Surrey city council pressed to take position on coal terminal Christopher Poon Now staff Twitter @questionchris

SURREY — While neighbouring municipalities have already taken a stance on the Fraser Surrey Docks proposed coal transfer facility, one voice that has remained silent is perhaps the city that would be most affected: the City of Surrey.

While municipalities like White Rock, New Westminster and Vancouver have taken measures to express their disapproval of the proposed project, Surrey council has remained largely silent on the issue. On Monday, opponents of the proposal were hoping to change that.

Paula Williams of Communities and Coal, a local organization dedicated to fighting the increase of coal trains through the area, will be appearing before council in an effort to have them come out in opposition to the project.

Looking at other municipalities as inspiration, the Ocean Park resident hoped that by presenting on behalf of the thousands of residents opposed to the project, she could convince council to take the same stance.

“What we’re asking is Surrey council to officially oppose the Fraser Surrey Docks proposal as it stands today until a comprehensive health-impact assessment is done by an independent third party and also full public hearings are held,” said Williams. “Until that point, we believe Surrey can’t properly endorse it until it’s proven to the public to be safe.”

According to Williams, the public consultation sessions that have already been held by Fraser Surrey Docks and Port Metro Vancouver have done little to ease the concerns of residents and organizations.

“They call it consultation but they are very scripted meetings. They don’t allow for people to openly express how they feel. It’s not a democratic process, it’s more of an information session and so it’s very concerning,” she said.

A train loaded with coal passes people at the beach in White Rock. On Monday, opponents of a proposed coal transfer facility at Fraser Surrey Docks pressed Surrey city council on the issue. For the latest, visit www.thenowewspaper.com.

Sponsorship program

Plaques for city’s unmarked graves City staff create program to install memorial markers on unmarked gravesites in Surrey’s civic cemeteries Amy Reid Now staff Twitter @amyreid87

SURREY — Surrey’s three civic cemeteries contain roughly 350 gravesites that do not have memorial markers identifying those buried.

While the Ministry of Social Development has a program that pays for the interment of individuals whose families can’t afford a burial or cremation, the program doesn’t cover the installation of a memorial marker.

City of Surrey staff have partnered with a local business to provide free markers to families receiving help from the ministry in the future. More than 30 families have already been assisted.

Now the city is launching a sponsorship program to get markers for the 350 unmarked graves.

“It’s not just a patch of grass,” said Anna Terrace, Surrey’s cemetery co-ordinator.

Currently, unmarked graves are just a grassy area with no indication that someone has been buried at that spot.

“Imagine if you’re a family member coming in, and you haven’t been here for a while. There’s really nothing to identify that they’re even here,” she said, which is very important for visiting and things like leaving flowers.

“We’re very proud to be able to provide this program to families. Being a city cemetery, our focus is on the community and doing what we can to help.”

Terrace first thought of the program last November, when a woman called into the office who hadn’t been to her husband’s grave in quite some time. When she went to visit him, she couldn’t find his grave.

Terrace met with Stonemarks Engraving, and the business offered to provide a marker to families assisted by the ministry in the

Distorted fingerprint means acquittal for accused man

Anna Terrace, Surrey’s cemetery co-ordinator, holds up a temporary marker for a gravesite that is going to receive a real marker at Sunnyside Lawn Cemetery, thanks to a new program initiatied by City of Surrey staff. future, at no charge.

“I can only imagine, putting a name with their dates – when they were born and the end – that dash in the middle signifies their whole life. I can only imagine if I was in that situation that I would be honoured and thankful and just glad that a program like this is available.”

Terrace said it’s important for the community as well.

“I think it’s important for our community to recognize our community members.

How many times do you walk through a cemetery and take a look at the names and dates and wonder who that person was. We don’t need to know their financial status, it’s proof that they were here and they existed.

It’s very important that as we walk around the cemetery, and when we’re standing in a specific spot that we recognize that was a life

lived, and deserves recognition regardless of financial status.”

Terrace said to her knowledge, Surrey is the first city in North America to do a program like this and said she would love to see other municipalities follow suit.

Owen Croy, Surrey’s manager of parks, said the project is interesting from a genealogical perspective.

“It’s kind of neat to be able to know who is in the city cemeteries. If you go to some of our pioneer cemeteries that have been operating there for 100 years, it’s really kind of neat to stroll through a little bit of history.”

Croy said he hopes the project will help people see cemeteries in a brighter light.

“People have maybe some dark thoughts sometimes, or sad thoughts, associated with cemeteries. Other people are now

recognizing cemeteries as a place for remembrance in a very positive way. We hope that this maybe moves us to more remembrance in a positive fashion.”

The city is hosting an event today (Oct. 29) at Sunnyside Lawn Cemetery from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Family members will be present to witness the installation of memorials on the gravesites of their deceased relatives.

“Really, by raising awareness through this modest event, we will be able to start identifying people who may be able to philanthropically contribute toward this really worthy program.... This might strike a chord with some people,” Croy said.

Those wishing to get involved and donate can call the city’s cemetery office at 604598-5770 or email cemeteryinfo@surrey.ca.

SURREY — It all came down to a distorted fingerprint on a box containing a carnival ghoul doll.

A man accused of burglarizing a house in Fleetwood while its owners were away has been acquitted of break, enter and theft because the judge couldn’t be sure a partial fingerprint belonged to him.

Timothy Dale Bornyk was accused of forcing his way into the house and ransacking it in July 2010 while the homeowners were away at their cottage in Washington.

The Crown’s case relied on a single fingerprint found in the home, which had been up for sale at the time.

Justice Gordon Funt delivered his verdict in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver.

He heard from a realtor who said Bornyk did not attend any of several open houses there, as she would have seen him if he did.

One of the homeowners collected novelty items and the fingerprint had been found on the plastic wrapping of a box containing a “Living Dead Doll.”

But ripples in the plastic distorted the print, the judge noted. “For practical purposes, it was a partial fingerprint.”

While the Surrey RCMP held there was enough there to confirm a match, Funt disagreed. “While the usable portion of the latent fingerprint and the known fingerprint are quite similar, I have more than a reasonable doubt that there is a match of the latent fingerprint to the known fingerprint,” he found. “Accordingly, I acquit the accused.”

INFLUENCE DECISIONS.

Two stabbings, one murder SURREY — Surrey Mounties were on scene investigating a stabbing in Newton on Friday night when a bystander alerted them to another stabbing victim, in an unrelated assault, just a block away.

“We believe both incidents to be targeted and definitely not random attacks,” Cpl. Bert Paquet said. “They are not related to one another.”

The stabbings happened one block apart and within 40 minutes of one another.

At about 11:15 p.m. a 58-year-old man was found lying on the ground in the 13800-block of 72nd Avenue, suffering a stab wound to his neck. Paquet said police believe the victim was intoxicated but don’t know if that had anything to do with the crime. He has since been released from hospital.

“We looked for witnesses but haven’t found anybody to confirm what happened,” Paquet said.

While police were still on site, a bystander reported to the officers that a 20-year-old woman had been found nearby, in the 13900-block of 72nd Avenue, with a cut to her neck.

“They found her sitting down,” Paquet said.

She was taken to hospital to be treated for

a “superficial” wound, he said.

Paquet said the second attack involved “apparently an argument over stolen property.”

Nobody had been arrested by press time Monday.

Meanwhile, homicide investigators are still looking for a killer after a man’s body was found slumped over in his car in the driveway of a Fleetwood rancher early Friday morning.

Surrey RCMP received several 911 calls of shots being fired in the 8600-block of 156th Street at about 5 a.m. Friday.

The victim has been identified but his name had not been released by press time.

“We don’t have the motive yet,” said Sgt. Jennifer Pound, spokeswoman for the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team.

She said the victim did not have a criminal record. The RCMP had a tent set up in the driveway, at 8615 156th St., as they went about their investigation.

“The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team is leading this investigation and are currently working with Surrey RCMP and canvassing the neighbourhood,” Pound said.

Police are asking anyone with information to contact the IHIT tip line at 1-877-5574448.

To see how council responded to the presentation, check Thursday’s edition of the Now or go online to www. thenownewspaper.com.

“Our group has spread from South Surrey all the way to Texada Island, we’ve been holding town hall meetings and we’re finding time and time again that people are in the dark.”

Due to join Williams in her presentation to council was Bob Campbell, vice-chair of the city’s environmental advisory committee and current director of the West Panorama Ridge Ratepayers Association.

