$250,000 to quench our thirst

Toni Gillett can’t imagine what she’d do without the groceries she receives twice a month from the Surrey Food Bank. Hundreds of low-income seniors rely on the food bank for support each month.

Senior never thought she would need a food bank 79-year-old Guildford woman among elderly clients needing help by Boaz Joseph FINLAND, AUSTRALIA, India, China, Hong Kong. They were, among other countries, Toni Gillett’s workplaces until she retired. “For 30 years, I was an overseas correspondent for a major London newspaper,” she pours out slowly, deliberately, in a strong English accent. “Major,” she repeats. On the living room shelf in Gillett’s tidy

Guildford apartment sits a silver coffee pot from Saudi Arabia and a teapot from Sri Lanka. “I went to some absolutely marvelous places. I spent three weeks in Riyadh with the late King Faisal.” About five years after she wrote her last articles for magazines and newspapers (she didn’t retire at 65), the 79-year-old woman continues to read voraciously – two bags filled with paperbacks sit in her hallway waiting for return to the Guildford Library.

million, Metro Vancouver’s latest megaproject will be a big outlay for regional taxpayers, even though it’s basically a glorified water pipe. Construction begins next year on the Port Mann Water Supply Tunnel, replacing the existing water main across the Fraser River that delivers much of the drinking water for Surrey, Delta and Langley and is at a significant risk of failing. “It’s a lot of money, but it’s a high priority for us,” says Frank Huber, Metro’s division manager of engineering support and technical services. A tunnel boring machine will act like a mechanical mole to grind a onekilometrelong tunnel Frank Huber 30 metres below the bottom of the river, just downstream of the Port Mann Bridge. The completed tunnel will link up to two 60-metre deep shafts on either side of the river and ensure water from the Coquitlam reservoir continues to flow out of taps in the rapidly growing South-of-Fraser area.

“It’s a lot of money, but it’s a priority for us.”

Charred remains identified Mother-of-four’s body found in North Surrey

by Kevin Diakiw

A WOMAN found badly burned in a North Surrey ravine this month was a mother of four. Police have now identified the charred remains found on Nov. 13 as 34-year-old Tara Lynn Westgarde of Surrey. She was found near a Hydro right-of-way near 93A Avenue and Kenmore Drive (138 Street). Police say Westgarde was a mother of four children, ranging in age from 12 to 18 years old. Investigators are seeking public assistance to tighten the timeline from when she was last seen alive to the discovery of her body. She was last seen by a family member on Nov. 11 at about 12:40 p.m. Westgarde was 5’6” inches tall and weighed 120 pounds. She had blonde hair and blue eyes and had a butterfly and wolf tattoo on her right shoulder. Tara Lynn Westgarde Westgarde would use the surname of Fedorick and first name of Tiara from time to time. Her Facebook site shows a picture of her with two sons posted in April under a folder titled “New Beginnings.” Cpl. Dale Carr, spokesperson for the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team, said Westgarde was murdered and that her body was burned where it was left. She had a history of drug issues and was known to police in various communities throughout British Columbia. Information gathered to date has not identified Westgarde as someone involved in the local sex trade.

December: Crucial time for donations From Page 1 Usually, some fresh vegetables are included, although this time of year, there are fewer of those. Gillett is one of the three per cent of Surrey Food Bank clients who are seniors. And that number is growing. The Surrey Food Bank saw a 10-per-cent increase in clients this year over last. “We’re certainly seeing new faces,” says executive director Marilyn Herrmann. “Our operations manager is seeing new people every day.” Gillett’s reliance on the food bank began when she retired and realized she would not get a steady pension because she hadn’t worked in Canada since immigrating from the U.K. in 1967. (She became a Canadian citizen and kept her “home” in Canada despite working overseas).

“One day I realized I didn’t have enough food, so some friends of mine said, ‘We are going to the Surrey Food Bank, why don’t you come with us?’ “ She’s received food now for three years. But until her friends told her about it, Gillett didn’t know the food bank even existed. “I never thought I’d be in that position. Never.” What would she do without the Surrey Food Bank? “I dread to think. I really dread to think.” The Surrey Food Bank serves more than 15,000 people every month, providing $30,000 worth of food daily to nearly 300 families (about 1,000 people) living throughout Surrey and North Delta. December is a critical fundraising time

for the food bank – this year it needs to bring in $450,000 in order to stock the shelves for 2011. Herrmann acknowledges it will be a challenge, noting that many individuals – and businesses – are still recovering from the recession. Last year, the food bank raised $385,000. The non-profit organization receives no government funding, but through bulk-buying arrangements with grocery stores, each dollar donated to the food bank has its purchasing power doubled. Donations of non-perishable food items are also gratefully received. The Surrey Food Bank does not solicit door-to-door or over the phone. bjoseph@surreyleader.com

Water: Rates will be rising higher

Surrey North Delta Leader

From page 1 It will take three to four years to complete. When finished, the new tunnel will more than double the capacity of the existing main, which was laid in a trench at the bottom of the river in 1974 and covered in rip-rap. Engineers discovered it wasn’t adequately armoured in 1997 when raging Fraser floodwaters dislodged a section and knocked it out of service. Severe water restrictions ensued in the Surrey area until a quick-fix repair was done.

River erosion isn’t the only threat to the water line. “It would certainly fail in a moderate earthquake and maybe even in a minor one,” Huber said. “After a major earthquake, we want to be able to provide a certain amount of water to the communities throughout the region. This is a critical crossing to do that job.” If the existing main failed before the new one is finished in 2014, it would be a challenge, Huber said, but Metro could draw water across the Fraser through two smaller mains to meet basic water needs in Surrey.

All the region’s taxpayers will share in the cost of the new line under the Fraser, as they will with the $800-million SeymourCapilano Filtration Plant. Metro hopes to award the Fraser River job by the end of the year. The filtration plant and the Port Mann water tunnel are part of the reason Metro water rates will rise dramatically in the years ahead. Average Metro water bills jump 12 per cent to $213 per household next year – one step in a series of such increases. jnagel@surreyleader.com

SPCA: Sues to recover $85,000 From page 3 Ulmer was allowed to keep the other three, plus nine that were not being housed in the garage. During a series of unsuccessful court applications to win the return of her cats, Ulmer admitted the animals were in distress, but denied it was her fault, blaming an assistant. Ulmer said the reason some kennels had no food and water was because she was washing the food and water bowls in her dishwasher. The cats weren’t that thin, Ulmer argued, and she maintained she would have made them healthier if she’d been given more time. Her latest court challenge argued the SPCA should have given her more time to correct the conditions inside her house before it seized the animals. Her lawyer also argued the SPCA acted unreasonably in refusing to return her animals. Both claims were rejected by the judges in a unanimous decision. It was Ulmer’s second appearance before the Court of Appeal. In February of this year, the court refused to grant her an application to stop the SPCA from adopting out the animals until her full challenge of the seizure had been heard. About half the cats taken from Ulmer were given new homes, while the rest had to be euthanized. The cost of keeping and treating the seized animals at the Chilliwack animal shelter was estimated at $85,000. The SPCA is suing Ulmer in B.C. Supreme Court to recover the money. The chicken was treated at the Surrey SPCA shelter and found a new home.

