New home rebound fuels job growth Housing starts nearly double over last year’s pace by Jeff Nagel

three-year process was a distressing exercise. “We got the letter of a gift in kind back in the late part of November last year,” Holland said Monday. “Then we were just waiting for the deed or the title to come to us.” They waited months, and then made contact with Chan’s brother Donald, who is selling the property for the restaurant magnate. “He says ‘oh, it’s just not going to happen,’ ” Holland said. To this day, the Salvation Army doesn’t know why the donation was rescinded. “We just have to move on,” Holland said, adding it’s been a disheartening experience for the Salvation Army. “We had our dreams and our hopes, planning,” Holland said.

CONSTRUCTION WORKERS, trades and other industries related to home building are basking in a surge of new housing starts that has added thousands of jobs in the Lower Mainland. Metro Vancouver has recorded 12,584 home starts so far this year – nearly double what was admittedly a dismal 2009 in the depths of the recession. This year’s new home construction is estimated to support 35,235 full-time jobs, according to Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association CEO Peter Simpson. That’s 22,000 more jobs than Peter Simpson the industry generated in 2009, he said. “Everybody’s hiring,” Simpson said. “Not just on site, but at the manufacturing facilities that produce windows, doors, flooring and the other things that go into a home.”

Three years ago, officials at the Salvation Army learned Walter Chan, owner of Smitty’s Restaurants, was giving them the 7.7-acre property at 64 Avenue and King George Boulevard. That’s recently changed – for sale signs have gone back up on the property and the Sally Ann is moving on to other things. “It’s for sale,” Chan confirmed in a telephone interview from Calgary. However, he wouldn’t comment on why the gift to the Salvation Army fell through. “Why are we accountable to you?” Chan said. “I have no comments.” Major Russ Holland, a pastor with the Salvation Army, said the

Simpson: Mood of optimism From page 1 He conceded the construction industry still has a long way to go to reach the pre-recession building pace, when nearly 20,000 units a year were going up across the region. But Simpson said the numbers are going in the right direction. “There’s a mood of optimism in what’s happening,” he said. Uncertainty about the Harmonized Sales Tax, which adds to the cost of the portion of new homes worth more than $525,000, is a factor for buyers. “They’re wondering whether the HST will be overturned with the referendum, so they’re very hesitant as to whether they want to buy now or wait.” But he said record-low mortgage rates are also helping drive the market, adding borrowing costs may not be as cheap for those who wait and gamble that the HST will be scrapped. More than twothirds of housing starts in Metro Vancouver so far this year are units in multifamily projects, according to new statistics from the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. The City of Vancouver leads with 3,409 starts so far this year (up 191 per cent from the same period of 2009), followed by Surrey at 3,058 (up 62 per cent), Richmond at 1,209 (up 105 per cent), Coquitlam at 1,047 (up 188 per cent) and Burnaby at 977 (up 63 per cent.) The Abbotsford area is also up 40 per cent to 418 starts and Chilliwack has 663 new homes started, up 114 per cent. CMHC senior market analyst Robyn Adamache said more than half the new townhouses started in the region in October were in Surrey and Langley, while the bulk of new homes with secondary suites are in Vancouver and Coquitlam.

Surrey home starts are up 62 per cent over 2009.

filled with folded $100 bills, 93 in all. The donation was dropped off at the Penny Savers’ Thrift Store at 11961 82 Ave. last week. The store raises money for the

Surrey Memorial Hospital (SMH) Auxiliary. A woman accompanied by a small boy approached one of the volunteers at the store shortly before closing time and asked if the charity accepted cash donations. When the volunteer said yes, the woman left the bag with the store cashier and left. It wasn’t until the staff started counting the bag contents in the back that they realized the size of the gift.

Now the hospital auxiliary is trying to find the generous donor to say thanks. She is described as an Asian or Hispanic-looking lady in her 30s, roughly 5’4” with a “round” build and short curly dark hair. The boy with her appeared to be about four years old. If you are the lady in question or you know who she is, call the hospital auxiliary office at SMH at 604-588-3302.

Watts: ‘...trying to develop that site for quite some time’ From page 1 “That corner obviously has a really high potential to do some good things for the community.” The Sally Ann was working on plans to create seniors’ and affordable housing on the site. Donald Chan said the asking price is $7.5 million for the property and said the location could be used for retail and residential. He would not say why the donation to the Salvation

Army fell through. Mayor Dianne Watts said Tuesday she’s extremely distressed with the continued delays in re-developing the property since the market closed down a dozen years ago, adding the city will begin enforcing its unsightly premises bylaw. “We have been trying to re-develop that site for quite some time,” Watts said, adding several proponents have come forward with “excellent” plans to purchase the property. “Then, when it comes to the eleventh hour, everything falls apart. “This has happened time and time and time again, and for

us as a city, it’s very frustrating,” she said. Watts said the city will be informing Walter Chan he must clean up the property, or it will be done for him and the bill will be added to his property taxes. “It’s been an eyesore, we’ve been trying to get the owner to work with us in terms of re-developing that site,” Watts said, adding it needs to get cleaned up quickly, “because we’ve been waiting too long for the owner to take action.” kdiakiw@surreyleader.com