“In a perfect world we want (council) to fully oppose it,” said Campbell.

“But if they’re uncomfortable with straight out opposing it, which we think most citizens would want, then at least say we’re opposed until you conduct a full public hearing and you conduct this health impact assessment as recommended by the public health officers of this region.”

Campbell noted that the residents of Surrey would be most affected by the project’s increase in coal train traffic through the region, and because of that,

they deserve to have their leaders take a position on it.

“From a community standpoint this is one of the issues that seemed to have galvanized a community more so than we can recall,” he said. “If you’re not willing to act on this one, then which one are you willing to act on?”

According to Campbell, the goal of having council come out against the proposal would be to put pressure on Port Metro Vancouver to hold public hearings, something that the authority has so far refused to do. Instead, the authority has held open house information sessions, something Campbell says are just optics.

“It’s really just a way of ticking the box and saying they’re in touch with

people. The implication being that they’ve satisfied concern,” he said. “At a full public hearing, everybody gets to come and people get to stand up and say, ‘The health issues are this, what is your plan to fix that?’”

And while Port Metro Vancouver isn’t under any legal obligation to hold a public hearing, Campbell and Williams are hopeful the authority will hold one out of public interest.

“There’s nothing that compels them to hold a public hearing, but on the other hand, there’s nothing to say they cannot,” said Campbell. “The ultimate goal is that Port Metro Vancouver realizes there’s huge public opposition to this particular proposal and it makes no economic sense, no social sense and there’s no social licence to proceed.”

To reach that goal, the two hoped the City of Surrey would play a role.

“I think they want to do the right thing and are looking forward to the delegation on Monday,” said Williams. cpoon@thenownewspaper.com

First meeting at new city hall to be 2014

CITY CENTRE — Surrey isn’t expected to hold a council meeting in the new $97million city hall until 2014.

The City of Surrey’s website has posted September as the targeted grand opening date, but Surrey’s general manager of human resources Nicola Webb has said the building has always been scheduled for completion in fall 2013 – a much broader window.

Coun. Linda Hepner said while IT is in the building already, Surrey council will be the

last to make the move to its new digs.

“I think that probably over the next several weeks people will be moving in, but mayor and council, I believe, are the last to go. We’re scheduled to go some time in December,” Hepner said.

“We will, I expect, have our very first meeting in city hall in the new year.”

Coun. Linda Hepner said the new chamber “looks a little more grown up.”

“It will accommodate if we ever got to

the size that Vancouver has of 11 (council members)... And we’ll be farther apart from each other,” she said.

Hepner said the new council chambers will also be better technologically.

“The sound, the acoustics, the ability to control temperature and the comfort level for those in the gallery. It’s slightly graduated.

Your line of sight and your ability to connect with everybody in the room will be better.”

Dhaliwal said all the utilities had been cut off and the house was in the process of being demolished.

SURREY — Surrey firefighters suspect arson in the destruction of a house in Whalley early Friday morning.

But investigators have determined that the structure was too badly burned for them to be able to confirm how the blaze was started.

“Our investigation has turned up that it’s an unknown,” Deputy Fire Chief John Caviglia said Friday afternoon. “The fire destroyed the house too much to conduct an investigation and so the fire cause is unknown.”

The abandoned house, at 10315 142nd St., near Cedar Grove Park, was all but burned to the ground just after midnight. A dozen firefighters fought the blaze. No one was injured.

Liquor law overhaul nearly done InTheHouse Keith Baldrey

O

ther than its allin approach to creating a liquefied natural gas industry and talking about growing the economy, the B.C. Liberal government is not particularly active when it comes to other initiatives.

It is not a government bent on fixing all kinds of things or sticking its nose in a lot of peoples’ business. When the legislature resumes sitting next February, don’t expect a heavy legislative package to be put before the house (except for bills relating directly to economic measures).

But there is a big exception to this light touch of lawmaking that will affect many people, and that is the looming overhaul of the province’s liquor laws.

Changing the rules when it comes to alcohol use is always tinged with controversy, which is why major changes rarely occur. The last significant

overhaul was done for the province’s Expo 86, although there has been the occasional tweak since then.

B.C. Liberal MLA John Yap is heading up the review. The public consultation phase ends this week and so far Yap has received a blizzard of feedback.

The website set up for the review has had more than 50,000 hits (average stay: 10 minutes) while there have been more than 100 email submissions and almost 60 meetings with stakeholders.

It’s not surprising there is enormous public interest in the subject, given the evolution of B.C.’s laws governing alcohol. Framed against modern attitudes, some of the old laws seem downright bizarre and would surprise most people today that they even exist.

For example, how many people know that vodka (today’s most popular distilled spirit) was banned in B.C. until 1960? Or that music was only permitted in drinking establishments in 1954?

Sunday openings only became legal as a pilot project for Expo 86, and that was the year that import draft beer was first

available. Women were prevented from working in government liquor stores until 1962.

But some odd laws still remain on the books, and I suspect many will disappear after Yap’s review becomes legislation.

Licensees currently can’t change their prices during the day, which means no “happy hour” specials, a common attraction in most U.S. establishments. I’m betting that rule will be relaxed.

As well, licensed clubs (such as a Legion) have to prepare their own food on site and are not allowed to contract that service out, which seems unreasonable if not archaic.

Did you know liquor tastings can only be done using plastic cups instead of glasses? Or that you can’t take a drink from a bar

into a restaurant, even if the two establishments are adjoining?

Most of these rules and regulations fall into the red tape category and may be more easily dealt with than other, more complex issues that have come up in the review.

The various stakeholders in the liquor industry – pubs, restaurants, private liquor stores, breweries, wineries, etc. – all have positions on a number of reforms they’d like to see implemented, or perhaps blocked.

A number of them are contradictory as well.

There seems to be a general consensus that B.C. has enough outlets – public and private – that dispense alcohol, although B.C.’s wine and craft brewer industries would like more access and visibility in the

marketplace.

But there is one huge exception: Yap’s review has found the number-one hot button issue is that people want the convenience of buying wine or beer in their local grocery story.

The idea is viewed with considerable alarm by pubs and private store owners, who have invested huge amounts of capital in their operations and don’t want to be threatened by a mom and pop grocery on the corner.

This is just one of the more controversial issues Yap will have to address when he hands in his recommendations to Attorney-General Suzanne Anton next month.

Another is that pub owners argue the pendulum has swung too far in favour of restaurants, and want the playing field levelled

(one idea they are pushing is allowing minors on the premises during the day, to join a parent for lunch, perhaps).

Then there is the medical and law enforcement communities, which understandably are pushing back against any major loosening of rules that would make alcohol easier to obtain.

So how far will the B.C. Liberal government go in this sensitive area?

But mixing alcohol with politics is a more potent cocktail, which is why the government will find it easier to cut red tape rather than wholesale changes when it comes to booze.

CLAYTON HEIGHTS — Mail theft is on the rise in Clayton Heights, particularly in neighbourhoods with community mailboxes.

Monique Goodman, a resident of Clayton Heights for the last nine years, said someone started prying open community mailboxes in her neighbourhood right after Thanksgiving.

“My next door neighbours were away for two weeks and they came back after the long weekend to get the mail and noticed that the box was empty,” she said. “That’s when she investigated that, apparently, there was mail theft.”

Goodman said this if the first time she’s heard of mail theft in the area, though she’s noticed that crime in general is on the rise. “There’s been other theft like off of porches and things like that. You don’t leave anything nice on your porch because people will take it.”

While Clayton Heights is considered a generally safe area, Goodman said “it’s really going downhill.”

“My son is 17, but I worry about him

by press time, police were searching for the driver of a possibly stolen red 1991 Ford Lariat pickup truck which crashed into a power pole in the 3200-block of 200th Street early Thursday morning. The driver fled the scene, but police recovered a large quantity of mail stolen from communities throughout Surrey and Langley from the accident.

The recovered mail will be returned to Canada Post and redelivered.

Paquet said residents should report suspicious people, vehicles or activity in their neighbourhoods – especially in close proximity to community mailboxes.

To prevent mail theft, Paquet recommended you pick up your mail as soon as possible, ensure your mailbox is secure and contact Canada Post at 1800-267-1177 if you see any damaged or overturned mailboxes.

“There’s a lot that they can do to minimize the chances of having their mail stolen,” he said.

