAs, city mayors and councillors have been visitors to Radio India studios. “Radio India has interviewed past and present prime ministers of both Canada and India. During elections, Radio India is chosen as a vehicle to connect with the South Asian community.” Two CRTC-licensed, B.C.-based Punjabi-language competitors to the pirate stations testified by a remote hookup Oct. 14, saying their unsanctioned rivals have had an unfair advantage in scooping up millions of advertising dollars, including the estimated $2 million to $3 million that Gill says goes annually into Radio India’s coffers.

INFORM Surrey civic election
Hepner, McCallum top two latest polls Christopher Poon
Now staff Twitter @questionchris
SURREY — Two new polls released this week show candidates Linda Hepner and Doug McCallum trading lead spots in the race to replace Dianne Watts as Surrey’s mayor. The first poll, commissioned by Surrey First and released Monday, shows Hepner in the lead with fellow candidates McCallum and Barinder Rasode in second and third, respectively. The telephone poll was conducted by the Innovative Research Group between Oct. 6 and 12 and surveyed 300 residents. Of those surveyed, 27 per cent said they would vote for Hepner, 22 per cent for McCallum and 15 per cent for Rasode. Thirty-two per cent said they were still undecided while three per cent said they would be voting for another candidate. Two per cent said they would not be voting at all. The margin of error for the poll is listed as 5.7 per cent. However, the second poll, released Tuesday (Oct. 21) by Mainstreet Technologies, showed McCallum in the lead
with 22 per cent, Hepner in second with 20 per cent and Rasode in third with eight per cent. Five per cent of those surveyed by Mainstreet were voting for someone else, while 45 per cent remained undecided. The total number of participants in Mainstreet Technologies’ poll was 1,584 and was conducted on Oct. 20 using automated phone CI surveys. Mainstreet’s margin of error is listed as 2.46 per cent and only focused on mayoral candidates while Innovative’s poll looked at other aspects such as election issues. In the Innovative Research Group’s poll, crime remained the top of mind issue for most residents at 36 per cent, while keeping property taxes down and reducing wasteful spending at city hall were both tied for second at 16 per cent each. As for those who might dismiss the poll for it being commissioned by Surrey First, Greg Lyle, president of Innovative Research Group, said the company would have no benefit in producing polls favourable to one side over another. “We normally do polls for the media and if we go in and screw around with the
numbers for a local poll we destroy our chances of being able to do anymore of that sort of research,” he said. “I suspect if the numbers weren’t as good, they wouldn’t have released it. From our perspective there’s no upside in cooking the numbers for us.” Lyle added the sample of 300 residents were weighted by age, gender and region using IC information from Statistics Canada in order to provide a demographic representation close to that of Surrey’s. Mainstreet Technologies’ poll primarily interviewed those aged 35 and up, with 12 per cent of respondents in the 18 to 35 range. The poll comes a week after a separate survey by Insights West put Doug McCallum as the lead mayoral candidate with Hepner and Rasode coming in second and third, respectively. That poll was conducted online and surveyed 520 Surrey residents. For more stories about the upcoming civic election, go to thenownewspaper.com.

Independent trustees unite as Progressives SURREY — A group of independent Surrey school trustee candidates have come together to form a new team ahead of the upcoming civic election. Comprising of incumbent trustee Charlene Dobie, Rayman Bhuller, Patricia Enair, Niovi Patsicakis, Kristy Peterson and Sara Sharma, the party will be known as the Surrey Progressives. While the team has their name set, they will not appear on the ballot as the Surrey Progressives since the group was formed after the submission deadline for nominations. Dobie is an incumbent trustee who was elected in 2011 as part of the Surrey Civic Coalition. Enair has been involved in the Surrey District Parents Advisory Council as well her child’s PAC over the past eight years. Patsicakis is a long-term educator. Peterson is a first-time candidate with daughters currently attending a French Immersion school in Surrey and Sharma is a local realtor and owner of Little Newton Daycare. The Surrey Progressives are having an open house on Saturday (Oct. 25) from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at 8097 134 St., Surrey. The only other party running in the trustee race is Surrey First Education.

