Scrapping more garbage Surrey piloting composting program this fall; input sought by Kevin Diakiw SOON, SURREY residents will be scraping their plates
into a separate waste bin, which will be hauled to a local composting facility. In fact, this fall the city will launch a pilot project collecting organic waste every week and regular garbage only every two. Those organics represent about 65 per cent of the area’s garbage and currently go to the landfill. As such, regular garbage pick ups shouldn’t be required as often. Surrey is currently holding public meetings on how waste diversion will take place. Rob Costanzo, the manager spearheading the change,
Info meetings
went to what he thought would be a lightly attended meeting in North Surrey this month. Because of a communication mix-up, the meeting was held outside the doorway to a room at the North Surrey Recreation Centre. Costanzo said it was perfect. About three people came for the meeting, and another 117 came to see what the fuss was about. From now on, Costanzo said, the waste meetings will be held in public areas. He notes that the public has become insistent that correct environmental measures are put in place. For each idea he floats at a meeting, he has residents asking him “why don’t you do this, too?”
SEVEN MONTHS after he underwent radiation therapy at the Fraser Valley Cancer Centre in Surrey, David Earl Meisner discovered he never had a tumour on his spine. What he had was a fracture that had gone untreated for 10 months. Meisner is now suing the doctor who ordered the radiation treatment and staff at the cancer centre who carried it out for negligence and compensation for pain and suffering. According to a written statement of claim filed in the Vancouver B.C. Supreme Court registry, Meisner was being treated for prostate cancer when he went to Surrey Memorial Hospital in June of 2008 with pain in his right lower back. See PATIENT / Page 3

Patient: Underwent radiation therapy
Christmas charity – in June
From page 1
Based on X-rays, a bone scan and CT scan that showed damage to the lower spine, a doctor at the centre ordered radiation therapy, which was administered over a period of several days. Six months later, in January 2009, Meisner was told he didn’t have cancer. When further tests and scans were carried out at Vancouver General Hospital in March of 2009, the fracture was discovered. Surgery was ordered to fuse the damaged joints and more operations are likely, the statement of claim says. The lawsuit complains the doctor who ordered the radiation failed to take “any or adequate steps” to see if there was some other explanation for the back pain besides cancer. In addition to the spinal fracture that went untreated for 10 months, the lawsuit says Meisner suffered from radiation burns and other after-effects of the treatment. Meisner, his lawyer said, “has suffered and continues to suffer from physical disability and will have a permanent disability causing a loss of enjoyment of the amenities of life.” The lawsuit does not specify the amount of compensation being sought. The allegations made in the lawsuit have not been proven in court and the people named in the lawsuit have yet to file a reply.

Surrey court too slow, judge rules Impaired driving case dismissed after taking 13 months to get to trial by Dan Ferguson IT TAKES MORE than twice as long to get cases to trial in
Surrey than other Lower Mainland courthouses, according to a judge who dismissed an impaired driving charge after a wait of 17 months. In her written reasons for judgment released Tuesday, Judge Ellen Gordon noted courthouses in North Vancouver and New Westminster are able to find trial dates within five to six months, unlike Surrey, where a routine impaired driving case took 13 months to get to trial. And that was after a four-month delay until a formal charge was actually laid against Bryce Raymond Ayers. Ayers said the delays cost him a job that would have been worth $50,000 because he couldn’t guarantee that he would have the required driving licence since he didn’t know what the outcome of his case would be. He also said the delay made it difficult for a defence witness to clearly remember what happened. In her decision dismissing the case against Ayers, Judge
A judgement released this week says it takes twice as long to get cases to trial in Surrey than any other Lower Mainland courthouses. Gordon noted the Surrey courthouse has been “notorious” for long delays since at least 1997. When the Crown prosecutor in the Ayers case argued
that “Surrey has always had resource issues” the judge said that cannot justify drawn-out delays. “While it may very well be that Surrey has fewer resources for number of charges sworn than other jurisdictions in Greater Vancouver, the province has a constitutional obligation to provide those resources,” Judge Gordon declared, pointing to a Supreme Court of Canada decision that states there is a point in time when the court system “will no longer tolerate delay based on the plea of inadequate resources.” In 2002, the provincial government closed down the Delta provincial courthouse, adding Delta’s 2,000 adult and youth criminal cases to Surrey’s 13,000. That brought the total number of cases above the maximum the Surrey courthouse was designed to accommodate, a problem then-Attorney General Geoff Plant said could be overcome through improved efficiencies. At the time the courthouse was closed, Delta Police Chief Jim Cessford warned cases would probably take longer to get to trial.