LAST WEEK WE ASKED:

Have you ever had to use a food bank? Here’s how you responded: Yes 18% No 82% CONVALESCENT CARE

Fees add to personal burden

here has to be a better way. The $29.40 per day the province is charging patients in convalescent-care fees may make sense on paper. But I guarantee it makes no sense to people forced by the inexorable march of time and circumstance to walk the halls of convalescent-care facilities in search of meaningful help for our loved ones – most of whom are senior citizens of increasingly frail health. The very fact that some 10 per cent are already being excused the fees through hardship waivers is an admission the system is not working. Fraser Health spokesman Roy Thorpe said last week that since the fees took effect on April 19, only one waiver has been refused. In most cases, he said, the waiver has resulted in elimination of the fee altogether. One wonders how many of those who are struggling to pay almost $30 a day – at least $1,400 for an average convalescent stay – would continue to pay if they knew a waiver was available. Chances are, in the throes of ongoing health crises and the tough decisions that must be made, they and their families have no idea a waiver is possible. And it’s likely Fraser Health, which has already recouped some $400,000 in costs through these fees, doesn’t do much to advertise the fact. My guess is the fees Alex are an onerous burden to most recipients and/or their families, regardless of whether they have requested a waiver. It’s a fact, as even the premier of this province recently recognized, that many B.C. residents are living paycheque to paycheque. And how fair is it to those who pay, when others are having the fees waived? There are some costs that must be shouldered by our society through our taxes, no matter what pay-asyou-go theorists believe. Take a look in a convalescent care facility and you will discover the recipients of these services are not the robust, cheery senior citizens beloved of retirement community ads, investment come-ons or government brochures.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

PIT BULLS

Unless you have walked those halls, you don’t know how frail, confused and alone human beings can become. You cannot understand how abandoned or hopeless they feel, even when they are visited regularly by relatives who are doing their best to convey their love, caring and support. Unless you have walked those halls, you will not come face to face with the fact that advancing age, ultimately, is a prison of diminished possibilities, diminished ability to communicate and diminished ability to understand. It is into this situation, this sad stage in life, that the provincial government chooses to institute an arbitrary, draconian fee. Do I know whereof I speak? Indeed. My mother, who was a frail but relatively healthy woman of 89 until last November, when she fell and broke her hip, struggled through a chancy operation and was making a surprisingly good recovery until she went into convalescent care. This is not the place to air my suspicions of the quality of care she received at a particular facility – the one where she died at the end of February. But of this I have no doubt – being charged an additional $30 a day for such an experience would have confused and upset her. would not have wanted us to Browne payShe it for her. Neither would my father, but he would have been unable to pay it – and his understanding of financial matters was already becoming shaky (he passed away at the beginning of June). We would have had to borrow money to take care of the bill at a time when, like most, we are already pushed to make ends meet. But for my mother, it would have added a burden of stress that could only have hastened her demise. I can only thank heavens she didn’t live long enough to see the fees introduced in April.

‘Loose cannons’ simply speaking the truth Winter tips from ICBC

I WAS handing out flyers at the legislature protesting minister Mary Polak’s cuts to therapy for children with autism when Bill Bennett approached me. I didn’t know who he was then. He took a flyer and said he’d ask minister Polak about her cuts. The next day, he came by to say he had talked to her. He was a busy cabinet minister. This wasn’t his portfolio. I wasn’t one of his constituents. He took the time to become informed and talk to me. I sent him an e-mail thanking him. I was surprised to receive a reply saying it was

thoughtful of me to thank him for his ordinary courtesy. Bennett did solid work as co-chair of the Local Government Election Task Force. He showed leadership and teamwork bringing to cabinet the decision to contribute money to buy back the Western Forest Products (WFP) lands minister Rich Coleman gave away. He showed statesmanship giving Ida Chong credit for her advocacy on this. It was her inaction signing a Capital Regional District bylaw that let WFP create development lots in this land. He helped our democracy by

advocating changing the way Liberals elect their leaders, to reduce the toxic effects of bulk membership sign-ups. He spoke the truth. It is no wonder that more people of character and integrity do not enter politics, when the media and people who should know better brand them as loose cannons and mavericks.

Suites: Valuable housing for the poor THE CLEAR message I get from Sur-

rey council’s latest decision on the upcoming secondary suite bylaw is they and the staff do not care about the tens of thousands of poor people about to become homeless. According to Ken Woodward, Surrey’s property manager, there are 19,000 illegal secondary suites in single-dwelling houses. Who rents these illegal suites? The lowest-income people that exist, and considering there are few market apartment units available and no social housing units available for years to come, where will the soonto-be-evicted find housing? The cost of the secondary suites, one-bedroom size, range from $450$650 per month and include Hydro and cable or satellite, and sometimes Internet. The cost of the advertised, legal market rental units range from $725-1,100 per month for only for the space and a parking stall. All utilities are extra costs. The monthly income reality for the poorest people living in Surrey are: 1). Minimum wage earners’ net income $1,200, and they’re eligible for the provincial $100 rental subsidy; 2). Persons with a disability, in excellent health, net $906 with the okay to make a maximum of $500 without penalty, but many do not for a sundry of reasons, and are not eligible for the rental subsidy; and 3). Single, employable income assistance recipients, in excellent health, net $610 and any income is deducted penny-for-penny and are not eligible for the rental subsidy. I have excluded seniors because the vast majority of available social housing is allocated for them. It is clear, those of us who are in the lowest income brackets are disposable to Surrey city hall. Or, their will is to have us leave altogether and mitigate the need to spend time, energy and money on social housing. Our contribution to the landlord’s mortgage is completely ignored. It is always the double-standard, exploitative environment that creates frustration, which eventually turns into a volatile situation for the community as a whole. This is what Surrey wants? So be it, they are sowing the seeds. Alysen Cameron, Surrey

How about enforcement? RE: “MANOR homes with

multiple suites proposed,” The Leader, Nov. 17. I find this news item to be extremely disheartening as our neighbourhood has been dreading the day when this would come to pass. This is just another example of how Surrey and its less-thaneffective leaders have let this city go straight to hell. There is so much more involved then just allowing these suites to be legitimized. Stop and think of the parking, and the extra burden on our schools and infrastructure without having the ability to properly tax the people taking advantage of the long-time residents and taxpayers of this region. We would be much better served if the bylaws officers would actually enforce our bylaws as opposed to only acting on complaints. This protocol only serves to make things worse and worse for those that came before. It only stands to reason that if most of the residents of an area are all in contravention of the bylaws and no one calls in a complaint then it never gets rectified and only gets worse. This is exactly the scenario we are now faced with in Surrey. Too many illegal suites to do anything about, and too many people have already paved their front yards for parking and businesses being run from the home with no regard for the bylaw which states: there can be n indication of a home-based business i.e. signage, etc. Just let me say I am so glad Mayor Watts decided not to enter provincial politics because I dread to see what she would let happen if she were in power. Dwayne Kaban, Surrey

Affordability should not be the main concern THE ISSUE of illegal suites is

not about affordable housing.

