Jammed hospitals getting more crowded

DUMPING ON SURREY Cleaning up illegally disposed trash cost city taxpayers more than $800,000 last year

Tim Hortons used as overﬂow ward highlights chronic congestion by Jeff Nagel

lion thanks to people dumping large amounts of refuse in neighbourhoods rather than taking it to a waste transfer station or landfill. Last year saw a dramatic increase of 22 per cent, as the cost of cleaning up illegal dumping in Surrey shot up $147,000 to $830,000 for the year. The amount is equal to the annual property taxes for homes occupying eight square city blocks.

HALLWAY MEDICINE is hitting new highs in congested Lower Mainland hospitals, as was demonstrated Monday night when Royal Columbian Hospital was forced to use its Tim Hortons outlet as an overflow ward. Fraser Health officials say a combination of multiple trauma case airlifts earlier in the day and heavy pressure on the emergency department led staff to put patients in the hospital coffee shop. It’s an unusual example of what has become a routine problem across the region: too many patients and not enough beds. “Last night the hallways were two and three stretchers deep with patients,” said Dr. Sheldon Glazer, an emergency physician at Royal Columbian, the region’s trauma centre. “This is just a natural progression of what we’ve been dealing with for a long, long time,” Glazer said.

Piles of construction trash have been discarded in a ﬁeld near Harvey Road and 176 Street in Port Kells. by Kevin Diakiw

here were piles of construction waste such as drywall, lumber and insulation, along with mattresses, plastic pails, broken hot tubs, computer parts, baby seats, and in one instance, 10 tonnes of sea urchin shells. A visit to the local landfill? No. A drive through Surrey streets. A morning ride earlier this week through

less-populated areas of Surrey revealed a dirty problem that’s costing taxpayers a fortune to clean up: Illegal dumping. The city spent more than $800,000 last year hauling away trash that had been pitched in ditches, fields, empty lots and road sides, with a 2010 cost increase the largest jump in 10 years. Figures provided by the city at the request of The Leader show over the last decade, Surrey taxpayers were on the hook for more than $6 mil-

Man dead after shootout with Surrey RCMP Police pursuit has fatal outcome for driver with assault riﬂe by Surrey Leader Staff ONE MAN was shot dead late Wednesday evening, following a police chase in South Surrey. Surrey RCMP say a uniformed officer conducting a “vehicle stop” of a white Chrysler 300 in the 15400 block of 16 Avenue just after 11 p.m. noticed that the car’s driver had a firearm. The officer called for back-up. The driver fled in the vehicle, according to police, and a short chase ensued. The vehicle was again spotted at King George Boulevard and Highway 10, according to a police report, and a spike belt was deployed. “A minor collision occurred between this marked police unit and the fleeing suspect vehicle,” according to a police news release. “Upon this collision, the occupant of the fleeing vehicle became engaged in a lethal confrontation with our uniformed member with what is believed to be an assault rifle.”

“Multiple gunshots occurred which led to the suspect in this matter to be killed and pronounced dead at scene.” Police say the driver – who was in possession of what appears to be an assault rifle and a handgun “within arm’s reach” – has not been identified. The intersection at Highway 10 and King George Boulevard remained closed for most of Thursday afternoon. Saanich Police are conducting an independent police agency investigation of the incident. newsroom@surreyleader.com

BOAZ JOSEPH / THE LEADER

Just half the patients who visit Surrey Memorial Hospital ER and need to be admitted will get a bed within 10 hours.