Halloween
Home ‘haunters’ scare for good causes Kristi Alexandra
Now contributor Twitter @kristialexandra
SURREY — Unlike other festive holidays, the Halloween season doesn’t often evoke the spirit of giving. While some might think that the only thing All Hallows’ Eve does is try to conjure spirits, others – sometimes known as “haunters” – are busy decorating their homes with ghouls, goblins and cobwebs for Halloween displays that will benefit local charities. With themes like “Carnevil”, “Creepy Castle” and “Hillbilly Hell”, it seems more than a couple of local residents are a little gung-ho for the holiday that celebrates all that is no good. Janet Child’s Creepy Castle, for example, has been going four years strong, and proceeds from the haunted house – which includes a mini-pumpkin patch, a graveyard and a walk through some haunted castle chambers – go towards the Surrey Firefighters and the Surrey Hospice. “This year we’re really pumping it up,” Child told the Now. “We thought we were going to try to do a little bit of different stuff this year simply because it is on a Friday and we can stay open without worrying about it.” The “castle” wraps around the front and side of the house, featuring homemade horror masks and dead bodies with organs falling out. With so many great features of the public haunted house, Child maintains she’s been very lucky with the amount of community support received. “It’s been a really great experience for me to see how giving local merchants are,” she said. Donated items include treats from local bakeries to give to kids, gallons of paint, building supplies and more. Child’s Creepy Castle is located at 8753 Tulsey Cres., Surrey. Entry to the haunted house is by donation.
F
or the past seven years, Stacey Yarwood, a Clayton Heights resident, has been putting on a Halloween house to raise cash for charity. For the past five, she’s been donating specifically to BC Children’s Hospital after her nephew was diagnosed with cancer. This year, her Clayton Heights home will be decked out as an evil carnival – a “Carnevil.” “We hand out coffee, hot chocolate and obviously candy,” Yarwood said, noting that the haunted house is free to enter but donations are appreciated. Halloween lovers and trick-or-treaters alike may purchase popcorn inside. Yarwood said the house is a real community effort, and sees long line-ups come Halloween. “Our neighbours get involved with a live DJ and the DJ plays music all night for everyone standing in line,” she said. “Last year we had about a thousand kids; they usually throw out stuffed animals and it’s a lot of fun.” For those a little gun-shy going into the
At Allan Pelletier and Janet Child’s place in the Bear Creek Park area, they’ve built a facade around their house. (Photo: GORD GOBLE) haunted house, Yarwood has got it covered. “We have guides that stand at the front and they’ll go through if you’ve got a little one that’s too scared. It can be for all-ages,” she said. Yarwood’s Carnevil is located at 6970 190th St., in Clayton Heights. Admission is free but donations are appreciated. There will be a basket of candy to raffle off, as well as other fun features.
G
etting more creative every year is Greg McLellan’s Swamp House. This year’s theme? Hillbilly Hell. In North Delta, McLellan constructs a haunted house that takes up his entire driveway. And though the creative driveway den is only open a few days per year, the landscape designer starts planning his October haunt as early as January. “When I was a kid, when you’re in the neighbourhood trick-or-treating and, you know, there was always that one house that would scare the bejeesus out of you?” McLellan recalled, noting that he wanted to bring back fun to neighbourhood activities for kids. “There’s really no place to go,” he said. “Trick-or-treating kind of died off there for a while with all the fear, people started going to malls. I just thought I’d get back into it and have a destination place for kids and people to go to. I’ve got nothing but positive feedback
see More Photos at thenownewsPaPer.coM from everyone who’s ever come by.” From the street, up the McLellans’ driveway, and reaching up to their garage, Hillbilly Hell is a seven-room maze that fits under a watertight tent. Four to five people can fit inside the haunted house at a time. The Delta resident said he often gets asked if he’s in the movie business or whether he designs sets because his Halloween décor is so creative. Asked why he’s so enthusiastic about Halloween, McLellan said it’s quite simple. “Halloween just piqued my interest, and who doesn’t like scaring people?” As scary as he likes to be, he said that he’s not going for gore at Hillbilly Hell. “It’s a little bit backwoods, a little bit of deformity, a little bit of banjo playing,” McLellan said. “I’m not into the gore, you know, the big blood themes. That’s just not where I’m at yet and I’m not sure if I’ll ever want to be. I kind of play on people’s minds and what they think is going to be coming, and there might be and might not be.” McLellan also noted that his Swamp House is free to enter, but there is a donation box that trick-or-treaters can give to if they want. Every penny collected through the donation box will benefit the Children’s Miracle Network.
McLellan’s Swamp House/Hillbilly Hell is located at 8661 Byron Road, Delta. The haunted house is open on Wednesday, Oct. 29, Thursday, Oct. 30 and Friday, Oct. 31 after sundown.
A
lso located in North Delta is Gord Sauck’s Gordon Manor, in Sunshine Hills. The haunt, featuring gothic wrought-iron fences, ghouls and hanging skeletons as well as a whole castle-brick façade, looks like it better fits a neighbourhood in Transylvania than the picturesque Sunshine Hills. The home is open to the public on Halloween evening from 6 to 10 p.m. and, according to Sauck, he only has one rule: no gore. “The first rule is there’s no gore, it’s a family-themed kind of thing. No blood body parts, gore or anything like that,” he said. What it does boast is a lot of high-tech effects, like lasers and animatronics. Unlike many of the other haunted houses, the Saucks’ is not a “walk-through.” The big display, which its “haunter” says is expected to be patronized by over 2,000 people this year, warrants a street shut-down by the city. The CH.I.L.D. foundation will be on hand to collect donations; names will be drawn for a WestJet trip. Gordon Manor is located at 1147 Huff Blvd. in Delta and runs from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Halloween evening. kalexandra@thenownewspaper.com

