SPCA: Felines at full capacity Owners wanting to surrender their cats are put on wait list Black Press THE BC SPCA’S Surrey branch is just one of 10 shelters that has been forced to

turn away and create waiting lists for owners surrendering cats and kittens. “We are absolutely chockablock full,� Surrey branch manager Valerie Sigler said. “We have over 100 kittens right now.�

While Sigler said the branch would never turn away an owner in a real bind, staff are having to explore other housing alternatives – such as finding new homes privately – before taking in additional cats and kittens. “We are full, full, full to capacity,� she said, noting owners are also being put on a waiting list until space becomes available.

Surrey isn’t the only SPCA location faced with the problem.

Shelters in Vancouver, Burnaby, Chilliwack, Maple Ridge, Dawson Creek, Kamloops, Prince Rupert, Williams Lake and Quesnel are also struggling to handle the number of cats and kittens that are coming in. “We’re doing our best but we’re absolutely over capacity right now,� said Ryan Voutilainen, manager of the BC SCPA’s Vancouver branch. “The welfare of the cats and kittens we already have in our care is our first priority, so unfortunately at this time, we can’t accommodate cats who are being surrendered.�

The non-profit society currently has 3,100 cats and kittens in its network of shelters and foster homes. “Now is the height of kitten season, which is our busiest time of year,� said Mark Takhar, BC SPCA assistant general manager of operations.

Green-eyed Tess is just one of many cats – as well as kittens – available at the Surrey SPCA shelter.

Going the distance Surrey man swims, bikes and runs for Surrey charity

by Dan Ferguson FIRST, 51-YEAR-OLD Cloverdale resident Will Rogers swam 22 kilometres from Sturdies Bay on Galiano Island to the Tsawwassen ferry terminal in Delta .

He says the July 3 swim went well, except for the harbour seals that nibbled on his toes and the boat that nearly cut him in half as he neared the finish line.

Rogers, a father of three and grandfather of five, even shaved 25 minutes off his previous time.

Then, he followed up the swim with a 500-kilometre bicycle ride from Victoria to Penticton on July 17-18.

Next up is a run, on foot, along the same route starting Aug. 10.

It’s all a fundraiser for the Surrey-based Servants Anonymous Society (SAS), a charity that works to rehabilitate sex trade workers.

It’s the third “Million Dollar Journey� by Rogers.

Last year, he raised $10,000. So far this year, he’s raised $2,500.

Cop dog healing after pit bull attack Atos the German shepherd nearly died in the line of duty

EVAN SEAL / THE LEADER

Surrey RCMP Const. Todd Abram with police service dog Atos.

three days ago, Atos looked remarkably healthy as he jumped from his seat in the back of a police SUV Wednesday afternoon at the Surrey RCMP headquarters, his tail wagging.

A big patch of fur on the lower right side of the big dog’s neck had been shaved off by the vet who stitched the ragged wound and inserted a yellow drainage tube after a pit bull attacked the seven-year-old German shepherd during a routine drug search early Monday morning.

It happened around 3 a.m. during a roadside search of an SUV the 13400 block of 81 Avenue.

RCMP Const. Todd Abram and Atos were inside the suspect vehicle when an off-leash pit bull ran from the corner of the intersection and leaped into the vehicle where it attacked Atos, sinking its teeth into the police dog’s neck.

Abram said Atos tried to fight back, but he was hampered by the harness he wears and the fact his human partner was trying to drag him away.

Lorne Pearson was renowned for his sharp memory

A FORMER Surrey deputy fire chief and recently named “Civic Treasure” has died.

Lorne Pearson, also a longtime volunteer with the Surrey Archives, passed away Sunday in the company of his family at Peace Arch Hospital. He was 77.

Pearson lived in Surrey since the 1940s, when the population was just 20,000, and was hired as firefighter No. 8 in 1957. Boasting an incredible memory, he was a treasure trove of historical information, making him a natural fit for the Surrey Archives in the 1990s.

His recollections were so sharp, archivists often turned to him to help identify people in photos, many of them whom he knew.

“That’s the most gratifying part of the whole thing – to relive the early days and see what your comrades were like and how you worked together,” he told The Leader in an interview two years ago.

pepper spray to get the pit bull to let go.

The veterinarian who operated on Atos said the German shepherd was within seconds of dying because the pit bull’s teeth were clamped just a fraction of an inch away from his jugular vein.

Abram said the owner of the pit bull did not try to separate the two dogs when they were fighting and allowed the dog to continue running loose after the incident.

“It was... very frustrating,” Abram said, pausing to choose his words carefully.

He said Wednesday was the first day Atos appeared to be back his old self, after several days of low energy. Abram is optimistic Atos will be fully recovered and back to work in a matter of weeks, once the wound on his neck is healed well enough to allow the use of his chest harness.

As for the pit bull, it remains in the possession of its owner. Animal control officers have been called in to investigate the incident. An application to have the pit bull declared a dangerous dog is expected, something that would require it to be penned, and leashed with a muzzle while outside the pen. A City of Surrey bylaw sets a fine of $50 to $2,000 for allowing a dog to “run at large.”

The pit bull owner is also likely to face a bill for the approximately $1,000 it cost to get Atos stitched up.

A week ago Tuesday, Pearson attended the Surrey retired firefighters’ lunch where he received an award from the B.C. Fire Chiefs for his time as a member of the Fire Chiefs Association.