Fraser Health: ‘Upward trend’ of patients waiting for beds From page 1 “We are forced to see patients in waiting rooms, in hallways, and, now, in the Tim Hortons.” The veteran ER doctor says halls jammed with stretchers are both inefficient and dangerous – particularly if a fire broke out. The persistent crowding region-wide suggests the region needs to build at least one or two new hospitals, he said. “It’s like playing musical chairs,” Glazer said. “When the music stops, somebody gets left out.” One measure of hospital congestion – the number of patients admitted through ERs who don’t yet have a bed – has climbed in Fraser Health from a daily average of 136 in 2008 to 148 in 2009 and reached 175 for the first six months of 2010. In recent weeks, Fraser has averaged 220 admitted patients who are stuck waiting for beds at any given time, although officials note that coincides with the traditional winter surge when ERs are at their busiest. “We do have a noticeable trend upward,” Fraser Health public affairs director David Plug said. Emergency department visits are up, he said, because of population growth, aging, and the rise of chronic disease. Another yardstick of hallway medicine is the percentage of patients who get a hospital bed within 10 hours of the decision to admit them. Eleven Lower Mainland hospitals – including busy Surrey Memorial, Abbotsford Regional, Richmond and Lions Gate – are averaging less than 55 per cent of patients admitted within that 10-hour standard, far below a provincial target of 80 per cent that was set back in 2005. Mission Memorial at 72 per cent, Royal Columbian at 69 per cent, Burnaby at 68 per cent and Vancouver General at 64 per cent are closest to reaching the goal. Worst are the smaller hospitals – Delta (23 per cent), Peace Arch (29 per cent), Eagle Ridge (32 per cent) and Ridge Meadows (37 per cent). At those facilities, Plug said the problem isn’t so much ER demand as the large numbers of elderly and chronically ill patients who often end up in hospital, occupying beds that can then slow admissions through the ER.

“We are forced to see patients in waiting rooms, in hallways, and now, in the Tim Hortons.” Dr. Sheldon Glazer “For community hospitals serving areas with a sizable seniors’ population or significant chronic disease, that can increase pressure,” Plug said. The growing traffic jam in hospitals comes despite construction of some new facilities and various tactics to improve patient flow. The $450-million Abbotsford Regional Hospital and Cancer Centre opened two years ago, replacing its predecessor and adding a significant number of beds. Hospitals have also tried everything from improved triage procedures to opening separate minor treatment units to pull less severe cases out of crowded ERs. New hospital construction is also underway. A new $237-million outpatient hospital opens in Surrey June 1 that is expected to help decongest Surrey Memorial by taking over day surgery and diagnostics. And an entire new emergency department and critical care tower, at a cost of $525 million, will bring more relief at SMH in 2013-14 by adding another 151 beds. “The next top priority is Royal Columbian Hospital,” Plug said, adding a similar critical care tower is under consideration there. Planning processes are also underway to look at the future needs for Peace Arch and Delta hospitals, with Eagle Ridge to follow. Building new hospitals is not the only answer, Plug said. “We need to do that but we also need to be operating as efficiently and effectively as possible and we all need to live a healthier lifestyle,” he said. Back at RCH, Plug said, congestion was well down by Tuesday and Tim Hortons was again serving coffee drinkers instead of patients. Plug said the coffee shop is not a formally designated overflow area, but staff are empowered

to use various non-clinical areas when conditions warrant. He calls it a short-term temporary solution and not what the health region prefers to see. “It was cleaned before and after,” he said. “There were no communicable disease concerns.” Six stretchers with privacy screens were put up in the Tim Hortons, which had closed by that time of night, and about four patients were monitored there, including one with angina who was hooked up to cardiac monitors. In many ways, Glazer said, the coffee shop is preferable to hallways because there’s a bit more privacy. “It’s very difficult to do a full examination in a hallway or take a history in a hallway, which is quite public,” Glazer said. Staff have sensitive conversations with patients – like whether they want a do-not-resuscitate order – in the busy waiting room, underneath a TV, he said. One man at Surrey Memorial who was parked on a stretcher in a busy hall for more than a day while awaiting a bed recounted having to use a portable urinal beneath the sheets to relieve himself. “It’s just unacceptable,” the patient said. None of those experiences is ideal, officials say. “Certainly our daily experience is challenging,” Plug said. “Long term, the prospect is for growth – both in people and the severity of their conditions. We are working on short-, medium- and long-term strategies to improve the situation.”

