Hospitals aiming to save $7M

More ORs shut down for summer by Jeff Nagel HOSPITALS AROUND the Fraser

BOAZ JOSEPH / THE LEADER

The Surrey Food Bank’s Marilyn Herrmann receives an $80,000 cheque from the Cedar Club Society – Knights of Columbus 4767. The club recently sold a property and is giving away more than $1 million to 30 charities.

A doozy of a donation $80,000 for Surrey Food Bank just a fraction of Knights’ $1 million gift by Boaz Joseph MARILYN HERRMANN was a bit nervous setting up for the group photo at a Fleetwood restaurant. The executive director of the Surrey Food Bank was used to cheque presentations, but not like this one.

“I’ve never held an $80,000 cheque in my hand before,” she told a group of seven Cedar Club Society members who made the donation to the food bank on Tuesday. It was $80,184 to be exact. The food bank is one of dozens of charities to benefit from the move by the 55-member chapter of the Knights of

Columbus 4767, which operates in Surrey and Delta. Tony Upton, one of the Cedar Club’s directors, says the more than $1 million in donations was not the original plan. In fact, the bonanza for the charities has been decades in the making.

Health region are closing more operating rooms than usual this summer as a cost-cutting measure. Fraser Health spokesman Roy Thorpe confirmed the normal 25-per-cent summer reduction in OR time – because of surgeons, staff and patients booking holidays – will be 35 per cent this year. “The closures are a little bit more than would be done in a usual summer,” he said. Fraser Health still expects to perform the usual 80,000 surgeries in total in 2010, he said, by catching up on any backlog over the fall and winter. “We’re not expecting any reductions in the number of surgeries performed,” Thorpe said. “We’re hoping Roy Thorpe to gain some efficiencies by doing more or the same number of surgeries with slightly less OR time.” The health authority hopes to wring $7 million in savings this year

Wait times: Will be monitored From page 1 from the surgical budget through the combination of OR closures and other changes. Patient-focused funding is also expected to play a role, providing financial incentives to encourage hospitals to find more ways to perform day surgery, rather than keeping patients overnight. Langley Memorial Hospital is one of the hardest hit sites, losing almost half its OR time this summer. Dr. Mitra Maharaj, an ear nose and throat surgeon at Langley, said he’s concerned about the hospital running only two ORs, adding it typically drops from a normal four ORs to three during the summer. “It’s certainly going to be challenging and it’s going to be something we’re going to have to monitor closely throughout the summer,” he said. “I don’t remember the last time we ran with two operating theatres – we’ll have to see how it goes.” It’s even worse at Peace Arch Hospital, which dropped from 2.3 ORs open in June to one for July and zero in August. Thorpe said Peace Arch expects to cope through a combination of shifting any scheduled August surgeries to the fall and Dr. Mitra transferring patients to Maharaj other hospitals where necessary. Fraser Health will monitor wait times at each hospital through the summer and into the fall and add OR time where needed, Thorpe said. Emergency surgeries won’t be affected by the slowdown. Only elective and scheduled surgeries could end up getting bumped back if there’s not enough funded operating room time at a given hospital.

“It’s certainly going to be challenging.”

Summer’s afoot!

BOAZ JOSEPH / THE LEADER

A vehicle passenger tries to beat the heat while travelling in trafﬁc. After a soggy June, the Lower Mainland is in the midst of a dry hot spell. In Surrey this week, temperatures hit 29 Celsius on Wednesday and 31C on Thursday. Long-term weather forecasts indicate the sun will be shining for at least the next two weeks.

Charities: 30 will benefit from funds From page 1

Back in 1959, the newly formed club, led by founding member Nick Kray, bought a property near the Wheelhouse Pub in Cedar Hills which consisted of a small church and house on a small lot. In 1981, the club sold the property at a profit and bought a larger lot a few blocks to the east. The club’s intention was to build a seniors’ facility. It was to be a “non-denominational, low

rent, seniors’ highrise,” explains Upton. “But we could never quite get the rezoning and financing in place, so it never happened.” Instead, club members – most now in their 70s and 80s – decided to sell the property and give the money away. “The entire proceeds will be in excess of a million dollars,” Upton says. “The money will be distributed over the next 12 months to 30 charities that we’ve identified.” Among those are Covenant House, the BC Cancer Agency and the Surrey Memorial Hospital Foundation, which will be given their $93,000 cheque by next week.

“Our surgical department will be thrilled, since the money will buy some specialized surgical tools to fight tumours,” says the foundation’s Jason Howe. “We’re thrilled that the Knights of Columbus recognize the importance of providing state-of-the-art health care close to home.” Meanwhile, the Surrey Food Bank will use their money to buy a refrigerated five-tonne delivery truck, which Herrmann says will greatly help in providing nutritious but perishable food items to clients.

Josh Boden jailed on break-and-enter charges Former Surrey football star arrested in Burnaby Black Press JOSH BODEN, a 24-year-old Surrey man once considered a top

professional football prospect, has been arrested and charged with breaking and entering. The incident reportedly occurred last week in Burnaby at the home of Boden’s girlfriend. Court records show Boden was arrested without a warrant. Boden appeared in Vancouver Provincial Court on Monday, where the charge was upgraded from simple breaking and entering to one count of breaking and entering to commit a serious indictable offence. A bail hearing was scheduled for Monday, July 12. Boden, a former student at North Vancouver’s Carson Graham Secondary, had a checkered upbringing before moving from the North Shore to Surrey, where he was taken under the wing of B.C. Lions head coach Wally Buono and a handful of players, including defensive back Mark Washington and receiver Paris Jackson. Josh Boden Before he turned pro, the 6’1” Boden was a standout player for for

the South Surrey Rams of the Canadian Junior Football League. In his 2005 season with the Rams (now the Big Kahuna Rams), Boden finished the season as the B.C. Football Conference’s rookie of the year, MVP, and best special teams player. Before his rookie season with the Rams, Boden ruffled a few feathers when he declared he would not only break the league’s receiving records, but “planned on doubling them.” His performance won him an invitation to the BC 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 when his ex-girlfriend, Kimberly Hallgarth, said she couldn’t remember key details of the assault. Despite the dropping of the domestic assault charges, the Lions refused to re-sign him. Boden was picked up by the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, but cut after one game.