Anyone with information about the truck crash in Langley is asked to call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200 or CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

‘Ascent’ team member climbs for parents Sharon Arthur and others scaled Mt. Kilimanjaro to raise close to $100,000 for Alzheimer Society of B.C. SEE VIDEO AND MORE PHOTOS WITH LAYAR

Tom Zillich Now staff Twitter @tomzillich

SURREY — As she trained for many months to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro, Sharon Arthur would often crank Bon Jovi’s “It’s My Life,” which became a theme song for the Surrey resident’s charitable cause.

Earlier this month, midnight approached as she prepared to summit the mountain in Tanzania with other members of the Ascent for Alzheimer’s team.

“It felt like we could touch the stars as we were climbing,” Arthur recalled, “and the moon was bright orange – just amazing.

And five minutes out, before we reached the summit, ‘It’s My Life’ came on my iPod shuffle. It was so perfect – ‘It’s now or never,’ and I got into a zone and did it. It was so inspiring.”

Arthur, who lives in the Ocean Park area, was among eight team members who this year set out to do the Ascent for Alzheimer’s, a signature annual event for the Alzheimer Society of B.C. The team left for Africa on Sept. 25; to be part of the week-long adventure, each team member had to raise a minimum $10,000 and cover their own travel expenses.

“Doing something like this, on such a huge scale, was a first for me, and very fitting,” Arthur told the Now. “Both of my parents were diagnosed with Alzheimer’s

disease. In kind of a cruel twist of fate, they were both nurses and owned a nursing home in Abbotsford for 26 years that helped care for people who had similar health issues.”

As a teenager, Arthur remembers watching slides of a trip to Mt. Kilimanjaro by a resident of the care home.

“That was an inspiration to do this, too,” Arthur noted.

Climbing the mountain was tougher than the guide, Sue Oakey-Baker, let on, Arthur said with a laugh.

To prepare, she hired a personal trainer and often cycled, for the cardio workout.

“We did some pre-arranged hikes in the summer, including Wedgemount Lake in Whistler, which was quite grueling and pretty close to simulating (Mt. Kilimanjaro).

I think we gained more than 1,000 metres on that hike, to give us a taste of what it would be like over there.”

For Ascent for Alzheimer’s team members, the hike up Kilimanjaro is supposed to simulate the affects of the debilitating disease on the human body.

“We could climb and return, but for people who have Alzheimer’s, that’s it for them – they’re on a steady decline,” Arthur said.

She encourages people to get involved in next year’s Ascent, details of which can be found online at www.alzheimerbc.org.

“It was a life-changing experience,” Arthur said.

At the top of the mountain, she left a little silver box filled with letters she and her sister wrote to their parents.

“It was a full-circle moment completing the climb and also remembering them.” tzillich@thenownewspaper.com

Sharon Arthur stands at the Uhuru peak of Mt. Kilimanjaro during her adventure there as part of the 2013 Ascent for Alzheimer’s team. “It was a life-changing experience,” said Arthur, who lives in the Ocean Park area of Surrey.

Kwantlen business students launch Must Stache Co. Carolyn Cooke Now staff Twitter @carolyncooke1

SURREY — Now everyone can have a mustache.

Three Kwantlen Polytechnic University business students have created a line of Tshirts with the Movember mustache symbol for their final school project. The last class of the four-year entrepreneurship program has students create actual companies and run them for six weeks.

Katrina Babbini, Jim Martens and Jaskirat Bedi launched Must Stache Co. with the goal of raising $8,300 through T-shirt sales.

Once the sales period is up, they intend part of the proceeds to prostate cancer research, whereas the rest goes to the Kwantlen Venture Fund.

The idea came through Babbini’s parttime job at a gym when she was talking with an older member who has prostate cancer.

“We got to talking about the Movember

The shirts are now on sale, with partial proceeds going to charity. (Photo: JACOB ZINN) movement and what he thought of it,” said Babbini. “He really thought it was wonderful and one of the things he liked the most was the mustache symbol – it really

made him smile.”

She said she liked the idea that something that symbolized a devastating disease could also be a source of happiness, so when the

time came to formulate a business idea, she and her teammates decided to run with it.

“I love the feeling, the connection, that people would feel looking at me or someone else in a T-shirt (like this),” said Bedi.

The shirts sell for $20 individually or three for $50. Shirts can also be ordered in bulk, with a base cost of $12 each and an extra dollar for customization – be it having a company name printed under the mustache or slim fit or black instead of the basic white.

Babbini said the orthodontic specialists at South Surrey Smiles have thrown their support behind their company as well as prostate cancer research, and have ordered 80 shirts.

Martens said they would love to see more of this too.

“We really want to focus on getting businesses involved,” he said. “A lot of businesses already do Movember things during November and we’d really love for them to get on board.”

To order T-shirts from Must Stache Co., people can email muststacheco@gmail.com, find them on Facebook or call Babbini at 778-889-2024. ccooke@thenownewspaper.com

Happy 100th to Hazel Amy Reid Now staff Twitter @amyreid87

WHITE ROCK — White Rock’s Hazel Winnifred Andrew will be celebrating the big 100 in a few days.

Currently residing in the Ocean View Care Home in the city by the sea, Hazel’s story began in Vancouver, where she was born on Nov. 3, 1913.

Later in life, Hazel graduated as a registered nurse from Edmonton’s Royal Alexandra Hospital in 1939 and married George Andrew on Sept. 30, 1941. The couple raised one son, Billy Andrew.

When asked how she feels to be approaching her 100th birthday, Hazel said, “It just happens. Hours go by, and it just happens.

“People have made a bit of a fuss about it,” she said, with rosy red cheeks and a seemingly permanent smile.

Hazel enjoys many activities, such as camping, horseback riding, baking and fishing. And her family says she’s always had that great sense of humour.

“Well that’s good to report,” she said, still smiling.

When told she would be getting a letter

Hazel Winnifred Andrew celebrates her 100th birthday on Sunday, Nov. 3 with family and friends. from the Queen for her 100th birthday, Hazel’s eyes lit up.

“Oh my, that’s very considerate of her, because she has a very heavy schedule,” she said.

Hazel’s family is celebrating her birthday with her on Nov. 3.

Her eyes lit up again when she was told the festivities would include the song “When Irish Eyes are Smiling,” which topped the charts the year of her birth.

“I like that song very much,” she said.

COMMUNITY Soup de Jour event

Surrey Urban Mission officially opens doors in Whalley Amy Reid Now staff Twitter @amyreid87

WHALLEY — After more than a decade operating out of a shared building, the Surrey Urban Mission has a place to call its own. The organization showed off its new space on Friday during its annual Soup de Jour event.

The “grand opening” event included food and fundraising, such as a silent and live auction.

“It’s been quite a journey of not knowing where we were going to be, to just knowing we would be,” said mission director Jonquil Hallgate.

Formerly located at 13388 104th Ave., the mission’s new home is at 10776 King George Blvd. in a storefront that has previously housed a Union Gospel Thrift Store and Whalley Bowling Lanes.

The mission moved into its new location in mid-June and construction has been going on ever since.

“Finally, having some sense of being settled and working with the people in the business community to meet their needs and ensure that the folks that we care about can still receive service. We’re sort of all on

Longtime volunteers Sally Ann Ratcliffe and June Ariano-Jakes in the impressive new kitchen at Surrey Urban Mission’s new space. (Photo: GORD GOBLE) the same page now because it didn’t start out that way.”

Hallgate sends thanks to all the individuals and businesses that contributed to the mission’s new home.

A gift of $1 million from the Evangelical

Lutheran Church in Canada - BC Synod and Christ the King Lutheran Church meant the mission could purchase its new home.

And Bosa Properties Foundation funded a commercial kitchen that will enable

the mission to serve food as well as offer community kitchen programs and training.

“It is a gift that will last for many years,” Hallgate said.

Many other businesses and individuals contributed, through donations or volunteer time, and there was a lot to do, including putting up walls and redoing flooring.

“It was a box when we got here,” she said.

There are many perks in the new space, including a bright waiting area, a shower that will be particularly useful during extreme weather season, a meeting room, a computer area, a wellness centre and other amenities.

Out back is a small garden and just steps away, the mission has gained access to a community garden for guests to putter in.

“I don’t think when we dreamed of what the future would be, we kind of didn’t anticipate having a place that was ours.

That is pretty brilliant,” Hallgate said.

“The possibilities are endless. It allows us the opportunity to be able to offer programs 24/7... Buildings are meant to be worn out.”

