Refugees face rough start in their new homes Saddled with federal loans, many struggle to get by by Kevin Diakiw FOR ALMOST half his life, he had been liv-

ing in a refugee camp in Somalia. This year, humanitarian workers found 35-year-old Abdelkadir Ali Amin and alerted the United Nations of his plight. The United Nations Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees, of which Canada is a signed member, defines who is a refugee and decides whether individuals must leave their circumstances for their own safety. Like all government-assisted refugees, Amin was referred to a Canadian Visa agent abroad, where he was screened and cleared for travel. Before he could leave, he had to sign a $5,000 loan agreement to pay for his trip to this country, as well as cover the cost of a medical exam when he arrived. Now Amin lives in a Newton basement suite, existing on a refugee support income of $720 a month. Of that, $500 goes to rent, and another $81 goes to a bus pass to get him to school and back so he can learn English. Amin one day hopes to resume his trade as a carpenter. The remaining $100 or so goes toward food and other essentials. He says he’s been here “a few months” which means he’ll receive a request for payment on his federal loan in about three months. Amin’s monthly payments will be close to $100. Defaults on payments go to a collection agency, however, many refugees mistakenly believe their Canadian citizenship hangs in the balance. Canada is the only country in the world to charge interest on those loans. The U.S. provides interest-free loans, and many European countries favour the grant process. Surrey Coun. Judy Villeneuve described charging interest on the loans as a national embarrassment, and she believes the country should simply grant the refugees the See CITY OF SURREY page 4

City of Surrey: Wants loans changed to grants From page 3 funds, rather than force them into dire financial straits. The nation agrees, as Villeneuve received support for that initiative from the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) last month. Amin is here alone, but a recent study of refugees in Surrey showed many or most are underfeeding their families in order to pay back the loans, which are anywhere from $5,000 to $10,000. Some want to get the money paid back quickly, believing that if they don’t, they’ll be sent back to a refugee camp. So, young families often go hungry to cover the loans. Villeneuve said Amin’s story is not uncommon, as many refugees are at risk of homelessness, send their kids to work instead of school, and remain at the brink of starvation. In this city, the problem is particularly preva-

lent, as Surrey draws the most global refugees of any city in the province. Out of the 885 government-assisted refugees that came to B.C. last year, 360, or 41 per cent, made Surrey their home. Affordable housing is cited as the reason. “It puts significant pressure on the local neighbourhoods, the schools, health care, libraries, other community agencies,” according Chris Friesen, director of settlement services for the Immigrant Services Society of B.C. Almost half (41 per cent) of the refugees coming here are age 18 and under, meaning the impact on schools is significant. Most don’t speak English. Compounding that problem is many kids are malnourished, as their food money goes toward the federal loan. “Over 90 per cent of the refugees that get these loans repay them. The issue is, at what cost?” Friesen said.

Where they’re from From 2005-2009, these are the top ﬁve countries of origin of governmentassisted refugees who located in Surrey: Q Myanmar Q Somalia Q Iraq Q Sudan Q Afghanistan – Source: Immigrant Services Society of B.C.

Increasingly, more of refugees’ income support is being used to pay for shelter, leaving little money for food, other essentials and loan payments. “It poses significant challenges for people who are living below the poverty

line,” said Friesen. He notes most refugees don’t know what they’re signing when they come here, so they believe their stay is contingent on a speedy repayment. “If you’ve been in a camp for 10 to 20 years, you’re going to sign anything to get out of it,” Friesen said. “It seems to me we could be doing things differently.” Friesen said the City of Surrey’s motion to change federal loans into grants ensures we are not penalizing people who were invited here and went through extreme hardship prior to that. Villeneuve said she’s pleased the motion at the FCM passed, and she will now begin lobbying local Members of Parliament to act on it. She’s been working with Conservative MP Nina Grewal (Fleetwood-Port Kells), who sits on the federal immigration committee.

Canada is far too welcoming WELCOME TO Canada.

You don’t have to go through legal immigration or landed immigrant status; all you have to do is jump in a freighter, a frigate sampan, a Chinese junket or a canoe or rowboat and go offshore of Canada. We will meet you there with our navy and give you protected escort to one of our harbours and we will be ready for you with temporary housing, and ambulances ready

to take you to a hospital if you need treatment. We will then send you to a camp where you will be processed through our system to eventually stay here, just like the last boat. It costs us over $100,000 to be processed for the first year. We then help you find a job and give you accommodation and welfare until you get established. It’s not that we are not compassionate or

humane but we should not be allowing you to settle in Canada when money you end up earning here will go back to your homeland to support your agendas that cause more women, children and peoples of your country to be killed. Maybe we should adopt the Australian way of settling similar problems. Ross Woloshyn, Surrey

Good Samaritan, wagging tails

WHEN THE TREASURER of our dog club saw some papers strewn in the alley behind her home and realized that five hours earlier she had driven off with a packet of deposits – cash and cheques from club members – left on the roof of her car, she was devastated. This wasn’t just any money. Our club, Paws 2 Dance, has been raising money for three years to stage a first-of-its-kind theatrical production involving dancing dogs and indoor kiteflyers. We hope to be able to raise money to support our operating costs and to give some of our profits to Critter Care Wildlife Society, located in Langley. We are close to the big night, Nov. 6, and every cent is needed to pay for the venue – Bell Performing Arts Centre – as well as for costumes, technicians, set construction, make-up, and rehearsal space. The loss of nearly $2,700 was a blow. Immediately, she papered the neighbourhood with flyers asking for help in finding the money, to no avail. Imagine the jubilation and relief we felt when we discovered someone had found the deposit packet, taken it to our bank, and deposited every cent into our account. Although this person chose to remain anonymous, we want to