“There are going to be people, probably in line for the first time,” she anticipates. “People are calling... saying they’ve never had to get help before.” So far, she says, the community has stepped up with donations, many coming from drop-off bins at local fire halls, but more support is always required. “We sort of wear the Santa hats here, but the real Santas are the ones out there in the community – the ones who adopt a family or give corporate sponsorship,” said Gilroy. “If there’s someone that’s sick and tired of their December birthday party being a thing where they get more stuff they don’t want, maybe flip it into something that’s a benefit.” The Surrey Christmas Bureau is located at 10277 King George Blvd. Hours are Monday to Saturday, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., through Nov. 30.

Carol Berner’s fate to be settled today

EE SKIN CANCER SCREENING FRThe Canadian Dermatology Association and Dona Cadman, M.P.

Driver who struck and killed girl will be sentenced

North Surrey Recreation Centre, 10275 - 135 Street

by Tracy Holmes CAROL Berner, the

driver who struck and killed four-year-old Alexa Middelaer, will learn today (Friday) if she will go to jail for her decision to drink and drive. (Go to www. surreyleader.com for the decision). Berner, 58, was convicted in July of impaired driving causing death, impaired driving causing bodily harm, dangerous driving causing death and dangerous driving causing bodily harm in connection with the May 2008 crash that also injured Alexa’s aunt. Judge Peder Gulbransen heard submissions on sentencing in Surrey Provincial Court Monday, where prosecutor Kim Wendel argued a sentence of three to five years imprisonment on each count – to be served concurrently – would be appropriate, along with a five- to sevenyear driving prohibition. “A custodial sentence is necessary to deter other like-minded individuals who may be tempted to get behind the wheel after consuming alcohol,” Wendel said. She described the consequences of Berner’s choice that day as “enormous.” Gulbransen also heard six victim-impact statements, including from Alexa’s parents, grandparents and brother. The blond youngster was a student in Crescent Beach at the time of her death. Her mother, Laurel, is a principal at Southridge School in South Surrey. Defense counsel David Tarnow argued against jail time for his client, submitting Berner has already been punished – by the public, by media and by her own guilt. She lives in a cold trailer on native land, relies on the food bank and can’t go anywhere “without being noticed or ridiculed,” he said. Jail would be a dangerous place for Berner, he added. “In prison, Ms. Berner will be known as a person who has caused the death of a child. Her life in prison

will no doubt be in danger,” Tarnow told Gulbransen. While Wendel had asked Gulbransen to consider the principles of general deterrence, denunciation, retribution and rehabilitation in sentencing Berner, Tarnow expressed concern with the connection many make between retribution and vengeance.

“Retribution is on the minds of many today,” Tarnow said. “The overtones of that concept is quite clear from everything that’s been said about this case outside of the court.” Tarnow asked Gulbransen for “restraint” in sentencing Berner. “This lady should not be going to jail,” he said. tholmes@peacearchnews.com

We pay more, and wait more, for transit THE NEW smart-card system that TransLink plans to implement is ridiculous. It will bill people proportional to the distance they travel. The common justification is that people who travel more should pay more. If people in the suburbs should pay proportional to the distance travelled in the name of fairness, then people in Vancouver must also pay for the service they get in the name of fairness. For example, I have to wait a half-hour for a bus. If I miss my bus, I have to wait an hour. However, in Vancouver, I have to wait seven minutes for a bus over there. If I miss that bus, I just have

to wait for another seven minutes. In terms of wait times, my service is four times as worse than the service in Vancouver. With these factors considered, it makes no sense for people in the suburbs to pay proportional to the distance they travel, when people in Vancouver do not have to pay proportional to the service they get. The executives at TransLink are obviously biased in their implementation of the new smartcard system and the factors affecting billing. Overall, it only makes more sense that people in Vancouver pay more for their transit. People in the suburbs may travel farther, but remember

that Vancouver gets two full books’ worth of transit service and buses that come just as regular as a SkyTrain. On the other hand, people in the suburbs only get about a third of a book’s worth of transit service – as many suburbs are lumped together in one book – not as regular busses, and many bus routes that are not direct enough to get to a destination. In other words, the distance that the bus needlessly travelled will further bill the people in the suburbs. There must be a change in the billing for the new smart-card system. James Walter