A composting facility similar to the Fraser Richmond Soil and Fibre composting facility pictured here will eventually be established in Surrey.
PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE
AN INVITATION TO A PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE FOR A BIKE PARK IN SOUTH NEWTON
FILE PHOTO BLACK PRESS
You are invited to a public open house to provide input on three possible locations for a children’s bike park that is to be located in the South Newton community. The three parks under consideration are Panorama Village Park, Bob Rutledge Park and Goldstone Park. The purpose of this Open House is to provide you with an opportunity to review and give input on three preliminary locations the City has been reviewing in partnership with motivated children and youth from the South Newton community. Staff will be on hand to receive community feedback and priorities. This information will help us determine a preferred location for the proposed facility. The Event will be held: Date: Wednesday, June 23, 2010 Time: 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Location: Panorama Village Park 14899 57 Avenue, Surrey, BC If you have any questions, please call 604 501-5050. We look forward to working closely with the neighbourhood to review potential locations for a bike park in the South Newton Community.
Region: To build facility in Surrey From page 1 One of the things people want is organic composting in each back yard. Costanzo said it’s a great idea, but meats or foods cooked with oil won’t compost properly in a back yard and would become food for rodents. The region has yet to build a composting facility for the city, and Costanzo wouldn’t say exactly where it would be located. However, the city owns a large parcel of property near the North Port Kells Waste Transfer Station
which is a likely candidate for siting. The city is asking people to get involved by attending the meetings and filling out a questionnaire at http://tinyurl.com/2wtldns. Information booths will also be set up at upcoming public events including: • June 19, 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the Whalley Community Festival at Central City Plaza; • June 19, Ocean Park Day at Ocean Park Community Association Hall; • July 1,Canada Day Celebrations at Cloverdale Amphitheatre.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK
HST AND THE LIBERALS
LETTERS
Friday June 18 2010
Wishing for a protest’s success
OUR PROVINCIAL government certainly has to get our revenue from somewhere and perhaps the HST is a reasonably fair and costeffective way of collecting taxes. However, I support the petition against the HST because of the under-handed way the legislation was introduced and passed into law. If a non-political expert on ethics can convince me that politicians have the moral right to mislead the electorate during an election and then govern in an autocratic manner once they are in power, then I am prepared to reconsider my position. The Liberals seem to believe that we, the voters, are incapable of understanding the fundamentals of government budgeting and good governance. Does it not then logically follow (in their minds at least) that this apparent inconvenience called democracy should be eliminated? Surely doing away with elections (and opposing views) would be an effective way of saving tax dollars. Perhaps our beneficent dictator would then be able to reduce the HST by one per cent…or even two per cent. Could this petition be a reality check for all politicians or is that too much to hope for? After all political integrity depends more on the memories and expectations of the voters than on the backroom political strategists. Even though there will be additional costs to be paid by each B.C. tax payer if the HST is actually rescinded, I’m more than willing to stub my financial toe in order to kick the provincial Liberals in their collective butt. I applaud all the volunteers, especially the ones who have no political party affiliation or personal self-interest, for making the first step of this extraordinary grassroots protest a success.

Quitting party is an act of weakness THE RECENT resignation of a Liberal MLA is a
good example of why voter turnout and getting young voters involved is difficult to impossible. When we were young, most of us had a short list of attributes we idealistically wanted to see in our political leaders. I took the best of individuals like Bobby Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., Che Guevara and Bobby Sands, who were inspirational and willing to stand up for what they believed in, regardless of the cost.
I realized quickly that those qualities were in short supply, and usually replaced with rhetoric, grandstanding, delicate egos and a lack of sticktoitiveness. So, another one bites the dust. It is not a sign of the political integrity, but rather it is a sign of selfishness, weakness, and opportunism. The great political act of quitting should be made seriously for reasons of principle, ideology, and current actions of a party – not because of any personal or political gain.
There can be no moral victory for such quitters, only a clear sign of opportunism at its worst. Some may rejoice in any such action because it fits within their own standard of vales and principals. Only a handful that I know of, chose to stay, stick it out, and regardless of the perceived consensus, support the party they joined willingly.