What’s the NDP plan? THIS WEEK’S statement by NDP leader Carole James that she’ll vote against the HST and all the jobs and economic benefits it will bring to B.C. is only half the answer to what would happen under a Jamesled government. B.C.’s businesses and the hundreds of thousands of workers who depend on them for their paycheques need to know the NDP’s HST plan. James needs to come clean on how she will make up for the revenues that will be lost in scrapping the HST. The NDP has been clear in its opposition to

Valley needs a railway

the job-creating tax but anything but clear on their HST plans. Will the NDP cut health and education spending? Will they increase the provincial debt by billions and raise increase income taxes and user fees? Do they plan to rehire hundreds of tax collectors to reintroduce the PST? So far we’ve yet to hear any real commitment, plan, or proposal from James and the NDP. The business community has been calling for the implementation of HST for years. James’ new anti-HST position is a blow for advocates

of economic stability, investment and job creation. James said she was committed to “doing things differently” and would “work with B.C. business to promote trade and open markets” and would “support small business by maintaining a competitive tax environment.” Her opposition to the HST makes it clear that “competitive tax environments” and “open markets” are off the table. Philip Hochstein, president, B.C. Independent Contractors and Businesses Association

We hope you will contact us. Gail Walsh, president Paws 2 Dance www.paws2dance.com

The HST will be good for business WHILE WE UNDERSTAND the frustration of many British

Columbians regarding the way the HST was implemented, it’s worth taking the long view of how the tax will benefit this and upcoming generations of British Columbians. The HST helps us to pass on a more competitive province to our children and grandchildren by stabilizing the B.C. businesses that keep our families employed. B.C. businesses and jobs are stabilized when tax reform like the HST lowers businesses expenses and improves opportunities for new investment. For example, the cost to transport goods has already decreased because the seven per-cent PST portion of the HST on every shipping receipt can now be recovered by businesses. Savings are not limited to a few big businesses; savings will be seen on the purchase of a new stove for a restaurant, a new truck for a construction company and a new treadmill for your local gym. No question about it. The HST is good for business. And that means the HST is good for B.C. jobs. John Winter Chair, Smart Tax Alliance

THIS IS REGARDING a recent fire in

Clayton Heights. I have sent numerous emails to the city warning of the potential danger of building houses too close together. Experts such as engineers at UBC have also warned that the houses are too close together and fires as well as earthquakes will cause more damage and loss of life because of this. The city cannot have a case of deniability on this. They are allowing this to happen all over Surrey, reducing side setbacks when they should not be. They have been warned many times. Many houses were damaged because of one fire. When will the city start listening to the experts and not greedy developers?

Two women attacked in Whalley

You are invited to the 11TH ANNIVERSARY GALA OF HOPE

Man approached them from behind Black Press ONE MAN is believed responsible for two attacks on

women in Surrey Monday night. Around 10:40 p.m., an 18-year-old woman was attacked as she walked along the 9900 block of 138 Street. A man approached her from behind, grabbed her around the shoulders and pushed her against a wall. The woman fended him off and he fled towards the King George SkyTrain Station. A few minutes later, south of the King George

they didn’t have to be any more specific than checking yes or no on a form that asked “have you ever been convicted of a criminal offence for which a pardon has not been granted?” The municipality later learned that Gaudry had been jailed on multiple counts of sexual assault six years earlier, but he was allowed to keep his job. Under his full legal name of Cleo Faus Gaudry, he pleaded guilty in August of 1995 to nine counts of sexual assault and was sentenced to three-and-a-half years by a Prince George Provincial Court judge. The crimes were committed while Gaudry was working as an administrator of the District of Houston, a small community of 4,000 in northwest B.C. At the time, a Houston newspaper quoted a senior RCMP officer as saying that some of the charges involved young people. Some of the details of the court case cannot be reported under a court-ordered ban, still in effect, on publication of any information that could identify a victim. In 2003, The Leader learned about the sexual assault sentence but chose not to report it because a check of court records showed no sex-related charges against Gaudry since he finished his prison term. “I paid my debt to society,” Gaudry told the newspaper. When The Leader spoke to Delta Mayor Lois Jackson in 2003, she expressed surprise at the details of Gaudry’s criminal record but declined to comment further. The next year, the rules governing disclosure of past criminal records by prospective Delta civic employees were tightened to require would-be civic workers to

be, like swimming pools, school grounds, daycare centres or playgrounds. He is never to be in the company of someone under 14 without another adult present. Gaudry can’t own “any device capable of storing, receiving, or transmitting photographic material or movies,” and he is not allowed to use the Internet. The alleged offence occurred between June 1 and Aug. 31 in 1973. The Manitoba court file lists the matter as a “domestic violence” case. Gaudry’s next court appearance in Winnipeg is set for Dec. 14. In March of 2009, Gaudry quit as Delta’s director of engineering after police searched an office at the municipal hall and a house in North Delta as part of a child pornography investigation. He was charged with one count of possession of child pornography and one count of accessing child pornography. His trial on those charges has yet to begin. Gaudry was allowed to go free on the Delta case on $10,000 bail with no cash deposit (an arrangement where a suspect agrees that he owes the government the bail money without having to pay it in advance) and conditions of release that ban him from being in the presence of under-14 children without another adult present. Gaudry, a convicted sex offender, was hired by the municipality in 2001. At the time, applicants for employment with the municipality were required to disclose whether they had a criminal record, but