Letter writers sound off about the beneﬁts – and drawbacks – of secondary suites.

Anyone who has had to rent one knows they are not all affordable. Safety, heat, hot water and just plain being treated with respect also fall into play. These houses need to be properly inspected and passed by the building code inspectors for multiple suite dwellings, the fire marshal for proper fire exits,

and revenue properly taxed. No more free rides. The approval by the immediate neighbourhood is an exceptionally good idea and puts the onus on the developer to put up the proper signage to say what they intend to do or face stiff penalties before the courts. Paul Fitzgerald, Cloverdale

WITH BELOW-FREEZING tem-

peratures across B.C. , and rain and black ice likely on the roads by the weekend, ICBC has these following tips to help you stay safe on the roads: Equip your vehicle: Preparing your vehicle for winter driving comes down to much more than just choice of tires. Don’t use cruise control on slippery roads; check your tire pressure as they can deflate quickly in the cold; lowbeam lights are more effective in the snow; and keep your gas tank full to prevent freezing in extreme temperatures. Keep a blanket in your car just in case you are unfortunate enough to get stranded in these wintery conditions. You can find more tips on icbc.com. Adapt your behaviour: While preparing vehicles for winter driving is vital, nothing is more important than adjusting behaviour as drivers. When you see a speed limit – for instance, 90 km/h on a highway – that’s the limit in ideal road conditions. Conditions in bad weather are not ideal so slow down and leave more space between you and other vehicles on the road. When things get slippery: One of the most challenging road hazards at this time of year is black ice – it’s virtually impossible to see ahead of time, and that’s why it’s so important to slow down and try and anticipate what’s ahead. While it can be a natural reaction to slam on the brakes, the best thing you can do is try and slow your vehicle down to regain traction – ease off the accelerator and shift to a lower gear if possible. If you need to use the brake, be aware of the differences between using standard and ABS brakes. Know your journey: Road conditions can vary greatly depending on where you are in the province. If you’re setting out from the Lower Mainland and driving to the southern Interior, for example, be aware that the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure can designate winter tires to be required on certain roads and highways. If you are driving on these roads without winter tires, police can ticket you and make you turn back. Drivebc. ca is a resource to consult ahead of time. If the worse happens: If you are unfortunate enough to be in a crash, ICBC is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Customers in the Lower Mainland can reach ICBC on the Dial-a-Claim line by calling 604-520-8222. Those who are elsewhere in, or outside of, B.C. can dial 1-800-910-4222.

A PLEA for financial leniency

regarding Government Assisted Refugees (GARs) has been declined by the federal minister in charge. Responding to a request from Canadian municipalities, immigration minister Jason Kenney said he has no plans to forgive transportation loans for GARs. Surrey is home to more than 40 per cent of this province’s GARs, most of whom are burdened with weighty interest-bearing loans from the Canadian government. The “transportation loans” have been a bone of contention for refugee groups, Surrey council and Canadian municipalities for some time. GARs are some of the most desperate refugee cases from abroad. The U.N. Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees decides whether an individual must leave a country for their own safety. Those headed for Canada are referred to a visa agent in that country. Before they can leave, Canadian-bound GARs must sign a loan for up to $15,000 to pay for travel and a medical exam before they arrive. Studies show repaying the transportation loans puts a significant burden on refugee families when they arrive in Canada. A recent study also showed many or most in Surrey are under-feeding their families in order to pay back the loans. Many mistakenly believe if the loans are not paid back quickly, they’ll be sent back to a refugee camp.

What makes life good for teenagers? Study probes factors that keep kids away from gangs by Sheila Reynolds STUDENTS IN several Surrey high schools will be given surveys – if their parents consent – to help figure out what keeps them on a positive path and away from violence and gangs. Acting Together, a Kwantlen Polytechnic University project, is working with the Surrey School District to provide questionnaires to Grade 8 and 9 students. The surveys will ask teens things such as what extracurricular activities, like sports or music classes, they’re involved in, or whether there’s an adult in the community they feel they could go to if there was a problem. The goal, says project co-investigator Dr. Roger Tweed, is to attempt to determine what factors help kids stay out of trouble. “We’re taking a little different perspective on it by looking at strengths that we can build up rather than problems to avoid,” he said. “All kids, no matter where they come from, have some strengths.” Those strong points, said Tweed, might not necessarily be something they’re good at, but could be a character strength or good social connection. Teachers and parents that wish to participate will also be asked to answer questions on where kids’ Dr. Roger social connections and character Tweed assets. Acting Together is a five-year project that will include a range of studies, surveys and community events. Researchers hope to collect data from at least 600 youth this semester, but would like to return for a second semester to question the teens again. And if permitted, researchers would also like to follow up with the same students in future years. “A lot can change in four months for a youth – even more can change in a year or two,” said Tweed. While a couple of Surrey high schools have already begun the survey process, others have yet to participate. Parents of students in the selected schools will receive a consent form with more information on the project. It’s hoped the results of the research can eventually be used to help community groups, academics, schools and residents better prevent youth violence. Tweed admits the study isn’t necessarily the first to focus on the positive perspective of young people’s lives, but believes the approach is unique. “We will try to break down relationships to those they have at home, at school, with friends and within the community. What we’d like to see is that there’s someone in all those areas who cares for them, someone with high expectations – and someone that’ll listen to them.”

Surrey, Delta officers cited at police awards Annual gala held in Victoria officers acting in a manner “significantly beyond the standards normally expected.” The Nov. 18 ceremony at Government House was overseen by Lt.-Gov. Steven Point and B.C. Solicitor General Rich Coleman. “These 58 individuals epitomize what makes the uniform they wear and the badges they carry enduring symbols of public safety,” Coleman said. The Police Honours Banquet has been held every year since 1981. Honourees are selected by a committee comprised of representatives from the B.C. Association of Chiefs of Police and the Policing and Community Safety Branch, Ministry of Public Safety and Solicitor General.