Clayton’s crowding conundrum I COULDN’T AGREE more with
A letter writer criticizes the design of homes and the crowding of new neighbourhoods such as Surrey’s Clayton Heights.
Frank Bucholtz’s wonderful and insightful column (Opinion, June 11.) He has truly hit the nail in the head when it comes to the Clayton area’s current state. The majority of basement suites in these insanely large box homes are being rented out to anyone seeing as shady landlords’ only goals are to satisfy their own pockets. Another eyesore that takes up way too much space in Clayton and all of Surrey are these ugly, teeny tiny town houses. It’s funny how they’re advertised as “two- or three-bedroom homes” since the main floor and upper floor are the size of bedrooms. They’re the spitting image of congested shoe boxes and file cabinets since you’re glued to nextdoor neighbours. And what is the strata council’s answer for such issues? Deal with it yourself, that’s it. Small wonder the majority of smart people buy single family homes where you actually can breathe fresh air rather than classless pollution. Kudos again to Frank for telling it like it is. Mike Brian, Surrey
Steve Fonyo no No need to drive far longer a hero to hit logging roads
RE: “STEVE FONYO: The people’s hero” Opinion, June 9.
I, for one, agree that Steve Fonyo be stripped of the Order of Canada. In case you or your readers aren’t aware and to quote directly from the application to nominate any Canadian for the Order of Canada: “From local citizens to national and international personalities, all Canadians are eligible for the Order of Canada – our country’s highest honour for lifetime achievement.” In my opinion, Steve simply no longer meets the requirement of lifetime achievement as outlined. This doesn’t negate his contribution to cancer research (and for that he can always be proud and I will always be grateful) but he is no longer my hero. Nobility and morality are also part of being a hero and I don’t see much of either in Steve’s media pursuit focusing on the belief he was wronged. If he truly understands the nature of the award perhaps he would/should continue to work on the betterment of himself, service to his community, country, and its citizens. T. Aylesworth Surrey
RE: “SURREY ROADS fail to keep up,” Letters, June 11. After driving through several other Lower Mainland areas, I certainly do agree that some of the Surrey roads are deplorable. As an example, wherever I drive along a Surrey road that has been dug up along the centre area, and repaved with a three-tofour-foot wide patch, the entire length of this patch job is extremely rough, and this can go on for several blocks. One good example is 96 Avenue, stretching east from Scott Road for sev-
eral blocks, where the road is rougher than many logging roads I drive on, and it is always the long patch job that is the problem. I can only wonder who is supervising this sloppy work. I have also emailed Surrey’s engineering department regarding the terrible job they did on 140 Street from Fraser Highway to 100 Avenue. Across from the new outpatient hospital, the city put a unnecessary and ridiculous dog’s leg into a straight road, and have spent two years digging up this stretch of road.
The repaving job is pathetic, and the entire stretch should be totally repaved. As usual, Surrey’s engineering department doesn’t have the common courtesy to reply to their emails. They don’t seem to care about public opinion, so I thought the next step is to write a letter to The Leader, where hopefully many will read about this awful road, and will also complain to the city. Perhaps with enough complaints, they will eventually wake up. Derek Coughtrey, Surrey

committee with representatives from the province, TransLink, ICBC, Environment Canada, Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley Regional District (FVRD) will meet June 22 to make a recommendation. The case for continuing AirCare has become weaker over the years. Vehicle pollution control advances have greatly cut air emissions from newer cars, which are now exempt from testing for their first seven years. As a result, only half of all cars on the road in the Lower Mainland are now subject to AirCare. Of the vehicles tested, 88 per cent pass. The 5,000 vehicles per month that fail are denied insurance until they get a tune-up and a re-test. Smog-forming emissions from vehicles in the Lower Mainland have fallen 78 per cent since the program started in 1992, according to AirCare operations manager Dave Gourley. He said 50 per cent of the reduction would have happened with or without AirCare as a result of the trend to newer vehicles, but the other 28 per cent is attributed to the program. Test fees collected
from motorists – usually $45 every two years – add up to $20 million a year and recover all the costs of running the program, which TransLink oversees. FVRD board chair Patricia Ross said she wants to see the report before taking a position. She said the program was to be terminated at some point as many people switch to clean technologies, like hybrids and electric vehicles. “I’m not sure that’s happened to the extent they anticipated,” Ross said. Surrey Coun. Linda Hepner, acting chair of Metro Vancouver’s environment committee, said she would likely support an extension of the program. B.C. Automobile Association spokesman Trace Acres said he hopes the committee carefully weighs the environmental benefits and economic costs, and avoids making an emotional or political decision. But he said the program may do more than improve air quality as older vehicles that have to pass AirCare tests are likely better maintained as a result and possibly safer to their owners and others on the road.

‘Crucial’ evidence destroyed: Lawyer Car in fatal crash was scrapped before Carol Berner was charged with a crime, defence argues by Tracy Holmes A “CRUCIAL piece of
evidence” in accused impaired driver Carol Berner’s defence was destroyed while she was under investigation but before she was ever charged with a crime, her lawyer said Wednesday. David Tarnow was referring to the 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue Berner was driving on May 17, 2008, the day she struck and killed fouryear-old Alexa Middelaer as the youngster fed a
horse with her aunt at the side of a Ladner road. Surrey Provincial Court Judge Peder Gulbransen heard this week how the Oldsmobile was inspected on May 21, 2008, for mechanical defects that could explain the crash, which Berner claims occurred after the vehicle suddenly swerved out of control. But while the car was examined by a mechanic who is frequently called on by the police department, Berner was only offered a two-week

window in which to do the same, between May 30 and June 13, 2008. She wasn’t arrested in connection with the crash that killed Alexa until Dec. 10 of that year. “It appears that the Delta police decided they could destroy the vehicle, give it away for scrap, before Ms. Berner could have her counsel take a look at it,” Tarnow said outside court following the 10th day of testimony. “Just before she’s charged, they destroy the car,” Tarnow said. “A