How long to get a bed? THE PERCENTAGE of patients who get a bed

within 10 hours of the decision to admit them through ER is a key benchmark of hospital congestion. Provincial target is 80 per cent. Figures are year-to-date for 2010-11. • Delta Hospital – 23 % (was 14 % in early 2009) • Peace Arch Hospital – 29 % (was 49 % in early 2009) • Surrey Memorial Hospital – 52 % (was 41 % in early 2009)

Dumping: A city-wide problem From page 1 Mayor Dianne Watts was incensed when she learned of the rising price tag. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s totally unacceptable for taxpayers to foot the bill because there are irresponsible people that continue to dump garbage,â&#x20AC;? Watts said Tuesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to be meeting with staff and coming up with some strategies to catch these people.â&#x20AC;? Part of the increase in dumping is due to a growing population, increasing costs of using landfills, the lack of a local residential drop off (RDO) in South Surrey, and confusion about where to take materials that wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be accepted by Surreyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s transfer station in Port Kells. Surreyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s population has grown by 32 per cent over the last decade, but the cost of cleaning up illegal dumping has soared by 180 per cent during that time. Part of last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spike may be due to the fact the fees for taking trash to waste transfer stations went up 18 per cent on Jan. 1, 2010. The region imposed another 18-per-cent increase at the start of this year, so illegal dumping could continue to rise if cost is a contributing factor. The region has long-promised â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and failed to deliver â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a second RDO in Surrey. Coun. Linda Hepner, who sits on the regional waste committee, said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in the Metro Vancouver budget for this year, but sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll believe it when she sees it, noting Surrey has had an agreement with the region for the second RDO for the past decade, but Metro has yet to deliver.

In addition to the city getting hit with clean-up costs, an unknown amount of waste is being dumped on private property, leaving the landowners with hefty bills. Lloyd Ratzlaff got stung with a $3,000 invoice when someone dumped more than 10 tonnes of sea urchin shells on his property at 168 Street and Barnston Road. Ratzlaff said the urchins are a seafood delicacy, but the shells are considered special waste. The Surrey transfer station wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take them, so they were dumped on his property. Vincent LaLonde, Surreyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s general manager of engineering, said sites under construction are also a favourite target of illegal dumpers. LaLonde will be tabling the issue at a regional meeting of municipal engineers today (Friday), with hopes of coming up with some solutions and possibly recommendations for stiffer laws provincially. As the province and region push toward a goal of zero waste, LaLonde says itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to watch for fallout. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we see a burgeoning problem associated with that, I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only appropriate to analyze all means that need to be taken to curb the illegal dumping,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a problem that is occurring city-wide. Watts said she will recommend implementing closed-circuit television on some of the sites that are frequently used in order to catch the perpetrators. Anyone witnessing someone dumping trash illegally is encouraged to immediately call the police nonemergency line at 604-599-0502.

Keep dementia on the political agenda No excuse B.C.’S PREMIER designate says that families

will be the focus for her government. I would like to introduce Christy Clark to 70,000 families in our province who are on the dementia journey. I am writing not only as a person with Alzheimer’s disease, but as someone who was diagnosed in my 50s, urging our new premier to continue the government’s commitment to improving the lives of people with dementia and their families. Baby boomers are finding themselves as

the “sandwich generation,” working full-time jobs, caring for parents who are living with dementia, as well as supporting children who are still living at home. In some cases, the baby boomer is the one living with dementia, with about 10,000 people under the age of 65 currently diagnosed with the disease. There is no cure for dementia and the journey ultimately leads to the need for total care. Family caregivers provide unimaginable amounts of time providing informal or

unpaid care. Their journey can sometimes be lonely, isolating and is often frustrating. Support is needed for these families. Inaction will have an enormous impact not only on B.C. families but on our health care system. Dementia needs to be on the political agenda and we need all partners working together. Jim Mann