His son John said his dad had his game face on for the full fivehour event.

As secretary of the retired firefighters, he said “somebody’s

The next day, suffering from exhaustion, he was admitted to hospital. He passed away on Sunday at about 1 p.m.

Pearson is survived by his wife Irene, his sons John and Jim, his sister Susie and four grandchildren.

From page 1 “We’re asking people to be patient until space becomes available.”

Takhar said most owners are understanding when told that many shelters are not accepting surrendered cats.

“They know they are ultimately responsible for their animal and in most situations could have done something to prevent having to give it up – for example, spaying and neutering would have prevented an unwanted litter.”

As much as it’s a busy time of year for SPCA staff, Takhar said it’s a good opportunity for animal lovers to adopt a cat or kitten.

“We have cats and kittens of every colour, size, age, breed and personality.”

SPCA adoption fees vary by region, but all include spay/neuter and vaccinations.

RE: “TYNEHEAD trail under fire,”

The Leader, July 13.

As an avid equestrian and longtime park user, I agree with the Tynehead Community Equestrian Society’s (TCES) view on the plans for the new trail. Creating a fourmetre wide paved path through the park defeats the purpose of a nature trail and would leave the park user with a less-satisfying experience.

I strongly believe that Metro Vancouver should review its options and revise some of the plans for the park. Just because Metro Vancouver has not heard any opposition, does not mean it is nonexistent. Previous to this article, I had heard brief mentions of this proposed development of the park. However, I feel that it was kept rather quiet and received little publicity.

Most parks in Surrey use crushed stone. Many cyclists enjoy these trails and this surface is not difficult to ride upon. Perhaps an asphalt surface may make it easier for persons relying on a wheelchair to navigate the trails, however, if this is the case, the width of the trail plan certainly needs to be reduced. Instead, a trail ranging up to two metres should be more than adequate.

As for the TCES proposal of restoring equestrian use to the trails, I think this is an excellent idea. Perhaps Tynehead could create a concept like that of Campbell Valley Park or Golden Ears Park, with separate pedestrian and equestrian trails. The Highpoint development in South Langley also contains a multi-user trail, where both riders and people on foot peacefully coexist along the 10-km path.

If the park were to be fully encircled with this planned fourmetre roadway, I would find a different place to walk. I come to Tynehead to enjoy the trees, lush fields and serenity. An asphalt road running through these areas would destroy the essence of the park.

It is very easy to pave over the landscape, however, it takes a lengthy time to grow a tree or recover a salmon spawning habitat.

rey council to change our unfair taxation system will again only be again a half measure as to the real problem Surrey is facing and what really needs to be done.

Taxing homeowners with one legal suite for “utilities, garbage pick up and things like that” again fails to include general taxes, school taxes, TransLink, drainage parcel tax and some others, which make up the bulk of our tax bills.

Why should those living in suites and sending kids to school not have to pay for the above services

now paid for others?

Why should those no longer going to school, never went to school or never had children still have to pay school taxes at all?

The restriction recommendation for one secondary suite per singlefamily dwelling in the city can never be enforced unless reported by angry neighbours, and at present, Surrey has no record of those now illegal suites.

And how can they still call it a single-family dwelling when there are more than one family living in it?

As to “the building owner must reside on the premises,” should those owning more than one home be forced to evict those living in related suites?

Further, how is Surrey going to have the owner of the home provide off-street parking?

Does that mean all homeowners with one suite now have to pave or gravel part of their property to provide extra parking for all those cars presently on the street?

Why do city taxpayers have to pay for those inspections, which should have be done to start with

for those who built and/or added all those illegal suites?

As for angry homeowners storming city hall in the 1970s, that was done only by those who built their huge houses with one or more illegal suites to generate extra income to pay the mortgage for a home they really did not need.

Again, others are on the hook for those who violate existing laws and bylaws or reuse to pay their fair share of taxes.

Options for those waiting AFTER READING the article “Three years of pain or payment up front,” (July 23) about a patient waiting three years for surgery at St. Paul’s Hospital to correct a sinus infection, I wanted to clarify how these situations are assessed and managed.

Dr. Javer, the St. Paul’s specialist mentioned in the article, is a highly skilled surgeon with an excellent reputation, and I can understand why patients wish to be referred to him. Surgical patients are prioritized by their physicians based on the seriousness of their cases. Dr. Javer sees his most urgent cases in three to six months.

Those whose procedures are considered elective unfortunately face a much longer wait.

Although Dr. Javer has a heavy caseload, we have worked with him and the Ministry of Health Services to improve this situation. We have increased the operating room time available to him and recruited another highly skilled sino-nasal specialist, which has helped to reduce the wait list.

It is important to note that there are other highly qualified ear, nose and throat (ENT) specialists in the public health care system that could also do the procedure in question, if the patient wished to be referred to them. This is always an option for patients who wish speedier treatment.

A letter writer says that Bonnie Shortreed (above), who has been told she has to wait years for specialized surgery, has the option of seeing other doctors in the public health system.

Long forms take the guesswork out STEPHEN HARPER and the Con-

servative party are wrong to want to eliminate the compulsory longform part of Canada’s census.

The Conservatives want to replace the current system, where every five years 20 per cent of Canadians are randomly chosen to complete the long form, with a voluntary long form for up to 33 per cent.

Any statistician will tell you using a voluntary form for accurate statistical research is pure folly.