lot of money was spent on this case. It would’ve taken just a few dollars… so I could have my mechanic take a look at it. “It was important for her.” Delta Const. John Merryman told Gulbransen Wednesday that he saw the car on three occasions, the last time on Oct. 2, 2008, at a scrapyard in New Westminster. The collision analyst was also on site at the May 21 mechanical inspection, and on May 22, when the car’s sensing diagnostic module was removed by police. In cross-examination, Tarnow asked Merryman if the officer ever suggested to investigators it might be prudent to preserve the car in case Berner is charged, so she would have a chance to look at it. Merryman responded the thought never occurred to him. “A crucial piece of evidence in this case was never available for defence to look at,” Tarnow said. “It never came to mind?” Merryman noted the car was in storage for several months before it was sent for scrap. Also, at the scrapyard, he was only tasked to look at the car
for any missed evidence or personal belongings. “I don’t know how it was never available,” he said. Earlier Wednesday, the court heard the balance of testimony from the undercover officer who was tasked to befriend Berner as part of the investigation. In a video of one of 16 Project Angel scenarios played out over two months, Berner tells the officer – who cannot be identified by court order – the crash is “something that is going to be with me forever.” Berner explains how she had a panic attack when the car went out of control, and agrees the attack could have been brought on by having too much to drink. “That could’ve been part of it, but I think also a part of it was the car went out of control. That’s what was freaking me out,” she tells the officer. The officer testified after the video that Berner later was obviously concerned about the potential legal bill. The officer offered comfort, at which time Berner “made a comment to me that I was actually a better friend than her best friend,” she said.

A “TURF WAR” between police and security agencies
and a “cascading series of errors” kept them from acting on intelligence to stop known Sikh terrorists from placing bombs on Air India flights leaving Canada a quarter century ago. Those are among the findings of a long-awaited report into the 1985 bombing of Air India Flight 182, which killed all 329 passengers and crew over the Atlantic Ocean off Ireland and two baggage handlers at a Japanese airport. Both bombs were placed in Vancouver and three key suspects in the case were from B.C., including one prominent Sikh businessman. Supreme Court Justice John Major, who headed the four-year inquiry, said the tragedy had “been somehow relegated outside the Canadian consciousness.” His damning 4,000-page report was handed down Thursday and said the errors, incompetence and inattention before the bombings was “sadly mirrored” for years by governments’ and institutions’ actions in the aftermath and in seeking to bring those responsible to justice. Poor training, complacency and lack of awareness of Sikh terrorism all left Canada vulnerable. Authorities missed chances to get evidence about the conspiracy and when they did, they often failed to preserve it. The collective failures culminated in the 2005 acquittal of two men charged with murder in connection with the bombings – Ripudaman Singh Malik and Ajaib Singh Bagri – after a B.C. Supreme Court Justice ruled witnesses who testified were not credible. For more extensive details on the report and its findings, check www.surreyleader.com

Former candidate for Newton-North Delta makes unsuccessful suit by Kevin Diakiw
A FORMER Green Party candidate for Newton-North Delta has lost his libel action against the party for suggesting his comments could be viewed as antiSemitic. In 2008, the Green Party of Canada removed John Shavluk as a candidate, after an 2006 internet post attributed to him was made public. The party sent out a release indicating “Shavluk will not be the candidate for the party in NewtonNorth Delta, following revelations that he made comments in 2006 on an online discussion forum that could be construed as anti-Semitic.” Shavluk sued the Green Party and its leader Elizabeth May. Last week, Justice Carol Ross found in favour of May and the party. “In the result, I have concluded that statements in both
publication was one of qualified privilege and that there was no evidence of malice.” She ruled that Shavluk will pick up the legal costs. Shavluk said Monday the ruling was “a joke and a travesty.”
“I’m 53 years old and a military veteran, and I’m beside myself,” Shavluk said. “I’m looking at bankruptcy with legal fees, like they told me when this thing started.” He became aware
of additional comments made by May just after last week’s ruling, and he’s not happy. “Obviously, if I can raise funds, I’m going to be going after her until I win,” Shavluk said.

Shoppers who don’t stay across the line long enough (48 hours for a $400 exemption and 78 hours for $750) will have to pay HST and duty on purchases in the U.S. NDP finance critic Bruce Ralston predicts businesses in Surrey will be hurt by the exemption. Some consumers will find it attractive, he said, particularly at a time of anger over the HST. “It’s another unanticipated consequence of the HST,” Ralston said. Each county has a different local sales tax, so amounts charged vary from 7.5 to 9.5 per cent, with stores in Whatcom County charging 8.5 per cent. The tax isn’t charged on meals, lodging or other services. While some Washington retailers are salivating over a possible flood of B.C. consumers heading south, the reaction to the change across the line is mixed. Whatcom County stands to lose at least $1 million a year on the county’s share of the tax from B.C. residents and officials there say that could trigger cuts to local services. Bellingham’s Chamber of Commerce and city council have asked state legislators to consider repealing the exemption.