‘I am so desperately sorry...’ THE DAY after Carol Berner apolo-

gized to the family of four-year-old Alexa Middelaer at Monday’s sentencing hearing for impaired driving causing death, Berner’s niece, Kendra Voth, issued the following statement: I am the niece of Carol Berner and wanted to release Carol’s official remorse letter to the public. Carol has been silently mourning for so long and hopes to find a way to make a difference in the community by sharing her experience. Here are the heart-wrenching words spoken by Carol, as she tried to hold herself together while reading her statement in court. She spiralled into a very severe panic attack to the point of seizing, once she finished addressing Alexa’s family. It’s shameful to think that this woman is not living in anguish daily having to live with the horrific consequences of her actions. The Middelaers may not and ever be ready to give forgiveness, and Carol is willing to spend the rest of her life trying to earn it, as said in her letter: AFTER ALL this time of silently grieving for your family and for what has happened, I stand before you finally able to speak. I have been living in torment all this time not being able to reach out and express my deepest emotions to your family. As a mother, I can’t fathom the anguish that you all must feel every day, and knowing that I am responsible for the death of your precious little girl and the life-long injuries that Daphne will endure is something that I will live with for the rest of my life. There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think of Alexa and how intensely she must be missed. If there was anything I could do or say to take away your pain I would. I wish I could change what happened that day, but all I can do is take responsibility for my actions and

make changes within myself and try and make a difference. I will share my story endlessly and publicly in hopes to prevent someone else from making the same mistakes I made. If I can prevent just one person from getting behind the wheel of a car, I know I am making a difference. I hope to have the opportunity to help rebuild value in our community and heal the devastation I have caused. I will never get behind the wheel of another car for the rest of my life and since have stopped drinking entirely. I recently have found God and try to find peace and keep faith that I can find the strength to get through every day. Emotionally, I don’t know how to cope with the agony I feel every day, I am haunted by nightmares and suffer from severe anxiety attacks that leave me feeling vulnerable and out of control of my state of mind. The effects of my actions are serious and have not gone without punishment. I have quietly and emotionally accepted my fate of being turned into a villain by my peers and have been outcast within our community. The consequences of my choices have affected my ability to ever live a normal life. But nothing is a harsher punishment than knowing that I caused this senseless heartbreak and pain. In understanding the severity of this situation, I know I can’t just ask for forgiveness, that I have to earn it, and going to jail will not give me the opportunity to do so. I am so desperately sorry for what the Middelaer family is going through. I am just an ordinary, good, hard-working member of our community who made a terrible mistake. I hope one day I can earn the Middelaers’ forgiveness and that they can truly start to heal.

(“Suites: No enforcement the problem, says Bose,” The Leader, Oct. 27). Bylaw enforcement is sadly lacking in Surrey and we are noted for that. No enforcement equals no bylaw. Comparison of how many bylaw officers we have versus other municipalities is irrelevant if Surrey is unwilling to use the hammer. The city should litigate

against the most flagrant bylaw violators, making them an example for other violators to see. I expect this will lead to better compliance and increased revenue stream. Municipal elections are only a year or so away and I, along with many I know, will vote for the candidates that puts bylaw enforcement high on their platform. S. Burke, Surrey

Examine HST facts A RECENT letter from Eleanor Melish is proof that the Liberal party did not get out the true impact of the HST. First, what was Eleanor Melish paying in federal and provincial sales taxes before HST was brought in? In all likelihood they where the same as the $20.49 she paid now. Secondly, as a senior citizen on Old Age Security, her income should be below $20,000 a year. This means that she will receive a total of $230 annually in HST rebates, paid out in four payments. Lastly, I can say as to benefits, that my wife has her cancer drugs all paid for. No other province has funded 100 per cent of cancer drugs. B.C. leads the country in survival rates for cancer. Cardiovascular survival rates are also the highest in the country. All of these outcomes’ benefits cost money. Finally, the provincial government has reported that 17 lumber mills have started up, and the United States wants to reopen the softwood lumber agreement because they consider HST as giving an unfair tax advantage to Canadian companies, it’s no wonder that the NDP have stated they will not eliminate the HST if elected. We all need to examine all the facts about the HST before we vote on the HST referendum next September. Bill Stilwell, Surrey

A political math lesson AS A MATH teacher, I am often asked by my students, “When will I ever need this?” Now, when my Grade 8 students study the section on misrepresenting data, I will have a real-life example to show the class on how data can be misrepresented – the premier’s televised address. So when I am asked the question this year, I will be able to answer: “Whenever you listen to Premier Gordon Campbell.” Thank you once again for making education relevant to my students.