Bridge tolls to rise Golden Ears increase to cover inﬂation: TransLink by Jeff Nagel TOLLS TO cross the Golden Ears Bridge will go up a

nickel for most standard vehicles on July 15. “It’s been part of the business plan that there would be annual adjustments in tolls to keep up with inflation,” TransLink spokesman Ken Hardie said. He said the increases will also help ensure the toll bridge heads towards financial break-even. Regular cars will pay five cents more – those with transponders will pay $2.80 to cross, those who are registered but detected by video will pay $3.35 and unregistered users billed by mail will pay $3.95. Small trucks will pay 10 cents more for a mini-

mum of $5.65. Large trucks will pay 15 cents more ($9.55) if they’re unregistered, 10 cents more if they are registered ($8.40). There’s no increase for registered motorcycles, but unregistered ones will pay five cents more. TransLink executives had recently discussed the potential to introduce discounts in the tolls to try to drum up more traffic. “That remains a tool in the tool box we can use if we need it,” Hardie said, but added traffic levels on the bridge have been improving. The number of vehicles crossing in June is expected to be up about 25 per cent from January, he said. “The trend is extremely positive.”

A rebate of up to $26,250 is to ensure buyers of new homes up to $525,000 pay no more tax than they did before the HST when only GST applied. Horn predicts the HST will give new housing in the Fraser Valley a selling advantage because most condos, townhomes and even some new single family homes sell for less than $525,000 in the region. That’s less likely to be the case closer to Vancouver, where land values are higher.

llo

Greater Vancouver benchmark prices are above their previous spring 2008 highs in all categories. June’s real estate sales were down 5.8 per cent in Greater Vancouver, and 30 per cent off from a year ago. Fraser Valley reported a 23-percent jump in sales from May – down eight per cent from a year ago. Board president Deanna Horn said the busier-than-expected June sales pace may have been due to lowered mortgage rates and the impending arrival of the HST.

J o in us un d e

softened in June after a continued rebound in the first half of 2010 from recession-bottom lows reached more than a year ago. Detached houses sold for a benchmark price of $795,025 in June, up 13.4 per cent from a year ago, the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver reported. Duplexes and townhouses were up 11.6 per cent from a year ago to $492,860 in the Greater Vancouver, while condos gained 9.7 per cent to $391,530. Although the Greater Vancouver real estate prices were up on a yearover-year basis, they actually slid nearly two per cent from May. The weaker prices coincided with a darkening global economic outlook and the July 1 arrival of the Harmonized Sales Tax in B.C., adding to the cost of more expensive new homes. “There has been less upward pressure on prices in our market the last few months, which has allowed prices to ease back from the record high numbers seen in April,” Greater Vancouver board president Jake Moldowan said. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board, which includes Surrey, Langley, White Rock and North Delta, reported benchmark detached houses climbed 9.9 per cent from a year ago to $518,350 in June, although most parts of the region were flat or down slightly from May. Townhouses sold for a benchmark price of $328,000 in June, up nine per cent from a year ago, while typical condos sold for $246,350, a 6.6-per-cent one-year gain. Fraser Valley house prices are now marginally above their previous peak in the spring of 2008, but apartments and townhouses are still short of their all-time highs.

LAST WEEK WE ASKED:

Did you purchase goods or services before July 1 in order to beat the HST? Here’s how you responded: Yes 43% No 57% EYE IN THE SKY

Weighing in on Air 2

’m often asked questions before I interview people: How long will this take? Do you have to use my name? When will the story be published? Can you put it on the front page? Can I read it before it goes to print? Can I get extra copies for my mom? The list is endless, and few pre-interview questions surprise me anymore. But Tammy Sandquist’s did. The affable RCMP constable was my contact in arranging a recent fly-along aboard Air 2, one of the Mounties’ dedicated helicopters. (Online, see the story at http://bit.ly/czNfaR ). She’s a tactical flight officer, patrolling the skies over the Lower Mainland day and night in search of the bad, the lost, the confused and sundry others. In preparing for me to tag along, and equipped with the fact I am a Peace Arch News reporter, Sandquist really only needed to know one thing: “How much do you weigh?” Now I’m no heavyweight, and not particularly shy about my weight – it’s about 130 lbs., depending on the week’s bagel and cappuccino intake – but it did seem like an odd question, at first. “For every extra pound of person, we have to remove fuel,” she explained. Ahhh. Still, I have to admit it felt a little weird knowing my weight would be responsible for decreasing the quantity of fuel we’d have as we hovered over the Lower Mainland. Would that mean we could follow fewer bad guys? Find one less lost child? Tracy Help rescue one fewer stranded hiker? Technically, the answer to all my questions is yes. They typically refuel every 2½ to three hours, and 130 lbs. of fuel has got to shave that down. But really, even with me onboard, there’s still 350 litres of fuel in that tank. That’s gotta go a long way, right? Right???? Thankfully, the thought left my mind shortly before liftoff, as Sandquist gave the run-through of safety procedures, should calamity strike. Seatbelt? No stranger to those (thanks, Mom). Check. Door release? As in, to make the doors drop from the craft in the event it plummets and I need to leap out. Gulp. Check.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

FIRST NATIONS

Move quickly from the ‘copter in the event of an emergency landing? Check. Duck during said exit if the skids are destroyed, to preserve scalp? Ummm… check. Right, then. Time to go. Last chance to back out. Wait! Maybe if Sandquist knew the truth about me, my weakness, she would change her mind and I wouldn’t have to look like the chicken I was becoming. So I confess: I get motion sickness. Yes, truth be told, I was all but incapacitated a few years back after spending an hour on a docked cruise ship. That’s right, docked. And here I was, about to settle into a space smaller than my hall closet. Yeah, this oughta go well. But it didn’t sway Sandquist. After a slightly nervous check as to the chopper’s supply of airsickness bags – none, by the way – we were off. Fortunately, that new Gravol with organic ginger worked, and I was good for just over an hour. Long enough to get a new perspective on the Semiahmoo Peninsula and other areas, not to mention get some insight into Sandquist’s world. And it was a pretty cool view, a cocktail of landscape and development intermixed with the daily comings and goings of those who call the Lower Mainland home. There was the winding Serpentine River, and the orange glow of the sun Holmes setting in the west. There were police cars gathered on a Burnaby street, and a massive estate under construction on the bluff overlooking Crescent Beach – the latter a sight hidden from the ground. My flight may not have had a lot of action – no dramatic arrests or rescues or the like – but it certainly gave a glimpse into the value of having an eye in the sky and those watching over us. Enough that I’ve almost forgotten about that question Sandquist asked at the outset. Almost. On that note, I think it’s time to add another gym day to my week.