Surrey pastor led a double life Parole documents detail obsession with pornography by Dan Ferguson
Pacific Rim Cabinets Presents
June 26, 2010 • 10am-4pm
! s i c o u i l e D
WHEN HE WAS the pastor of the Church of Nazarene in Surrey’s Guildford neighbourhood, Larry Robert Collins led what a parole board document calls a “double life” of ministering to his congregation while also spending four to five hours a day viewing pornography on the Internet. The 45-year-old married father of three would later describe the sexually explicit materials he downloaded as his “friend” adding “nothing else mattered” during his marathon viewing sessions. Collins progressed to creating his own pornography, manufacturing “four or five” homemade videos featuring bondage and rape scenes cobbled together from images downloaded from the internet. One video featured a teenage girl from another part of the country. Collins made up a video that showed the young girl “inviting others to abduct, sexually assault and harm [her]” accord-
ing to documents released by the National Parole Board of Canada. As described by the BC Integrated Child Exploitation Unit, the video included sexually explicit scenes interspersed with photographs of the teen girl. Collins posted the girl’s name and hometown online and created online accounts impersonating the victim and encouraging people to visit a web link where the video was displayed. Police said the child was not a member of the church congregation and there is no evidence to suggest any other young people were targeted by Collins, who had no criminal record. The girl was said to be emotionally traumatized by the incident but otherwise unharmed. Police in the victim’s province traced the video to B.C. and to Collins, who had recently moved to the west coast from Eastern Canada with his wife and three children to become pastor of the church. When he confessed to creat-
ing the video, Collins was fired from his post and stripped of his credentials by the district superintendent for the church in B.C. and the Yukon. In December of 2009, he was sentenced to 15 months in jail followed by three years probation after pleading guilty to one count of possessing child pornography. Collins was originally charged with distribution of child pornography and possession of child pornography but Crown prosecutors stayed the charge of distribution. Now Collins is trying to win early release from prison. According to the written decision released by the parole board, Collins failed on his first application in May because he has yet to complete a sex offender counselling program. The written reasons for judgment note a psychological assessment found Collins, though a well-behaved inmate, remains “vague” about his increasingly deviant fantasies of bondage and rape. dferguson@surreyleader.com

Grads: Less than half work as nurse practitioners From page 16 with an extra two years of study. But there aren’t nearly enough jobs in B.C. for them. Less than half of the more than 180 homegrown B.C. graduates now work in B.C. as nurse practitioners. Some of the rest are unemployed. Others work as registered nurses below their level of qualification. And still others leave B.C. to take nurse practitioner jobs in places like Ontario and the U.S. “It’s just heart-breaking to think they’re so needed here and we’re losing that resource,” Guengerich said. The latest disappointment is the case of Abbotsford nurse practitioner Janet Baillies. She was in UBC’s first graduating class of nurse practitioners in 2005 – posing for photos with her classmates beside then-health minister Colin Hansen. A grant from the Fraser Health Authority to support enhanced family practices allowed the Clearbrook Family Practice Clinic to hire Bailies. Like other nurse practitioners, she prescribed most medicines, ordered tests and handled roughly three-quarters of the types of patients who would normally see one of the clinic’s family doctors, freeing them to concentrate on more complex cases. The government showcased Baillies as a success story. But permanent funding never materialized and cash-strapped Fraser Health ended the grant to the clinic.
Baillies lost her job in April, despite patient protests and a Facebook group started in her defence. “It’s disappointing,” she said. “You build up a practice – they had about 500 patients – and it came to a screeching halt.” The Clearbrook clinic has instead hired another family doctor, who will bill the province much more on a fee-for-service basis than a nurse practitioner salary. Guengerich said short-term financial considerations are keeping nurse practitioners sidelined, despite the advantages. “The real savings of a nurse practitioner are going to be realized 10 or 20 years down the road, not immediately.” NDP health critic Adrian Dix says the government squandered its investment in training nurse practitioners and the opportunity to improve health care. “We’ve spent quite a bit of money training people for other jurisdictions,” he said. Ontario, the national leader in the field, has 1,600 nurse practitioners registered – 10 times as many as B.C. Meanwhile, Dix noted, hundreds of thousands of B.C. residents have no family doctor. He said there’s little sign yet of an end to the yo-yo funding pattern that has left Baillies unemployed. “Fraser Health decided it was not in its financial interests to continue,” he said. “They didn’t want to save money for the ministry of health. This, in a nutshell, is the problem that is going on across
Fatal crash Surrey man dies in Vancouver Black Press A 59-YEAR-OLD Surrey man was killed Saturday in
Vancouver after the car he was driving crossed the centre line and collided head-on with a southbound vehicle in the 4900 block of Oak Street. Police said a 51-year-old female passenger in the car suffered minor injuries and the 53-year-old female driver of the second vehicle was taken to hospital with serious injuries but was expected to survive. At the early stage in the investigation, a VPD statement said, speed and alcohol did not appear to be factors in the collision. The VPD Collision Investigation Unit is appealing to anyone who may have witnessed the collision to contact investigators at 604-717-3012.
“We’ve spent quite a bit of money training people for other jurisdictions.” Adrian Dix Adrian Dix British Columbia.” Under questioning in the Legislature in late May, health minister Kevin Falcon said he’s “not proud” of
what happened to Baillies or the use of nurse practitioners generally. “I do not believe government has done as good a job as we could have,” he said.
“When we created the nurse practitioners, the truth is that we hadn’t particularly figured out how and where they could fit into the system really well.” Health authorities were given $63 million in grants and ordered to make it happen. But that failed to ensure stable funding, said Falcon, who vows to fix the problem. “We are not going to have them funded on a temporary basis with grants,” he said. “They are going to be included in the
primary care delivery of services in a more permanent manner.” The province could let nurse practitioners bill the Medical Services Plan on a feefor-service basis like doctors. But Falcon said that’s not something he’s contemplating. He said he wants to shift away from “transactional” medicine to a more holistic approach and fee-for-service encourages practitioners to spend less time with each patient in order to see more of them.
In Fraser Health Fraser Health directly employs 26 nurse practitioners in local hospitals or community care clinics. That includes six new positions created this year, including two in White Rock and one each in Surrey, Royal Columbian Hospital, Agassiz and Chilliwack. Officials were unable to say how many nurse practitioners who were working at private clinics under enhanced family practice grants have lost work due to funding cuts.