The fact that Munir Sheikh, chief statistician of Statistics Canada, and a highly respected civil servant for 30 years, has resigned over the issue speaks to the level of political

interference in what is supposed to be a non-partisan branch of our government.

Here in Surrey, we continue to have one of the fastest-growing cities in Canada. We have a wide ethnic diversity, perhaps matched only by Vancouver and Toronto.

And Surrey is home to a socioeconomic range which includes both the wealthiest and the poorest Canadians.

We need to be able to know the facts as they are, not just a guess from those willing to fill out the longer form.

Other levels of government rely on StatsCan information to make important decisions about public

and private transportation, schools, police and fire services, social programs, immigrants services, libraries, parks, and recreation.

Businesses, charities and educators will all use this information to decide where to expand, whether to relocate, or maintain the status quo.

New businesses in our community use StatsCan to project location, product and client base.

Home builders, who are a large part of the economic growth in Surrey, use the data to determine the type of housing needed and location.

The Conservatives’ claim that Canadians are concerned about

privacy is a smokescreen. StatsCan has a world-renowned reputation, developed over generations, for providing meaningful statistical information from its census while maintaining the privacy of individual Canadians.

If the compulsory long-form is eliminated, Stephen Harper’s Conservatives would base their political decisions on their partisan agenda rather than statistics and facts.

This is yet another example of Stephen Harper’s Conservatives putting their ideology before good government.

by Jeff Nagel SERIAL KILLER Robert “Willie” Pickton was charged with attempting to murder one sex-trade worker who escaped from his Port Coquitlam farm after a bloody knife fight in 1997 that left both of them barely alive.

Despite the police investigation amidst a string of drug-addicted women vanishing from Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside, the case against him was dropped and 20 more women would disappear in the following years that he would eventually be charged with killing.

That’s among a deluge of new revelations that are now being reported after the lifting of a publication ban following the Supreme Court of Canada’s decision to uphold Pickton’s conviction and life sentence on six counts of seconddegree murder.

The identity of the woman who got away cannot be reported.

She testified at Pickton’s preliminary hearing that she fought back after he attempted to handcuff her and, in the struggle, she grabbed a butcher knife off a table and slit his throat.

He wrestled back the knife and stabbed her a number of times, piercing her lung.

The woman got away and was picked up by a passing car.

The jury never heard about the incident because the trial judge ruled it had no direct bearing on the murders,

Pickton acted alone but Police had seized defence lawyers had

sought to raise doubt among jurors that others might be responsible.

Bone fragments, blood and DNA were found in an extensive search of the farm.

Nobody else has ever been charged.

Although Pickton was originally charged with killing 27 women, one count involving an unidentified woman whose remains had been found in the Mission area was excluded and 20 additional counts were split off to be dealt with in a separate trial, if one proved necessary.

One reason for splitting the trial in that manner, according to media reports, is that defence lawyers only conceded six of the women were actually dead and had insisted the Crown would have to prove the remaining victims weren’t alive somewhere else.

Prosecutors formally stayed the remaining 20 charges against Pickton Wednesday, saying nothing further would be gained by a new trial on those counts.

Pickton, 60, has already been sentenced to serve the maximum 25 years before he becomes eligible for parole.

Family members of missing women have renewed their calls for a public inquiry into the police handling of the Pickton case.

Vancouver Police issued a new apology last week for not catching Pickton sooner.

Firefighting hacky sackers Cougar Canyon blazes deemed suspicious

by Dan Ferguson THEY WAGED their

fight to control the fires armed with little more than the contents of some water coolers and a wet t-shirt.

When some suspicious fires broke out in North Delta’s Cougar Canyon on Wednesday, July 28 a group of

hacky sackers and beer league baseball players responded.

Their improvised counterattack was enough to keep the fires from spreading before the Delta Fire Department arrived to put them out.

North Delta resident Matthew Bossons and his friend Mark Nasu

were playing hacky sack in the field near Seaquam Secondary School in the 11500 block of Lyon Road around 8:30 p.m. when they noticed plumes of dark grey smoke rising from the forested canyon across the road.

The smoke got worse and worse, so Bossons and Nasu went to inves-

tigate, along with some baseball players who were having a game in the same field.

They found a smouldering mound at the base of a cedar tree and doused it with a mixture of ice and water from their coolers.

At first, they thought the fire was accidental, Bossons said.

Then they spotted the second fire, about 25 feet away.

The barefoot Bossons phoned the fire department while Nasu wetted his t-shirt and used it to

attack the fire.

The Delta Fire Department and police responded and swept the area.

Investigators have told Bossons the twin fires were suspicious.

“Two fires don’t

No one was hurt, he said, but his buddy’s t-shirt is a total writeoff.

Boden will remain in custody until his next court appearance, which is set for Aug. 27.

He was arrested and charged on July 24, just days after the Crown prosecutor’s office dropped an earlier charge of breaking and entering against 24-year-old Boden, once considered a top professional football prospect. The incident that produced the break-in charge occurred in Burnaby at the home of Boden’s girlfriend in early July.

His performance won him an invitation to the B.C. Lions training camp the same year. In 2007, Boden made the Lions roster as a backup wide receiver.

Boden was released by the west coast CFL team after he was charged with domestic assault and robbery in April, 2008. The charges were dropped a few months later.