Wasting Delta suite legalization is overdue public money RE: “DELTA CONSIDERS legalizing suites.”

THE B.C. LIBERALS and their sup-

porters will tell us, “We need the HST. The government has a big deficit and debt. How else will we pay for the government programs?” Now imagine if you had those same problems in your family, and many of you do. Would it do any good to go to your employer and say, “I need more pay to take care of my debts, deficits and to pay for my many needs?” Why do these Liberal supporters never say “we’re giving the government enough money, they must learn to use it smarter?” We recently heard about an MP spending more money in one year travelling first class between Surrey and Ottawa than what the average family has to live on for 15 years. Our own premier, seeking a diversion from the HST, decided to announce the building of the Site C dam, completed in 10 years maybe, not from his Victoria office but at the dam site, flying himself plus his entourage and the media in five hired Lear jets. That little junket probably cost us as much as it would have cost to fund a program for autistic children for the better part of a year. The federal government hosted the G20 conference in Toronto. Security cost $1.2 billion. That’s $250 for every man, woman and child in our province. Why didn’t they simply pick an island, the U.N. building in New York, the White house in Washington, or even a big cruise ship in the middle of the ocean? Security costs would have been a fraction. When the premier, his ministers and our MLAs gave themselves and their bureaucrats huge pay increases just before trying to introduce a new, cruel tax that hurt poor people most, many of whom haven’t seen a pay increase in years, it didn’t instill much confidence either. The next time you tell me that the government must tax more to have more money, ask yourself why don’t we insist they better manage what we give them now? Bill Vander Zalm Ladner

Now this is about 20 years overdue. I would say that over 50 per cent of North Delta homes have at least one suite. Looking out my front window, I see four. I can tell you from experience that most are a safety hazard. Garages are being turned into living space with sewer pipes running outside the building. Some electrical is so overloaded you can only have one thing in use at one time. Furnaces and hot water tanks are open in the middle of a suite, and rugs are so old they ripple

and are crusty. Some only allow the use of a one burner hot plate and a microwave and bar fridge. Not only are these premises unfit to inhabit, they are a danger to neighbouring homes. All you need to do is read the ads in papers and on craigslist for rentals and look at estate ads to see how many are out there. There needs to be a good, solid bylaw that is enforceable. Delta’s bylaws have become a little wishwashy over the years. They are too open for interpretation.

These premises are definitely needed but need to be limited, registered, regulated, taxed and inspected. One suite (rental) per address. The owner of each suite needs to pay separate utility fees and taxes and then the income from the suite will be subject to provincial and federal taxes. I should not be paying for my neighbours’ suites as I am currently. Let’s get a glove and get in the game Delta. J. Ralph Delta

HST hurts pet owners too THE HST CONTINUES to add insult to

injury. I am absolutely appalled that the HST is being applied to veterinarian services. Due to my husband being unemployed for the past two years and the illness of our beloved canine we have almost gone bankrupt. We have paid over $6,000 in veterinarian care last year and that isn’t even including the special diet and multiple supplements or medication he needs. Do you think it is a luxury and that I enjoy giving X-rays, scopes, ultrasounds, and catheters that frighten my pet for fun? The nature of his illness forces us to constantly monitor his health with frequent lab tests with no end in sight. I shouldn’t be punished for being a responsible pet owner and doing the right thing. Congratulations Mr. Campbell – it must be nice to sit on your throne without a worry in the world and not have to live paycheque to paycheque unlike the average person like myself who has to work their butt off to make ends meet. A letter writer points out the ﬁnancial hardships caused by veterinary bills – which will now be no less expensive with the application of the HST.

Most Surrey tree cutting is illegal I WOULD I LIKE to comment

on the front page article on June 30, “Tree cuts fall with economy.” As a resident of Surrey, I feel that the reason this number is down officially is because the trees are being cut down without permits. I personally am experiencing this on my street. There are two houses that are being rebuilt. One person is doing all the correct procedures, the other is doing what he wants. The city had fencing up around four trees in this lot and the owner took down the fences and then blatantly murdered these trees. It was the saddest thing I think I have ever seen.

All the concerned homeowners on the street have called in repeatedly to the city. Bylaw has been by and has commented that it even looks like this person has encroached onto the surrounding properties as well as damaged the root system of trees on the neighbouring lot. This person is proceeding with no regard to city rules and bylaws. I see this type of attitude throughout our city. The economy being down just means people are not going to ask but just do in the hopes of skirting the proper approach. Elizabeth Simpson Surrey

Getting harder to make ends meet

ACCORDING TO Gordon

Campbell, about 1.1 million British Columbians will get the B.C. HST tax credit. Starting July 1, individuals with incomes up to $20,000 will receive a $230 HST credit. As per the 2006 census, there are more than four million people in B.C. This means that about 25 per cent of all British Columbian make less then $20,000 in the

Ban protects police

most beautiful place on Earth. In order to enjoy the “beauty” in B.C. you need money to play here. As a pensioner I am not playing much – but do have a little more than $20,000 so I will not get the $230 HST tax credit. I looked at the schedule of newly HST taxed items and calculated that I will pay $260 per year in extra taxes. We are only a few days into the HST taxa-

tion and it seems some merchants have upped the price for $1 items to $1.25 – a 25 per cent increase instead of 14 per cent. It becomes harder and harder to make ends meet on a limited income. Many thanks to Mr. Campbell, who no doubt will retire at the end of his term on a super government pension.