Richmond charged businesses 3.68 times more and Surrey came in at 3.54, while the lowest rates could be found in Chilliwack at 2.60, Langley City at 2.85 and
Abbotsford at 2.92. The gap between business and residential rates has widened in virtually every city in the region since 2003, when the CFIB began tracking it. “Businesses are at the breaking point,” Bonney said. “They’re coming out of the recession after enduring two decades of unreasonable property tax increases.” He said cities continue to increase spending – often in areas that don’t involve paying for
core services. The province has already capped how high port and railway property taxes can go relative to residential rates and the CFIB would like business to get similar treatment. Cities that have set non-legislated goals include Toronto, which aims to bring its gap down to 2.5. But Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan says a cap to ratchet down business property taxes would either drive residential tax rates higher or force cities to slash services.

The lobby group representing small- and mid-sized business says that’s too much and it’s calling on cities to rein in business property tax rates voluntarily, until they are no more than double what home owners pay. “If municipalities don’t, we’re calling on the provincial government to introduce legislation to cap the gap at two to one,” said CFIB provincial affairs

Leak grants ending
THE INTRODUCTION of the Har-
monized Sales Tax (HST) spells the end for a grant that assists B.C. homeowners repairing water damage. The grant, for homeowners in the coastal climate zone repairing building envelope failure, is based on the amount of provincial sales tax paid on repair materials. As of July 1, both materials and labour will be subject to the 12 per cent HST. Water damage repairs completed by June 30 may still be eligible for a grant. Applications will be accepted up to 4 p.m. June 30, and must include proof of PST payment or an estimate of PST paid up to that date. Strata councils, co-operatives, and owners of duplexes and single-family homes in the coastal climate zone may be eligible. Investor-owned properties, builders and warranty companies are not. The program was introduced in 1998 in response to the leaky condo crisis. Application forms for the PST grant are available at the website of the Homeowner Protection
office, www.hpo.bc.ca/consumer/ pst.php
Property tax deferment available As the property tax payment deadline approaches in B.C. communities, the provincial government is reminding homeowners with children of the option to defer their taxes. The program was included in February’s provincial budget. It allows homeowners with dependent children under 18 to defer property taxes on the family’s principal residence. A similar deferment program is available for seniors, and a financial hardship deferment program introduced in response to the recession is still available for 2010 property taxes. Tax payments can be deferred as long as you live in the home and continue to qualify, but must be paid along with administration fees before property is sold or transferred. After deducting the hom-