PANORAMA RIDGE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The change in Edward was astounding.

Edward Parker had trouble at school, was clumsy and struggled to read early on. Initially he was diagnosed as having mild autism, but after a referral to Dr. Sandy Johal of Panorama Optometry, the Vancouver boy discovered at age seven that the real problem was his vision. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Before vision therapy, his eyes were not aligned,â&#x20AC;? said Johal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What we would see is that one of the eyes would actually turn out and he would have double vision.â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s apparently a fairly common problem, she said, but with vision therapy to train his eye muscles, his mom Renee noticed dramatic improvement in just a matter of weeks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve noticed Edward improving in other areas, you know, like the art that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really stepped up,â&#x20AC;? said his mom.

Now that Edward is 10, he has

Dr. Sandy Johal of Panorama Optometry checks Edward Parkerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vision. His eye condition was misdiagnosed as mild autism until he was referred to Johal and underwent vision therapy for a neuro-musclar problem. (Photo: JACOB ZINN) discovered a love of books. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love reading,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am now a very good goalie when it comes to hockey and soccer.â&#x20AC;?

October is Eye Health Month and Johal and other optometrists want people to know how important it is to have childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vision checked thoroughly. The general recommendation is that kids are checked at six months of age, have one exam between two and five years old and then yearly after that. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I personally think six months of age and yearly after that,â&#x20AC;? said Johal.

She said the earlier a condition is

caught, the better the prognosis, and since childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eyes change so much in the first few years, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best to check more often than not.

Most vision problems have no obvious symptoms, said Johal, and some eye diseases only show symptoms when it is too late. Too many parents wrongly believe they would know if there was an issue needing treatment.

She also cautions against buying eyewear online. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was a study that found almost half of eyewear ordered online failed at least one parameter of ocular or impact testing.â&#x20AC;?

Hippie Mike sets up shop in Surrey Jacob Zinn Now contributor Twitter @jacobzinn

WHALLEY — Local skateboarding legend Hippie Mike – real name Mike Faux – has had a deck under his feet for more than three decades, but he’s just now breaking ground with his longtime dream of opening his own skate shop.

Faux is set to open Authentic Board Supply, an independent skateboard shop, at the Dell Shopping Centre in the heart of Whalley, on Friday, Nov. 1. ABS will join the local skate shop scene alongside the likes of Coastal Riders in Guildford, Ollie North in Cloverdale and Pura Vida Skateboards and Apparel in South Surrey.

Recently, the other skate shop that has been in Surrey for a long time moved to Langley.

The shop is three blocks away from Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre, home to one of Faux’s personal top three skateparks in the Lower Mainland. While Faux could have set up shop anywhere in the city, he picked Whalley for a number of reasons, the top being the local kids who’ve benefitted from his work as a skateboard instructor and youth worker for the City of Surrey over the last 10 years.

“I’ve made a lot of relationships with a lot of certain kids and skateboarders in general – they just want someone to have a conversation with that they can relate to,” he said. “Those kids can still feel free to come by and hang out.”

He added, “Recently, the other skate shop that has been in Surrey for a long time moved to Langley, so there wasn’t really many opportunities for the kids to go to a skate shop anymore. I wanted to try to be as

“Hippie Mike” Faux 5-0s the lip of the shallow bowl at the nearby Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre. After 10 years of thinking about starting his own independent skate shop, “Hippie Mike” Faux is opening Authentic Board Supply in the Dell Shopping Centre in Whalley on the first weekend of November. (Photo: JACOB ZINN) close to this skate park as possible.”

Faux has put his work with the city on hold so he can dedicate his time to opening his shop, but he’s assured that once things are up and running, he will still organize skateboard camps and competitions.

ABS will sell typical skateboard fare – decks, trucks, griptape, wheels, stickers, curb wax and clothing – across most major brands, as well as Faux’s Protest Skateboards company.

In addition, ABS has sponsored a team of six local skateboarders handpicked by Faux to promote the brand at skateboard demos, but Faux’s not saying who they are just yet.

“Nobody knows who those people are except me.”

Faux hopes that his shop will further his pursuit to make skateboarding accessible to everybody, stressing the importance of the sport as a creative outlet in contrast to traditional team sports.

“People always look at skateboarders as kids and they look at the older guys and they go, ‘Why do you skateboard? You’re 30 years old, you’re 40 years old,’” he said. “They don’t understand that part, that this is your soul. That’s how you express your true self.

“Every person that skateboards skates differently, and nobody can tell them that what they’re doing is wrong.”

ABS will be at 10604 King George Blvd.

Surrey to host women’s fastpitch world tourney #HFOI SEE BID PRESENTATION VIDEO

friday, December 6, 7:00PM Tickets At

Or Call 1-855-985-5000 LangleyEvents

SURREY — The 2016 Women’s World Fastpitch Championships are set to be held in Surrey, making it the first world championship softball event for the city.

Following the 18-month development of Surrey’s bid for the illustrious contest, the International Softball Federation (ISF) awarded the bid to Surrey during the ISF congress in Cartagena, Colombia.

“We believe international sport competition brings with it the spirit of peace and friendship,” said Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts in a statement. “Additionally, securing an event of this magnitude is strongly aligned with our sport tourism strategy and economic action plan.”

The championships will bring the world’s best fastpitch athletes from more than 30 countries to Surrey and will require 400 volunteers.

For the past few years, the city has hosted the Scotiabank Canadian Open Fastpitch International Championship, showcasing Softball City and other local athletic parks as suitable locations for top athletic competition. Before that, Surrey hosted international fastpitch with an annual Canada Cup tournament.

langleyeventscentre.com

Coun. Tom Gill, who chairs the city’s finance committee, added in a statement, “We continue to look for ways to utilize Surrey’s world-class facilities to bring economic generation to our city. It’s incredibly important that the facilities we are building for the use of our residents are also being leveraged to host events of this scale, which bring significant investment into our city.

“The strategic investments made under the Build Surrey program allow the city to enter the world’s stage for sport hosting – winning this event is a springboard in making that vision a reality.”

The 10-day sporting event will tentatively be held between July 15 and 24, 2016, and is expected to coincide with the ninth annual Fusion Festival.

Presenting 7 awards for Youth Achievement

Norm Rinne

Friday, November 1, 2013

Senior Director, Business Development Kinder Morgan Canada

Bell Performing Arts Centre, Surrey

Kinder Morgan Canada is proposing an expansion of its existing 1,150-kilometre Trans Mountain Pipeline, which runs from Strathcona County (near Edmonton) to Burnaby, BC. If approved, the proposed $5.4 billion project would increase the capacity of the pipeline that transports a variety of energy products for local and international markets.

Doors open 7pm l Award Show 8pm

The proposed twinning of the existing pipeline, in operation since 1953, offers a wide range of bene¿ts including new jobs, procurement opportunities and other positive spinoffs for BC and Alberta communities – during the twoyear construction phase and long-term operations.

The Trans Mountain team is committed to creating local economic opportunities along the construction right-of-way. Norm Rinne will describe the various stages and types of jobs, procurement possibilities, and local workforce spending involved in building a pipeline. The presentation will include a progress report on the proposed project and how businesses in the Surrey area can prepare to participate in the project.

Surrey city council pressed to take position on coal terminal Christopher Poon Now staff Twitter @questionchris

SURREY — While neighbouring municipalities have already taken a stance on the Fraser Surrey Docks proposed coal transfer facility, one voice that has remained silent is perhaps the city that would be most affected: the City of Surrey.

While municipalities like White Rock, New Westminster and Vancouver have taken measures to express their disapproval of the proposed project, Surrey council has remained largely silent on the issue. On Monday, opponents of the proposal were hoping to change that.

Paula Williams of Communities and Coal, a local organization dedicated to fighting the increase of coal trains through the area, will be appearing before council in an effort to have them come out in opposition to the project.

Looking at other municipalities as inspiration, the Ocean Park resident hoped that by presenting on behalf of the thousands of residents opposed to the project, she could convince council to take the same stance.

“What we’re asking is Surrey council to officially oppose the Fraser Surrey Docks proposal as it stands today until a comprehensive health-impact assessment is done by an independent third party and also full public hearings are held,” said Williams. “Until that point, we believe Surrey can’t properly endorse it until it’s proven to the public to be safe.”

According to Williams, the public consultation sessions that have already been held by Fraser Surrey Docks and Port Metro Vancouver have done little to ease the concerns of residents and organizations.