A. Wrobbel, Delta

WITH REGARD to Ms. Bonnie Game’s letter about being ticketed for tinted windows – they are illegal and have been for some time. If an officer has to approach a vehicle with tinted windows, they have no way of knowing who is inside or if they could be carrying weapons. I would rather have tinted windows banned than lose a police officer’s life.

TransLink staff, board salaries released More than 100 employees earned six-ﬁgure paycheques by Jeff Nagel TRANSLINK’S nine-

member board of directors collected $545,000 in combined pay and expenses last year.

That’s about $30,000 less than the previous year, financial disclosures indicate. The province eliminated the old board of mayors and

councillors who oversaw TransLink until late 2007 and replaced them with a set of appointed, unelected directors, most of whom are businessoriented professionals

or academics. The switch was intended to depoliticize TransLink decision-making. Board chair Dale Parker received a flat $100,000 stipend and

claimed an additional $1,241 in expenses. Directors each get an annual base fee of $25,000, plus another $1,200 for every meeting they attend, plus up to $8,000 for chair-

ing committees. Director Bruce Garnett, who attended the most meetings, collected the biggest pay packet – $58,050 in 2009. Others received

between $46,650 and $56,800. Only two directors claimed any expenses – Nancy Olewiler ($54.45) and Garnett ($100). TransLink also released details of its salary and expense payouts to employees for 2009. They show 115 employees were paid more than $100,000 last year. Fifty of the employees listed as earning six figures plus were

GEORGE PLOWMAN just wanted

to buy a phone card, but his Canada Day quest uncovered some first-day glitches with B.C.’s shift to the new Harmonized Sales Tax. The former South Surrey resident – who had temporarily returned for medical treatments after moving to 100 Mile House three years ago – was trying to make the purchase on King George Boulevard near 72 Avenue around 10 p.m. July 1. But three gas stations in a row were charging both the 12-percent HST and the five-per-cent GST for a total of 17 per cent in taxes. The $50 phone card plus a $2.39 bottle of Coke ended up costing more than $61, about $2.60 more than it should have. “I finally had to buy a card so I paid for it,” he said, but he lodged a complaint at the station. He later got an apology and a refund but Plowman still

wonders how many residents may have been unknowingly overcharged in the first couple of days of the tax while such errors were ironed out. “I was just so mad,” he said. “How much money was raked in on Thursday by nobody changing their system on time?” Consumers Association of Canada spokesman Mel Fruitman said shoppers have to be watchful as the HST kicks in, particularly at smaller outlets where less work may have been done to ensure a smooth transition. “You have to be vigilant for sure to make sure you’re being charged the right rate and you’re not being double charged.” In other cases, customers have raised red flags where businesses are in the right. Some residents spotted entries for HST, PST and GST on their recent telephone bills and called up Telus, convinced the phone company was ripping them off.

Attention A ttention All Business Owners s You Now Qualify For Full Fleet Lease-Discounts s

The billing cycle straddles July 1, so recent bills include HST for advance-billed services provided in July, while GST and PST still apply before that. “There’s certainly some confusion out there,” Telus spokesman Shawn Hall said. ICBC is also correcting misinformation on the Fight HST website, which suggested the public auto insurer was skimming money by no longer issuing GST vouchers as part of settlements when a damaged vehicle is written off. In fact, ICBC now pays a 12-per-cent tax allowance on the total loss when the customer buys their replacement vehicle, in effect providing the same benefit as the GST vouchers and the old PST allowance. A totalled vehicle valued at $1,000 means the customer will get a payout of $1,120, including the allowance, towards the replacement vehicle, said spokesman Adam Grossman.

‘Guardian angel’ saves girl from drowning

Silhouette Duette Luminette Pirouette

Toddler found lying face-down in backyard pool Black Press A TODDLER is expected to fully recover

from a near drowning in South Surrey Wednesday evening, after being found facedown in a pool. The two-year-old girl and her mother were visiting a Morgan Creek home in the 15900 block of Devonshire Drive. While outside near the pool around 6:30 p.m., police say, the mother briefly went back inside the house, and returned to find her daughter floating in the pool. Neighbour Mario Knezevic rushed to the scene shortly after the girl’s mother called 911, and he began administering CPR.

Knezevic said the CPR training he learned in Croatia 26 years ago came flooding back to him when he saw the girl in distress. “I was just thinking if she was going to die on me I would have to deal with that for the rest of my life,” he told CTV News. “It wasn’t her time to die.” After the child coughed up water and her eyes opened, another neighbour – a doctor – took over resuscitation attempts until paramedics arrived. The girl was airlifted to B.C. Children’s Hospital and is expected to make a full recovery. In an email to CTV News, the girl’s

! s i c o u i l e D

mother said her daughter was breathing on her own and has made a full recovery. “Thank you to all who helped and to Mario for being our daughter’s guardian angel.” The child and her family were visiting B.C.’s Lower Mainland from Kelowna. Drowning is the second leading cause of death for children between the ages of one and four, according to B.C. Children’s Hospital. Every year in B.C., 43 people die from drowning, and 285 more are hospitalized for close calls.

Dogs can now run free in four Delta parks.

Delta dog parks approved Off-leash areas designated by Philip Raphael FIDO AND his owner have been given a new off-

leash on life after Delta council voted to designate four local parks for untethered dogs. The parks include Dennison Park, Ladner Harbour Park and North Deltaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Delview Park and Scott Park Reserve. While the designation, which requires fencing off those parks, will allow canines and their owners more freedom, Delta dog owners were already allowing their pets to wander in local parks. During an observation period by Delta parks department staff last February to March, the majority of dog owners were viewed letting their dogs go off-leash. Despite the high numbers, there were few complaints when compared to other bylaw offences. According to a parks report to mayor and council recommending off-leash areas, Delta Animal Control officers had 27 files related to off-leash dogs in local parks. By comparison, Delta had more than 2,600 files relating to other bylaw offences over the same time period. Mayor Lois Jackson said the parks will allow more dog owners to become physically active if they do not have to worry about chasing after their pets in an unfenced area. editor@southdeltaleader.com

A record haul of felines at Delta shelter Municipality considers licensing and ‘cat curfews’ by Dan Ferguson

LEADER FILE PHOTO

Following the rescue of 13 cats and 11 kittens from a North Delta Home, the Delta Community Animal Shelter has more than 80 cats and kittens in its care.