DIWALI Fun at celebrations in Surrey, White Rock
Diwali celebrations attracted thousands of people Saturday, Oct. 18 in White Rock (above, where Jasleen Bamrah, Shristi Lad and Kamal Thapar hammed it up for the camera) and at Surrey City Hall (left, featuring performances by Shan-E-Punjab Arts Club and others). Diwali, also known as the “Festival of Lights,” usually falls in either October or November, as its date is based on the Hindu lunar calendar. Diwali is marked by Hindus, Sikhs, Jains and Buddhists in a celebration of victory of good over evil and light over darkness. (Photos: GORD GOBLE) see More Photos online at thenownewsPaPer.coM

aeryon ashlie
Struggled with post-baby weight and didn’t know what to do to get motivated? Then you better take a seat at fitness competitor Aeryon Ashlie’s inspirational talk at the Health and Wellness Stage on Saturday and Sunday. Ashlie will highlight 10 easy steps for women to follow to balance their body, life and weight. Several years ago Ashlie took time away from her competitive lifestyle to focus on the birth of her daughter. It was then that she struggled with post-baby weight as many other women have. Rather than letting this be a block for her, Ashlie turned to her knowledge and expertise of health and wellness to regain the strong body she previously had during competitions. With determination and focus, Ashlie returned to fitness competitions in 2012 where she won the 2012 Western Canadian Championships in Kelowna.

GO! The arts
Competitions a way to say, ‘Hooray for the play!’ ArtsScene Melanie Minty Columnist
W
hy write a play? How do you write a play? And once written, how do you get it noticed, produced and presented on stage? All good questions – no easy answers. Here are some ideas I have gleaned from friends and famous playwrights alike. Henrik Ibsen wrote, “Writing has … been to me like a bath from which I have risen feeling cleaner, healthier and freer.” OK, motivation and inspiration. And inspiration can come from anywhere. Once upon a time, a friend and I were discussing the derth of parts in plays for mature women. Like us. Our community theatre clubs that we both belonged to (Surrey Little Theatre and Fraser Valley Gilbert & Sullivan Society) offered few and far between parts for us – well, me, actually. My friend, Norma Rushton, was granted great gifts. Anyway, our discussion included
costuming. Somehow – and without the aid of a glass of wine – we thought that there ought to be a play about women and they should wear corsets. It took a few years, but Norma has gotten the play written! It is a wonderful journey of four women who get together annually for a one-week getaway to a cabin on an island. I am excited to see it produced and that, too, with the help of community theatre, may come true. It has been submitted to Mission Theatre to its one-act play writing festival. If it is chosen, it will be produced in the late spring. The name of the play is I Give You Each Other. I mean, it is one thing to write a play, but eventually you do want that play to be seen on stage. Usually, a new play will be workshopped, perhaps with the aid of a dramaturg. Stephen Sondheim says, “The last collaborator is your audience.… When the audience comes in, it changes the temperature of what you’ve written. Things that seem to work well (“work” in a sense of, to effectively carry the story forward and be integral to the piece) suddenly become a little less relevant or a little less functional or a little overlong or a little overweight or a little whatever. And so you start reshaping from an audience.”
Up to
Listen to Stephen. You need to write something the audience will like, understand, or whatever. Hey, if Sondheim can say whatever, then so can I. So, now that you have an idea of how to get started, here are some playwriting competitions you might want to consider – just in case the idea of writing a play has ever come up in your conversations with friends. You’d be surprised how often that can happen. UBC Players’ Club, soon to be celebrating 100 years of existence, is accepting submissions for original short play proposals (10 to 40 minutes) in honour of the club’s centennial. Successful applicants will receive dramaturgical support and script workshops culminating in a full theatrical production in early 2016, as part of the club’s centennial celebration. For application details, visit ubcplayersclub. com/call-for-play-proposals-for-ubcpccentennial. Theatre BC also has an annual playwriting competiton. This is has been the parent organization for community theatre across the province since 1932. It annually hosts Destination Mainstage, a competition for community theatre companies each July.
The 2015 Destination Mainstage Theatre Festival will be held in Kamloops, and is the largest provincial theatre festival of its kind in Canada. That is really impressive, and it is not professional. This is the grassroots, the amateurs, the volunteers. Locally, community theatre absolutely thrives with scores of clubs putting on excellent productions. Theatre BC’s competition is open to original scripts of drama and comedy, either full-length or one-act. Deadline for entry is Dec. 31. Independent jurors will decide upon winners in each category, with a prize of $1,000 awarded for the chosen fulllength, $750 for the one-act and $500 for a script of special merit. Competition details are posted at Theatrebc.org/playwritingcompetition. It takes courage to be a writer. You have to let your heart and soul seep into the words. Tennessee Williams said, “I can’t expose a human weakness on the stage unless I know it through having it myself.” And that’s why we, the audience, will love a play: we can see truths about ourselves in an entertainment package. Hooray for the play.