Black Press MEMBERS OF the

Delta Police Department (DPD) and the Surrey RCMP detachment were among 58 officers recognized at the annual Police Honours banquet in Victoria last week. The Award of Valour went to DPD Const. Kevin Dueck, who confronted two armed and masked men as they were about to enter a 7-Eleven convenience store, and to Surrey RCMP Staff Sgt. David Eidet and Const. John Hanson, who confronted a gunman who was holding residents of a house hostage. It is B.C.’s highest award, issued to officers who knowingly risk their lives to protect others. Awards for meritorious service were

collected by two DPD officers, one who asked not to be named for preventing a driver from drowning while trapped upsidedown in a water-filled ditch, and the other to Const. Brittney Dawson, who together with a New Westminster police officer attempted to resuscitate an unconscious man they pulled from a burning vehicle.

The same award was handed to Surrey RCMP Const. Laura Malo, who was a member of the provincial Integrated Sexual Predator Observation Team that successfully located a missing 11-year-old girl and her abductor. The meritorious service award recognizes exemplary performance by

Tuesday, November 30 5:00pm - 7:00pm Holland Park King George Blvd. & 100 (Old Yale Road)

Delta is facing criminal charges after a violent abduction near Edmonton last week. Edmonton Eskimos defensive tackle Adam Braidwood was arrested along with two other men. Police said a fourth man was forced into the trunk of a car last Friday afternoon in Spruce Grove, a city of 24,000 people about 11 kilometres west of Edmonton. Alerted by a witness, police caught up with the car on a rural road around 5:30 p.m. They arrived to find the shirtless victim standing outside the car with what appeared to be significant injuries to his arms and legs. There were three other men, one standing outside the car and two sitting inside. The victim is from Stony Plain, a town of 12,000 located 17 kilometres west of Edmonton. He was taken to an Edmontonarea hospital for non-life-threatening injuries. The 6’4”, 274-lb. Braidwood, 26, was arrested at the scene. He and 25-year-old Shane Bergstrom and 23-year-old Taylor Kurtz have all been charged with aggravated assault and forcible confinement. They were released from jail Adam after posting cash bail and were Braidwood scheduled to return to court Wednesday morning in Stony Plain. Edmonton Eskimo General Manager Eric Tillman released a brief statement on the incident Tuesday. “Spruce Grove/Stony Plain RCMP notified the club of the charges against Adam Braidwood. As the matter is now before the courts, the club will not offer further comment until the legal process has concluded.” Braidwood played high school football with the Seaquam Seahawks before attending the Washington State University (WSU). He spent four seasons with the WSU Cougars before he was drafted first overall by the Eskimos in the 2006 CFL Canadian Draft. He has played three seasons in Edmonton over the past five years, sitting out the 2008 and 2009 campaigns with injuries. In his second CFL season, he led the Eskimos with seven quarterback sacks. This past season, his first in three years, he made 20 tackles, had four sacks and recovered two fumbles in 14 games played. Braidwood has also competed professionally in Mixed Martial Arts and boxing, earning the ring name “The Boogeyman.”

The tree will be on display at Holland Park over the next two months for all to enjoy. Surrey will also be decorating streetscapes with lights to welcome the winter season.

loiter around a lone tenant’s suite. The sound of a window breaking is heard near a ground floor apartment building. Stolen property is visible outside a vacant townhouse. These are warning signs of crime that can be prevented. How to do so was discussed on Wednesday, Nov. 24, when the City of Surrey and Surrey RCMP hosted another information session on its “Crime Free Multi-Housing” program, designed to help owners, managers and residents keep illegal and nuisance activity off their rental properties. “By taking property owners through the steps necessary to create an environment where crime cannot flourish, we are helping them work towards improving the quality of life for their residents,” said Tanya Wong, Crime Free Multi-Housing coor-

dinator. “Essentially, it is a way for managers to become more proactive and involved in their community.” Now in its sixth year of operation, the program has expanded to all areas of the city and currently has approximately 40 rental properties certified under its “crimefree” banner. Ken Thompson is one of the more recent building managers to have his property certified by the program when he was the manager of a rental housing complex in Surrey’s City Centre. “I had a lot of problems with break-ins and other illegal activity,” Thompson said. “But the program opened my eyes to what my rights were as a manager and what I could do to reduce these problems.” Now a building manager for Barclay Arms Apartments in South Surrey, one of Thompson’s first orders of business was to ensure that his new building would be

we have had a car broken into since.” As part of the program, a representative for the Surrey RCMP will conduct a thorough security assessment of the property and provide recommendations for improvement. This can be anything from ensuring locks on doors and window are working properly to tips on how to improve landscaping so that the property is not conducive to illegal activity. “It is similar to the Block Watch program which is aimed at homeowners instead of rental property managers and their residents,” Wong added. “Although Crime Free MultiHousing has been since the early ‘90s, we are proud to be one of the earliest cities to adopt the program.” For more information about the Crime Free Multi-Housing program contact Tanya Wong at 604599-7747.

Bring dogs inside: SPCA Frigid weather dangerous Black Press BRING YOUR dog inside.

That’s the plea from BC SPCA cruelty investigators after responding to dozens of calls across the province about dogs left outside in record-breaking frigid temperatures. “It’s absolutely preposterous to leave a dog – particularly a short-haired breed like a pit bull – outside in this weather,” said Eileen Drever, adding dogs that do not have

tigations, said the society has already seized dogs this week that were being kept outside without proper shelter. “People tend to think that because a dog has fur, or is used to living outside, he’ll be okay, but that’s a fatal assumption and it could cost your dog his life.” One of the most tragic cases in recent memory involved a cruelty investigation in Prince George where three dogs were being kept outside in sub-zero temperatures, with one of the dogs already dead in his outdoor kennel. A second dog was found huddled in a barren dog house suffering from a bladder infection because she wouldn’t leave the dog house to urinate. The BC SPCA opposes keeping dogs exclusively outdoors, and last year launched a campaign called “Break the Chains

of Suffering” aimed at educating guardians about backyard dogs. Dogs that are kept outside all the time – no matter what the weather – can suffer physical and psychological harm. “At the very minimum under the law, you must make sure your dog has adequate food, water and shelter,” said Drever. “His dog house must be elevated, he should have straw bedding to keep his body temperature up, the door should have a flap to keep the wind out and he should have food and water.” Drever adds that farm animals are also susceptible to the weather and should be brought into the barn when the temperature drops. Animals expend more energy in cold weather so it’s also a good idea to increase the food they are given, she said.