reveal whether they have a criminal record that “may be relevant to the person’s employment.” After he was hired, Gaudry rose quickly through the ranks at Delta city hall to head the planning and development department, where he was considered a key architect of the Delta “down-zoning” policy that allows for neighbourhood-byneighbourhood size restrictions to prevent so-called “monster homes.” After Gaudry resigned, Delta’s chief administrative officer (CAO) told The Leader he personally did not learn the nature of Gaudry’s criminal past until he received an anonymous tip via e-mail, apparently from someone in eastern Canada. When Delta Police investigated, they confirmed Gaudry had a record of sex offences, the CAO said. The matter was discussed during two closed-door Delta council meetings on April 5, 2004 and April 26, 2004. Notes from the “in camera” sessions obtained by The Leader show the first meeting involved a letter from a law firm telling council it would be illegal to fire an employee for a past criminal record. At the second meeting, Gaudry was appointed director of community planning and development with a condition that he could not substitute for the CAO under any circumstances, unlike other senior Delta municipal managers who rotate through the acting post whenever the CAO is away. Gaudry had applied to get a pardon for his 1995 sexual assault conviction before he became director of Delta’s municipal engineering department.

servative MPs to rework the formula. “Every mayor and council that has RCMP are concerned about the costs,” City of North Vancouver Mayor Darrell Mussatto said at the Union of B.C. Municipalities (UBCM) convention in Whistler. The push for cost control comes amid negotiations to renew B.C.’s contract with the RCMP – which expires in March of 2012 – and debate over whether to shift to a provincial police force. Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender said some progress has been made. The federal government has agreed to cover 30 per cent of the cost of integrated regional policing teams and cadet training, up from 10 per cent. The province has rejected federal attempts to download even

with rising costs. A UBCM survey found nearly two-thirds of municipalities consider RCMP policing costs to be unaffordable. But Attorney General Mike de Jong said he’s canvassed RCMPpoliced cities and found almost no appetite to actually abandon the Mounties. Critical regional policing functions are performed by the integrated investigation teams that draw officers from multiple RCMP detachments or civic forces – a system some consider a form of regional policing. Rob Gordon, director of SFU’s School of Criminology, supports a provincial police force replacing the RCMP for all but federal policing matters and predicts costs would come down. But he said the provincial government is “under siege” and the new missing women

more costs on cities, he said, but added mayors remain worried. RCMP officers get a 1.5 per cent pay raise next year but the costs of each officer are to grow by a further $4,700 due to higher pension costs. Rifles are also being added to each patrol car at a cost of at least $1,000 each in response to the 2006 shooting of two RCMP officers in Saskatchewan. Detachments also must provide rifleresistant body armour for officers and install more video cameras to monitor prisoners in areas beyond cells. “The costs are going up whether it’s salaries or new equipment needed,” said RCMP Pacific Region Deputy Commissioner Gary Bass, who met with mayors at the UBCM Tuesday. Bass said the issue isn’t limited to the RCMP, as cities with municipal forces are also struggling

inquiry – which could weigh in on the merits of regionalization – means there’s no chance now to form a provincial force and terminate the RCMP in 2012. Gordon said it would be a mistake, however, to roll over the 20-year RCMP contract without including an escape hatch giving B.C. freedom to act later. He also said UBCM cities may not be getting the best advice because their lead negotiator is Murray Dinwoodie, manager of the City of Surrey, where a new $1-billion RCMP E Division headquarters is under construction. “That doesn’t necessarily allow for clear thinking about the options,” Gordon said. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts rejected Gordon’s claim Surrey is in a conflict of interest. “I don’t think that plays a role at all,” she said. “I’m not supportive of paying more money because E Division is coming.” Cities that want out of the RCMP to form their own municipal force or contract with a neighbouring one can do that on two years’ notice, Fassbender noted. He said an analysis of the working group suggests a regional force or provincial force would not be cheaper than the RCMP. “It would actually cost us more,” he said. Complicating the talks is the fact Ottawa so far refuses to negotiate a B.C.-specific RCMP contract, even though nearly half of officers nation-wide work here and Surrey is Canada’s largest detachment. That leaves B.C. trying to coordinate requested changes with other provinces and territories.

Central Two new seats added to Metro Another urban-rural divide at UBCM convention in Whistler City: Sultan of suds by Tom Fletcher

GRUMBLES AND calls for a

North Surrey pub has best beer in Canada: Awards by Kevin Diakiw ONCE AGAIN, Central City Brewing has owned

the podium at the awards for best beer. The North Surrey pub won three gold medals this week for individual brews, then took the best beer of the year at the Canadian Brewing Awards. Brewmaster Gary Lohan was quoted as saying the pub staff brew the beer they love to drink. That approach has been paying off at the awards. Central City won gold for Thorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hammer (best barley wine), Red Racer IPA (best American style India Pale Ale) and Red Racer Imperial (best Imperial India Pale Ale) Earlier this year, Central City took three awards at CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale), where Red Racer also took gold for best seasonal beer. And that wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the first time Central City has been to the podium of pubs. In 2008, Central City took silver in the Best Local Pub category, and a gold for its India Pale Ale. The Canadian Brewing Awards is the only national competition that invites breweries of all sizes from across the country to compete in a blind tasting to see who brews the best beer in 31 style categories. A panel of approximately 20 Certified Beer Judges consider five criteria: aroma, appearance, flavour, mouth-feel and overall impression.

recount followed a vote by local government representatives Wednesday in Whistler to add two new seats to represent Metro Vancouver on their provincial executive. A rural-urban divide often dominates discussion at the annual Union of B.C. Municipalities convention, where most of the population is in cities but smaller towns and rural districts send the majority of delegates. The suggestion that B.C.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest urban area is

lacking influence with senior governments didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go over well with some delegates from smaller communities. Metro Vancouver chair Lois Jackson ruffled rural feathers when she said the change will allow Lower Mainland councils to share their â&#x20AC;&#x153;experience and expertiseâ&#x20AC;? in developing new ways to handle community issues. Interior delegates were quick to respond that their experience in dealing with land use, environmental and other issues is equally valuable. Grand Forks councillor

Nurses riled care facilities throughout the Fraser Health region, but while the B.C. Nursesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Union (BCNU) says patient care will suffer, the health authority argues the changes will actually result in patients receiving more care. The BCNU held a press conference in Surrey on Wednesday to raise concerns about the reduction of RNs in nursing homes. However, Fraser Health says while 68 RNs are indeed being laid off, 85 new Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) positions and 33 care aide positions are being created across 17 facilities. Heather Cook, executive director for residential care and assisted living for Fraser Health, said $12 million is being invested in the care plan this year, with another $8 million pegged for next year.