Panoramic views of Surrey and White Rock make Harbour Air’s latest flight service a thrilling experience. The company launched its new Pitt Meadows-toVictoria route on Sept. 22, connecting the Fraser River to the busy inner harbour of B.C.’s capital. On a recent weekend trip, it was a smooth 35-minute flight for the DHC-3 Turbine Single Otter seaplane. My son and I enjoyed the amazing views as the plane climbed high above the river due south, then followed 176th Street toward the Peace Arch crossing and banked right, southwest over Birch Bay and the Gulf Islands.

Captain plays on the wrong foot, leads by example Surrey United’s Kyle Sohi played the U-18 national club championship using only his left foot Kyle Benning
Now contributor Twitter @kbbenning
SOUTH SURREY – Kyle Sohi’s perseverance and performance in the 2014 Sport Chek National Club Championships U-18 Cup Final might go down in history next to England’s Terry Butcher. Even though his jersey wasn’t painted in blood stains, the Surrey United skipper was limited to using his non-dominant foot for the entire match and managed to score a goal and set up the other two. Surrey United beat Ontario’s Ajax Soccer Club 3-0 in last Monday’s (Oct. 13) final at South Surrey Athletic Park. In the team’s third match against Manitoba’s Bonivital Soccer Club, Sohi overextended his right knee sending a volleyed pass to a teammate. An appointment with a physiotherapist revealed he had a pinched meniscus and they recommended he rested for the remainder of the weekend. Despite the physiotherapist telling him his weekend was “basically over,” he did the same thing as Butcher by taping up the injury and played through the pain. “I’m still not 100 per cent healthy. I’m still going to physio. “Even in the final, I wasn’t close to 100 per cent. I didn’t even touch the ball with my right foot at all. I (played) the whole game with my left,” Sohi said. Sohi, who is attending and playing for UBC, wasn’t going to miss another national final. When this team represented the province at the under-16 national championship two years ago, the midfielder/striker wasn’t able to compete in the final because he tore his medial collateral ligament. Knowing the emotional and physical pain of missing such an important match, the North Delta Secondary graduate said he wasn’t going to do that again.
Kyle Sohi, captain of the national champion U-18 Surrey United team, played the championship final with a knee injury. He scored a goal and set up two more in Surrey’s 3-0 win over Ajax Soccer Club. (Photo: KYLE BENNING) “I felt like I could play. If I didn’t, I’d be letting my teammates down,” said Sohi. He finished the tournament as jointleading goal scorer with five goals in four games. Jeff Clarke, Sohi’s coach and Surrey United technical director, was extremely impressed with Sohi’s ability to play through the pain. “In relative terms, (it) is one of the more excruciating knee pains you get,” Clarke said. “He wasn’t going to play on Monday. It wasn’t until the warm up that he thought, ‘I can play through this.’”
The coach said when the skipper stepped onto the pitch, it lifted the spirits of his teammates and they knew they would have to equal his level of dedication. “He went out there literally on one leg and we won 3-0 and he scored a goal and got two assists. It was one of the most heroic things you’ll see, especially in youth amateur sport,” said Clarke. “It’s one of the most symbolic signs of leadership,” he added. On top of dealing with a painful injury and one of the biggest games of his young career, the UBC science student-athlete was also studying for midterm exams the week
of the tournament. “The young kids in Surrey need leaders. They need role models. (Sohi) is definitely that,” the coach said. “He’s a 4.0 student. He was in the hotel studying until midnight.” The freshman has come on as a substitute in eight of the Thunderbird’s 14 matches scoring one goal. Sohi has quite the resume for the sport he loves including being part of three provincial club championship teams (U-14, U-16 and U-18), the Whitecaps Prospects U-12 team, training with the provincial team and playing for the Thunderbirds.

CLOVERDALE – For the third consecutive year, players for the Surrey Beavers Rugby Club will be wearing bright pink jerseys, shorts and socks in an October home match. The club is hosting Ruck for a Cure again, a campaign to raise awareness for breast cancer and $10,000 for research. In the previous two years, the Beavers have raised around $20,000 by auctioning the pink jerseys, among other prizes. Derek Finlayson, an executive member

and former Division 1 player, said the team would be auctioning 18 jerseys this year, three more than in years past. He added there are silent auction items in addition to the jerseys, but that approximately 95 per cent of the raised funds came from the jersey auction. Nick Bruce, the Division 1 player who came up with Ruck for a Cure, said he’d seen this concept done elsewhere in professional sports and wanted the Surrey club to attempt a similar campaign. “I figured we could incorporate that into our yearly schedule,” Bruce said. “No one really goes through life without being affected in some way, shape or form by