smells as wonderful for the Christmas season as fresh greens inside our homes. It’s good to see a trend towards more traditional Christmas decorating. There are all types of fresh greens you can enjoy indoors, but I always look for two qualities: how long they will stand up under dry conditions and are they fragrant. For both longevity and fragrance, it is hard to beat pine. All pine varieties have a wonderful scent, but one of the most attractive is Pinus strobus or white pine.

tional European greens arrangement. Using a piece of florist’s oasis in a low bowl, arrange a variety of colourful green tips from yellow, blue, gold, green and bronze foliaged trees. A twisted stem of contorted filbert, one or two tall thin candles, bits of moss and a few dried perennials can be added for a finishing touch. It’s a very creative way to wow your friends and guests, and it will last right through the festive season. Cut branches are no different than cut flowers, especially deciduous holly, Ilex verticulata, with its stunning red berries. Seven to ten days is about the maximum time for any greens to be indoors without being in water. Try to have an extra supply on hand so you can replenish your creations and keep them fresh looking. By cutting about one inch off the bottom of each stem and by keeping them in room temperature water, the life span of most greens can be tripled. Decorative branches of contorted willow and filbert or the stunning brilliant yellow and red branches of twig dogwoods look great in a vase by themselves, indoors or out. My favourite are the branches of Midwinter Fire which is a yellow and orange bicolour dogwood. Christmas greens are so nice inside our homes at this time of year. They’re inexpensive, natural and fragrant. To enjoy them longer, be sure to mist them often and keep them in water if at all possible.

Entrepreneur students use school project to help homeless by Hannah Sutherland MORE THAN 200 homeless people are better pre-

pared for the winter thanks to a group of Surrey university students who used a school assignment to sell and distribute care packages to those in need. Charles Konopski, Kelly Saunders, Amar Phull and Harsh Thakkar – in their fourth year of Kwantlen Polytechnic University’s entrepreneurial leadership program – came up with the idea after being tasked with developing and executing a business plan in five weeks. While some of their peers chose to sell products such as coffee mugs, the four partners were compelled to create a business model that would make a difference in people’s lives. They formed Students for Homeless, and set a goal to collect pledges for 200 care packages designated for homeless people on Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. Donors could choose between $15 and $25 packages containing items such as thermal blankets, socks, gloves, tuques and first-aid supplies, which the students purchased at wholesale costs. The group also included a map they created that marks shelters and soup kitchens on the Downtown Eastside. The goods were put in large plastic bags, which they said recipients can use to keep dry. Students for Homeless collected pledges through personal contacts, corporate support, its website (www.studentsforhomeless.org) and by setting up a

booth for five days outside a South Surrey grocer. They raised a total of $4,800, allowing them to assemble 238 kits. The group handed out the packs last weekend while homeless people lined up in Vancouver for soup served by non-profit society Food on the Corner. The students plan to email pictures of the distribution to those who donated. Konopski, a City of White Rock employee, said he realized how big a difference something simple can make after volunteering with Food on the Corner about a year ago. “I saw how much (homeless people) appreciated getting a loaf of bread or a bowl of soup. They were so appreciative and happy for that small gift,” he said. “Any little thing means a lot.” It feels good knowing their efforts have made a positive impact, Saunders added. “I’m really happy that we went with something that will benefit other people rather than just giving us a grade,” the South Surrey resident said. Now the project is complete, Konopski said they plan to pitch in their own money to buy additional packages, some of which will be handed out to homeless people on the Peninsula. The group is also looking to register Students for Homeless as a charity, he noted, and continue the work every winter. “We really believe in the cause and we want to support it further.”

$50K for arts festival Province provides funds for Olympic anniversary party Black Press

THE ARTS Council of Surrey has received $50,000 to host a local community festival in February to commemorate the 2010 Olympics. The money comes as part of $1 million doled out province-wide through the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sport and Arts Legacy program. Recipients are expected to â&#x20AC;&#x153;use their creative energyâ&#x20AC;? to lead a B.C. Spirit Festival in the community in 2011 that will bring together artists, cultural organizations and citizens to celebrate the spirit of B.C. Featured activities will include visual arts exhibitions, public museum programs, publications,

media arts, dance, music and theatre productions. The Assembly of BC Arts Councils is administering the BC Spirit Festivals program. With help from a panel of judges representing B.C.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s arts and culture community, the assembly adjudicated applications from regional and aboriginal arts organizations in communities across the province. Funding for the spirit festivals comes from the $60-million 2010 Sport and Arts Legacy, established by the Province to help celebrate the pride and spirit shown by British Columbians during the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games - and the Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad. newsroom@surreyleader.com

Falcons fall in B.C. final Surrey Christian coach ‘proud’ of second place ﬁnish by Rick Kupchuk

First wins for Eagles by Rick Kupchuk THE KWANTLEN Polytechnic Uni-

THEY WERE a blocked shot, a missed scoring

chance, a mistimed kick away from forcing overtime in the B.C. championship game. But Surrey Christian Falcons head coach Doug Stuart won’t think of the second place finish at this week’s Senior AA boys high school tournament when assessing his soccer team. He will only look at the effort put forth over the five games while praising their play. “If you base it solely on the accomplishment, you’ll be disappointed,” Stuart said after the Falcons fell 2-1 to the Sahali Sabres Wednesday afternoon at the Burnaby Lakes Sports Complex. “They need to know how proud I am of them. I told them right from the start of the season, what defined them wasn’t whether they won or lost, it was who they are as people. “I don’t think there’s any regrets, the guys left it all out on the field.” Stuart praised the Falcons for improving a third place finish at the Fraser ValDoug Stuart ley championship tournament into the runnerup placing at the provincials, saying the 2-1 win over the defending provincial champion Sands Scorpions at the valley tournament – which eliminated a Sands team which went 10-0-0 (won-lost-tied) and sent the 5-3-2 Falcons to the provincials – was a turning point in the season. “Something changed in our mindset after that game,” Stuart said. “They suddenly realized they could beat anyone. From there we didn’t lose a game until this one today.” Surrey Christian opened the tournament with a scoreless tie against Richmond’s R.C.Palmer Griffins Monday morning, then defeated the Rockridge Ravens of West Vancouver 3-0 later in the day. On Tuesday morning, they wrapped up first place in their group by edging the David Thompson Lakers of Invermere 2-1. In Tuesday afternoon’s semifinal, Surrey Christian needed overtime to stop the Tim-

“I don’t think there’s any regrets, the guys left it all out on the ﬁeld.”