“They call it consultation but they are very scripted meetings. They don’t allow for people to openly express how they feel. It’s not a democratic process, it’s more of an information session and so it’s very concerning,” she said.

A train loaded with coal passes people at the beach in White Rock. On Monday, opponents of a proposed coal transfer facility at Fraser Surrey Docks pressed Surrey city council on the issue. For the latest, visit www.thenowewspaper.com.

Sponsorship program

Plaques for city’s unmarked graves City staff create program to install memorial markers on unmarked gravesites in Surrey’s civic cemeteries Amy Reid Now staff Twitter @amyreid87

SURREY — Surrey’s three civic cemeteries contain roughly 350 gravesites that do not have memorial markers identifying those buried.

While the Ministry of Social Development has a program that pays for the interment of individuals whose families can’t afford a burial or cremation, the program doesn’t cover the installation of a memorial marker.

City of Surrey staff have partnered with a local business to provide free markers to families receiving help from the ministry in the future. More than 30 families have already been assisted.

Now the city is launching a sponsorship program to get markers for the 350 unmarked graves.

“It’s not just a patch of grass,” said Anna Terrace, Surrey’s cemetery co-ordinator.

Currently, unmarked graves are just a grassy area with no indication that someone has been buried at that spot.

“Imagine if you’re a family member coming in, and you haven’t been here for a while. There’s really nothing to identify that they’re even here,” she said, which is very important for visiting and things like leaving flowers.

“We’re very proud to be able to provide this program to families. Being a city cemetery, our focus is on the community and doing what we can to help.”

Terrace first thought of the program last November, when a woman called into the office who hadn’t been to her husband’s grave in quite some time. When she went to visit him, she couldn’t find his grave.

Terrace met with Stonemarks Engraving, and the business offered to provide a marker to families assisted by the ministry in the

Distorted fingerprint means acquittal for accused man

Anna Terrace, Surrey’s cemetery co-ordinator, holds up a temporary marker for a gravesite that is going to receive a real marker at Sunnyside Lawn Cemetery, thanks to a new program initiatied by City of Surrey staff. future, at no charge.

“I can only imagine, putting a name with their dates – when they were born and the end – that dash in the middle signifies their whole life. I can only imagine if I was in that situation that I would be honoured and thankful and just glad that a program like this is available.”

Terrace said it’s important for the community as well.

“I think it’s important for our community to recognize our community members.

How many times do you walk through a cemetery and take a look at the names and dates and wonder who that person was. We don’t need to know their financial status, it’s proof that they were here and they existed.

It’s very important that as we walk around the cemetery, and when we’re standing in a specific spot that we recognize that was a life

lived, and deserves recognition regardless of financial status.”

Terrace said to her knowledge, Surrey is the first city in North America to do a program like this and said she would love to see other municipalities follow suit.

Owen Croy, Surrey’s manager of parks, said the project is interesting from a genealogical perspective.

“It’s kind of neat to be able to know who is in the city cemeteries. If you go to some of our pioneer cemeteries that have been operating there for 100 years, it’s really kind of neat to stroll through a little bit of history.”

Croy said he hopes the project will help people see cemeteries in a brighter light.

“People have maybe some dark thoughts sometimes, or sad thoughts, associated with cemeteries. Other people are now

recognizing cemeteries as a place for remembrance in a very positive way. We hope that this maybe moves us to more remembrance in a positive fashion.”

The city is hosting an event today (Oct. 29) at Sunnyside Lawn Cemetery from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Family members will be present to witness the installation of memorials on the gravesites of their deceased relatives.

“Really, by raising awareness through this modest event, we will be able to start identifying people who may be able to philanthropically contribute toward this really worthy program.... This might strike a chord with some people,” Croy said.

Those wishing to get involved and donate can call the city’s cemetery office at 604598-5770 or email cemeteryinfo@surrey.ca.

SURREY — It all came down to a distorted fingerprint on a box containing a carnival ghoul doll.

A man accused of burglarizing a house in Fleetwood while its owners were away has been acquitted of break, enter and theft because the judge couldn’t be sure a partial fingerprint belonged to him.

Timothy Dale Bornyk was accused of forcing his way into the house and ransacking it in July 2010 while the homeowners were away at their cottage in Washington.

The Crown’s case relied on a single fingerprint found in the home, which had been up for sale at the time.

Justice Gordon Funt delivered his verdict in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver.

He heard from a realtor who said Bornyk did not attend any of several open houses there, as she would have seen him if he did.

One of the homeowners collected novelty items and the fingerprint had been found on the plastic wrapping of a box containing a “Living Dead Doll.”

But ripples in the plastic distorted the print, the judge noted. “For practical purposes, it was a partial fingerprint.”

While the Surrey RCMP held there was enough there to confirm a match, Funt disagreed. “While the usable portion of the latent fingerprint and the known fingerprint are quite similar, I have more than a reasonable doubt that there is a match of the latent fingerprint to the known fingerprint,” he found. “Accordingly, I acquit the accused.”

INFLUENCE DECISIONS.

Two stabbings, one murder SURREY — Surrey Mounties were on scene investigating a stabbing in Newton on Friday night when a bystander alerted them to another stabbing victim, in an unrelated assault, just a block away.

“We believe both incidents to be targeted and definitely not random attacks,” Cpl. Bert Paquet said. “They are not related to one another.”

The stabbings happened one block apart and within 40 minutes of one another.

At about 11:15 p.m. a 58-year-old man was found lying on the ground in the 13800-block of 72nd Avenue, suffering a stab wound to his neck. Paquet said police believe the victim was intoxicated but don’t know if that had anything to do with the crime. He has since been released from hospital.

“We looked for witnesses but haven’t found anybody to confirm what happened,” Paquet said.

While police were still on site, a bystander reported to the officers that a 20-year-old woman had been found nearby, in the 13900-block of 72nd Avenue, with a cut to her neck.

“They found her sitting down,” Paquet said.

She was taken to hospital to be treated for

a “superficial” wound, he said.

Paquet said the second attack involved “apparently an argument over stolen property.”

Nobody had been arrested by press time Monday.

Meanwhile, homicide investigators are still looking for a killer after a man’s body was found slumped over in his car in the driveway of a Fleetwood rancher early Friday morning.

Surrey RCMP received several 911 calls of shots being fired in the 8600-block of 156th Street at about 5 a.m. Friday.

The victim has been identified but his name had not been released by press time.

“We don’t have the motive yet,” said Sgt. Jennifer Pound, spokeswoman for the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team.

She said the victim did not have a criminal record. The RCMP had a tent set up in the driveway, at 8615 156th St., as they went about their investigation.

“The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team is leading this investigation and are currently working with Surrey RCMP and canvassing the neighbourhood,” Pound said.

Police are asking anyone with information to contact the IHIT tip line at 1-877-5574448.

To see how council responded to the presentation, check Thursday’s edition of the Now or go online to www. thenownewspaper.com.

“Our group has spread from South Surrey all the way to Texada Island, we’ve been holding town hall meetings and we’re finding time and time again that people are in the dark.”

Due to join Williams in her presentation to council was Bob Campbell, vice-chair of the city’s environmental advisory committee and current director of the West Panorama Ridge Ratepayers Association.

“In a perfect world we want (council) to fully oppose it,” said Campbell.

“But if they’re uncomfortable with straight out opposing it, which we think most citizens would want, then at least say we’re opposed until you conduct a full public hearing and you conduct this health impact assessment as recommended by the public health officers of this region.”

Campbell noted that the residents of Surrey would be most affected by the project’s increase in coal train traffic through the region, and because of that,

they deserve to have their leaders take a position on it.

“From a community standpoint this is one of the issues that seemed to have galvanized a community more so than we can recall,” he said. “If you’re not willing to act on this one, then which one are you willing to act on?”

According to Campbell, the goal of having council come out against the proposal would be to put pressure on Port Metro Vancouver to hold public hearings, something that the authority has so far refused to do. Instead, the authority has held open house information sessions, something Campbell says are just optics.

“It’s really just a way of ticking the box and saying they’re in touch with

people. The implication being that they’ve satisfied concern,” he said. “At a full public hearing, everybody gets to come and people get to stand up and say, ‘The health issues are this, what is your plan to fix that?’”

And while Port Metro Vancouver isn’t under any legal obligation to hold a public hearing, Campbell and Williams are hopeful the authority will hold one out of public interest.