RCMP wants your best shot Accepting photos for annual diversity calendar Black Press WHETHER photography

is your passion, your hobby, or just an occasional pastime, Surrey RCMP invites you to participate in its 2011 Diversity Calendar photo contest to celebrate multiculturalism and the unique character of Surrey communities.

“Diversity – The Surrey RCMP and Community!” is the theme for the 2011 Surrey RCMP Diversity Calendar. The calendar committee is now accepting photos that illustrate this theme.

Surrey RCMP takes part throughout the year in community festivals, New Year celebrations of various communities, sporting events, the Canada Day celebration, and Surrey’s very own Fusion Festival, so there is plenty of inspiration.

Participation is free and a number of prizes will be awarded. Surrey RCMP Diversity will select a maximum of 10 of the best photos from all entries and every winning photograph

will receive a $150 prize.

There will also be a final draw for $300 in which all the contestants will be eligible to enter.

Participants will also receive a free copy of the 2011 Diversity Calendar. Prizes are sponsored by the Royal Bank of Canada’s Cultural and Community Markets Division.

Winning photos will also appear in Surrey RCMP’s 2011 Diversity Calendar and the calendar will be available free of charge to Surrey residents and businesses upon request.

If you have a that captures Surrey’s diversity, multicultural community and Surrey RCMP’s community engagement, make sure to submit it to the contest by the Aug. 30 deadline.

For more information, visit www.surrey. rcmp.ca or call the Surrey RCMP’s Diversity Section at 604599-7814. Or e-mail: madhavee.inamdar@ rcmp-grc.gc.ca

The RCMP is seeking photos that celebrate diversity.

RCMP Insp. Bob Couture, who came from a military background and worked at the Calgary Police Service, jumped at the chance to continue his career in Surrey after he worked in the Olympic security detail.

EVAN SEAL / THE LEADER

Adapting to change New Surrey RCMP inspector happy to be ‘living the dream’ in B.C.

by Dan Ferguson RECENTLY, SURREY RCMP Insp. Bob

Couture was being interviewed in a meeting room at the main detachment building on 57 Avenue.

“Change is around us all the time and that’s what keeps you moving forward,” said Couture, the detachment’s new Operations Support Officer.

“We have to have the ability to adapt to change.”

He was making a point about policing a rapidly growing, fast-changing community like Surrey.

But he could have just as easily been talking about himself.

Couture grew up as one of six kids in a house on the west side of Calgary, another city known for mushrooming populations and dramatic surges of development.

In less than one lifetime, the neighbourhood where he used to live has been through a complete cycle of growth, decline and renewal.

Under those circumstances, Couture said, change “becomes part of your culture.”

He followed his father into a career with the military, where, by any measure, Couture had an outstanding career.

The awards tell the story: Canadian Forces Search & Rescue Technician Wing, United Nations Medal for Service in Cyprus and Canadian Forces Parachutists Wing, to name a few.

On search and rescue missions, he would sometimes fly into B.C., where he fell in love with the West Coast. Someday, he knew, he would live here.

But first, he needed to settle down, to give his children a chance to grow up without the base-jumping of a military family.

So he went home.

He left the military after 15 years and became a Calgary Police officer.

Some of his awards from 22 years of policing include ones for merit and distinguished service.

A few years ago, he was offered a chance to work on Olympic Security at the Vancouver-Whislter Olympic Games.

“I jumped at the opportunity to come out to the coast and live and work in Vancouver,” he said.

Then came an offer of work at the largest RCMP detachment in Canada – Surrey.

“I’m just ecstatic that I’m out here living the dream.”

He lives here with his wife Judy.

At the time of the interview, Couture had been on the job just a few weeks.

His responsibilities include anti-gang enforcement, traffic, youth and auxiliary police matters.

He is a great believer in street-level policing, something he intends to practise as much possible.

“I want to go out there,” Couture said.

His task, as he sees it, is to learn as much as he can about the city and the officers he works with.

“I’m just a cop that wants to do the best for his community,” he said.

The officer in charge of the Surrey detachment, Chief Supt. Fraser MacRae, is happy to have Couture on board.

two men and a teenage girl in connection with two murders that occurred within five days of each other in March, 2009.

Roy Michael Thielen, 30, and Robert David Bradshaw, 26, were arrested on July 30 and charged with first-degree murder of Marc Bontkes, 33, and 36-year-old Laura Lynn Lamoureux.

Thielen and Bradshaw are also charged with conspiring to kill Bontkes.

A 19-year-old woman has been charged with first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder in connection with Bontkes’ death.

She cannot be named as she was 17 years old at the time of the crimes. She turned 18 one week after Bontkes’ murder.

Both Lamoureux and Bontkes lived in Langley.

The three accused have lived in several communities in the Lower Mainland.

Thielen was arrested Abbotsford, Bradshaw in Surrey, and the teenager in Langley.

The body of Lamoureux was discovered at 5 a.m. on March 14, 2009 in the 20200 block of 50 Avenue. Residents reported hearing gunfire early that morning.

Her body was discovered on the road.

Five days later, at 6 a.m. on March 19, Bontkes’ body was discovered on the ground of a parking lot five blocks away in Hi-Knoll Park, on 50 Avenue on the Langley City/Surrey border. Again, police were called after residents heard gunshots.

Supt. Dan Malo, head of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT), said that police identified suspects early in their investigation.

Last November, nine months after the kill-

ings, police launched Project E-PUGIL, a covert operation which used surveillance and listening devices and used the resources of several police agencies.