IT TOOK more than one trip for animal control officers to collect all 13 cats and 11 kittens from a small North Delta rental suite last month. The Delta Community Animal Shelter had to borrow kennels to hold them all. The June 7 seizure represented the largest number of cats ever captured in a single day, shelter manager Sarah Lowe said. None of them were spayed or neutered. Lowe said the colony of cats was in surprisingly good condition. “Their coats were in good shape,” Lowe observed. “Only four of them had fleas.” Though the cats were allowed to come and go at will from the residence, they hadn’t gone wild, Lowe said. They are, if anything, a little timid, but otherwise perfectly suitable as pets now that they have been vaccinated and sterilized.

The owner admitted things had “gotten away from her” after she took in some abandoned cats, Lowe said. The new arrivals have brought the total number of cats in custody at the shelter to 60 adults (four of them pregnant), plus 21 kittens. By contrast, the shelter is holding 18 dogs and seven puppies. Currently, Delta cat owners are not required to get their cats licensed the way dog owners must (though owners of un-neutered cats are supposed to obtain a breeding permit). It can make it hard to reunite cat owners with their pets when a lost feline arrives at the shelter. Owners are often asked to bring a photo of their cat as proof of ownership. That could change later this year, once Delta Council has considered a proposed overhaul of the municipal animal control bylaw that includes requiring cat owners to purchase licences. One possibility under study

would adopt a system similar to the one operated by authorities in Calgary. The Alberta city requires a licence for all cats and dogs three months of age and older. Owners who fail to get a permit can be fined $250. While dogs in Calgary must wear their licence tags whenever they are off their owner’s property, cats that have a microchip or legible tattoo do not need to wear their licence tags. Another option under review is a so-called “cat curfew” concept from Australia which would require cat owners to keep their pets indoors overnight. Shelter manager Lowe said a decision on a licence fee or curfew is up to council, not the shelter. But she added any measure that would make it easier to identify stray cats would be a welcome one. A report on the cat control options is expected by the end of this summer.

Big sockeye run? Healthy return would be salmon salvation by Jeff Nagel IT COULD be another year of swimming

dangerously. Or a surprise bumper crop of sockeye salmon. The first sockeye have arrived in the lower Fraser River to begin their upstream migration. Exactly how big the run will be remains a huge question mark. The pre-season forecast from the Department of Fisheries and Oceans estimates 11.4 million sockeye should return this summer. But those advance projections have been notoriously wrong â&#x20AC;&#x201C; dismal runs of less than two million fish in 2008 and 2009 are the subject of a judicial inquiry into the decline of Fraser sockeye. Still, there are hopeful signs. Large numbers of sockeye have been spotted on the west side of Vancouver Island. And near-record numbers of sockeye are being counted by Washington State authorities in the Columbia River. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got our fingers crossed that there could be a really good run coming back,â&#x20AC;? said Bob McKamey, president of the Area E Gillnetters Association. Sto:lo fisheries advisor Ernie Crey said the optimism is understandable, but added there needs to be strong local evidence of a healthy run before fishing is approved. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hope people are right,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need to be cautious.â&#x20AC;? Nor would a big rebound this year

necessarily signal sockeye have turned a corner. Sockeye have a four-year life cycle and this is the year of the huge Adams River run, which is expected to account for many of the incoming salmon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The return this year is no indication the other years and runs will recover,â&#x20AC;? said biologist Dr. Alexandra Morton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For reasons no one can explain yet, this strong Fraser cycle has been less impacted than all the others over the past 10 years.â&#x20AC;? Because the Adams River sockeye are late runners, a solid picture of this seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overall sockeye return may not emerge until September. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not going to get too excited,â&#x20AC;? said B.C. Fisheries Survival Coalition spokesperson Phil Eidsvik. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The forecasts have been so wrong weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll just sit tight and rely on our test fishing reports when we actually see fish in the river.â&#x20AC;? Several observers said they hope a strong return doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t reduce the pressure for major fishery reforms that could spring out of the Cohen Commission, which begins detailed hearings in the fall. So far Fraser River water temperatures are about average â&#x20AC;&#x201C; good for returning salmon â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but low snowpack levels in much of the Fraser watershed could result in dangerously low water levels in some tributaries later in the summer.

Notice of Intent Proposed Road Closure

Notice is given pursuant to Section 60(2) of the Transportation Act that the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure has received an application from the Semiahmoo First Nation to permanently close Beach Road, located south of 8th Avenue on the west side of Highway 99 within the City of Surrey and that such closed road be vested pursuant to Section 60 of the Transportation Act. Beach Road was originally acquired by the Province from the Semiahmoo Reserve, as shown on Plan 4797 CLSR B.C. Should the closure proceed, the road will be returned to the Government of Canada for inclusion in general reserve lands. The plan showing the proposed road closure can be viewed from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure Lower Mainland District office at the address below.