“There’s nothing that compels them to hold a public hearing, but on the other hand, there’s nothing to say they cannot,” said Campbell. “The ultimate goal is that Port Metro Vancouver realizes there’s huge public opposition to this particular proposal and it makes no economic sense, no social sense and there’s no social licence to proceed.”

To reach that goal, the two hoped the City of Surrey would play a role.

“I think they want to do the right thing and are looking forward to the delegation on Monday,” said Williams. cpoon@thenownewspaper.com

NEWS Surrey council

First meeting at new city hall to be 2014

CITY CENTRE — Surrey isn’t expected to hold a council meeting in the new $97million city hall until 2014.

The City of Surrey’s website has posted September as the targeted grand opening date, but Surrey’s general manager of human resources Nicola Webb has said the building has always been scheduled for completion in fall 2013 – a much broader window.

Coun. Linda Hepner said while IT is in the building already, Surrey council will be the

last to make the move to its new digs.

“I think that probably over the next several weeks people will be moving in, but mayor and council, I believe, are the last to go. We’re scheduled to go some time in December,” Hepner said.

“We will, I expect, have our very first meeting in city hall in the new year.”

Coun. Linda Hepner said the new chamber “looks a little more grown up.”

“It will accommodate if we ever got to

the size that Vancouver has of 11 (council members)... And we’ll be farther apart from each other,” she said.

Hepner said the new council chambers will also be better technologically.

“The sound, the acoustics, the ability to control temperature and the comfort level for those in the gallery. It’s slightly graduated.

Your line of sight and your ability to connect with everybody in the room will be better.”

NEWS Questionnaire

White Rock residents asked for input on new art walls

The City of White Rock is asking residents for their opinion on having more public art, such as a mural like this one, on walls around the city by the sea.

Deadline for giving feedback through the city’s online questionnaire is Friday, Nov. 15.

Christopher Poon Now staff Twitter @questionchris

WHITE ROCK — When it comes to local art walls, perhaps none is more famous than the whale wall at Russell Avenue and Johnston Road. Arguably one of White Rock’s most well-known and well-viewed pieces, the city is hoping to replicate that success using other blank walls around town.

To do that, residents are being asked for their opinion on what types of installations they might want to see around the city, be it the standard murals or mosaics or the more modern green walls and relief walls.

“We’re looking to see if people are interested if this is something they’d be happy with,” said Claire Halpburn, the city’s manager of cultural development.

“Some of our walls are not in the best shape so we’d start with (decorating) Semiahmoo Library’s living wall is one city-owned walls and before we start option being considered by the City of White Rock. the process we wanted to make sure this was something the community really wanted.”

The initiative stems from a recommendation made back in May by the city’s public art advisory committee, where it was determined that adding more art walls would serve to better the community.

“Mayor (Wayne) Baldwin advised that there were a lot of retaining walls in White Rock and that this might be something the community might want to pursue,” said Halpburn.

“So this would not only serve to beautify, but to help with the city’s strategic planning towards arts and culture and to distinguish it from other cities.”

To gauge interest, the city is hosting a questionnaire on its website and recently held a public forum for residents to come out and express their opinions on the matter.

“So at the community forum we had four different types of walls shown: murals, mosaics, relief walls and green walls,” explained Halpburn.

While most people are familiar with murals and mosaics, the latter two are increasing in popularity, said Halpburn.

Relief walls are 3D art installations set upon walls while a green wall is an artistic use of plants and greenery to cover a wall. Halpburn pointed to Semiahmoo Library’s green wall as a good example of what might be possible elsewhere in the city.

During the forum, Halpburn said a fifth option was also brought up by a member of the public: digital projection walls.

“There was a digital artist there so he talked a bit about what he did in projecting art onto blank walls,” explained Halpburn. “Those would be non-permanent installations.”

Those interested in submitting their opinions on the city’s art walls are asked to fill out a questionnaire, which can be found at www.whiterockcity.ca. Deadline for feedback is Nov. 15.

B.C. politics

Liquor law overhaul nearly done InTheHouse Keith Baldrey

O

ther than its allin approach to creating a liquefied natural gas industry and talking about growing the economy, the B.C. Liberal government is not particularly active when it comes to other initiatives.

It is not a government bent on fixing all kinds of things or sticking its nose in a lot of peoples’ business. When the legislature resumes sitting next February, don’t expect a heavy legislative package to be put before the house (except for bills relating directly to economic measures).

But there is a big exception to this light touch of lawmaking that will affect many people, and that is the looming overhaul of the province’s liquor laws.

Changing the rules when it comes to alcohol use is always tinged with controversy, which is why major changes rarely occur. The last significant

overhaul was done for the province’s Expo 86, although there has been the occasional tweak since then.

B.C. Liberal MLA John Yap is heading up the review. The public consultation phase ends this week and so far Yap has received a blizzard of feedback.

The website set up for the review has had more than 50,000 hits (average stay: 10 minutes) while there have been more than 100 email submissions and almost 60 meetings with stakeholders.

It’s not surprising there is enormous public interest in the subject, given the evolution of B.C.’s laws governing alcohol. Framed against modern attitudes, some of the old laws seem downright bizarre and would surprise most people today that they even exist.

For example, how many people know that vodka (today’s most popular distilled spirit) was banned in B.C. until 1960? Or that music was only permitted in drinking establishments in 1954?

Sunday openings only became legal as a pilot project for Expo 86, and that was the year that import draft beer was first

available. Women were prevented from working in government liquor stores until 1962.

But some odd laws still remain on the books, and I suspect many will disappear after Yap’s review becomes legislation.

Licensees currently can’t change their prices during the day, which means no “happy hour” specials, a common attraction in most U.S. establishments. I’m betting that rule will be relaxed.

As well, licensed clubs (such as a Legion) have to prepare their own food on site and are not allowed to contract that service out, which seems unreasonable if not archaic.

Did you know liquor tastings can only be done using plastic cups instead of glasses? Or that you can’t take a drink from a bar

into a restaurant, even if the two establishments are adjoining?

Most of these rules and regulations fall into the red tape category and may be more easily dealt with than other, more complex issues that have come up in the review.

The various stakeholders in the liquor industry – pubs, restaurants, private liquor stores, breweries, wineries, etc. – all have positions on a number of reforms they’d like to see implemented, or perhaps blocked.

A number of them are contradictory as well.

There seems to be a general consensus that B.C. has enough outlets – public and private – that dispense alcohol, although B.C.’s wine and craft brewer industries would like more access and visibility in the

marketplace.

But there is one huge exception: Yap’s review has found the number-one hot button issue is that people want the convenience of buying wine or beer in their local grocery story.

The idea is viewed with considerable alarm by pubs and private store owners, who have invested huge amounts of capital in their operations and don’t want to be threatened by a mom and pop grocery on the corner.

This is just one of the more controversial issues Yap will have to address when he hands in his recommendations to Attorney-General Suzanne Anton next month.

Another is that pub owners argue the pendulum has swung too far in favour of restaurants, and want the playing field levelled

(one idea they are pushing is allowing minors on the premises during the day, to join a parent for lunch, perhaps).

Then there is the medical and law enforcement communities, which understandably are pushing back against any major loosening of rules that would make alcohol easier to obtain.

So how far will the B.C. Liberal government go in this sensitive area?

Talking about LNG and the economy is easy.

But mixing alcohol with politics is a more potent cocktail, which is why the government will find it easier to cut red tape rather than wholesale changes when it comes to booze.

CLAYTON HEIGHTS — Mail theft is on the rise in Clayton Heights, particularly in neighbourhoods with community mailboxes.

Monique Goodman, a resident of Clayton Heights for the last nine years, said someone started prying open community mailboxes in her neighbourhood right after Thanksgiving.

“My next door neighbours were away for two weeks and they came back after the long weekend to get the mail and noticed that the box was empty,” she said. “That’s when she investigated that, apparently, there was mail theft.”

Goodman said this if the first time she’s heard of mail theft in the area, though she’s noticed that crime in general is on the rise. “There’s been other theft like off of porches and things like that. You don’t leave anything nice on your porch because people will take it.”

While Clayton Heights is considered a generally safe area, Goodman said “it’s really going downhill.”

“My son is 17, but I worry about him

by press time, police were searching for the driver of a possibly stolen red 1991 Ford Lariat pickup truck which crashed into a power pole in the 3200-block of 200th Street early Thursday morning. The driver fled the scene, but police recovered a large quantity of mail stolen from communities throughout Surrey and Langley from the accident.