Malo said that IHIT presented volumes of legal paperwork to support their case to the Crown, including more than 300 pages to back the use of listening devices.

“The homicides are linked to street-level drug trade,” Malo said, adding that the three accused were closely associated. Their victims were singled out.

Tim Bontkes, Marc’s younger brother, called the news of the arrests “bittersweet.” Fighting back tears, he talked of how his brother was drawn into the drug trade.

The two brothers hung around with the same crowd, “but he (Marc) couldn’t stop.

He was always a very dynamic person, a little

Tim Bontkes spoke of the prevalence of drugs in the community, and the “bigger problem” that escalates to threats from dealers when debts are not paid.

“It’s a nasty cycle,” he said.

Marc Bontkes was married and had a young child, and despite his involvement with drugs “he was still very committed to his family,” his brother said.

Referring to the arrests, Tim Bontkes said: “Justice has run its course and three people have been arrested and charged, and we couldn’t ask for more.”

man drowned Monday while swimming at Alouette Lake in Maple Ridge.

The teen became separated from three friends while swimming at the public beach around 6:12 p.m.

Ridge Meadows RCMP Supt. Dave Walsh said the friends called police after searching for the man for an hour.

Ridge Meadows Search and Rescue was called and began looking for him along trails and in the lake.

An hour and 15 minutes into the search, a man was found under the surface of the lake, near the public swimming area.

He was pronounced dead at the scene.

“His tragic death is a reminder that we must all remain vigilant when it comes to safety in the water,” said Walsh.

B.C. Coroners Services and Ridge Meadows RCMP are investigating the death.

Police are reminding swimmers to wear a personal flotation device, always swim with a friend and take a basic CPR course.

“You never know when it could be you saving a life someday,” Walsh added.

A new battle for Burns Bog Delta mayor wants more authority over protected area

by Dan Ferguson SHORTLY AFTER the deal to preserve Burns Bog was done, the Metro Vancouver regional district parks department proposed opening up the delicate peat bog to public access.

It was just a few months after the historic 2004 covenant reached between between the municipality of Delta, the regional district, provincial and federal governments to preserve the unique ecology of the bog.

Some parks planners wanted to build boardwalks and parking lots, Mayor Lois Jackson recalls.

“They were wanting to take all these people in for tours,” Jackson says.

“It was quite concerning to me that people didn’t know what the covenant was about.”

It was about ecologiLois Jackson cal preservation and scientific research, not public use, Jackson says.

The bog is fragile, she points out.

Its plants don’t recover well from being trampled, and trespassers have in the past triggered fires that burn deep in the peat moss and cause massive damage.

The boardwalk idea died a welldeserved death after the municipality objected, Jackson says.

The battle over public access to the park has not been reported until now.

A bald eagle perches in a treen in Burns Bog, an environmentally sensitive area in North Delta.

Jackson disclosed the closed-door fight during an interview with The Leader about the municipal demand for more of a say in the management of the bog.

The near-miss proves the need for more oversight, Jackson says.

More recently, the municipality and parks planners clashed over a bid to have the bog made a so-called “Ramsar” site.

Under a 1971 international agreement

The

signed in Ramsar, Iran, ecologically sensitive wetlands can be granted international protection.

A great idea, Jackson says, except that the application by the planners only covered the 2,000 hectares of Burns Bog purchased in the 2004.

And Delta and the other levels of government want to add another 435 hectares.

The municipality convinced Metro to delay the Ramsar application until the added land was acquired.

Jackson says the municipality is committed to obtaining Ramsar status.

There are other management issues that need to be resolved, Jackson says.

Research data from the bog is not being shared with Delta, Jackson complains.

“It’s just being housed in Metro.”

She is pressing for an annual meeting of the municipality and the other levels of government to set priorities for the bog.

“We have to have a better and stronger process to share information at all four levels.”

As it stands now, Jackson says, the management of Burns Bog is largely in the hands of well-meaning managers in the Metro Vancouver parks department who operate without significant input from the elected representatives of the taxpayers who paid to buy the bog.

“In the absence of another champion, we [Delta] will have to be the champions.”

its promise to construct a residential drop-off facility for local recycling.

The city will create an “EcoCentre” whether Metro Vancouver plans on it or not.

For years, Metro Vancouver has promised Surrey a residential drop-off (RDO) centre to be located somewhere in the south end of the city.

Following the original agreement, Metro Vancouver staff wanted to make it a larger EcoCentre – a one-stop shop for all recyclables.

The latest draft of Metro Vancouver’s Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan stated that the

An artist rendering of a residential drop-off centre. region should “establish the first Eco-Centre in Surrey to replace the commitment for residential drop off facility in 1995.”

Studies show that the rate of recycling is higher when there’s a convenient location for residents.

But the idea sparked the ire of Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan at last month’s Metro waste committee meeting.

“I can’t see what they (Surrey) did to get such a magnanimous offer,” Corrigan said. “It makes absolutely no sense to anyone but Surrey.”

Coun. Linda Hepner said this city is holding Metro to its promise of an RDO, and will turn that facility into an Eco-Centre whether the region decides to support one or not.

An Eco-Centre is included in the city’s Build Surrey program for investments over the short term.

city to get it started.

Steele said Tuesday foundation money could be used for education, heritage rail and also a planned performing arts centre in North Surrey, which will have a museum component to it.

The recommendation for a foundation comes after five months of meetings by focus groups, which included people in the fields of heritage, agriculture, planning and natural areas.