Delta to share bullet-proof truck Four cities interested in $322,000 armour-plated BearCat vehicle by Dan Ferguson

A Google image of a Nashville, Tenn. police BearCat truck.

WHEN SHERIFFS tried to arrest a 60-year-old man for attempted murder, the result was the worst gun battle in the history of La Crosse County, Wisconsin. The man opened fire from the second floor of his house with a high-powered rifle and military-style grenades, blasting away at three armoured police vehicles. It was the first serious

test of the bullet-proof BearCats since their purchase by state authorities. The gunman had good aim, but the result was nothing worse than some cracked windshield glass and dented bodywork. Around 500 rounds were exchanged during the battle, which ended when the BearCats got close enough to fire tear gas into the house, causing a fire that forced the gunman outside where

Incidents like the 2008 stand-off in La Crosse are why more and more police forces have purchased armoured vehicles to provide rolling protection against heavily armed criminals. The BearCat models built in the U.S. are popular because they are built on regular truck platforms and are less expensive to operate and maintain than many military-spec armoured cars. Unlike ordinary police cars and trucks, the basic BearCat models can handle hits from most small arms fire. They are quick and manoeuvrable with a top speed of 120 km/h and a tight turning radius. But they arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exactly cheap, which is why the Delta Police Department has struck a tentative deal with three other municipalities to share the cost of an armoured rescue vehicle. The deal would see Port Moody, New Westminster and Abbotsford split the $322,000 price of a BearCat or similar type of vehicle to be

used by the Municipal Integrated Emergency Response Team. It would give the ERT officers the ability to rescue civilians from a gunfight as well as providing a safe and secure â&#x20AC;&#x153;point of coverâ&#x20AC;? for police. A BearCat was recently purchased by the Vancouver Police Department and similar units are operating in Calgary, Edmonton and Ottawa. Delta Police Chief Jim Cessford told the Delta Police Board that whatever vehicle is chosen will have to be a smaller, multi-purpose design that can quickly cover the distance between the different communities that own it and navigate their streets with ease. The plan â&#x20AC;&#x153;still needs some fine-tuningâ&#x20AC;? Cessford stressed. If municipal authorities approve the cost, the vehicle would begin service in 2011. It would be based in Port Moody. RCMP in B.C. share two recently acquired six-wheeled tactical armoured vehicles (TAVs) obtained from the Canadian Armed Forces.

Delta a safe place Crime rate low, stats show by Dan Ferguson A DELTA POLICE Department (DPD) breakdown

of crime statistics shows the community continues to have one of the lowest violent crime rates in the country. Using Statistics Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Crime Severity Index that aims to present a more accurate picture of community crime levels, Delta is well below Surrey and Vancouver. Among 208 communities, Delta was ranked number 114 for violent crime. Surrey is ranked at number 14, Vancouver at number 21. Quesnel was the most violent community in Canada with a crime rate (in that category) that was three times higher than Delta, while Tecumseh, Ontario was the least violent with a violent crime rate one-quarter of Deltaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. The DPD survey didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t include a number of rural Canadian communities that have even higher crime rates because they have small populations where only a few criminal acts can register as a large percentage. Overall, violent crime is down one per cent in B.C. and the rest of Canada. The report was presented at the most recent police board meeting.

Oppal to probe Pickton case Inquiry focuses on ﬁve years when killer was active by Jeff Nagel

FORMER B.C. Attorney-General Wally Oppal will head the Missing Women Commission of Inquiry to probe how police failed to catch serial killer Robert Pickton far sooner than they did. The inquiry will focus on a five-year period starting Jan. 23, 1997 – when a woman escaped from the Port Coquitlam pig farm after nearly dying in a bloody knife fight with Pickton. He was arrested but released and several more women disappeared between then and his 2002 arrest. Police investigations by the Vancouver Police Department and RCMP will be probed during that time, according to B.C. Attorney General Mike De Jong, as well as prosecutors’ 1998 decision to drop attempted murder and assault charges against Pickton for the 1997 incident. A series of tips over the years pointed to Pickton as the potential serial killer suspected of preying on drug-addicted women in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. The inquiry is to recommend changes regarding how police initiate and conduct investigations of missing women and suspected multiple murders, as well as any changes to how murder

Regional mayors are meeting with Premier Gordon Campbell to discuss ways to fund transit projects such as the Evergreen Line (route depicted at left).