The new road to gridlock JEFF NAGEL’S article on estimated toll revenue (The Leader, Feb. 25) sparked a bit of frustration with me. The people who “throw” these estimated numbers together I can assume are very well-paid “higher purpose people” who do not live east of the new bridge, and will not face the $206 after tax dollars fleeced from their pockets every month, just for the right to go to work in Burnaby or places west. I work and live east of this crossing, so I actually feel sorry for those who will lose $1.40-$1.75 per hour before taxes just to get to work. It seems like a small amount until you tell yourself that it will cost every person a nice holiday in Maui every year – or a decent little RRSP contribution. I’m going to make some predictions. I predict a shift in employment to places east of the bridge. I predict many drivers will shift to crossing at the Pattullo and Alex Fraser Bridges to avoid the tolls, even if it means sitting listening to their radios in jammed traffic – not that I’d call the Pattullo Bridge a reasonable alternative. I predict the usual double-talk by TransLink when upon finding these estimated crossing levels are not met, that vehicle levies, increased home tax surcharge or some other unavoidable fee (unlike tolls) will be introduced to offset the loss in revenue. And of course let’s not forget that there’s no guarantee this shiny new bridge will stop the rush hour backlog that will still be there, and that Pattullo and Alex Fraser Bridges’ rush hour will be turned permanently into Port Mann gridlock. So... sit in your car in a free lineup or sit in a line-up you’ll have to pay to join in on.

Liberals made the right choice

EVAN SEAL / THE LEADER

A letter writer believes that the high cost of travel on the new tolled Port Mann Bridge will shift gridlock to other Fraser River crossings. Canada’s national link, Highway 1, tolled. Only in Metro Vancouver. Steve Gurry, Surrey

Toll all crossings RE: PROPOSED tolls on Port Mann

and Pattullo Bridges and present toll on Golden Ears Bridge. As Surrey residents and sometime users of all three bridges, may we add our suggestion to the chorus of voices crying out? We suggest that all the Lower Mainland bridges be tolled at a very low rate, i.e. $1 to $2.

This would distributed the pain evenly to all Vancouver area residents rather than punish only certain areas. As it is now, Maple Ridge and Surrey residents are finding ways to circumvent the Golden Ears toll. The unanticipated low number of users are proving this. I think that the future will prove to be the same for the Pattullo and Port Mann bridges. If only Golden Ears and Port Mann Bridges are tolled, drivers will congest Surrey to find a toll free path to Vancouver. Lorraine and Fred Kortsch

THE B.C. Liberals are ready for war, and their weapon of

choice is Christy Clark. She has promised change and I for one believe her. Life is about choices and one chooses how to react to circumstances. You can choose to engage in things that tear down, or build up. Clark has chosen to work hard on a path for fruitfulness and productivity. The NDP is another case. I decided to quit the party after 40 years of standing by the good, the bad, and Glen Clark and Adrian Dix, hoping that we would seek change. No such luck. For me the alignment with Bill Vander Zalm was the last straw. Too much has been accomplished over the last decade to rebuild B.C. so I choose not to tear that down going

Recycling project RE: MOVING THE Port Mann Bridge. I think this is a great idea. I don’t know which engineering firm would handle the project, but perhaps when they are finished doing it, they could go to Egypt and move the pyramids closer to Cairo. As it is now, it takes almost a half hour taxi ride to go see them. I haven’t worked out all the details, but I’m pretty sure a giant balloon could handle the job. W.H. Ross Surrey

backwards by supporting a party in crisis, or chasing the promises of any third choice. Life is too short to compromise time and resources... it may be tempting to just keep your head down, plod along, and appease those who demand more but deliver less. But that’s the worthless, easy path. And a problem in our province today is apathy. Prisoners of conventional wisdom will miss the significance of this, and like the NDP, they will never understand why Christy Clark has struck such a powerful chord with British Columbia, so we ought not be surprised that this good news is completely beyond their ability to understand what is really happening. William Perry