Surrey school teacher introduces slacklining to students

Guildford Seniors Village Winter Craft Fair Saturday, November 20th, 9:30am - 2:30pm

by Sheila Reynolds WATCHING their friends try,

the group of Grade 6 students at Georges Vanier Elementary are chatty and relaxed and even giggly. But when it’s their turn to step up beside the yellow line, one by one, their faces change. Fixing on a focal point straight ahead, they lift one foot, resting it on the suspended line, and when steady, push with the other leg until they’re off the ground. Some teeter and fall right back down to the dirt, while others manage to stay up or even walk a little. The students are trying a “balance sport” called slacklining, where a woven nylon line (two inches wide in this case) is tied to a tree on both ends and pulled taught with a built-in ratchet system. It’s much like tightrope walking that you might see at a circus performance – except just a foot or so off the ground. The non-competitive, individual sport was initially started by rock climbers to improve balance and core strength. “It’s really social, it’s really close to the ground and it’s

Georges Vanier Elementary Grade 6 student Taranjot Dhoot balances on a slackline. safe,” explains teacher Tyler McNabb, who introduced the sport to the Surrey elementary school this fall. “It really appeals to kids. A lot of the kids who are in it now are ones that aren’t typically involved in school sports.” While simply getting your full weight on the line is tough, taking even one step is even more difficult. “I would say it’s a good 100 tries before you get it,” says McNabb.

“But once you get that – I’ve got a few kids that can take six or seven steps – that’s when it gets addictive because you want to make it the whole way.” He sets up a line or two at lunchtime and after school a few days a week and anyone in any grade can give it a try. Some students return week after week, trying to better their skills or beat the number of steps they took the week before. “It’s different... everyone plays soccer and stuff,” says Taranjot Dhoot, explaining why she likes slacklining. Babalpreet Gill, who’s managed to work her way up to five or six steps, admits it can be maddening. “It’s frustrating. Sometimes you don’t even get one step,” she says. “But you keep on trying.” Once people get really good, says McNabb, they can progress to “tricks” like turns and even twists and flips. He also points to the affordability of the sport as a draw. The line itself costs about $80 and then it just needs to be set up between any two solid anchors. Anyone interested in learning more about slacklining can contact McNabb at mcnabb_t@ sd36.bc.ca

Steve Fonyo is back behind bars Charged with uttering threats against his wife by Dan Ferguson STEVE FONYO is back in jail.

He was arrested for uttering threats against his wife, Lisa Greenwood in Surrey on Sunday (Nov. 7). The 45-year-old made a appearance in Surrey Provincial Court on Monday where he was charged with one count of uttering threats and ordered held in custody until a bail hearing on Wednesday. Greenwood attended the hearing. She told reporters outside the courtroom that she and her husband got into an argument Sunday because he was stressed

out over finances. He hadn’t been paid for work he’d done, Greenwood said, and their argument escalated to the point where she called police. They arrested her husband even though she didn’t want him charged, she said. By law, police are required to lay charges in domestic assault cases even if the alleged victim withdraws their complaint. Greenwood said she is afraid the arrest will mean the loss of the $20,000 bond that was posted by an anonymous benefactor to win her spouse’s release the last time he ended up in jail. It’s yet another legal crisis the

BABYCARE

Some health fees waived SOME convalescent

care patients deemed to be in financial hardship aren’t paying the province’s controversial new $29.40 per day fee for room and board while they recover from a hospital stay. Fraser Health spokesman Roy Thorpe said hardship waivers have so far been granted to 30 patients, or close to 10 per cent of the 315 patients admitted to convalescent care units since April 19, when the new fees took effect. Only one patient who requested a waiver has been denied and in most cases the waivers eliminated the fee altogether, Thorpe said. Patients who request a waiver must provide financial statements. There is no income cutoff to be eligible – the health authority instead judges the patients’ financial ability to pay based on a combination of their income, rent, medical and other costs. Critics of the fees say they cause stress to the patients – most of whom are over 75 – and might even contravene the Canada Health Act. “Seniors cannot afford it,” said Alice Edge, co-chair of the B.C. Health Coalition. “If people are receiving medically necessary treatment or care, user fees should not be introduced.” Convalescent care is for patients who have been discharged from hospital but need more time to recover under supervised care, provided in several residential care homes around the region. There are concerns some patients will try to go home sooner than they should because of the fees or

else may refuse to go into convalescent care and remain in hospital, occupying beds needed for acute patients and contributing to hospital congestion. Edge said calls began to pour in to the coalition since August as bills started to go out and more people became aware of the new charges. “I think it’s inappropriate,” North Delta businessman Firth Bateman told the Fraser Health board Nov. 2. “Can we not be more creative about bringing money and resources into the health care system than simply slapping a toll on that very unfairly hits people who can’t afford to pay?” Patients who don’t pay their bill could be chased by a collection agency, but Fraser Health officials say those who don’t want to pay won’t be denied care. “Patients are never discharged from hospital because they refuse to go to a convalescent care unit where they’ll be subject to the convalescent care fee,” Thorpe said. He was unable to estimate the total of bills sent to patients in Fraser Health so far. But since patients stay in convalescent care an average of seven weeks, the payments could add up to at least $1,400 per patient – worth more than $400,000 to Fraser Health to date. Fraser Health CEO Nigel Murray referred questions about the government’s policy of charging the convalescent care fees to the ministry of health. Health minister Kevin Falcon has continued to maintain the fees are an appropriate and reasonable contribution to room and board costs.