YOU’LL PAY MORE to help build the Evergreen Line but exactly how much and by what mechanisms remains unclear. Metro Vancouver mayors emerged from a closed-door meeting in Coquitlam with Premier Gordon Campbell and transportation minister Shirley Bond last week with few details but instead an accord promising to work together to decide how to pump more money into TransLink for rapid transit expansion. Potential options range from a vehicle levy to some form of road pricing or regional tolling. “We are not taking anything off the table,” Campbell said. “There are dozens of options and I’m not going to pick them.” Two options that had been ruled out and are now back on the table are a future share of the carbon tax – previously blocked by the province – and higher property taxes, which mayors had called impossible. The text of the agreement between the mayors and the province doesn’t explicitly list tolls or road pricing but cites the need

for “new and innovative revenue sources that will shape transportation choices in favour of transit, cycling, walking as well as greenhouse gas emission reductions.” Both the mayors and province also want to snag a cut of rising property values along planned rapid transit corridors. It’s not yet clear whether that could involve a special property tax near transit stations, development fees, deals with property developers on zoning and density, or some combination thereof. The aim is for TransLink’s board to advance a funding supplement to the mayors to vote on by the end of the year. Campbell said public consultation will be first and foremost, taking pains to note the government has learned from the public backlash over its rush to implement the Harmonized Sales Tax. “We will have to make choices,” he said, adding there are more demands than dollars available to do everything cities want. TransLink still needs to deliver its $400 million capital share of the $1.4-billion Evergreen Line to Coquitlam. Mayors last year raised taxes and fares just enough to

bail the transportation authority out of deficit, but not to deliver Evergreen. They had been insisting the province provide new revenue sources for TransLink to ensure a broader package of transit expansion – including rapid transit extensions in Surrey and Vancouver and operation of a third SeaBus – not merely an Evergreen-only solution. Both sides now say there’s a new spirit of cooperation. Bond said how much to build and how much money must be raised will be up to the Metro mayors’ council to decide. Mayors’ council chair Peter Fassbender, mayor of Langley City, called it a “significant step” and said local cities “want to be part of the solution.” Both he and the premier gave assurances the Evergreen Line will be built, and Fassbender stressed the need for a longterm framework, rather than one-off solutions. “This is only the road map,” he said. “The heavy lifting comes after.” Also see TRANSIT... / Page 18

THE CONUNDRUM of how to

raise more cash to finance TransLink has bedevilled the region for years. The rules set by the province in 2007 to govern TransLink limited it to raising property taxes, fares and the fuel tax, which rose three cents last year and can’t go farther without legislative change. A $600,000 Metro home already pays $220 per year in property tax strictly to TransLink. A controversial annual vehicle levy is also within TransLink’s powers to impose but mayors are reluctant to use it. TransLink last year mulled a $122 average car levy that would vary depending on the vehicle’s carbon footprint. Other options have been considered. TransLink’s former CEO wanted Victoria to share the Property Transfer Tax, a cash cow that generates as much as $1 billion a year for the province,

half of it from the Lower Mainland. Using that would mean either the province parting with some of its existing cash stream or using the mechanism to take a bigger slice from Metro real estate transactions. Another idea was a small tax on all containers passing through local port terminals. The argument was locals wouldn’t feel it, the shipping industry should contribute to road upkeep and the port would benefit from more road space for trucks if more commuters could take transit instead of driving. The port balked and Victoria ruled the idea out on the basis it would make the growing Pacific Gateway less competitive with rival ports. Even a cellphone levy was briefly suggested. A share of the carbon tax is the idea many mayors still feel makes the most sense. Although the province maintains the carbon tax is revenue-neutral because of

offsetting income tax cuts, some argue Victoria gets little credit for the tax cuts and might as well devote some of the money to greenhouse gas-reducing transit upgrades. The carbon tax applies more broadly than TransLink’s existing gas tax, because it also applies to the burning of all other fossil fuels, such as natural gas to heat homes and businesses. Road pricing, perhaps through regional tolling of all bridges, is another option some transportation policy experts say must come eventually anyway. It’s argued that process has already begun with tolls now on the Golden Ears Bridge and the new Port Mann Bridge by 2012 and potentially the new Pattullo a few years later. Another variation sometimes suggested is pay-as-you-drive insurance, where motorists are charged for basic auto insurance by ICBC depending on how much they drive in a year.

by Dan Ferguson THE LATEST STATISTICS show a trou-

bling increase in theft from vehicles in Delta. The numbers released at the most recent municipal police board meeting show there were 586 cases of theft from cars and trucks in North and South Delta as of the end of July compared to 454 for the previous year. That is an increase of 29 per cent, the only category of crime in the community to show a substantial hike. In most cases, crooks didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to force their way inside, Police Chief Jim Cessford noted.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of people are not locking their vehicles,â&#x20AC;? Cessford said. The latest spike occurred in Tsawwassen, which has suffered mini-crime waves where 50 to 60 vehicles were hit over a short period of time. Usually, the thefts are the work of a single suspect, sometimes visitors from Surrey or Vancouver. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get them on one, but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll probably have committed 40, 60, 100 more,â&#x20AC;? Cessford said. He complained the courts tend to view theft from cars as relatively minor crime. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t keep them (in jail) for any length of time.â&#x20AC;?