The recovered mail will be returned to Canada Post and redelivered.

Paquet said residents should report suspicious people, vehicles or activity in their neighbourhoods – especially in close proximity to community mailboxes.

To prevent mail theft, Paquet recommended you pick up your mail as soon as possible, ensure your mailbox is secure and contact Canada Post at 1800-267-1177 if you see any damaged or overturned mailboxes.

“There’s a lot that they can do to minimize the chances of having their mail stolen,” he said.

Anyone with information about the truck crash in Langley is asked to call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200 or CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

‘Ascent’ team member climbs for parents Sharon Arthur and others scaled Mt. Kilimanjaro to raise close to $100,000 for Alzheimer Society of B.C. SEE VIDEO AND MORE PHOTOS WITH LAYAR

Tom Zillich Now staff Twitter @tomzillich

SURREY — As she trained for many months to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro, Sharon Arthur would often crank Bon Jovi’s “It’s My Life,” which became a theme song for the Surrey resident’s charitable cause.

Earlier this month, midnight approached as she prepared to summit the mountain in Tanzania with other members of the Ascent for Alzheimer’s team.

“It felt like we could touch the stars as we were climbing,” Arthur recalled, “and the moon was bright orange – just amazing.

And five minutes out, before we reached the summit, ‘It’s My Life’ came on my iPod shuffle. It was so perfect – ‘It’s now or never,’ and I got into a zone and did it. It was so inspiring.”

Arthur, who lives in the Ocean Park area, was among eight team members who this year set out to do the Ascent for Alzheimer’s, a signature annual event for the Alzheimer Society of B.C. The team left for Africa on Sept. 25; to be part of the week-long adventure, each team member had to raise a minimum $10,000 and cover their own travel expenses.

“Doing something like this, on such a huge scale, was a first for me, and very fitting,” Arthur told the Now. “Both of my parents were diagnosed with Alzheimer’s

disease. In kind of a cruel twist of fate, they were both nurses and owned a nursing home in Abbotsford for 26 years that helped care for people who had similar health issues.”

As a teenager, Arthur remembers watching slides of a trip to Mt. Kilimanjaro by a resident of the care home.

“That was an inspiration to do this, too,” Arthur noted.

Climbing the mountain was tougher than the guide, Sue Oakey-Baker, let on, Arthur said with a laugh.

To prepare, she hired a personal trainer and often cycled, for the cardio workout.

“We did some pre-arranged hikes in the summer, including Wedgemount Lake in Whistler, which was quite grueling and pretty close to simulating (Mt. Kilimanjaro).

I think we gained more than 1,000 metres on that hike, to give us a taste of what it would be like over there.”

For Ascent for Alzheimer’s team members, the hike up Kilimanjaro is supposed to simulate the affects of the debilitating disease on the human body.

“We could climb and return, but for people who have Alzheimer’s, that’s it for them – they’re on a steady decline,” Arthur said.

She encourages people to get involved in next year’s Ascent, details of which can be found online at www.alzheimerbc.org.

“It was a life-changing experience,” Arthur said.

At the top of the mountain, she left a little silver box filled with letters she and her sister wrote to their parents.

“It was a full-circle moment completing the climb and also remembering them.” tzillich@thenownewspaper.com

Sharon Arthur stands at the Uhuru peak of Mt. Kilimanjaro during her adventure there as part of the 2013 Ascent for Alzheimer’s team. “It was a life-changing experience,” said Arthur, who lives in the Ocean Park area of Surrey.

Kwantlen business students launch Must Stache Co. Carolyn Cooke Now staff Twitter @carolyncooke1

SURREY — Now everyone can have a mustache.

Three Kwantlen Polytechnic University business students have created a line of Tshirts with the Movember mustache symbol for their final school project. The last class of the four-year entrepreneurship program has students create actual companies and run them for six weeks.

Katrina Babbini, Jim Martens and Jaskirat Bedi launched Must Stache Co. with the goal of raising $8,300 through T-shirt sales.

Once the sales period is up, they intend part of the proceeds to prostate cancer research, whereas the rest goes to the Kwantlen Venture Fund.

The idea came through Babbini’s parttime job at a gym when she was talking with an older member who has prostate cancer.

“We got to talking about the Movember

made him smile.”

She said she liked the idea that something that symbolized a devastating disease could also be a source of happiness, so when the

time came to formulate a business idea, she and her teammates decided to run with it.

“I love the feeling, the connection, that people would feel looking at me or someone else in a T-shirt (like this),” said Bedi.

The shirts sell for $20 individually or three for $50. Shirts can also be ordered in bulk, with a base cost of $12 each and an extra dollar for customization – be it having a company name printed under the mustache or slim fit or black instead of the basic white.

Babbini said the orthodontic specialists at South Surrey Smiles have thrown their support behind their company as well as prostate cancer research, and have ordered 80 shirts.

Martens said they would love to see more of this too.

“We really want to focus on getting businesses involved,” he said. “A lot of businesses already do Movember things during November and we’d really love for them to get on board.”

To order T-shirts from Must Stache Co., people can email muststacheco@gmail.com, find them on Facebook or call Babbini at 778-889-2024. ccooke@thenownewspaper.com

Currently residing in the Ocean View Care Home in the city by the sea, Hazel’s story began in Vancouver, where she was born on Nov. 3, 1913.

Later in life, Hazel graduated as a registered nurse from Edmonton’s Royal Alexandra Hospital in 1939 and married George Andrew on Sept. 30, 1941. The couple raised one son, Billy Andrew.

When asked how she feels to be approaching her 100th birthday, Hazel said, “It just happens. Hours go by, and it just happens.

“People have made a bit of a fuss about it,” she said, with rosy red cheeks and a seemingly permanent smile.

Hazel enjoys many activities, such as camping, horseback riding, baking and fishing. And her family says she’s always had that great sense of humour.

“Well that’s good to report,” she said, still smiling.

When told she would be getting a letter

Hazel Winnifred Andrew celebrates her 100th birthday on Sunday, Nov. 3 with family and friends. from the Queen for her 100th birthday, Hazel’s eyes lit up.

“Oh my, that’s very considerate of her, because she has a very heavy schedule,” she said.

Hazel’s family is celebrating her birthday with her on Nov. 3.

Her eyes lit up again when she was told the festivities would include the song “When Irish Eyes are Smiling,” which topped the charts the year of her birth.

“I like that song very much,” she said.

7 Top Tips to "Doing Lunch" easy to manage.

If both of you enjoy sushi, consider going to a Japanese restaurant.

Sushi is a great business lunch food since it's served up in handy bite-sized pieces. Avoid anything complicated or messy -- unless you plan on bonding over trying to figure out how to crack those crab legs.

1. Lunch is for connecting It's not about getting business, certainly not directly, so leave your samples and folders behind (unless your guest has specifically requested them), and it's not really about the food either.

Instead, focus on building the relationship by getting to know the other person.

Your Timing

When You Invest Regularly.

If one of your worries is whether you’re investing at the right time, it shouldn’t be. By investing a set amount of money regularly, you establish a simple routine that can help make your financial goals a reality.

In addition, investing regularly can: đƫ Make it possible to use market fluctuations to your advantage đƫ Add potential growth and diversification to your portfolio đƫ Keep your long-term financial goals in focus To learn how investing on a regular basis can help you reach your financial goals, call or visit your local Edward Jones advisor today.

Investing a set amount of money on a regular basis does not ensure a profit and does not protect against loss in declining markets. Such a plan involves continual investment in securities, regardless of fluctuating price levels of such securities. You should consider your financial ability to continue the purchases through periods of low price levels.

"Let's do lunch." How often have you heard that phrase.

And how often have you wondered if you are actually "doing lunch" correctly.

Here are seven tips for acing that business lunch.

2. Order fuss-free food No matter how much you love spaghetti, twisting noodles and slurping sauce can be distracting and a disaster especially if it ends up on your chest or lap. And of course watch your manners.

Instead, order an easyto-eat pasta dish, for example something like ravioli that's bite size and

3. How to invite someone Just suggest, "Let's have lunch." And ask them to suggest a restaurant, either one they like or one they've always wanted to try. Aim for a comfortable restaurant that fits your budget. Stay clear of fast food or noisy places.

If it's a client or prospect that you're inviting I prefer to offer to pick them up and drive them. This has saved me from being stood up more than once! But for those of you, who are speed demons like me, remember to drive conservatively. Now is not the ideal time to get pulled over for a speeding ticket.

this isn't an inquisition.