ing room time for some ophthalmologists it says are refusing to provide emergency on-call coverage at Royal Columbian Hospital due to an ongoing pay dispute. The punishment deprives the eye surgeons of income and is an attempt at forcing them to resume emergency coverage. “We’ve tried everything to get these guys to do what they should be doing,” said Dr. Peter Blair, Fraser Health’s program medical director for surgery. Emergency ophthalmology at Royal Columbian often involves serious eyeball trauma, including industrial accidents. Blair said the refusal of the specialists, who normally work out of Burnaby General Hospital and Ridge Meadows Hospital, to provide emergency coverage at RCH as required has impacted patients and the consistency of care at the regional trauma centre. “We’ve got patients laying in Royal Columbian wondering if they’re going to lose their vision, wondering why an ophthalmologist isn’t coming to see them.”

Fraser Health gave them 10 days notice and then started cutting their operating room time, he said. The dispute has been simmering since April, when Fraser Health said it wanted all afterhours eye emergencies across the region handled by two on-call ophthalmologists each night, instead of three previously. Making two on-call specialists cover a wider area saves the health authority about $135,000 a year. Blair said the difference amounts to about $4,200 per ophthalmologist per year – less than half of one per cent of the annual pay of those involved. “For that amount of money, we’ve had these patients held to ransom.” Dr. Kevin Parkinson – who billed more than $1.2 million last year – said neither he nor any of the other ophthalmologists affected have refused on-call coverage. He said they simply sought to pressure Fraser Health by insisting such patients get transferred to Burnaby and Eagle Ridge, which have better eye surgery suites anyway. “We have never withdrawn our

services to patients, nor would we plan to as a method to solve this stalemate,” Parkinson said. He said the issue goes beyond pay – eye specialists don’t feel they can safely and effectively cover the whole region on a reduced schedule. He said 13 ophthalmology specialists at Burnaby General and Ridge Meadows are having half their surgical slates cancelled – roughly 15 cataract surgeries each day. And he predicts the dispute could spread to more hospitals. “It’s spiralled downwards to the point we’re at now, which is not a good one,” Parkinson said. “If they’re willing to do this to patients what else are they willing to do?” He said it’s “inexcusable” for the health authority to cancel surgeries to pressure doctors, effectively putting patients in the centre of a labour dispute. Blair said the cancelled surgery time is now being reallocated to other ophthalmologists, so few if any patients should experience delays for procedures like cataract surgeries. “These cataract surgeries will get done,” he predicted. jnagel@surreyleader.com

METRO VANCOUVER directors

are holding firm against calls to make a new rapid transit line to the University of B.C. an equal priority with rapid transit expansion South of the Fraser. Metro’s proposed regional growth strategy puts the Evergreen Line to Coquitlam first, while second priority would go to rapid transit expansion in Surrey and Langley and extension along Vancouver’s Broadway corridor only as far as about Arbutus Street. Running the Broadway line further west to UBC should only be considered later, the plan says, in a third set of priorities that include enhanced transit for many other areas of the region. UBC student leaders told Metro’s regional planning committee Friday students waiting along Broadway routinely watch up to three full buses pass them by without stopping. “We’ve become victims of our own success,” said Alma Mater Society president Bijan Ahmadian, who said the lower priority for the UBC line threatens to delay the project and unravel the high rate of transit use among UBC students. “We have people all over the place being passed by buses,” countered Pitt Meadows Mayor Don McLean. He said UBC students who think a new $2-billion-plus line there will go in ahead of expansion in high-growth areas like Surrey “need a dose of reality” and may need to “suffer a little” while TransLink tackles needs in

the appropriate sequence. Other Metro directors, including Vancouver Coun. Andrea Reimer, questioned whether West Broadway and Point Grey residents would support a rapid transit line through their neighbourhood, and whether the transit-oriented development that would ensue is appropriate there. A better tactic might be to increase affordable student housing on campus to reduce transit reliance, Port Coquitlam Mayor Greg Moore said. Others noted use of the line would be less west through Point Grey than through the busiest central Broadway area, which is being given higher priority. Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan, who chairs the planning committee, said giving UBC equal weighting to South of Fraser would amount to failing to decide priority between the two and would make a promise to UBC students that’s unlikely be kept. “One thing you can take solace in is, historically, they’ve never listened to us,” Corrigan told students, noting the NDP government in the 1990s built the Millennium Line ahead of the priority Evergreen Line and then the Liberals did the same with the Canada Line. “Realistically, you’d probably be better talking to SNC-Lavalin and Bombardier about what the next choice will be than talking to us.” Regional mayors council chair Peter Fassbender urged students to lobby the province to find a solution to TransLink’s need for long-term funding to aggres-