Surrey’s Scott Karrasch on national sledge team

Surprised at selection by Rick Kupchuk

HAVING PLAYED the game for less than a year, Scott Karrasch was less than optimistic when assessing his chance of making the national sledge hockey team. The 33-year-old Surrey resident had joined the B.C. Eagles just 10 months ago, but at a tournament in Edmonton, he caught the eye of Adam Crockatt (Hockey Canada’s Manager of national teams). Karrasch received an invitation to a national team selection camp Sept. 9-12 in Petawawa, Ontario, but after three days of practice and games, was convinced he was heading home unsuccessful. “I thought my skill level wasn’t there, not yet anyway,” he said. “I thought on the Sunday afternoon, I was coming home.” After the final game of the weekend that Sunday morning, athletes entered a room one-by-one for an evaluation by the coaching staff. Those chosen for the national team went into a meeting room, the first stage of a three-day orientation camp. The rest headed for a bus for a ride to the airport. Scott Karrasch Karrasch wasn’t on the bus. The oldest player at the camp – and the least experienced – had cracked the 16-player roster. “They just said I have a lot of potential,” he said. “I think they thought my speed was good, and I’m fairly well-conditioned. At least, that’s my personal opinion. “I went in knowing I had to be in the best shape I’ve ever been in. I’ve been weightlifting for 12 years, so I think my conditioning helped. My level of play wasn’t there, but they’ve seen the dedication. I guess they’re taking a chance on me.” Karrasch will be back in Ontario Oct. 14-16, wearing Hockey Canada’s red-and-white when Canada takes on the United States in a threegame series in Ontario. Not bad for someone who had never seen a sledge hockey game until he was convinced to try-out for the Surrey-based B.C. Eagles less than a year ago. “I’ve always been a hockey fan, and a Canucks fan,” he said. “But I never played hockey. Someone at work said go to the tryout. I thought I had nothing to lose, so I did. “And it became apparent how much fun it was.”

Scott Karrasch, pictured at practice with the Surrey-based B.C. Eagles, was selected to the 16-member national sledge hockey team following a selection camp last month in Petawawa, Ontario. SECTION C0-ORDINATOR: RICK KUPCHUK (PHONE 604-575-5335)

the Seaquam Seahawks scored late to edge the Hugh Boyd Trojans 8-7 in a B.C. High School Football Association game last Saturday afternoon. The Trojans scored early in the first quarter, and nursed their 7-0 lead until late in the fourth period. Both teams dominated play defensively in the second and third quarters, with neither team managing to move the ball into scoring position. Seaquam finally hit on a big play with four minutes to play, when running back Greg Finley broke through for a 42-yard run, setting up quarterback Tyler Green to score on a short run. The Seahawks opted to kick the convert to salvage a tie, but a Hugh Boyd penalty moved the ball closer to the end zone, prompting the home side to try a two-point convert. Finley ran the ball in for the the win. Leading the Seahawk defence in tackles were Cameron Laidlaw, Sharyar Syed and Justin Murray. The contest was the first of the season in the Senior AA Coastal Conference schedule. ■ The Frank Hurt Hornets won their second game in as many starts , edging the Nanaimo Islanders 14-12 on Vancouver Island. Jeremy Reid on a 10-yard run and Aldous Esperanza from nine yards out scored the touchdowns, both scores converted by Daniel Miki. Reid finished the contest with 104 yards on 21 carries, while Jake Reiter gained 45 yards on 12 carries. Receiver Josh Krantz caught two passes for 72 yards. The Hornets were led defensively by Tari Rai, Brian Nguyen, Conrad Fitz-Gerald, Manuel Galindo and Devoun Hallums.

Reed started taking singing lessons when she was 14. Her first day job was as a receptionist-secretary at Surrey’s old city hall – now home to the Surrey Archives. “But I fell in love when I was 21 and got married when I was 23,” she says. She worked at a part-time job while raising their two children, a daughter and her late son. At age 67, she recorded a CD of duets with her former music director to help fundraise for his student tuition at the Vancouver School of Theology. Irene Reed “We still get together. He has a church in Vancouver and we sing together periodically.” Five years ago, at age 70, she started taking singing lessons again, from the thenmusical director of Langley United Church. “It was good to get back to basics.” She also wanted to improve her technique and performing ability – plus it gave her the incentive to keep learning new songs. Reed describes her musical tastes as eclectic, drawing from classical and gospel to show tunes and old standards. “I don’t go in for the Rock and Roll,” she says.

Sick and Tired of Losing Money in Mutual Funds and the Stock Market? Think Getting 1 to 1½ % on Your Savings and GIC’s is a Bad Joke? Then Come to This FREE Event October 5 and ....

“Discover The #1 Investment SECRET the Big Canadian Banks and Mutual Fund Co.’s PRAY You Never Find Out...” (And That Your Accountant and Financial Planner Cannot Tell You)! Darren Weeks, Canadian “Multi-Millionaire” (from Edmonton), is revealing the proven investment strategies he learned personally from Robert Kiyosaki (Rich Dad, Poor Dad), and has perfected for our unique Canadian situation. Darren is offering an absolutely FREE event in Surrey on Tuesday, October 5 to show how you too can become financially independent and be able to do whatever you want...in 5 years or less! (No matter what is happening in the economy). He’s also giving away an Amazing FREE gift to every attendee who brings a guest. His NEW audio CD “The 7 Keys to Creating What your banker hopes you never learn. Wealth in Canada” – a $39.95 value – FREE of charge just for bringing a friend (your guest gets one too)! Dear Financially Frustrated Fellow Canadian: The banks and mutual fund companies want to keep you in the dark. I know that those are strong words, and I wouldn’t be so bold in saying them if I couldn’t back it up. The truth of the matter is that I’m really ANGRY and I will NOT keep quiet any longer. My name is Darren Weeks and I want to show you a whole NEW world when it comes to getting ahead financially in Canada. This is the truth about investing that many in the ‘establishment’ really don’t want you to know. Forget what you learned (or didn’t learn) about money and investing in school or from your parents. What worked for their generation no longer works in today’s economy. And take everything you have heard about creating wealth from your banker and financial planner and flush it right down the toilet, because that is where it belongs. The next time your banker or mutual fund sales person (oh, sorry, I meant ‘financial planner’) suggests investing in some ‘wonderful’ mutual fund or stock – ask to see their audited financial statement. Chances are, they have a lot less money than you think (and quite probably a lot less than you have). Why continue to take financial advice from broke salespeople? It doesn’t make any sense. But Why Should You Listen To Me? Good question – you should only take advice from people who are successful, and hopefully more successful than you are. My name is Darren Weeks, and I am proud to say that many of my students across the country call me the “Canadian Rich Dad”. Why? Because the monthly Passive Income (i.e. money I don’t have to work for) from my Investments and Businesses is more than what most Canadians work hard for all year long. It also has to do with the fact that I have a very close association with Robert Kiyosaki, author of “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” and that I have been sharing my “Canadianized” version of his teachings with hundreds of thousands of Canadians since 2001. I am very pleased that I have been able to show Canadians across the country how to take control of their own finances, and to live life on their own terms. I have spurred dozens of people (if not hundreds now) to become millionaires, or multi-millionaires in 5 years or less. Now I do not take the credit for their success – they took the action and actually did something – and I am just happy that I was able to inspire them in some way. Here are Some Credentials… My companies, The Fast Track Group, were honored to be included in the 2010 Profit Magazine list of the fastest growing companies in Canada. One of my companies is also the official sponsor of the Canadian Luge team, and we attracted quite a bit of notoriety in the press during the recent Vancouver Olympics when it was leaked that I offered anyone on the team a $1,000,000 reward if they won a Gold medal (and my offer still stands for the 2014 games in Russia)! I don’t say this to brag, I just tell you this to credentialize myself a bit, and to give you confidence that I am not some fly-by-night quack out trying to peddle you some modern-day financial ‘snake-oil’. I actually do what I am going to teach you about – it’s not theory – it really works. I’m living proof of it. So are my students.