Senior AA boys provincial championship game Wednesday at the Burnaby Lake Sports Complex. Sahali won 2-1. berline Wolves 2-1. The Falcons were forced to come from behind in Wednesday’s championship game, giving up the game’s first goal late in the first half, then allowing what proved to the winner midway through the second. David Malamura got one goal back for Surrey Christian, pushing the ball around

a pair of Sabres defenders before beating Sahalia netminder Sho Yamamoto with a low shot just inside the near post. The Falcons continued to press until the final whistle, but Yamamoto made two outstanding saves while Surrey Christian failed to convert a number of other scoring chances.

versity Eagles men’s and women’s basketball teams both broke into the win column on the weekend, securing victories over the Columbia Bible College (CBC) Bearcats of Abbotsford last weekend in B.C. Colleges Athletic Association (BCCAA) play. Both Kwantlen teams had dropped their first three games of the season, but by sweeping the weekend series over CBC, the Eagles women moved into a three-way tie for the sixth and final BCCAA playoff position. Kwantlen won the first game Friday night, holding the Bearcars to just two second half field goals in a 68-61 win.The Eagles were paced by Fleetwood Park graduate Taminder Dhaliwal with 25 points. The Eagles dominated the second game Saturday, building a 40-18 lead by halftime and earning a 72-52 win. Mel Poce, Chantelle Doerksen and Becca Gaukel tied for the Eagles team lead in scoring with 14 points each, while forward Samantha McPhail collected 10 rebounds off the bench. The Kwantlen had to wait until Saturday for their first win, after they lost a tight 82-79 contest Friday night. The second contest was even closer, with the Eagles winning 81-79. “It was a very good win for the guys,” says coach Bernie Love. “They have lost a lot of close games, so I was happy for their hard work to finally be rewarded.” Doug Meyers paced Kwantlen Saturday with 22 points and six rebounds, while rookies Harpreet Randhawa added 20 points and eight rebounds and Julio Epondulon contributed with 17 points and six rebounds. Both the men and women will host the Camosun Chargers this weekend, with games at 6 p.m. (women) and 8 p.m. (men) tonight (Friday) and Saturday.

Seaquam responded with Tyler Green’s three-yard run on fourth down to force a second overtime session. The Seahawks ran a fake field goal attempt which was stopped. Mission then booted a field goal from 25 yards out for the win. Ethan Sadowski led all Seahawks on defense with seven tackles, with Anthony Speranza, Keane Fraser, Cam Laidlaw, and Kevin Tait also playing outstanding games.

Frank Hurt stopped the Howe Sound Sounders 17-0 last Saturday afternoon on a snow-covered field at the University of British Columbia’s Thunderbird Stadium. The Hornets took the lead late in the first quarter on a touchdown from Jeremy Reid, a score converted by Daniel Mikl. Jake Reiter’s touchdown run and the convert by Mikl upped the difference to 14-0 by half time. Mikl booted a field goal in the fourth quarter to put the game out of reach. The Hornets will kick off against the Belmont Bulldogs of Victoria in the championship game tomorrow at 12:30 at Thunderbird Stadium. The Bulldogs finished first in the seven-team Island conference with a 6-0 (won-lost) record, allowing just 46 points in those six games. The Hornets were the first place team in the Western Conference with a 4-2 mark, averaging 27.5 points per game while surrendering just 16.7. Q The snow didn’t slow down either offence in a Senior AA quarterfinal contest at Thunderbirds Stadium. Unfortunately for the Seaquam Seahawks, the Mission Roadrunners converted a field goal opportunity in overtime for a 37-34 triumph Saturday afternoon. The Seahawks trailed 20-13 at halftime, but were soon up by a major score after Ethan Sadowski returned a fumble 24 yards to tie the contest, then Mark Lego ran for his third touchdown of the day to cap a 98-yard drive and give Seaquam a 27-20 advantage.

Defence gives lift to Bengals Cloverdale, North Delta advance to semiďŹ nal round by Rick Kupchuk

A DEFENSIVE STOP in overtime lifted the Cloverdale Bengals to a 24-21 victory over the Nanaimo Redmen in a B.C. Minor Football quarterfinal playoff game Sunday at Cloverdale Athletic Park. Tied 21-21 after regulation time, the Bengals were forced to kick a field goal on their first possession in the tiebreaker, and Daniel Erickson was good from 20 yards out. Nanaimo drove the ball close to the end zone on their possession, but Cloverdale defenders Jeff Paras and Patrick Gurtas forced a Redmen fumble at the two-yard line, which the Bengals recovered to

end the game. Shane Ram, Cameron McNabb and Tyrel McDonald scored the Cloverdale touchdowns, each major score converted by Erickson. The offence was led by the rushing of Ryan Hoosman, Patrick Cho, McDonald and quarterback Ram, who also completed passes to Sheldon Van Roon and Mitch Robertson. Top defensive performers were tackling leaders Cho and Paras, and Max Gouette with a fumble recovery. Cloverdale linemen on both sides of the ball helped control the line of scrimmage, with Gurtas, Grouette, Andrew Heubert, Brad Goodchild, Manny Gill, Justin

Dinbandhu and Kirtus Bussman all playing strong games. The Bengals will host the Victoria Spartans in a semifinal contest Sunday at 1 p.m. at Cloverdale Athletic Park. The other semifinal will see the North Delta Longhorns at home against the Mission Niners, kickoff at 2 p.m. at John Oliver Park. Q Two local teams are in Vancouver Mainland Football League championship games Sunday at Minoru Park in Richmond. The Cloverdale Lions will play in the Atom Division final against the Westside Warriors at 10 a.m. In the Bantam division final at 3 p.m., the North Surrey Tigers take to the field with the Langley Mustangs.

The secretive world of a Canadian artist

The Surrey/North Delta Leader

Talk about painter Donald Flather takes place Dec. 2 at the Surrey Art Gallery

Black Press

r. Donald M. Flather, who passed away in 1990, was an accredited Caanadian landscape artist, teacher and pioneer. He counted Lawren Harris of the Group of Seven, and Emily Carrr as friends, and he was one of the original founding members of the Federation of Canadian Artists. On Dec. 2 at 7:30 p.m. as part of the Thursday Artist Talk speaker series at the Surrey Art Gallery, Donald’s grandson David Flather will give a multimediaa presentation about his esteemed grandfather. A selection of images of Donald’s well-known landscape paintings – which cover almost every corner of Canada, including Surrey – as well as of his lesser-known abstract paintings will be shown. Additionally, some of Donald’s original paintings and limited edition prints will be available for viewing. David will also share how cataloguing his grandfather’s many paintings helped him to recall his own journeys across B.C. as a semi-pro downhill mountain bike racer. David toured to many of the places his grandfather had once visited and painted. Donald came to Vancouver in his 20s, graduating from UBC with bachelor and master degrees, and from the University of Washington with a PhD in education. He combined his roles of teacher, botanist, biologist, scientist and painter and successfully integrated his knowledge with his art. His style combines elements of French Impressionism and the Group of Seven. Over his lifetime, Donald produced more than 400 paintings, yet it has only been since his passing that his paintings have begun to be exhibited to the public, first by Donald’s sons and then by David. Donald’s paintings are now widely held in collections in Canada, Asia, Indonesia, the USA and Britain. Many of Donald’s paintings can be viewed at www.donaldflather.com. Admission to the Surrey talk is free. There will be time for questions and conversation during and following the talk. The event concludes by 9 p.m. Refreshments are provided.