The call for a heritage foundation started last year after the loss of several important historical buildings in Surrey, including the demolition of the Henry Parr and Martha Currie homes.

Financial models for heritage foundations include flow-through (money in, money out), fundraising, hybrid (includes the first two) and a dedicated heritage fund. Each has advantages and disadvantages.

Luxton, an expert on heritage preservation, gave examples of several cities with heritage foundations.

The most likely scenario is a “made in Surrey” heritage foundation that would be a hybrid of direct city funding and fundraising.

The earliest Surrey council could consider the plan is at its next regular meeting on Sept. 13.

Built Green BC finalists announced ›› Green is good

August 5, 2010

Green building to be honoured Going green is a constant concept in today’s eco-friendly world. And to honour local builders who are focusing on building greener, more sustainable homes and communities, Built Green BC has announced the finalists for the first-ever Built Green BC awards.

In six sustainable building categories, 24 finalists were recently announced, representing a blend of houses and condominiums across Bob Deeks British Columbia.

The finalists include several local developers who have built homes and projects throughout Metro Vancouver, including Adera Devel-

Adera Development Corporation and Trillium Project Management are among the finalists for the first Built Green BC awards.

opment Corporation, Bucci Developments, Odenza Homes and Trillium Project Management (all of whom are also Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association of B.C. members).

“I was not only impressed by the quality

for Built Green BC within the Canadian Home Builders’ Association of B.C.’s Georgie Awards.

Because the Built Green program – an industry-driven initiative – has grown so much, and to recognize the leadership of its builders, CHBA B.C. has launched a stand-alone Built Green BC awards program.

“Since its introduction in B.C., the Built Green BC program has flourished,” says Bob Deeks, CHBA B.C. president and a Built Green Canada board member.

“Today there are 2,800 registered homes in B.C. which combined, save about 7,000 tonnes of greenhouse gases annually – this is the equivalent of removing 2,100 cars from B.C. roads each year.”

Winners of the Built Green BC awards will be announced at a gala dinner ceremony Sept.

17 in Vancouver. Visit www.chbabc.org for a full list of finalists.

Surrey weight lifter Parm Phangura has qualified for the 2010 Commonwealth Games in New Delhi, India in October, and is also hoping to compete at the 2011 Pan-American Games and 2012 Olympic Games.

Surrey weight lifter qualifies for 2010 Commonwealth Games

by Rick Kupchuk

T

wo years ago, Parm Phangura was seriously considering walking away from competitive weight lifting and getting on with the rest of his life.

At 28, he had already won three national championships, had earned medals at international competitions, and was employed full-time at ACM Environmental as a health and safety manager.

Recovering from an injury, married and now a father, the timing seemed right.

“I had my elbow surgically repaired, because there was some wear and tear,” said the Guildford resident, a national champion in 2002, 2003 and 2007.

“And I was wondering if I wanted to come back.”

But another goal lured him back to the gym.

“When I saw the Commonwealth Games will be in India, it was destined to be. So I put the pedal to the metal, and trained my butt off.”

“It’s extra special,” said Phangura, who It was still good enough to have him was born and raised in Quesnel “Canada ranked high enough to qualify for is my home, but my parents are from India, but a good showing by his rivals India and I haven’t been there in 22 at the Sea Festival competition could years.

said of qualifying. “My goal was just to qualify for the Commonwealth Games.

But now that I have, I’ve adjusted the goal to winning a medal. I’m a potential medalist, I’m ranked fourth, and if you’re in the top five, anyone can win.”

Phangura has set a goal of a 380 kg. total in New Delhi, one which he thinks would be good enough for a podium placing, and a goal he believes will be difficult to attain, but is still possible.

“I’ve done a 167 kg. snatch and a 205 clean and jerk in training, but on separate days,” he said.

“It’s tough to do both on the same day. You do one, and you’re tired before trying the other.”

Regardless of the result in October, Phangura will continue to lift for another two years, targeting two more major international competitions to qualify for.

He plans to compete at the Pan-Am Games in 2011 in Guadalajara, Mexico, and the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London, England.

“The goal is 2012 in London,” he said. “Then it will definitely be over.”

round robin play, the Surrey Storm ‘93 have evened their won-loss record at the Canadian Midget Girls Fastpitch Championships in Saint John, New Brunswick.

The Storm, the runner-up team at the B.C. championship tournament July 16-18 in Richmond, lost their first two games of the tournament, then reeled of four consecutive victories by a combined score of 46-0.

With a 4-2 (won-lost) record after play Wednesday, the Storm needed a fifth consecutive win Thursday (yesterday) over a winless Saint John Stingers team from New Brunswick to qualify for the playoff round this weekend.

They began the win streak Tuesday with a 16-0 romp past the Prince Edward Island Selects, a game called after just three innings on the mercy rule. The Storm scored 10 times in the bottom of the first inning, and added six more in the second. They didn’t need to bat in the third.

Yasmin Bains, Kaitlyn Cameron and Danielle Raison each had a pair of hits for the Storm, who had a total of 10 in the two innings. Cameron and Raison also collected three RBIs each, with Bains and Jamie Randal driving in two each.

The Storm then handed the Mississauga North Tigers a 9-0 setback Tuesday afternoon in another game ended on the mercy rule, this time after five innings of play.

Marina Demore pitched for Surrey, throwing a no-hitter while allowing just one walk.