Touring
This is a car that should age well on the outside BY BRENDAN McALEER

Tweet: @brendan_mcaleer
There’s no denying that Mr. Honda was a genius, but he also nearly ran his company into the ground. Obsessed with perfection, he backed up the production line time and again with new innovations and insights – the engineers eventually set up a desk for somebody to field all his brainwaves. It was no way to build a car, even if the car in question was actually pretty good. The Honda 1300 was the first proper Honda passenger car, and it had any number of clever tricks; sadly, it wasn’t a sales success. The next car to come along was the Civic, and we all know how that went. However, this time Mr. Honda was forced to allow his engineers to stop pulling their hair out in frustration and work together in a more harmonious fashion. Little wonder than they’d soon produce a vehicle called the Accord. But then something happened. The svelte little Hondas of the 70s, 80s, and 90s ballooned into huge machines that were somewhat spongy. The Accord grew so much it crossed from mid-sized to full-sized; comfy, sure, but where’s the personality? Happily, a proper Accord returned last year and the harmony is back.
Design:
Not much has changed for the 2014 year in terms of the Accord’s sheet metal, assuming you discount the optional Hybrid version with its blue-green enviro-cues. It’s a conservative design, yet the more I look at it, the more there is to like. While slightly shrunk in size, this is still a big, wide car, yet the clean styling avoids it looking cumbersome. You get 18” alloys on both the Touring and Sport trims, but the stock 17” rims look just fine, and will have cheaper-to-replace tires anyway.
There is the slight worry that the LED treatment on the Accord’s front headlights is going to start looking a bit dated as the LED-as-decorative style fades out of the luxury market. However, as an overall effort, the front fascia manages to look distinctively Honda without looking too distinctive. This is a car that should age well on the outside.
Environment:
However, that ageless beauty is only skin deep. While there’s much to like about the interior of the Accord in terms of spaciousness, the application of technology leaves something to be desired. Just as the split-level instrument binnacle on the Civic has its detractors, the Accord’s twin screen setup is going to puzzle more than a few people. Why’d they do that? The top 8” screen looks nice, but it’s operated by a rotary control, while a second lower screen handles the audio functions, and is at a lower resolution. It’s odd, but it works – and yet a simpler layout probably would have been better. Having said that, the integrated LaneWatch sideview camera is the sort of clever innovation that only Honda could come up with: every time you put your right turn indicator on, a camera mounted on the right mirror shows a nice clear display down the side of the car, making watching for cyclists easy, and parallel parking a cinch. Other than that, the back seats are simply enormous, and ditto the trunk. This Accord might be slightly smaller than the previous generation, but the nips and tucks don’t seem to have diminished the interior space much at all.
Performance:
One feature that all Hondas used to have was a fun-to-drive essence that extended right across the range. No wonder kids were hopping up hand-me-down hatchbacks back in the day: those cars had dual-wishbone suspension and carved up corners like they were born on a track. While the Accord is far more refined than the Hondas of
yore, it still has a bit of that racing spirit tucked under the hood. The four-cylinder option makes a reasonable 184hp at 5000rpm and 181lb/ft of torque at 3900rpm. The dual exhausts on the Sport models uncork an extra 5hp, and the V6 stomps out an impressive 278hp and 252lb/ft. Honda, bless their hearts, will sell you an Accord with a real six-speed manual if you want, but you’re better off selecting a Continuously Variable Transmission if you don’t want to wait. I know, I know: a CVT. That can’t be good for driving fun, can it? Truth be told, Honda’s nailed this transmission. Unless you’re brutal with the throttle, it doesn’t whine and rubber-band too much, and is extremely smooth and efficient. Even better, the Accord’s chassis is that of one of the ballerinas the H-badge used to put out, meaning that it’s really quite quick and nimble. The electric powersteering is well managed, without being over boosted, and it frankly feels like a return to form. Tackling a curving on-ramp, the four-cylinder Accord carried enough speed through the corner that little power was actually needed for extra acceleration. That’s just the way an old Honda would have made the most of its power, and the payoff is a great driving experience with minimal penalty at the pump.
Features:
Standard equipment in the mid-size sedan segment is usually very good and the Accord is no exception. The 8” display and a backup camera are standard, as is Bluetooth handsfree, automatic headlights, and heated seats. Move up to the Touring-spec trim and get leather heated seats fore and aft, satellite navigation, and a multi-angle rear camera. Fuel economy is rated at 7.8L/100kms in the city and 5.5L/100kms on the highway. The new five-cycle testing would likely indicate a 10-15% bump in those figures, but the Accord did return very good fuel economy in the real world, particularly the way the CVT worked in the city.