Football BC adopts policy, guidelines for treatment of concussions
Keeping their heads in the game by Larry Pruner
ATHLETES WHO get their bells rung are ringing alarm bells with Football BC. The province’s amateur gridiron governing body, whose membership includes the B.C. Community Football Association and the BC High School Football Association (BCHSFA), announced May 28 the adoption of a new policy regarding concussion education and treatment guidelines, effective immediately.
“...we don’t allow players to play or practice with a concussion.” Yeera Sami
Football BC is the first provincial sport organization in Canada to adopt a policy specific to concussions and brain injuries. That policy requires: • all coaches participate in a yearly education program prior the season; • parents and youth athletes sign an informed consent form annually acknowledging the risk of head injury prior to practice or competition; • an athlete suspected of having sustained a concussion or head injury is removed from play; • and an athlete who has thus been removed from play must receive written clearance from a doctor before returning. Yeera Sami, president of Clo-
FILE PHOTO / THE LEADER
Coaches, players and parents are being educated on the treatment of concussions through a policy adopted recently by Football BC. verdale Community Football, says the policy is “way overdue” but questioned the procedure in implementing it. “They surprised us all,” he said. “They didn’t go through a consul-
tation process. They just sent it to the media, and to us. Now we are obliged to follow the mandate.” But Sami doesn’t question the need for a policy. “We all need to be aware, and
do our due diligence, so we don’t allow players to play or practice with a concussion,” he said. “We’ve already sent e-mails to our parents and coaches, asking them to read and follow the policy.”
Sami said concussions haven’t been an issue in the past in Cloverdale, saying the association already keeps its young players on the sidelines when suspected of having a concussion. But he noted the new policy will ensure everyone involved with the game will have a better understanding of the issue. Many of the Football BC rule changes regarding concussions stem from the U.S. National High School Federation, which serves as one of the BCHSFA governing bodies, said BCHSFA president and New Westminster Hyacks senior head coach Farhan Lalji. “Our challenge is that in the U.S., trainers get paid and there are certification levels for trainers that enable them to be recognized as health care professionals,” Lalji said. “I think head injuries are on the rise in all contact sports. It’s a simple case of bigger, stronger, faster. Head shots and subsequent concussions was one of the biggest issues in the NHL this season.” Lalji believes it’s good that all BCHSFA coaches are on the same page regarding concussions “so that [they] can be dealt with better and long-term impacts are minimized,” and hopes parents don’t hit the panic button and shy away from signing consent forms because of the risk involved in a collision sport. “Head injuries are a very hotbutton topic,” Lalji said. “The forms are designed to educate parents, not scare them. Knowledge is power. Keep in mind it is a process. It won’t be perfect overnight but we’ll get there.”

Opposition fills the net in Rebels losses Surrey’s Junior B team drops two games in 24 hours by Rick Kupchuk GIVING UP 30 goals in a little more
than 24 hours, the Surrey Rebels dropped a pair of West Coast Junior B Lacrosse League games early this week. The Rebels fell just short Sunday night in Coquitlam, dropping a 15-13 decision to the Adanacs. Monday night at home in the Cloverdale Arena, they were handed a 15-7 setback by the Port Coquitlam Saints. Surrey was down 6-0 early in the second period Monday night before they managed to net their first goal of the game, a powerplay goal from Tyler Voisey two min-
utes into the frame. Zack Peach and Max Richards each tallied two goals and an assist, with Matt Clarke, Trent Wittall and Sean O’Beirn also scoring. Brad Olson with three assists and Voisey with a pair of helpers also had three-point games. Port Coquitlam had period leads of 5-0 and 13-5, and outshot the Rebels 64-46. Surrey was an impressive four-for-nine on the powerplay, but the Saints responded with three powerplay goals on eight opportunities. Sunday nights contest saw four lead changes, and the Rebels erase a four-goal deficit late in the sec-
ond period to knot the score 10-10 after 40 minutes. Coquitlam opened the third period with a pair of breakaway goals, taking a lead they wouldn’t give up. Three times Surrey pulled to within one, and three times the Adanacs responded with a goal. Richards with three goals and a pair of assists led the Rebels scoring, with Olson also having a five-point night on a goal and four helpers. Trent Wittall, Scott O’Coin and Conor Campbell netted two each. Brad Prance, Voisey and Peach completed the scoring. The Rebels saw their record (won-lost-tied) fall to 5-7-1 and are in seventh place in 11-team
league. Eight teams will qualify for the playoffs. The Rebels next game is on Monday at 8 p.m. in the Cloverdale Arena against the 7-3 Burnaby Lakers. Q Rebels netminder Jeff Geyer is ranked fourth among WCJLL netminders with a .879 save percentage. He leads the league in both shots faced ( (422) and shots stopped (371). Brad Olson sits third in the league scoring race with 16 goals and 19 assists for 35 points. He trailed only Ryan Chan of the New Westminster Salmonbellies (24-2448) and Cam Patterson of the Port Moody Thunder (23-19-42).

ELLIE KING, artistic director and
founder of the Royal Canadian Theatre Company, makes no apologies for presenting popular – and populist – theatre. “There’s nothing wrong with entertainment,” said the wellknown actor and director, noted for her past personifications of Willy Russell’s Shirley Valentine and as ‘B.C.’s Panto Queen’ for her much-loved Christmastime productions at Surrey Arts Centre. And she feels that the world’s most famous playwright would have been quick to agree. “The bottom line with Shakespeare was will people like it, will people come to see it?” she said. “If they didn’t, there wouldn’t have been a theatre or a company of actors for very long.” She acknowledges her own company is on something of a roll lately, what with its wellreceived production of Robin Hood in December, a successful Shakespeare-based academic program for students aged 13 to 18 just wrapping up and, waiting in the wings, the eagerly awaited return of summer theatre to White Rock with No Sex Please, We’re British (Coast Capital Playhouse, July 13 to Aug. 1). “This year will be the breakout year for the RCTC,” she predicted. “We’ve been bubbling away for a while now, garnering support from all sorts of luminaries, not the least of which