She struck out 12 Tigers batters.

Demore, Jayee Afeldt and Sarah Hillsdon each went two-for-three at the plate, with Hillsdon driving in two runs and Demore scoring a pair.

The mercy-rule was put into effect again in a Storm win over the Inglis Jewellers Diamond Gators of Nova Scotia on Wednesday, as a seven-run second inning sparked the Surrey squad to a 14-0 victory.

Iris Chow was a perfect fourfor-four at the plate, with Jenna Neufeld, Sammie Olexa, Afeldt,

Jaymee Foster and Nickey Sereda collecting two hits each.

Chow and Olexa each batted in four runs, with Hillsdon crossing the plate three times.

Afeldt pitched all five innings, earning the shutout while striking out eight Nova Scotia batters, allowing just three hits and a pair of walks.

The Storm made it four consecutive wins, defeating the Winnipeg Lightning 7-0.

The four lopsided wins were a big turnaround for Surrey, losers of their first two games at the week-long tournament.

The Scarborough Rays scored the winning run in the bottom of the seventh inning, handing the Storm a 3-2 loss in the opening game of the tournament on Sunday.

Hillsdon and Afeldt each went two-for-three at the plate for Surrey.

Against the Alberta Elite on Monday, the Storm fell behind 4-0 after one inning and went on to an 8-2 defeat. Olexa was the top batter for Surrey, getting a pair of hits to drive in both runs, including one on a solo home run.

Surrey author releases a new book – on the heels of his first novel getting picked up for a movie

by Sheila Reynolds

H

e’s written nine books – three in the past year – but Greg Bauder’s latest offering about rock band The Who appears, at least initially, to be markedly different than his prior works.

In the past, the Surrey author, who has struggled with schizoaffective disorder for decades, has penned novels and short stories relating to mental health issues.

Instead, Generating Who Power for Fans: Why The Who is the Greatest Band, published by Publish America, is a comprehensive study of the trailblazing rockers.

The book took just two months to write, mostly because the subject matter is one the author knows well.

“For the last 40 years, I have played their music every single day,” says Bauder. “I know all theirr songs – I’d say 95 per cent – offf by heart.” ell-versed He’s also well-versed on the band’s past and current members, bers, its udio 21 live and studio albums, countless ntless concerts and the ind meaning behind the lyrics. erent But as different as The Who book may appear att first glance, Bauder points to a familmilte iar theme. Pete Townshend, The Who’s lead singer, wrote ia, about Quadrophenia, a boy who is mentally gling not only ill and struggling ly and friends, with his family but with his self-esteem. rote The Who By “He also wrote ich was about Pete Numbers which Townshend’s own schizophrenia and how he rough a was going through

mid-life crisis and finding out all the young bands were taking over,” Bauder offers, adding he was a fan of the band long before his own diagnosis with mental illness at age 21.

But he says he found even more meaning later in life, as much of the band’s music is about identity and themes such as relationships and morality and culture.

“One thing Pete Townshend said that always stuck with me was that rock and roll is the greatest therapy ever invented.

“Pete Townshend is one of my great heroes – him and Milton,” Bauder gushes.

In fact, the 54-year-old scribe has already written yet another book, due out before the end of the year, called Pacifying Milton. It’s a tome, he explains, about how the English poet and author “changed Western civilization more than any other person since Jesus Christ.”

It’s a book Bauder is very excited about because he’s eager to share what he views as the incredible depth of Milton’s influence.

“Up until the 20th century, he was regarded in much higher esteem than Shakespeare. He created 630 words in our language and Shakespeare only created 230,” Bauder says, listing everyday words for which Milton is deemed responsible.

Also keeping the local author aloft these days is the fact that The Temptress Ariel, his first novel, is being made into a movie by locally based Blueberry Street Films.

The screenplay chronicling the love story of two schizophrenics has been finished and after funding is secured, the film will be cast and hopefully completed by 2011.

In addition, Bauder has signed a contract to make Generating Who Power for Fans into a video documentary.

Generating Who Power for Fans: Why The Who is the Greatest Band is available for order at www.publishamerica.com sreynolds@surreyleader.com

It took only two months for Greg Bauder, a huge fan of The Who, to write a book about his favourite rock band.

SFU band tuned up for Glasgow

SFU pipers practise in Pipe Sergeant Jack Lee’s backyard in preparation for the World Bagpipe Championships next week in Scotland.

World Bagpipe Championships Aug. 14 THE SFU PIPE Band

wrapped up its practice schedule this week at Burnaby Mountain Park and headed to Glasgow, Scotland on Wednesday, where it is vying for its third straight win at the World Bagpipe Championships.

Players and instruments are “ready, tuned and on the same page,” said Pipe Sergeant Jack Lee. “We’re ready to roll,” said the leader of the six-time world champions.

The band’s first order of business in Scotland will be to pick up new kilts, with a tartan designed by the band, and head for Belfast,

Ireland, for a first-ever concert with long-time rivals Field Marshall Montgomery today (Aug. 6).

They’ll return to Scotland Aug. 7 to prepare for the championship competition on Aug. 14.

Live streaming of the championships will be available from BBC Scotland, by way of bbc. co.uk/worlds (which will also host video clips on demand, available worldwide, after the event).

Over the past weekend both the Grade 1 band and the junior Robert Malcolm Memorial band finished first during competi-

29

tions at the Seattle Scottish Highland Games in Enumclaw, Wash.