sively expand transit. The UBC line priority could still be an issue when the growth strategy goes to a vote later this month. Reimer said she will pursue an amendment opening the door to earlier construction of a UBC line. Metro Vancouver chief administrator Johnny Carline cautioned the board not to simply create a loophole in the transit priority schedule to pander to UBC line backers. Money for transit is scarce, he said, and it’s critical it go to shape growth South of the Fraser, which will otherwise end up cardependent, harming the region’s sustainability. “That can’t be compromised by serving the UBC student population,” he said. But Carline said it might be acceptable to adjust the plan’s language to allow construction of a relatively cheap Bus Rapid Transit line to UBC, provided that spending doesn’t undermine Surrey expansion. The Surrey, Langley and Delta areas are forecast to grow by more than 500,000 residents and 250,000 jobs over the next three decades – a large part of the region’s future growth. Reimer said neighbouring cities forget that their residents actually make up half or more of the transit trips in Vancouver, so improvements there arguably help the entire region. She said the same can’t be said as easily for the reverse – upgrades in distant corners of the region. jnagel@surreyleader.com

Campbell staying on into 2011 Will implement wave of policy directives over the next several months by Tom Fletcher PREMIER GORDON Campbell intends to

Gordon Campbell will remain as MLA for Vancouver-Point Grey after his successor as Liberal party leader is chosen.

remain in charge for the next four to five months, implementing his latest wave of policy directives and directing the B.C. government as it heads into a spring budget. Last week Campbell announced he will leave office as soon as the B.C. Liberal Party can hold a leadership convention to replace him. He said he will stay on as premier until another leader is chosen, and remain as MLA for Vancouver-Point Grey after that. “We’ve launched a pretty aggressive program for the spring legislative agenda,” Campbell said. “We have the second-largest provincial income tax cut that we’ve had. We still have a budget to go through, initiatives with regard to early childhood learning and

development that we’re going to do. “We’ve got major initiatives to try and ensure we’ve got a stable health care system in the long term. I’ll be premier until that time.” Campbell said he expects the next party leader will support the 15-per-cent cut to personal income taxes starting Jan. 1, and “strengthening the private sector economy,” his key justification for implementing the Harmonized Sales Tax. A new leader from inside government will have been part of those decisions, and an outsider would support the philosophy that led to the government’s latest moves, he said. Campbell rejected suggestions that he was driven by low support in polls or an internal party effort to push him out. He said the decision point came after last week’s televised address, in which he unveiled the income tax

cut and expanded programs for early childhood education. “When people start talking about the premier’s popularity as opposed to a way of increasing people’s take-home pay, the premier’s popularity as opposed to how we can really lift our kids up and take full advantage of the opportunities of the education system in the 21st century, it’s clearly time for a change,” Campbell said. The B.C. Liberal Party’s biennial convention was set to begin Nov. 19 in Penticton. Party president Mickey Patryluk announced late Wednesday that it has been postponed until a leadership convention can be arranged. The party also released results of a members’ vote, saying 84 per cent of party members still supported Campbell as leader. tﬂetcher@blackpress.ca

Carol Peters sets world record in Hawaii

Delta’s Ironwoman C by Kevin Diakiw

arol Peters finds her bliss on the road, in the water and on the bicycle seat. The 60-year-old Delta woman feels it when her body crosses that invisible and movable line called endurance. She gets a dreamy sound to her voice when she talks about her triathlon events, which she tackles for the pure joy of it. “All of those events make me feel like a little kid again,” she says. “I think as children we all swam and biked and ran and that’s why I truly love them all.” Her passion paid off recently at the Ford Ironman World Championship in Hawaii on Oct. 9 when she beat the world record for her class (women between the age of 60 and 64) by 17 minutes. The premier triathlon event starts with a 2.4-mile swim, then a 112-mile bike ride and then is capped off with a 26.2-mile marathon. It was Peters’ tenth Ironman and she’s placed first in her class before, but her flawless race this month brought her the world record. “I knew the stats before I started, and I had this dream that if I had a perfect race, what would happen,” she said. “When I took the lead on the run, just after 10 miles, I thought, ‘oh my goodness. Don’t blow up, and hang on for the last 16 miles.’ ” The triathlon is a long-time passion of Peters, who lives to run, swim and ride.