Now let’s get back to the point at hand – how YOU can get superior Return On Investment (ROI) on your hard-earned investment dollars. Here’s What Not to Do: If you follow the establishment’s rules, you will… Pay the highest MER’s in the world. Create a house of cards based portfolio, largely reliant on the U.S. dollar. Listen to advisors whose advice is proven to be about as accurate as a monkey throwing darts at stock picks on the wall... Continue to walk ‘blind’ with Banks, Mutual Fund Co’s, and even the Canadian Government wanting to keep you in the dark Think you are happy with returns that don’t even keep up with the real inflation rate (and the ‘official’ inflation calculations are an absolute crock.) Here are the Benefits of DOING IT RIGHT: But... When you learn the New Rules of Investing, you will... Discover that high returns = high risk is not always accurate. See how easy it can be to take control of your own investing without having to pay huge M.E.R’s (management expense ratios) Understand the pro’s and con’s of investing in gold and silver.

for being suspicious...there are a lot of seminar companies out there that do just that. I assure you, I do not. We do have a selection of quality books and resources available if you are interested. But that is not the goal of me putting on this event. My goal is to give you some phenomenal education and information and to hopefully help you to have a complete mind-shift when it comes to money and creating wealth in Canada. One of the biggest lessons I ever learned from my good friend and mentor, Robert Kiyosaki, is this: Give first without expectation of gain, and you will gain a lot in the long run. So, if you like what I say, you may decide you want to do business with my company in the future. Fair enough? Of course, putting on these events is very expensive. So to help defray the costs I have a very few, select sponsors. You get a fantastic financial education, I get to meet you and spread the Rich Dad message, and the sponsors get a few minutes to show you what they do. The best thing is…we all win! So keep your cheque-book at home, come with an open mind to learn – there is nothing more expensive than a book at this event. How About if I Give You Even More? If I’m going to give away the farm, I might as well go even one step further…so, just for bringing your spouse or a like-minded guest to this FREE event, I want to give you another FREE gift…My “7 Keys to Creating Wealth in Canada” audio

Never want to see another mutual fund or G.I.C. ever again!

Feel comfortable looking at different investment plans that may have baffled you before.

See how Robert Kiyosaki analyzes deals and how you can do the same, easily.

But do you think ultra-rich Canadians pay that much in taxes? Of course not. They know the legal loop-holes to minimize their tax burden or even eliminate it altogether. As a part of this presentation, I will share with you the tax shrinking strategies of the wealthy (even used by one previous Prime Minister). So you can either complain, gripe and gnash your teeth about how unfair it all is, or you can learn the Rules of the Canadian Rich. The Golden Rule when it comes to money is “He (or She) Who Has the Gold...Makes the Rules”. I’m going to level the playing field with what I teach you at this event, so you can play the game of money just like the rich folks do. And Why is This Event FREE? Now if you have ever been to another ‘Free’ financial education seminar before, you are probably worried that I am going to get you all fired up and excited, and then pull the old ‘baitand-switch’ on you about half way through, (and try and sell you some super expensive investment or real estate course/training). I don’t blame you

See you at the top! Darren Weeks.

Cheque out these donations Patrons at Surrey’s Moose Pub raised $7,130.51 for Surrey Memorial Hospital Foundation. The Foundation’s Yolanda Benoit (left) received the latest proceeds from meat draws organized by customers Graham Lawton, Mike Kilpatrick, Mike Reynolds, ‘Wee’ Jimmy Hill and Bill Rodney. Since 2006, the group has raised close to $50,000 for the hospital.

The Scotiabank at King George Boulevard and 102 Avenue raised $8,447 for the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada, B.C. and Yukon Division. A rafﬂe was held, with the grand prize being two tickets to anywhere WestJet ﬂies. From left are winner Wes Brunskill, Kirk Vaillant of WestJet Airlines and Scotiabank branch manager Kelly Botchar.

From client to manager WHEN ROB WATKINS opened his first

savings account at Envision Financial’s Scottsdale location (then known as Delta Credit Union), little did he know that some 30 years later he would become a branch manager. Watkins, a ten-year veteran of Envision and recent Manager of Envision’s Ridge Meadows Branch, was chosen to lead Scottsdale. Bob Watkins “Rob literally helped build Ridge Meadows from an empty plot of land to Envision’s top branch when it comes to member satisfaction scores. He’s genuinely committed to making local, common sense decisions for our members in the community,” said Envision President Bev Brown.