Exploring social issues through art Students focus on plight of aboriginal women by Alex Browne SOUTHRIDGE senior stu-

Southridge Grade 11 visual arts students (left to right) Austyn Baumeister, Leila Craig, Lauren Low and Stevia Hatzikiriakos look over block prints they created on social issues with their Grade 10 classes earlier this year.

dent Austyn Baumeister’s design for her original block print, utilizes the shape of a First Nations dream-weaver as its framework. But in the print, entitled Bad Dreams, where one would normally see a hopeful images and symbols, there is only a female face of unhappiness and a sense of pervading malevolence. It’s a powerful image, one of a series created by 28 Grade 10 visual arts students earlier this year to focus on the plight of aboriginal women in the province.

“I thought it was pretty symbolic,” Baumeister said. “It touches on the dreams and hopes that these women had but which are gone.” The print might seem too strong a statement for those who believe that art must simply be something pleasing to the aesthetic senses. But, as the students are being encouraged to see by teacher Susy Baranszky-Job, art can also be an instrument of examination and discussion of social issues, and, ultimately, a vehicle for social change. The class project was

The students were challenged not only to come up with – and vote on – two human rights and social justice causes that could be highlighted through visual images, but also to design and create three to five unique block print images each that would serve to draw attention to the issues. Among topics students researched through Amnesty International, they were inspired by statements

they found about young aboriginal women, who – even according to Canadian government statistics – are five times more likely to die through violence. “No one knows exactly how many indigenous women have been murdered or have gone missing in Canada over the past three decades,” one statement circulated with the prints reads. “Because of gaps and inconsistencies in the way that the identities of crime are recorded and made public in Canada, that question simply cannot be answered.

However, we do know with certainty that the marginalization of indigenous women in Canadian society has led to an extremely high risk of violence.” During the late spring and summer, original prints were distributed through the school population, to newspaper and government offices and social organizations as a means of promoting discussion about this issue – and also the other topic chosen by students, the equally tragic situation of child soldiers in the Congo. Looking back on the project with several of the students – now in Grade 11 visual arts – Baranszky-Job said she was pleased with the way they had met the challenge to focus on evocative and powerful visual imagery without recourse to sensationalism, part of an ongoing process in defining and refining their own skills in selfexpression.

Students: Used own symbolism From page 40

“We had to come up with our own symbolism and have it fit in with the issue we were addressing – the images can have more intensity than words, because you can interpret them in many different ways,” student Leia Craig said of her print, Rising Spirits, in which a face looms like a sun over mountains and a minimalistic highway. Lauren Low, whose print Every Day was created for the child-soldier issue, said her challenge was not only creating a strong image but also controlling the ink colour combinations used to make the prints. “When we used colour, we didn’t want it to be bright colour,” she said. “We wanted to use appropriate colour, and I think it directed a powerful message to what we wanted to discuss.” Baranszky-Job said her role as mentor and facilitator was to guide students away from “cool imagery” toward well-considered symbolism. “The idea is to raise awareness, and explore one’s role as an artist in the community as someone who is dealing with ideas, not just creating images that please you,” she said. “What they came up with is so vivid – and the other thing I like about this assignment is that it teaches you what is the difference between respecting a culture and cultural appropriation. “There is some very sophisticated imagery here.” “I liked the whole idea of voting as a class on what issue was the most powerful issue,” said Stevia Hatzikiriakos, whose bold design A Forgotten Beauty frames a forlorn, childlike figure. “I think it was an awesome project because it gets people to relate.” arts@peacearchnewsw.com

the Surrey Symphony Society will shine at an upcoming concert celebrating the group’s 35th anniversary. The concert, aptly titled The Stars Will Shine Down, will feature the Surrey Youth Orchestra, as well members of the Junior and Intermediate Strings groups. The program will include Corelli’s Made for the Night of Christmas and the Tchaikovsky suite June from The Seasons, which is based on the poem “Let us go down to the shore ... the stars will shine down on us.” This year the program

also includes short works from opera, ballet and film. The Junior Strings will perform the wellknown Flower Duet from the opera Lakmé (also used for British Airways commercials and cellphone ringtones). Intermediate Strings will take on the explosive, controlled frenzy of Glière’s Russian Sailor’s Dance, and the movie music of Cinema Paradiso. “The program is really exciting,” said General Manager Anna Russell. “Another highlight is going to be the full Beethoven symphony, composed when he was just 29. “The youth orchestra performs at a high level and we have a particularly strong wind section this year too. The Beethoven is the perfect piece to hear what they can do.” The concert takes place Dec. 5 at 3 p.m. at Seaquam Secondary, 11584 Lyon Rd. Tickets ($15 for adults, $8 students, and $35 per family) are available by calling the Surrey Symphony Society at 604-572-9225 or emailing inquiries@surrey youthorchestra.org

First GVHBA U40 mentorship event a success The Greater Vancouver Homebuilders’ Association U40 Committee held its first in an ongoing series of mentorship breakfasts recently, with Portrait Homes co-principal and GVHBA director Rob Grimm as the mentor. Earlier this year, the GVHBA conducted a survey of its younger members and found it can be difficult to

actually meet and speak with industry leaders at large events, and the idea of mentorship breakfasts started to grow. There was such strong interest in the event, says GVHBA U40 chairman Yosh Kasahara, that a lottery system was used to select the lucky 12 U40 attendees. “The U40s who attended agreed that it was an incredibly valuable experience to be able to hear from Rob in this unique format,” Kasahara says. “The GVHBA U40 Committee would like to sincerely thank Rob Grimm for sharing his knowledge and experience with this group of up-andcoming GVHBA members.”