Sales tax break for crossborder shoppers blocked Washington State exemption tied up in court Even if the exemption survives the legal challenge, B.C. shoppers may not benefit for long. Several state politicians want to dismantle the tax break at the earliest opportunity. That chance won’t come until early 2011, when the state legislature sits again. Technically, the exemption for those eligible is a discretionary one – stores aren’t required to honour it and some opt not to because of the added paperwork. The Washington State sales tax isn’t charged on meals, lodging or other services. The exemption was originally created in 1965 to try to entice cross-border shoppers to eastern Washington from Oregon, where there’s no sales tax. Bellingham’s biggest retailers report up to 30 per cent of their customers are Canadian. Bellingham officials estimate the city could lose up to $1.3 million per year if the exemption is upheld. jnagel@surreyleader.com

CROSS-BORDER shoppers heading to Washington State are being denied a promised exemption for B.C. residents from the state sales tax. The tax break was supposed to kick in July 1 – the same day the Harmonized Sales Tax took effect in B.C. But the exemption is on hold after the City of Bellingham and Whatcom County lodged a court challenge of the rule change June 30. The Skagit County Superior Court judge who will hear the case starting July 9 ordered the state to notify any businesses that proceed with the exemption that it may be overturned. Although Bellis Fair Mall’s Target outlet was granting the exemption to B.C. shoppers on Canada Day, most other retailers weren’t, fearing they’ll lose money if they’re eventually forced to remit the tax to the state. The tax in Bellingham and

Whatcom County is 8.5 per cent – 6.5 per cent goes to the state plus two per cent for the county. The local jurisdictions fear the loss of tax revenue from B.C. shoppers could force them to raise other local taxes or cut services. “While our community welcomes Canadian shoppers, the loss of sales tax revenue, if the ruling prevails, presents significant challenges to alreadyfinancially-strapped local governments,” Bellingham Mayor Dan Pike said. State revenue department officials last month decided the exemption from sales tax in Washington State that applies to Albertans and others from jurisdictions where there’s little or no sales tax should also apply to B.C. residents once the HST kicks in. The logic is that B.C. no longer has a sales tax, because the 12 per cent HST is instead considered a value-added tax. The court action argues that interpretation was incorrect.

Tighter idling rules for buses COAST MOUNTAIN Bus

Co. is pledging new steps to reduce bus idling to avoid emissions, cut fuel use and comply with anti-idling bylaws. Drivers are now to turn off buses when they expect to be stopped at a stop or bus loop for more than three minutes or when they leave a bus unattended. SeaBuses will also use shore power when docked at maintenance and fueling bays. Coast Mountain vehicles emitted 1,486 tonnes of carbon dioxide per million kilometres of fleet mileage and the TransLink subsidiary is aiming to cut that carbon footprint by three per cent this year.

But thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still about 25 per cent less fuel than the typical Washington State resident uses. Americans generally burn more gas than Canadians, in part due to higher taxes here. The Sightline report also argued major road upgrades, including the construction of the new Port Mann Bridge, will deepen motoristsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; dependence on petroleum. Metro Vancouver gas prices are currently averaging about $1.16 per litre. Two years ago, the pump prices here peaked at close to $1.50 before sliding to around 80 cents by January 2009.

increased fuel consumption, he said. But preparations to host the 2010 Olympics likely also boosted economic activity and fuel use, he said, noting B.C.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recession was also milder than many other jurisdictions. The carbon tax, which rose 1.12 cents on Canada Day to 4.45 cents per litre, has helped put downward pressure on fuel use. But de Place said that effect was â&#x20AC;&#x153;overwhelmedâ&#x20AC;? in 2009 by the more than 30-cent plunge in gas prices. The average B.C. resident burned more than 21 litres of gas per week, the highest level in 10 years.

Surrey’s Sukhi Sandhu displays some of the numerous souvenirs he collected while working as a volunteer at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

Surrey soccer coach learns, watches while working at the World Cup by Rick Kupchuk

fter four weeks in South Africa, Sukhi Sandhu had had enough. Working as a volunteer at the world’s largest sporting event, the Surrey resident decided not to stay for the conclusion of the 2010 World Cup, boarding a plane home just as the international soccer tournament reached the quarterfinal stage. “I just wanted to get home,” said Sandhu. “I was up every day before 6 a.m., and often worked until 9 p.m. “But it was a unique experience, and a very good one. One I will never forget.” Sandhu worked as an assistant competitions coordinator during the tournament, a larger role than what he expected when informed he was one of 1,500 international volunteers selected to work the World Cup back in March. In South Africa, Sandhu worked under FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association) staff in Port Elizabeth, overseeing a group of volunteers assigned the task of handling the dressing room setups for participating teams. On game days – and there were 10 of them – Sandhu was up at 4:45 a.m. for a

plined and very structured. “I watched South Korea practice their set plays for an hour and a half. And they got a goal out of it.” Sandhu was also on the sidelines during one of the more dramatic moments of the group stage of the tournament, when striker Didier Drogba of the Ivory Coast – who broke his arm in a pre-tournament game just days before the first game – came off the bench to warm-up prior to entering a game as a substitute during a scoreless tie with Portugal. “He was the most impressive, dynamic player I have met,” said Sandhu. “When he got up, the people started to cheer, and he starts waving his arms to get them to cheer even louder.” As the tournament hit the knockout stage, eliminated teams began heading home, as did many of the volunteers – including the group that Sandhu was working with. “I was most impressed with how FIFA organized everything,” he said. “As a volunteer, once you proved yourself, you earned the respect of FIFA officials. “And the venue team I worked with was excellent, they did an outstanding job.”

“It was a little nerve-wracking. You just don’t really know what’s going on and you just kind of have to jump right into it,” she said. “But some of these girls, like (30-year-old catcher) Erin Cumpstone, I’ve watched for years, and it’s pretty exciting to be out here on the same field as her, and be in the same dugout.” Riske isn’t the only up-andcomer in Canada’s lineup this week. White Rock Renegades pitcher Jocelyn Cater - who was named to Canada’s junior team this week – pitched two innings for the national side Monday against Washington, and Marina Demore, a former Surrey Storm and White Rock Renegades player who now pitches for the Oregon State Beavers, threw a combined

three innings in Canada’s opening two contests. After a three-game set against Washington, Canada now faces the U.S. for four games, including one tonight (Friday) at 7 p.m. The cross-border battle began Thursday night, after press deadline. Though the American team – which only brought five players from its world championship team to South Surrey, led by veterans Ashley Charters and Chelsea Bramlett – is young, it should provide a glimpse into the future for fans of both teams. “It’s our young against their young,” said Team Canada’s operations manager Harvey Stevenson. Regardless of the lineups fielded by each team, playing the U.S. – especially on home turf – is always special said Canadian outfielder Melanie Matthews, a 24-year-old South Surrey native. “It’s really important for us to come out strong here, because a lot of the young girls are going to be watching and looking up to us, and you want to be sure that you give them something good to see,” she said. The games also give the team a chance to stay sharp after such a grueling world championships, which included two dramatic victories on Canada Day, against Australia and China. In both games, the winning run was scored in the bottom of the seventh inning. “It was awesome. We definitely got the performances we needed, from everyone, and it was nice to get the bounces to go our way for a change,” Matthews said. “It was one heck of a Canada Day, that’s for sure.” The following day, Canada lost the semifinal game to Japan to earn bronze – the first-ever medal for Team Canada at world championships.