The 47-member band is made up of a core group of local players from Surrey, Delta, Vancouver, Coquitlam, Burnaby, North Vancouver, Langley, Abbotsford, and Chilliwack, along with several from the U.S. and Europe, including France, Ireland and Scotland.

A new documentary film featuring the band, Battle of the Bagpipes: A Journey to the World Pipe Band Championship, airs on CBC-TV (In B.C.) on Aug. 7 at 7 p.m. newsroom@surreyleader.com

Piping up for Windsor Castle Royal attention for Delta Police Pipe Band

Erin Cebula, Spokesperson

BRITISH ROYALTY is expected to be in attendance when the Delta Police Pipe Band plays next May at the Windsor Castle Tattoo.

The group – which has performed at various tattoos around the world, including the famous one at Edinburgh Castle in Scotland – is gaining recognition as one of the premier pipe bands around.

Band president David Trotter said it is a feather in the cap for the Delta group to be included in the Windsor Castle event because it is a relatively new one and Queen Elizabeth II is expected to be in the audience for one of the shows that run May 11-15, 2011.

The original meaning of military tattoo is a military drum performance, but nowadays it sometimes

means army displays more generally.

It dates from the 17th century.

“Going to Windsor Castle also inspires our members, showing them that if they work hard and put everything into their performance we get invited to these types of events,” Trotter said.

The invite came as a result of the band’s trip aboard to play at the Basel Tattoo in Switzerland in 2009.

The group came to the attention of organizers of the Windsor event who were on hand and the invite was extended.

Trotter said that type of recognition is not always based on how perfect a band plays. It also takes into account how well organized and prompt an assembly of 40 to 50 band members are when trying to produce a tattoo involving numerous groups. editor@southdeltaleader.com

Head was recently elected the director of academics of the Kwantlen Student Association.

Leslie Gordon, academic award winner for the top first year GPA majoring in psychology said, “This was very meaningful to me. I have never been recognized for any type of academic achievement before. This was completely unexpected and wonderful.”

David Atkinson, Kwantlen’s president and vice chancellor, addressed the awardees and their parents or partners. In addition to congratulating the awardees, he noted that credit is also appropriate for those who have supported each of us along the way.

Joining her students was psychology faculty Jocelyn Lymburner, who said “It was wonderful to be involved in the event and to celebrate the students’ successes. She adds, “Research indicates a clear benefit for students’ academic and overall development through involvement in student clubs.”

Scrambled, poached, baked: It’s all good chefin your kitchen

CANADIANS are not consuming enough eggs.

This is a pity because eggs in sensible amounts are an excellent food.

What is a “sensible” amount? According to the Canadian Egg Marketing Agency (CEMA), it is five to six eggs per week.

Eggs are the original nature’s instant convenience food. In all cultures, they are the symbol of life and renewal. Canadian eggs are an excellent value for the money. They

Julius Pokomandy

could be less costly, but the CEMA holds the quotas and the price range in close check to guarantee predictable and profitable market conditions for the egg producers.

There have been some positive dramatic changes in the marketing of eggs.

Each retail carton has important nutritional information printed on it.

The mandatory labelling contains a table listing calories and 13 key nutrients.

Here is sample list for the most common size eggs: Large: Calories 70, Fat 5g, Sat. fat 1.5 g, Trans fat 0, Cholesterol 190, Sodium 55 mg, Protein 6 g, Medium: Calories

70, Fat 5g, Sat. fat 1.5 g, Trans fat 0, Cholesterol 175, Sodium 55 mg, Protein 6 g.

It seems evident that the large eggs are the most efficient buy.

Besides, most recipes ask for large eggs, unless otherwise noted.

This is particularly significant in baking formulas.

Cooking eggs falls under the same rules as cooking fish and seafood.

In order to be “perfect,” they should not be over-cooked and should not be cooked at very

res. The high temperatures. ghens egg protein toughens when cooked att high heat and can become rubbery.

Eggs are really a jumble of proteins.

During the s, cooking process, tart these proteins start joining togetherr and get “organized.” You can see this happening as the whites become opaque and yolks getting firm, and as scrambled eggs they gather into curds.

Remember the longer

the eggs cook, the more those proteins band together, toughen up and squeeze out the moisture leaving you with dry and rubbery eggs.

Of course one can still over-cook eggs even on low heat if they are cooked too long, but it is far less likely.

It is also a good idea to take the eggs off the heat before you think they are done. The eggs will continue cooking for a minute or so off the heat.

This week, I have three recipes for your summer cooking and baking.

Akoori (South Asian Scrambled Eggs) 1 tbsp canola oil 2/3 cup finely chopped onion 2/3 cup chopped firm tomato 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger 1 green chili, de-seeded and chopped or to taste 1/2 tsp ground cumin 1/2 tsp ground turmeric 8 eggs Salt and pepper to taste 1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley or cilantro Method: Select a large nonstick skillet, add oil and heat over medium heat. Cook the onion for about five minutes stirring frequently. Stir in the tomato, ginger, chilies, cumin and the turmeric. Cook for two minutes. Whisk the eggs in a bowl, add salt and pepper to taste.

Add the eggs to the tomatoes and add half of the chopped parsley.

Cook stirring until soft, thick curds form. Do not overcook. Serve at once garnished with the remaining chopped parsley. Approximate recipe cost for eight portions: $5.