A warm and chili fundraiser for Children’s Hospital Surrey-based Coast Capital Savings recently held their second-annual chilli cook-off at the Central City administration offices. Employees raised more than $900 in support of Children’s Hospital’s Miracle Weekend.
Tall order for Surrey man SURREY’S PAUL RICHARDS was among 36 volunteers from
throughout B.C. who were honoured with the Order of St. John in a formal ceremony at Government House on June 5. The event was presided by Lieutenant-Governor Steven Point. For almost a century, members of St. John Ambulance have served the people of British Columbia, continuing a tradition of caring that has its roots in the Crusades. The 2,000 members of British Columbia and Yukon St. John Ambulance provide close to a quarter-million hours of community service annually, and the organization trains more than 100,000 people per year in emergency response and lifesaving techniques. “I am filled with admiration for all who voluntarily give of themselves, in the cause of preventing unnecessary suffering, deaths and disability while inspiring great trust in the good offices of this most historic order,” said Point. “The work that includes youth and relief programs as well as disaster support and a wealth of other services is the outward expression of the humane doctrine on which the order was founded more than a thousand years ago.”

Cool cucumbers come calling greenscene
CAN YOU imagine a salad without cucumbers? Don’t you love a cool crisp cucumber sandwich on a hot day, or fresh cucumbers in vinegar? And what would a grilled cheese sandwich or hamburger be without pickles? Well, cucumbers are just about the most popular vegetable in the home garden (remember: Tomatoes are fruits). They have been cultivated both in India and China for about 3,000 years. Columbus is generally given credit for introducing them to North America. Thank you Christopher. Early June, when the weather turns around, is the time they should be planted. I know this because of all the folks who planted too early and are now coming in to garden shops to replace their first and second crops which have already died of cold and disease. Cucumbers are warm weather plants and should only be set out when the weather warms up and stays warm.
Brian Minter
Cold, wet ground is no place for cucumbers. For best results, they should be planted in hills or raised beds with excellent drainage. I always dig plenty of manure down deep, about twelve inches below the ground, to give those roots some place to go that is damp and rich in humus when the weather gets hot. Bitter-free cucumbers can only be grown if the plants have access to moisture, especially during the fruit-bearing cycle. If you seed cucumbers, they seem to take off very quickly once the weather warms up, but transplants need a little more care. Greenhouse grown transplants need at
least four to five days of acclimatization before they can be set out in the ground, and even then they need some protection from the elements. Old shingles or shakes are ideal because they break the wind. Incidentally, be very careful not to disturb the rootball of young plants because the roots are extremely tender, and the plants will suffer a severe setback if the roots are damaged. Young plants are also a prime target for striped and spotted cucumber beetles, so transplants should be dusted with Rotenone or covered with hotcaps or cheesecloth. Keep that cucumber patch moving to a different location in your garden each year. Wet spells in the summer, or watering too frequently overhead often cause “alternaria leaf spot,” As with any disease prevention program, healthy, well-fertilized plants are less susceptible to these problems, but keeping that foliage dry is really important. Copper is an effective
fungicide for controlling this problem, but you must act quickly if the disease appears. Many experienced gardeners like the old-fashioned National Pickling and Straight 8 varieties. If you have been having success with these older strains, then stay with them, but there is a wealth of newer varieties on the market and each has its own unique characteristics. For example, Cross Country produces outstanding dark green pickling cucumbers with great interior quality. When it comes to slicing cucumbers, it is Burpless all the way. If you like the long English types, but don’t have a greenhouse handy to keep out those pesky bees who want to pollinate the self-pollinating varieties, then try Japanese Burpless or the more traditional slicing cucumber, Sweet Slice
(also Burpless), or types like Orient Express and Burpless Supreme. The great feature of burpless cucumbers is the fact that you can eat the skin without fear of an upset tummy, and every fruit is bitter free. Instead of growing these varieties on the ground, take some garden trellis and make an A-frame shape so the plants can grow up one side and down the other.
It makes a delightful garden feature, and it is one sure way to keep the slugs away from your cucumbers. If you have limited space, you can grow Bush Crop in containers, but be sure to use at least a fourteen-inch tub and mix plenty of sterilized compost in with the potting soil before you plant. If you would really like something different, try Lemon Cucumbers which grow the size, shape and colour of lemons, but still taste like crispy, juicy cucumbers.
Cucumbers are fun, fast and easy to grow as long as we get a little cooperation from the weather. Remember: Use raised beds and black plastic or trellis frames, try some of the new varieties and keep the roots moist during the hottest part of summer. Once planted, you will be enjoying that first cucumber sandwich in about 40 to 50 days. Brian Minter is a master gardener who operates Minter Gardens in Chilliwack.

He has also shown that immigrants are at a disadvantage with respect to heart health. Lear is working to develop new prevention strategies for Indo-Canadians and other ethnic groups. Recent funding will help him learn how heart health changes in different ethnic groups and create communities that support heart health.