AFTER A TAXING, but ultimately successful, week at world championships in Caracas, Venezuela, the newly bronzed Canadian women’s softball team is focusing on youth this week the Canadian Open Fastpitch International Championship, where the team has been playing exhibition tilts nightly. For proof of the national program’s concentration on its next wave of stars, one needn’t look further than the batter’s box Tuesday night, where 20-year-old Surrey Storm infielder Leah Riske was wearing the Maple Leaf. Riske, in her first-ever atbat with the national team, smacked a single in the third inning of Canada’s game against the Washington Absolute Blast. And later in the inning, after Canada hit through the order, Riske drilled a three-run home run over the fence at Softball City’s diamond 1. Canada won the game 13-0, the second straight shutout over the Blast. On Thursday, Canada began a four-game series against the world championship-winning U.S. national team, which is also fielding a young team far different than the one that travelled to Venezuela. Riske, a Cloverdale resident and member of the Storm ‘90 senior girls team, got the call at the last minute to don the red and white, in place of some of the team’s senior members who were given a break; former White Rock Renegade Corinne Doornberg, for example, went back to the University of Mississippi after helping Canada to a third-place finish in Caracas. “It was kind of out of the blue, a little bit,” said Riske, a multi-sport star who was an accomplished Junior Bantam quarterback, soccer goalie and

javelin thrower before focusing solely on softball. “(Canada head coach Mark Smith) sent me an email about a week ago. This is my first experience at this level and I’m pretty excited,” Riske said on Tuesday afternoon, during a Team Canada practice at Sunnyside Park before her big game. Riske admitted that, before Canada’s first game Monday – in which she played a few innings at third base but didn’t hit – she was a little nervous, but was grateful for the chance to sit in the same dugout as the women she watched at Canada Cup events in years past.

year cutting his manuscript down to its present length. And Jones said he discovered, in the process, he liked his younger self. “Although I think I toned down a lot of the way I was,” he admitted, noting that it was not unlike his earlier self, in a bid to impress a girl, to dive into the water, fully clothed, from the deck of the Toronto ferry. The Lorne of the novel emerges as likeable and enterprising, yet shy and awkward – pretty much the typical teenager. And his informal cottage-community milieu is tangibly drawn, with just enough pop-culture references to evoke the times. Although the era seems now to have the innocent aura of an old snapshot, Jones reminds the reader that this was a time when children had grown up with bomb drills and the threat of impending nuclear devastation. The Toronto Island community, too, was facing an imminent demise – under the aggressively expansionist policies of the Toronto Parks Board, all private residences were due to be gobbled up and transformed into parkland by 1968. “It was signed, sealed, a done-deal,” Jones remembered, adding that this contributed to a certain reckless, live-for today, antiauthoritarian attitude among the islanders, with whom iconoclasts like the Acorns could feel at home. It is thanks to Milton Acorn, who defied ordinances by reading in public parks, that there is even such a thing as a professional poet in Canada today, Jones said. And although MacEwen, who died at only 46, has tended to be enshrined latterly as a figure of pathos, she emerges from Jones’ account as a strong-willed, intensely

thoughtful – even psychic – individual. “To me, Gwen was never a tragic figure. It was never poor Gwen – she would have been the first to reject that.” MacEwen planned to use her understanding of myth and the human process of creating religions (many of her ideas anticipated Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code by decades) to literally change the world. And Jones admits he became intellectually enamoured of her – even though she didn’t fit his “boob-obsessed” teenage notions of an attractive woman. “Gwen wasn’t the centre of my life,” he said. “There were plenty of other people around that had an influence on me, and I was just a young boy doing the best I could.” Nonetheless, her ideas prompt a key symbolic moment in the novel – as it did in life – Jones said. “It was Gwen’s influence, letting me see that an idea placed in the right place time could change the world, that led me to paint Save Island Homes on a rock down by the water. “Those three poorly painted words started an idea that spread and became a movement, “ he said, showing me several time-worn T-shirts and badges with the slogan that rallied islanders in a subsequent historic battle against the Toronto Parks Board and city hall. It was a battle the islanders won, he said – and the evidence is the 200 homes, some of them new, that sit on the island shores today. Mighty Oaks by Lorne S.

Student takes top prize in poster contest Anti-gang message to go B.C.-wide by Hannah Sutherland WHAT STARTED as a marketing class assignment for an Elgin Park Secondary student has turned into a prize-winning project that will be mass produced and distributed to schools and community centres around the province. Last month, 16-year-old Douglas Scandrett was assigned to create five posters in one week, and submit the best one to the Teens Against Gangs contest. More than 300 youth entered the competition for a chance to win one of three iPads and have their poster and its anti-gang message published. Scandrettâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s poster, which he spent three hours creating on his computer, depicts a television news report of a teen killed in a shooting. The words â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s better ways to

Grads 60 years apart unite THE FIRST GRADUATING CLASS from North Surrey Second-

ary School, the graduates of 1950, recently met in the North Surrey Secondary library for a luncheon. The event was attended by 12 members of that class, two of their teachers, Ms. M. Adams and Ms. P. Edwards and several current staff and students. A luncheon prepared by the North Surrey culinary arts department was served. Guests heard the North Surrey Choir sing and watched a DVD with highlights of their graduation year that was prepared by the North Surrey media arts department. The grads of 1950 shared stories of their graduation year and were given a tour of the school. At the end of the luncheon, the current Grade 12 students extended an invitation to the grads of 1950 to attend their commencement ceremonies. Three grads of 1950 and one teacher from the class of 1950 then attended the school’s 60th commencement ceremonies on June 17 at the Bell Performing Arts Centre and presented a scholarship to two North Surrey grads of 2010.