INFORM White Rock council
Railway relocation could take years to be OK’d Agreement with Surrey required to move forward Christopher Poon
Now staff Twitter @questionchris
WHITE ROCK — Council and residents got a clearer picture of the steps needed to be undertaken in order to proceed with an official bid to have White Rock’s rail line relocated from the waterfront. In a presentation to council, rail expert and transportation consultant Mary Jane Bennett went into detail about what the city needs to do next if they intend to move forward with the relocation bid. Likening the Railway Relocation and Crossing Act to an expropriation process, Bennett said that the rail operator in question, Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF), must not gain or lose financially from the relocation of the railway. The process must also
A rail crossing in Surrey. (File photo) occur at no net cost to the railway, and White Rock must obtain consent from all municipalities involved, meaning Surrey. Looking at a 1987 case in Regina where it took five years for that to city have their relocation bid approved, Bennett said White Rock’s case should be a less complicated matter. “It was a five years until the
agency gave the green light for that to proceed and the first shovel in the ground was two years after that order,” said Bennett, noting Regina’s matter was complicated due to the relocation of a huge rail yard on top of two rail lines. “This is just a line, so it is of a less complicated nature. In Regina there were two and the…whole thing became very complicated and
very lengthy, I do not anticipate this would be at all in this nature.” The next steps White Rock must now take will be to come to an agreement with Surrey and the provincial government before being able to move forward. “Ten years ago, two freight trains a day passed over the line; today twenty trains travel the line,” wrote Bennett in her report. “Every means to enhance safety — including whistling, tunnels, speed reduction, pedestrian warning signals and fencing — has failed. There have been twenty-eight deaths and injuries on the tracks and nine significant mudslides. The lumber and cedar shingle shipments of years past have been replaced with shipments of dangerous goods like chlorine, hydrochloric acid, sodium hydrochloric acid and liquefied natural gas. “As long as the line bisects the White Rock community, the safety issues will not dissipate. Rail relocation is needed.” cpoon@thenownewspaper.com
White Rock councillor bids farewell WHITE ROCK — After four terms over the past three decades, Coun. Louise Hutchinson is bidding farewell to city hall, deciding not to run in the upcoming civic election. At her penultimate council meeting Monday, Hutchinson gave an impromptu speech about why she decided against running again and her time spent at city hall. “Many who do not know, I won my first seat 29 years ago, and served four terms in that time. That was almost half a lifetime ago,” she said. “This was a very difficult decision to make, it was not easy.” Mayor Wayne Baldwin said he was sorry to see Hutchinson go. “You’ve given a lot to this community and we owe you a debt of gratitude.”

“Fast, efficient, and courteous” ”I got to meet Cathleen McClughan during 2008-2009 when I approached her for a compensation case in a motor vehicle accident. She was professional, efficient, and paid close attention to everything I had to say. She was also very prompt in her executing her plan and got me a very satisfactory compensation. She even went to the extent of contacting me on the international phone which meant that she had to wait an extra 3-4 hours in the office in order to get me during my waking hours. It was a great pleasure working with Cathleen and her pleasant staff. I would recommend her to anyone who has a difficult problem that needs resolution in the court. You will be assured of fast, efficient, and courteous service.” ~ Dr. Anagha Gurjal, Medical Oncologist Free Initial consultation All Claims Minor to Catastrophic Injuries No Fees Until You Collect

White Rock
African dance showcased in interactive show for kids Kristi Alexandra
Now contributor Twitter @kristialexandra
WHITE ROCK — Children’s entertainer and African activist Jacky Essombe says, in her culture, if you haven’t danced with someone, you can’t trust them. That’s just the nature of dance in Africa — how someone dances says a lot about a person and their connection to the community. That’s why Essombe is trying to share her love of dance, along with its cultural philosophy, with kids and adults alike in her performances. Essombe, hailing from Paris and, originally, Cameroon, teaches dance classes in Vancouver like ‘Afro’-robics, Soukouss and Mother and Child African dance and drum workshops. “I’ve always loved my culture, to promote and share my culture with everyone,” Essombe told the Now.“African culture is so much about freedom and togetherness and expressing joy for life, and children really embody that. It doesn’t matter from where the children come from.” For Essombe, who will be performing at White Rock Elementary on Sunday (Oct. 26) as part of Peninsula Productions’ arts season, it’s important to teach children from a young age to sing, dance and tell stories within their community. “For me, it has more to do with sharing the spirit of togetherness that characterizes African culture than anything else,” she said.
“Dancing together, it’s a very powerful way to feel connected to one another. I know that from experience... If others were able to just pay attention and listen, they would know who you are simply by just witnessing you dance.” Essombe’s shows are highly interactive. “It’s about togetherness. It’s not about somebody coming and sitting down and watching a show, and being separate from the experience, and simply enjoying the fact that you have professionals on stage,” Essombe said. Life is too “compartmentalized” in Canadian culture, she asserted, explaining that it’s odd for her to see separate events for kids, teens, adults and seniors versus a communal, all-inclusive event, which she says is the norm in African culture. Typically, the singer and dancer said she encourages people to stand up and dance or sing at some point during her show. Not doing so, according to Essombe, indicates a disconnection to your peers. “I find in the west, there is so much isolation and there is such a desire to triumph for independence to show that,‘I can do this on my own, I don’t need anyone,’” she said. “In my culture, it’s the opposite. In my culture, nobody wants to be isolated, nobody wants to be left on their own... We are always looking for that strength of togetherness, it’s at the heart of our happiness.” kalexandra@thenownewspaper.com