“I don’t even think of it as training.” Carol Peters

The first time she remembers running was about 32 years ago in Hawaii. She was snacking by the hotel pool, while her husband played tennis, and she felt bored. She thought she might try a run. Seventeen miles later, she was back. She really caught the running bug 29 years ago when she started running marathons and triathlons. “It’s a wonderful passion, it keeps you so healthy, and it’s a hobby,” she said. “This is a lifestyle for me, I don’t even think of it as training,” she said. “My sons are older, so I get to play a lot.” She characterizes the distance events like a moving meditation. “I just love it, you hit that zone, it’s just marvelous,” she says. Despite her recent achievement, she describes her husband as the endurance athlete: “He’s put up with me for 36 years.”

She’s now in an offtraining period, but she says at her age, she just can’t use that time to “go bowling.” There’s always the next event, which will likely be the Seattle Marathon on Nov. 28. So she continues with three workouts a week in the three disciplines (run, bike, swim) as

well as weight training and yoga. Now that she’s captured the world record, she was caught the other day thinking about what her next challenge would be. “It’s about having that world challenge attitude and adding it to the rest of my life,” she says. kdiakiw@surreyleader.com

TSN will provide complete coverage of the four-day event. The tournament slogan is “You Gotta Be Here” and Hansen said they are looking to build on the huge success the sport enjoyed in Vancouver. The women’s gold medal game drew a national TV audience of six million, while the men’s match had seven million viewers, he said. “We are delighted to host,” said Mayor Rick Green. “It will create enormous exposure for our community and for this facility.”

The Surrey/North Delta Leader

Far from gone, gone, gone Chilliwack’s still rockin’ after 40 years and headed Surrey’s way by Sheila Reynolds

ack in 1970, if you had asked Bill Henderson whether he thought he’d still be in his then-new band in 40 years, he would likely have answered a resounding “no.” Sure, he knew he’d be playing music – it was his passion. But as he well knew, bands came and went and changed names and members in the blink of an eye. Very few, if any, lasted for several decades. But his band, Chilliwack, has proven an exception. Henderson, lead vocalist and guitarist, has been with the Canadian rock group from the beginning. “I didn’t think people would still be into this music 40 years later,” he said during a phone interview from his home on Saltspring Island, where he’s lived for 17 years. Formerly The Collectors, the band, minus it’s original lead singer, changed its name in 1970 and enjoyed its greatest success in the 1970s and 1980s with songs such as “My Girl (Gone Gone Gone) and “Whatcha Gonna Do” and “California Girl.” Chilliwack released 12 albums from 1969 to 1985 and has had 38 hits in Canada and the United States – 18 reaching the top 40. Henderson said while there’s a portion of the population – the baby boomers – who still closely relate to the music, a younger following has also formed, something he considers quite an accomplishment seeing as Chilliwack hasn’t recorded any new material. “We’re still playing the old songs. But the commitment we make to live performance, I think, is unusual. I don’t think that very many bands make that deep a commitment – it’s right in the moment,” explained Henderson. “It’s grown an audience, very slowly, because it’s live performance and by word of mouth. When you get into it that far you get into realms of your imagination and awareness that’s at a higher level. It’s exciting and the audience feels it too.” The multi-generational fan base has kept Chilliwack’s music very much alive. Bill Henderson “Radio is playing our music just as much as they ever did. It just blows my mind.” The band lineup is the same as it’s been for the last 14 years: Jerry Adolphe, who toured with the band in the ’80s, on drums; bassist Doug Edwards, who Henderson has known since the late ’60s; and Bill’s younger brother Ed on guitar. The quartet plays about 20 to 25 live shows per year across Canada. “It’s a restricted diet, but it’s a lot of fun,” Henderson laughed. But he says when the guys do head out, they have a great time. “We’re very professional. That word has a cold sound to it, but the heart of it, what it really comes down to, is that when you get on stage to do a show, you do everything that it takes to make it happen. The whole thing is to get high and get everybody high. That’s what a professional musician does and we take that very seriously.” Full stadium or small pub, performance is key. He recalls a New Year’s 2000 gig in Port Alberni when only 13 people showed up. It was in a large banquet hall that felt awkwardly empty. The band, however, didn’t treat it differently than any other show and went full-tilt. “The people had an outrageously good time. “We don’t look at it like ‘oh, this one’s not worthy’... we don’t take that position.” The songs they play remain the same. Henderson says he doesn’t have a favourite tune (“they’re all my babies”), and that the music Chilliwack brings to stage is simply “the best of 40 years.” As for the 40-year mark, Henderson says “there’s no stable marker.” When you’re a kid, 40 years seems ancient, he says. And even in your 20s, 40 seems a lifetime away. But once “well past” middle age, 40 years doesn’t seem like a long time.

“Radio is playing our music just as much as they ever did. It just blows my mind.”

FILE PHOTO / THE LEADER

Bill Henderson brings his classic Canadian band Chilliwack to Surrey on Nov. 27. The group is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year.