Global fundraising STUDENTS OF THE GLOBAL AWARENESS CLUB at Kwantlen

Park Secondary School set out on an ambitious path – to raise $8,500 to build a school in Sierra Leone through the Free the Children Organization. Fundraising efforts throughout the year included: The Vow of Silence, pie throwing at staff and the administration, Count the Candies, BBQ hotdog and hamburger sales (with the help of the Lions Club), student, staff, and parent donations, The Titans Basketball Fundraiser, the $1,000 Challenge inspired by Hardip Sidhu, a park clean-up (in partnership with Surrey parks), gift card fundraisers and a school-wide raffle for an MP3 player. “The Brick by Brick Campaign has inspired millions of people, like myself, to help students around the globe explore their passions and open new doors for them,” said student Ravneet Dhaliwal. Manrubby Dhillon was also inspired by the initiative. “This challenge has brought together my local school and community in order to make a positive contribution, and not only unite with each other, but with the world. You can truly make your life’s footprint on the world a positive one.”

Addressing awareness

wo Simon Fraser University students, who are the first recipients of the new Changemakers award, are using the honour to draw attention to the high incidence of cervical cancer in the Lower Mainland’s South Asian community. Sean Peters, an SFU anthropology and business graduate who cofounded Global Agents of Change – a Vancouver-based social change incubator – created Changemakers. The $500 award supports students who launch an innovative, grassroots project aimed at creating positive social change off campus. Inspired by research they came across in their studies as molecular biology undergrads, Chantelle Chand and Nidhi Nayyar, both of South Asian heritage, are using their award to mount a forum. They want to bring together researchers, non-profit sex education groups, health professionals – especially gynecologists – media and women dealing with cervical cancer to address a taboo but deadly topic in South Asian communities. “Because women in South Asian cultures are usually conservative and lack education about reproductive health, they tend to ignore the issue at their own peril,” said Chand. “The presence of medical instruments, other women from their community in a doctor’s office and male doctors will make many women either leave, without being tested, or stay away from a clinic.” Referring to published statistics and research, Chand, notes cervical cancer

The disease claims the lives of almost 100,000 East Indian women annually – 140,000 Indian women are diagnosed with the disease annually. Studies have correlated South Asian women’s death rate from cervical cancer in B.C., which is the highest among all women in the province, to ignorance about pap tests and failure to get them.

than 90 per cent of cases caught early. But less than 28 per cent of IndoCanadian women get them, compared to 86 per cent of their Euro-Canadian counterparts.

Summer watering: Technique is key Learn how and where to add moisture in order to make the most of a precious resource

greenscene

IN SPITE of the cool wet spring we’ve suffered through this year, summer heat has now arrived. As nice as this may be, it could be tough on our plants. Sudden heat, with soaring temperatures, creates demand for moisture which cannot always be met on short notice by the root systems of many plants. The result is burnt blossoms, damaged foliage and fruit drop. Fortunately, there are

Brian Minter ways of minimizing the problems caused by this sudden fluctuation in weather. The most immedi-

ate relief for plants is a thorough, deep watering. It is best to do this early in the morning when the plants will make the greatest use of the water. Watering in the evening is not the best use of water because plants simply transpire valuable moisture away. The other huge issue is where to water. Soaker hoses around the perimeter of all trees and shrubs is the most effective way to water. A little water is worse

than no water. When you water, saturate the soil deeply where the roots are to keep them going downward instead of upward in an effort to capture what little moisture there is. The next most important task is to mulch all your trees and shrubs with suitable material. You should be looking for something which is a good insulator, can eventually be worked into the soil and has an attractive appearance.

When watering, make sure to saturate the soil deeply where the roots are to keep them reaching downward instead of upward in an effort to capture the moisture. Garden compost is fine if it is well broken down, but its appearance is not always the best, especially when it dries out. Manures are also fine, but remember that they are slightly on the alkaline side and can cause problems with your acid-loving plants like rhododendrons and camellias. If you use manures, be sure they have been composted for at least six months or use mushroom compost. Grass clippings are quite suitable in the short run but once dried out, they tend to look shabby. My preferred choice is always fir or hemlock bark mulch. Bark is a wonderful insulator, it looks great and makes a fine soil amendment. A covering of three to four inches around all your plant material will prevent a great deal of stress, especially for shallow-rooted plants like rhododendrons. A thorough watering is the most important stress-relieving factor for all the plants under the eaves of your home. Heat reflected off buildings can be a real challenge for plants, so please

do not neglect both the sun and shade areas under the eaves. Here, too, I find soaker hoses and drip systems are, by far, the most efficient and thorough method of watering. Remember too for all your veggies, annuals, perennial beds and containers, try to get in the habit of watering very thoroughly to make sure the roots and soil are moist down deep, not just on the surface. Water less frequently, but really soak the soil when you do water. Lawn grasses are very resourceful. It is far better to water less frequently but when you do, water deeply to get the roots going deeper into the soil to find more moisture. If lawn grasses don’t get enough moisture, they will simply go dormant, coming back when the rains return. Recently laid turf and newly seeded lawns are another issue. They require almost constant moisture until their roots are well enough established to withstand drought. For all plants, proper soil preparation is really

the key. When you plant, make sure the planting hole is at least twice as wide and deep as the root ball and contains lots of organic matter to create an environment where plants can be self sustaining over the long haul. Plants need soil that both drains well and yet has the ability to retain moisture during long dry periods. Try to move away from overhead sprinklers and towards root soaking systems. They are much more efficient and are great water conservers. It only makes sense to water where the plants are versus soaking everything. With proper soil preparation, mulching and watering, all our garden plants should be able to withstand both heat and water restrictions. To conserve water, we all need to change the way we use water around our homes, even collecting it in rain barrels from our eavestroughs when it rains.