It’s Official: The National Sleep Foundation Makes Its Selection Minnesota Man Miraculously Invents The World’s Most Comfortable omfortabll e Pillow P i llow and is Finally Validated! Chanhassen, MN - You know how the old saying goes: never count a person out. We say this in reference to the down-and-out character who made it to the heights of his dreams, pulling himself up by his bootstraps to achieve success. Are there real people with lives so incredible, they just need to be told? You be the judge. Meet Mike Lindell, an inventor and entrepreneur whose story is the stuff from which famous sayings are born. Lindell really enjoys sharing how he overcame the kind of life many others know well, too. His story goes like this: Throughout the 80s and 90s, Lindell struggled with addictions. With no regard for making choices to improve his life Lindell says, “I had taken my addictions to the limit and could not go on one more day living that way.” He recognized the desire for more and wanted to positively impact people. So overnight and with the grace of God, Mike Lindell stopped his addictive behavior and found a new way. A Better Path With a clear head and focused mind, Lindell set out to solve a problem he’d experienced since boyhood. He says, “Even as a youngster I suffered from a lack of good, quality sleep.” Lindell had gone to great lengths to get a good night’s sleep, even spending an entire paycheck at age 16 on an expensive pillow in hopes of curing his sleep woes but to no avail. Lindell would toss and turn at night, fold his pillow in half, use his arm for support, only to wake more tired than when he went to sleep. To study his issues more deeply, Lindell consulted with experts in the sleep industry and after gathering all the data (as well as and stories from friends), more than ever Lindell recognized and understood the harmful effects of poor sleep. Even more so, Lindell realized the effect of sleep interruptions permeate the lives of all walks of people. Lindell continues, “I was acutely aware of what was wrong but still needed to answer the biggest question of all, WHY?” Eureka Moment
discover the villain and cause of his sleep deprivation was none other than the pillow he was sleeping on. So Lindell tried “every pillow in the world,” but found common pillows did not provide adequate support for cervical alignment. “Most pillows cause sleep interruptions by going flat, heating up and causing you to toss and turn all night trying to readjust the pillows over to the cool side,” Lindell explains. “The effect prevents people from enjoying the uninterrupted REM sleep our bodies need to rejuvenate and heal.” Lindell theorized that a pillow providing proper support of the cervical nerves and vertebral arteries would allow users to get the deep healing sleep they want and need. So he set out to invent and manufacture “The World’s Most Comfortable Pillow.” Four Million People Can’t Be Wrong Year after year, Lindell marketed the pillows he’d created throughout the country at shows and expos during the day and worked alongside his family at night to make the pillows. He also spent time talking with consumers about their personal sleep frustrations. Lindell’s MyPillow is designed to conform to each individual’s support needs. It is washable and dryable, stays cool and is guaranteed not to go flat for 10 years. Lindell even provides a 60-day, no questions asked money-back guarantee. Though Lindell was originally told by the big bedding companies that his unorthodox business plan would put him out of business, his company now boasts more than 300 employees, maintains an A+ Better Business Bureau rating, and offers duty-free shipping from a distribution plant located in Manitoba, Canada. Recently MyPillow was selected as the National Sleep Foundation’s only ever official pillow, and in 2013 was awarded the prestigious QStar Award for “Product Concept of the Year” by QVC. Lindell himself has become well-recognized due to his frequent infomercial airings and guest appearances on shows such as Imus in the Morning. All this time later Lindell says he has learned the value of making choices that, “not only better my own life, but also improve the lives of others.” His is a story thatis so unique, it simply has to be true.
Process of elimination led Lindell to
Inventor, Manufacturer and C.E.O. of MyPillow®, Inc., Michael J. Lindell. Chanhassen, MN is where The World’s Most Comfortable Pillow is made and your best night’s sleep is created.
In the early days, Mike and family spent countless hours hand making each MyPillow. This dedication to “doing it right” has helped MyPillow to become a classic tale of success.
MyPillow’s patented fill adjusts to your individual needs. According to WebMD, a “Good Night’s Sleep” may help reduce the risk of: • • • •
Colds, Allergies & Flu Heart Disease Diabetes Obesity
• • • •
Drowsy Driving Migraines Snoring & Sleep Apnea Restless Leg Syndrome
• • • •
TMJ & Fibromyalgia Insomnia Neck & Back Pain Mental Degradation
Discover Great Sleep Just Like these People Jacqueline H. wrote; “I was diagnosed Olga B. wrote; “My life’s with various sleep issues. Until then I’d had no idea why my sleep was so interrupted throughout the night. I watch Imus each morning and heard endless testimonials about MyPillow. I took Imus’ advice and ordered a MyPillow. I now wake up rested and ready to conquer the day ahead. I never travel anywhere without MyPillow. Thank you for helping me remember what it’s like to sleep like a baby!”
mission to find a perfect pillow for me, has ended after 45 years! I can’t express just how much I love these pillows and then to make the deal even better, they’re washable, and get this... made in the U.S.A. to boot. You can’t top that. I have had mine for two years and they feel like the first night I slept on them, really!”