Chris Pettypiece, director, Lower Mainland Network Construction, presents a $6,170 donation to Suzanne Sutton and Dalyce Wickett of the Delta Hospice Society. The donation was made through Telus’ Employee Charitable Giving program, where donations made by team members and retirees are matched by the Telus Corporation.

Sarah McDiarmid of Surrey Memorial Hospital Foundation receives a cheque from Wings Tap and Grill Surrey General Manager Netty Chan following the King George Boulevard location’s 8th anniversary Hawaiian Patio Party. Wings Tap and Grill raised $1,360 for the foundation’s building projects.

Not speechless about mom

ith an inspiring speech that shared insights on travelling light through life, Jamie MacDonald, a Surrey Toastmaster, competed in the final round of the Toastmasters’ 2010 World Championship of Public Speaking in Palm Desert, California, USA. He finished in ninth place from among 30,000 people from 113 countries who entered the contest at the local level – they embarked on a yearlong process of elimination through club, area and district competitions. MacDonald’s speech, “Unchained Memory” described the transient

nature of most of what we give our lives to acquire, as highlighted by his mother’s 10 year battle with dementia. Her faith, hope and love were her possessions of true value and what she passed on to him. These qualities were also all she could take with her on her journey home. “It was a real honour to represent all of British Columbia at the World Championship,” said MacDonald following the event. “I was humbled to have so much support from Toastmasters all over the province.”

(He also wowed the crowd at the Toastmasters International Speech Contest Semifinals two days before with a different speech, titled “The Power of Spit.”) MacDonald is a business owner, management trainer and keynote speaker, and is a member of Surrey Business Friends Toastmasters. Toastmasters International is a nonprofit educational organization that teaches public speaking and leadership skills through a worldwide network of clubs.

The way to class

CONTINUING the tradition of welcoming new and returning students in the beginning of the school year, friendly faculty and staff members at Kwantlen Polytechnic University volunteered as welcome hosts to greet students at Kwantlen’s Langley, Cloverdale, Richmond and Surrey campuses. Covering more than 135 volunteer hours from Sept. 7-8, the Kwantlen welcome hosts sported Kwantlen welcome host T-shirts and wore “Ask Me” signs as they helped new and returning students navigate the campuses and answered questions about parking, classroom locations and student services. The welcome host program is one of many Kwantlen initiatives and services in place to help students transition successfully into an undergraduate university environment. Students can also take advantage of free study skill and time management seminars and other support services and social opportunities available on campus.

IT’S A GREAT TIME to enhance our fall and winter gardens with some lovable, perfumed winter pansies, but there is more to it than just popping them in the ground. What we need most during these next few cool, dreary months is brightness. Warm colours, such as yellows, reds and oranges, along with whites for accent, will add life and a great deal of vibrancy to our gardens. Pastel colours, like most blues, pinks and mauves, won’t show up as an well, although they too can ct. have a very pleasing effect. ed Multicoloured or mixed pansies are attractive, but they don’t have the same impact in a winterscape as single coloured pansies that stand out by themselves and are further enhanced by being paired with complementary colours. Yellows and blues are often used together very ut effectively, but what about ve maroonsoft yellows with attractive reds or wine-purples? Believe me, they’re combinations that really work. Reds and whites together aren’t bad either. Whites with deep purples look very classy, and bright oranges with pastel blues are also great. The point is: Put some striking colour combinations together for a far more dramatic result in your garden. Now, where to put them? It’s important to understand that unless you plant pansies in strategic groupings they are never going to create a high impact display.

They will be far more effective when located in high visibility locations, such as along your driveway and sidewalks and around focal trees in your landscape. Stand back and take a good look at your landscape to see just where little bits of colour would spark things up for the coming fall and winter. If you have some large flower beds you’d like to liven up, use pansies along with other winter plants. Flowering kale and cabbage are se sensational winter focal points, especially the new Red Bor and the silver kale lac laciniata. Plant kale in attractive p patterns, using blocks of t three to five plants. Between your g groupings of kale, add bl blocks of solid, brightly co coloured pansies. T orange pansies Try aroun purple kale or deep around pans around white kale. blue pansies These com combinations are really eye-catch eye-catching. Prov Winner folks have The Proven come up with a wonderful series of hardy evergreen plants that complement pansies very nicely. Dwarf evergreen grasses make fabulous focal points in planting beds or containers. For example, Carex morrowii Variegata has white and yellow variegated foliage that is quite striking all winter long. These grasses are also perfect companions to small bulbs like blue crocus and dwarf Iris reticulata. The new evergreen ajugas, like the deep purple Mahogany and the pink/cream Burgundy Glow, make fine ground covers or edging plants and are great comple-

ments to pansies. I really love hardy evergreen euphorbias, like E. amygdaloides, that turn bright burgundy in winter and produce fabulous chartreuse flowers in spring. These euphorbias tolerated minus 20 degrees C last winter with no problems. Purple foliaged heucheras, like Obsidian and Blackout are not only evergreen but also provide fabulous accents for almost any colour of pansy. The new lime colours of heucherella Sunspot and heuchera Lime Rickey and Citronelle are powerful accents. You can also create Brian Minter some fabulous combinations with the new colours of heucheras Caramel and Peach Flambé. They are especially effective with orange and gold pansies. We’ve only just begun to discover the pleasure and value that pansies can add to a garden during the bleakest time of the year. Getting an early start will make a huge difference to the size and quality of your pansy display. If the hot weather makes them stretch just a bit, a little pinching back will not only keep them compact but will also really bulk them up.