If you're not good at coming up with questions on the spot plan ahead it's also good to have a look at the newspaper headlines for some current topics to get you started. Avoid going into the gory details of your own life and definitely leave you personal baggage at home. Aim to be interested ...not interesting!

5. Pace yourself If you're asking you guest a lot of questions or if they're a slower eater, they might be still sitting in front of a full plate while you're finished. Try to avoid that. Pace yourself, and eat slowly. You want to finish about the same time. Then order dessert or coffee -- or both.

6. Don't drink (much) Seriously. Avoid drinking too much, even too much

water. You don't want to have to excuse yourself to go to the restroom and leave your guest twiddling his or her thumbs. And definitely watch out when it comes to alcohol.

Unless your guest orders it first, avoid it, and if you do have a drink, stop at one.

7. It's your treat Insist on that, even if your client offers to pay.

Unless there's a major reason -- the client's company has a policy that prohibits that their employees are treated for meals, or unless there are other obvious reasons, pay for the meal. For discretion use a credit card.

And here's a bonus tip: leave your cell phone in your pocket or purse and turn it to silent or off.

4. Be curious... Ask lots of questions This lunch is not about you. Your goal is to get to know the other person, so get curious and ask lots of questions. But keep them conversational

PANORAMA RIDGE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The change in Edward was astounding.

Edward Parker had trouble at school, was clumsy and struggled to read early on. Initially he was diagnosed as having mild autism, but after a referral to Dr. Sandy Johal of Panorama Optometry, the Vancouver boy discovered at age seven that the real problem was his vision. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Before vision therapy, his eyes were not aligned,â&#x20AC;? said Johal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What we would see is that one of the eyes would actually turn out and he would have double vision.â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s apparently a fairly common problem, she said, but with vision therapy to train his eye muscles, his mom Renee noticed dramatic improvement in just a matter of weeks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve noticed Edward improving in other areas, you know, like the art that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really stepped up,â&#x20AC;? said his mom.

Now that Edward is 10, he has

Dr. Sandy Johal of Panorama Optometry checks Edward Parkerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vision. His eye condition was misdiagnosed as mild autism until he was referred to Johal and underwent vision therapy for a neuro-musclar problem. (Photo: JACOB ZINN) discovered a love of books. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love reading,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am now a very good goalie when it comes to hockey and soccer.â&#x20AC;?

October is Eye Health Month and Johal and other optometrists want people to know how important it is to have childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vision checked thoroughly. The general recommendation is that kids are checked at six months of age, have one exam between two and five years old and then yearly after that. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I personally think six months of age and yearly after that,â&#x20AC;? said Johal.

She said the earlier a condition is

caught, the better the prognosis, and since childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eyes change so much in the first few years, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best to check more often than not.

Most vision problems have no obvious symptoms, said Johal, and some eye diseases only show symptoms when it is too late. Too many parents wrongly believe they would know if there was an issue needing treatment.

She also cautions against buying eyewear online. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was a study that found almost half of eyewear ordered online failed at least one parameter of ocular or impact testing.â&#x20AC;?

Hippie Mike sets up shop in Surrey Jacob Zinn Now contributor Twitter @jacobzinn

WHALLEY — Local skateboarding legend Hippie Mike – real name Mike Faux – has had a deck under his feet for more than three decades, but he’s just now breaking ground with his longtime dream of opening his own skate shop.

Faux is set to open Authentic Board Supply, an independent skateboard shop, at the Dell Shopping Centre in the heart of Whalley, on Friday, Nov. 1. ABS will join the local skate shop scene alongside the likes of Coastal Riders in Guildford, Ollie North in Cloverdale and Pura Vida Skateboards and Apparel in South Surrey.

Recently, the other skate shop that has been in Surrey for a long time moved to Langley.

The shop is three blocks away from Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre, home to one of Faux’s personal top three skateparks in the Lower Mainland. While Faux could have set up shop anywhere in the city, he picked Whalley for a number of reasons, the top being the local kids who’ve benefitted from his work as a skateboard instructor and youth worker for the City of Surrey over the last 10 years.

“I’ve made a lot of relationships with a lot of certain kids and skateboarders in general – they just want someone to have a conversation with that they can relate to,” he said. “Those kids can still feel free to come by and hang out.”

He added, “Recently, the other skate shop that has been in Surrey for a long time moved to Langley, so there wasn’t really many opportunities for the kids to go to a skate shop anymore. I wanted to try to be as

“Hippie Mike” Faux 5-0s the lip of the shallow bowl at the nearby Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre. After 10 years of thinking about starting his own independent skate shop, “Hippie Mike” Faux is opening Authentic Board Supply in the Dell Shopping Centre in Whalley on the first weekend of November. (Photo: JACOB ZINN) close to this skate park as possible.”

Faux has put his work with the city on hold so he can dedicate his time to opening his shop, but he’s assured that once things are up and running, he will still organize skateboard camps and competitions.

ABS will sell typical skateboard fare – decks, trucks, griptape, wheels, stickers, curb wax and clothing – across most major brands, as well as Faux’s Protest Skateboards company.

In addition, ABS has sponsored a team of six local skateboarders handpicked by Faux to promote the brand at skateboard demos, but Faux’s not saying who they are just yet.

“Nobody knows who those people are except me.”

Faux hopes that his shop will further his pursuit to make skateboarding accessible to everybody, stressing the importance of the sport as a creative outlet in contrast to traditional team sports.

“People always look at skateboarders as kids and they look at the older guys and they go, ‘Why do you skateboard? You’re 30 years old, you’re 40 years old,’” he said. “They don’t understand that part, that this is your soul. That’s how you express your true self.

“Every person that skateboards skates differently, and nobody can tell them that what they’re doing is wrong.”

ABS will be at 10604 King George Blvd.

Surrey to host women’s fastpitch world tourney #HFOI SEE BID PRESENTATION VIDEO

friday, December 6, 7:00PM Tickets At

Or Call 1-855-985-5000 LangleyEvents

SURREY — The 2016 Women’s World Fastpitch Championships are set to be held in Surrey, making it the first world championship softball event for the city.

Following the 18-month development of Surrey’s bid for the illustrious contest, the International Softball Federation (ISF) awarded the bid to Surrey during the ISF congress in Cartagena, Colombia.

“We believe international sport competition brings with it the spirit of peace and friendship,” said Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts in a statement. “Additionally, securing an event of this magnitude is strongly aligned with our sport tourism strategy and economic action plan.”

The championships will bring the world’s best fastpitch athletes from more than 30 countries to Surrey and will require 400 volunteers.

For the past few years, the city has hosted the Scotiabank Canadian Open Fastpitch International Championship, showcasing Softball City and other local athletic parks as suitable locations for top athletic competition. Before that, Surrey hosted international fastpitch with an annual Canada Cup tournament.

Coun. Tom Gill, who chairs the city’s finance committee, added in a statement, “We continue to look for ways to utilize Surrey’s world-class facilities to bring economic generation to our city. It’s incredibly important that the facilities we are building for the use of our residents are also being leveraged to host events of this scale, which bring significant investment into our city.

“The strategic investments made under the Build Surrey program allow the city to enter the world’s stage for sport hosting – winning this event is a springboard in making that vision a reality.”

The 10-day sporting event will tentatively be held between July 15 and 24, 2016, and is expected to coincide with the ninth annual Fusion Festival.

Presenting 7 awards for Youth Achievement

Norm Rinne

Friday, November 1, 2013

Senior Director, Business Development Kinder Morgan Canada

Bell Performing Arts Centre, Surrey

Kinder Morgan Canada is proposing an expansion of its existing 1,150-kilometre Trans Mountain Pipeline, which runs from Strathcona County (near Edmonton) to Burnaby, BC. If approved, the proposed $5.4 billion project would increase the capacity of the pipeline that transports a variety of energy products for local and international markets.

Doors open 7pm l Award Show 8pm

The proposed twinning of the existing pipeline, in operation since 1953, offers a wide range of bene¿ts including new jobs, procurement opportunities and other positive spinoffs for BC and Alberta communities – during the twoyear construction phase and long-term operations.

The Trans Mountain team is committed to creating local economic opportunities along the construction right-of-way. Norm Rinne will describe the various stages and types of jobs, procurement possibilities, and local workforce spending involved in building a pipeline. The presentation will include a progress report on the proposed project and how businesses in the Surrey area can prepare to participate in the project.