It’s a great vehicle for a family odyssey BY BRENDAN McALEER

of utilitarian anonymity, even with the extra chrome of the Touring edition – this isn’t a show-off car.

Hard to think it, but this vehicle is actually a member of an endangered breed. Just like the colossal station wagons of yore, the humble minivan is now somewhat under threat, outcompeted by legions of crossovers. Part of the deal is the whole “mom” vibe that a van projects. It’s a device for hauling around the soccer team, and as such, it doesn’t get a lot of respect. Well that’s a darn shame. Minivans are some of the nicest-riding, most feature-packed machines on the road, and they’re absolutely the ideal road trip companion. Load it up with pretty much anything your can think of – the kitchen sink? Why not? – and hit the open highway. A perennial favourite, the Honda Odyssey has always been a nice safe choice for a growing family that doesn’t subscribe to the idea that their family hauler need pretend to be a rugged SUV. Refreshed for 2014, it now includes a world-first feature: a built-in onboard vacuum cleaner. I guess you could say that particular part of this van really sucks. So how’s the rest of it?
Design:
There’s not much you can do, styling-wise, with what’s essentially a box on wheels, but to their credit, Honda’s at least made an attempt. Up front, there’s a new grille, hood and fenders. Thankfully, in an industry strangely obsessed with making their next generation of cars more aggressive, the Odyssey is still a friendly-faced machine, and quite reserved. From the side, the dominant feature is the chrome-surrounded greenhouse that looks like a fat lightning bolt, if we’re being charitable, or like the designer had hiccups, if we’re not. Touring-class Odysseys get 18” alloy wheels in a machinedlook finish that seem at balance with the immense amount of sheet metal here. The overall appeal of the car is a sort
Environment:
Inside, of course, is where the action is. With a simply tremendous amount of seating and tonnes of cargo room, the Odyssey has space to spare. Anyone also looking at a three-row crossover should just try sitting in the third row of this van to see how much more room a minivan can have. Stacking it up against the major competitors, the Odyssey doesn’t have the second-row flexibility of the Dodge Caravan, with its stow and go seating, and the Sienna’s larger rear seats are better suited to longer-legged passengers. The Odyssey provides plenty of comfort, especially for little kids, but removing the second row of seats for the annual garage clear out is a bit of a pain. Maybe we’ll clean the place out next year. However, with three-zone climate control and full leather seating, the Odyssey is easy-to-clean comfort for up to eight. The rear seats flip away to form an entirely flat loading area, or leave them up and load up the deep trunk. Up front, the driver and passenger now have a cleaner interface system to deal with, with a new touchscreen handling most of audio functions. Fit and finish are very good, although the use of plastics is not quite up to the near-luxury feel you’re starting to get with some modern crossovers. It would also be nice to see a practical innovation here like the Highlander’s mid-level dashboard shelf. I’d also like to see far more USB power outlets, not just the one used for connecting to an iPod, but several more out back to charge mobile devices for the kids.
It’s a different sort of driving. On a winding country road, the concern is not so much about gripping the curves with maximum gs, as it is not making anyone carsick. To that end, body roll is relatively controlled in the Odyssey, and it’s easy to set up a smooth rhythm, not slowpokin’, not hustlin’, but a just-right cruising speed. It’s a bit like being the captain of a comfortable cruise-liner. On the highway, the lack of radar-guided cruise-control is missed, and an overactive lane-departure-warning system is a bit annoying (you can turn it off). Other than that, this is what the Odyssey seems born to do: middle-lane cruising, eating up the miles. It might be good at the short-run school/soccer/musicclass excursions, but it’s also an ideal vehicle for longdistance touring. You might not get your thrills behind the wheel, but everybody can share in the great view out the windows.
Features:
At the Touring-level, the Odyssey is crammed with everything from Satellite Navigation to 12-speaker audio, to a push-button smart key, to the aforementioned touchscreen interface system. Honda calls this last HondaLink, and it’s straightforward to use. There’s also a gargantuan 16.2”-wide screen out back to pacify rear passengers.
Performance:
Safety ratings for the Odyssey are excellent – the IIHS has awarded it the highest possible rating. There’s a blind-spot monitoring system, and a multiple-angle rearview camera to make parking easier.
If you floor it, the six-speed auto downshifts and the V6
Fuel economy is quite good, considering the sheer weight of the van, thanks in part to cylinder-deactivation when cruising. Official ratings are 10.9L/100kms in the city and 7.1L/100kms on the highway. Especially when loaded up with kids, expect 10-20% worse than that in city conditions, but it is possible to dip into the 7s on the highway.
With a six-speed automatic transmission and a 248hp 3.5L V6 standard on all Odysseys, Honda’s minivan is about as fast as it needs to be. Interestingly, they’ve programmed the throttle to be very progressive, which makes it easy to get off the line without spilling sippy cups and snapping little necks.

provides enough thrust to get out of the way or make a tricky merge, but the overall driving experience is far more relaxed. Coming off the line almost feels like setting sail, with the Odyssey gliding up to speed.