“That’s the interesting thing about time, the clock lies. It’s not a stable thing at all.” His memories of the start of Chilliwack, remain vivid. The band had a different way of playing – and it was a pivotal time in the world of music, he says. “There was a whole movement that was about breaking all the rules and making challenging music. A lot of people were doing that kind of thing, so I don’t feel like we were out on a limb. But I do feel we were kind of pioneers in that regard.” These days, Chilliwack performances often serve as benefits for charities or other causes. A concert in Surrey at month’s end is a fundraiser for Eureka Camp Society, an organization that provides camp experiences for kids eight to 18 with “invisible disabilities” such as attention deficit disorder or Asperger’s Syndrome. Fundraising gigs are something the band embraces. “We do lots of them,” says Henderson. “It just feels like a good thing to do. It’s your community – you want it to thrive.” Chilliwack performs at the Bell Performing Arts Centre, 6250 144 St., on Nov. 27 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $35, available by calling 604-507-6355 or at www.bell performingartscentre.com

Laying a foundation for community health Surrey Firefighters Charitable Society has delivered the latest gift in its $500,000 pledge to Surrey Memorial Hospital Foundation’s Emergency Centre Campaign. Foundation board director Bruce Hayne and president and CEO Jane Adams thanked firefighters for their latest contribution of $70,000, which will support mental health and addictions treatment within the new Emergency Centre, scheduled for 2013.

Surrey-Fleetwood MLA Jagrup Brar donated $250 to the Surrey Memorial Hospital Foundation with funds raised at his secondannual corn roast at the recent Fleetwood Community Festival.

The Tzu Chi Foundation has raised a further $31,141 for Surrey Memorial Hospital Foundation’s Emergency Centre Campaign.

Walmart has donated $5,000 to Surrey Memorial Hospital Foundation to celebrate the grand opening of its latest Supercentre at 12451 88 Ave. Walmart representatives Ashkan Dana and Rebecca Stover presented the donation to the Foundation’s Sarah McDiarmid.

Thanks 4 Giving DELVIEW SECONDARY School has proven that a little school

can accomplish enormous things. On Oct. 14, after weeks of preparation, 400 students and staff headed out into the community to canvas for donations to Deltassist and the Surrey Food Bank. The Thanks 4 Giving event collected 15,630 cans of food, the school’s second highest total since the program started 18 years ago.

Afraj Gill, the recipient of 16 scholarships, is taking the message of motivation to high school students.

Motivated to perfection

Inspiring good deeds Dr. Aly Kanani of Guildford Orthodontic Centre presented Tanam Shahid with grand prize at Dr. Kanani’s 2010 Surrey Good Deed Awards. The Frank Hurt Secondary student won an Apple iPad. Hundreds of entrants wrote essays about what good deeds they did, what motivated them to do the deeds, and what they learned in the process. Other ﬁnalists included Akash Vig, Brendan Jarvis, Taylor Briggs, Rheagan McDougall Lade, Kennedy Primrose, HyunJi Hwang, Elizabeth Katherine Lee, Roshni Riar and the Lord Tweedsmuir Interact Club.

ou could say Afraj Gill is a perfect student. The 100 per cent acrossthe-board grade point average is right there on his high school transcript. His academic abilities, coupled with an arm’s length of community activities, helped land the Surrey high school graduate 16 scholarships, including a $34,000 entrance scholarship to Simon Fraser University. He began his studies in business at SFU Surrey this fall. But it wasn’t always this way. And that’s a message he has been taking to local schools – on his own initiative – to pitch the benefits of being motivated. “I think it was around the end of Grade 8 when I started thinking about what a person needs to do to be suc-

cessful,” says Gill, who came with his family to Canada from Chandigarh, India a decade ago and began Grade 2 as an ESL student. His parents sacrificed their jobs to give their two sons a better life. “I realized that working hard, at everything, was the only way to succeed. It was a revelation for me. I began looking at everything differently.” Not a “bright” student according to his own estimation, Gill worked intently on his studies and completed his Grade 12 courses in Grade 11 at Enver Creek Secondary School. He spent his final year active in more than a dozen clubs and served as student council president and president of the graduation committee. He has a black belt in tae kwon do and as an air cadet, learned to fly before he could drive.

SECT ION CO-ORDINATOR: BOAZ JOSEPH (PHONE 604-575-2 744)

Now a university student, Gill is spending his first semester growing into his academic program and plans to become involved in extra-curricular activities once he has a good feel for his classes. His goal is to be an entrepreneur and “financially independent.” He wants to travel the world and help “wherever there is a natural disaster.” Meanwhile the 18-year-old hopes to continue visiting local schools to encourage young people to take a realistic look at themselves and life in general. “It’s the time to look ahead, and right now, for young people, there are more distractions than ever,” he says. “What really feels good,” he adds, “is the feeling you get when you’ve worked hard for something. It just doesn’t get better than that.”