Home sales trend higher Forecasts bode well for B.C. residential sales in 2011 TRICIA LESLIE Favourable mortgage rates, strong migration flows and job growth will keep home sales stable in the Metro Vancouver area until mid-2011, says a recent Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation report. Later in 2011, when improvements in the economy and job market gain more traction, sales are forecast to trend higher, the national agency reports. “Balanced market conditions that have been established in recent months will continue over the next nine to 12 months,” says CMHC senior market analyst Robyn Adamache. Fewer new listings coming Robyn Adamache onto the market due to modest price growth and a steady pace of sales will continue to gradually draw down the inventory of resale homes for sale, the CMHC forecast says. The same holds true across the province, says CMHC regional economist Carol Frketich. “Builders are expected to begin construction on more new homes next year in response to steady housing demand,” she says. CMHC is forecasting just under 26,000 total starts in B.C. for 2011, slightly below the province’s 10-year average. A recent B.C. Real Estate Cameron Muir Association forecast also points to increasing home sales in the region in 2011. The BCREA’s fall housing forecast calls for home sales to decline by 12 per cent from 85,028 units in 2009 to 74,950 units this year, before increasing by six per cent to 79,700 units in 2011. “Consumers are responding to a double-dip in mortgage interest rates,” says BCREA chief

Home sales have been steady at Surrey’s Quattro condo development and continual at Langley’s High Point Equestrian Estates, with more sales expected and more homebuilding scheduled in the immediate future.

economist Cameron Muir. “While housing demand waned in the province through the spring and summer, the additional purchasing power from low borrowing costs combined with gradual improvements in the B.C. economy has trended home sales higher in recent months.” A “moderate increase” in B.C.’s home sales is expected next year, but Muir notes the expected 79,700 residential sales forecast for 2011 are “well below” the 10-year average of 85,000 units. A record 106,300 residential sales were recorded in 2005. While home sales in the province were down in October compared to the same month last year, they increased by two per cent compared to September 2010, says the BCREA. The average MLS residential price climbed six per cent to $521,859 in October compared

THE PERFECT PLACE FOR NEW BEGINNINGS!

to October 2009. “B.C. home sales have posted moderate gains since the summer months,” Muir says, again pointing to mortgage rates and the associated increase in purchasing power. Indeed, at Quattro, a new Tien Sher Group of Companies development in Surrey, director Charan Sethi says it’s amazing how much interest there has been in the new condo homes. “We’ve had steady sales. It’s coming along nicely,” he says. Ditto at Cressey’s High Point Equestrian Estates in Langley, where sales and building have been “continual” and the massive equestrian amenities centre is under construction. Many new estate homes are built or underway, with 10 more homes expected to start construction, says Cressey development manager Jason Turcotte.

Local home prices not high on global scale

It is no secret that Canada's home prices – especially in Metro Vancouver – are overvalued. But local homeowners may be surprised to learn that it could be worse. A lot worse, according to a new international survey. The Economist recently published its annual survey of global house prices, which shows that Canadian homes cost an average of 23.9 per cent more than they are worth. Compared to Australia, however, where homes are 63.2 per cent overvalued, Canada is somewhere near the middle of the worldwide pack. In Hong Kong, homes are 58.1 per cent overvalued, while Spain, France and Sweden posted overvalue percentages in the 40s. At the other end of the scale, the Economist reports that homes in Japan are 34.6 per cent undervalued; in Germany, homes are 12.9 per cent undervalued. The Economist notes that last year at this time, the survey was “a sea of negative numbers.” A year ago, 15 out of the 20 countries on the list were in negative territory. “That was then. Of the 20 markets tracked in our latest survey, only four still posted year-on-year declines and only Ireland’s property catastrophe has worsened,” states an Economist release. According to the survey, Canada’s home prices were up 4.5 per cent from one year ago. Between 1997 and 2010, prices rose by an astonishing 70 per cent, the report said. The Economist’s analysis of fair value in housing is based on comparing the current ratio of house prices to rents with its longrun average. That analysis suggests that Canada “has less to worry about than the likes of Australia, which is again the most overvalued of the markets we track,” the release says. “That makes it all the more surprising that Australia’s central bank opted not to increase its benchmark interest rate this month.”

A win for Guildford

IN NOVEMBER 2009, Guildford Town Centre unveiled its new “Shop with a Good Friend” brand. The campaign has allowed Guildford Town Centre to cultivate a closer connection to the community by blending the diverse consumer base with the community’s rich heritage. The centre kicked off the campaign in September 2009 by hosting a community-wide casting call for a chance to be featured in the centre’s new advertising campaign, which attracted 750 Surrey residents. “We needed to create a compelling and distinct new identity that would inject life into our dark and tired centre and better reach our growing and culturally diverse marketplace”, said marketing director Rosavel Scott. “Not only did we want to cultivate new relationships with prospective customers but had a desire to better connect with shoppers who have been a part of our life for almost 45 years. Rosavel Scott We wanted to let them know that we considered them good friends.” The Shop with a Good Friend campaign was entered into the International Council of Shopping Centres (ICSC) Global Awards program and Guildford Town Centre was presented with a Maple Leaf Silver Award at the annual Canadian Shopping Centres Award ceremony in October. Professional recognition for the campaign was given to Guildford Town Centre general manager Peggy White, property manager Julia Sangerloo, Rosavel Scott, director of regional marketing Belinda Davidson and the groups Ivanhoe Cambridge and Cohn Marketing.

Reading their way to success

ore than 750 students in Surrey were recently recognized for their hard work and accomplishments over the last year at Kumon’s annual Student Achievement Celebration. Held at the Bell Centre for the Performing Arts, students graced the stage to rounds of applause and cheers from friends and family to receive personalized awards for their individual achievements. Awards handed out during the event

included one for a Grade 4 girl being recognized for studying calculus – materials well above her grade level. A number of students were also recognized for more than 10 years of committed efforts towards education and unlocking their full potential, and a group of students who ranked in the top five on Kumon Math and Reading Centres’ North American Advanced Student Honour Roll were recognized. “We’re so proud of our students,”

Caregiving challenges and opportunities Values and beliefs can help you navigate ethical dilemmas looked after each other since the beginning of time. Despite the emotional, financial, social and physical strains of care giving, caregivers find their role has very rewarding moments and are highly motivated to provide for their loved ones. This caring and sharing is also the glue that ties many families together. Many caregivers do not see themselves as caregivers but rather as good sons, daughters, wives, husbands, friends or relatives; and many are not prepared for the physical and emotional demands they will face. It is essential to be aware of these challenges as a caregiver and be prepared to accept them as a part of your daily life and seek help where needed.

Physical challenges • An increase in physical demands; • Having to wake up several times at night; • Conducting physically demanding tasks (bathing, changing clothes, etc).

Emotional challenges

• Difficulty accepting that someone who might have looked after you at one point is now dependent upon you; • Fatigue may cause moody behaviour; • Irritability; • Guilt when missing out on personal obligations or when carrying out personal plans; • Sadness while watching your loved

Social challenges

• Possible loss of income, due to the time consumed by care giving; • Increase in medical costs. One of the toughest challenges though is deciding whether and/ or when to put a loved one in a care facility. We worry about how others (friends, family) would view our decision. Sometimes family and friends may not even understand the hurdles you face in caring for your family member. This may lead to feelings of guilt, especially when you’re not able to manage all the care giving yourself in the comfort of your home.