for not being informed

IN A WORLD FILLED with social

networking and instant communication, it is not hard to find out about current issues around the entire globe. Today, it was easy and quick for me to be filled in on the absolute chaos that the Libyan people have been facing since Feb. 17 (and even before then), thanks to Tumblr and Twitter feeds. It is so simple to keep in touch with the Middle East at this time and it is shocking to see what is happening over there. What rattled me, aside from Gaddafi’s purely evil intentions and true lunacy, was signing into Facebook and finding not a single post about this global issue from my “friends.” I am a 16-year-old girl so I understand that this may not be top priority for my peers, and that these current events do not interest them like the latest gossip does or their petty television shows do. However, that is not an excuse, nor is it okay. I’m sickened by the lack of awareness so many young people seem to have for the human race and about the terrifying things that are happening over in the Middle East right now, especially Libya. As I stated before, our world is constantly in communication, and I find it incredibly hard to believe that these teenagers do not know what is happening in Libya – it honestly seems impossible. To me, this speaks of pure ignorance, and I could not be more disappointed in my generation. We are now at the age in which these issues apply to us. These problems will soon be ours to deal with, and this thought is what scares me the very most. Maria Szabo, Surrey

A line on a great idea I WAS crossing the Pattullo Bridge

the other day and had this great idea. Why don’t we paint white lines on the pavement so driver’s can tell if they are in an actual lane? Most dangerous bridge in B.C.? I wonder why. Ted Van de Perre

said Helten, who blames developer-friendly councils around the region for the lack of debate so far. Most of the objections raised by Helten and his group have raised barely an eyebrow among the bulk of Metro Vancouver directors. Richmond Coun. Harold Steves, co-founder of the Agricultural Land Reserve, was the only director to vote against the plan in January, primarily over its potential to wrest more farmland out of the ALR. Other directors said they were satisfied that couldn’t happen without the consent of the Agricultural Land Commission. The document continues and builds on the vision of the Livable Region Strategic Plan – fighting sprawl, protecting green space and building more complete communities better served by transportation. In some ways it will be easier to amend the new plan and redraw its urban containment boundary, which holds in urban development and protects farmland, green space and more rural lands. But most veteran Metro politicians say it strikes a fair balance See PLAN / Page 9

Alexa’s Bus campaign launches

CarePlace

$67,000 raised so far; target is $1.25 million by Kevin Diakiw THE FUNDRAISING campaign has kicked off for five buses that will provides mobile impaired driving testing. The Alexa’s Bus program is named after four-year-old Alexa Middelaer, who was killed by an impaired driver in 2008. The buses will be used as an educational tool as well as for mobile impaired driving testing.

Each bus will cost $250,000, and the fundraising campaign has brought in more than $67,000 so far. Some of the donors include Village Montessori School, which raised $2,153 through lemonade sales, Southridge Junior Teachers ($1,273), Nina Verdi ($4,000), ScotiaBank ($3,000), Surrey Eagles ($3,800), Purple Power Girls ($3,000), Spirit Bracelet Girls ($1,300),

and several others. “We need to give police the best tools available so they can collect the best evidence and ensure drunk drivers are caught and convicted,” says Mayor Dianne Watts who donated $10,000 from the 2010 Mayor’s Charity Ball to go toward the Back the Bus Campaign.

Plan: Most Metro politicians say it strikes a fair balance From page 8 between civic autonomy and regional control. Other concerns have been more localized. Coquitlam council has debated the longterm designation of the Westwood Plateau golf course land and Maple Ridge is keen to ensure Metro keeps a promise to extend water and sewer to its Thornhill district in the future. One city has voted against the growth

strategy. Port Moody council voted 5-1 last month to reject the document, saying their city can’t agree to take more population growth without needed transportation improvements, notably the Evergreen Line and MurrayClarke Connector. But Port Moody Mayor Joe Trasolini, who cast the lone vote in favour, says his council has in effect lashed out at Metro Vancouver over decisions that are up to TransLink.

He is not convinced his city’s stance will hold and predicts the issue will be revisited. The Local Government Act requires municipalities that formally object to a regional growth strategy to give specific reasons. Even if Port Moody formally objects with valid reasons, it’s not clear that would defeat the regional accord. A dispute resolution process would be triggered, under the auspices of the provincial government.

We are pleased to announce

Cities that don’t formally oppose the strategy by a March 22 deadline are deemed to have accepted it. To pass, the document must be accepted by all affected local governments. A final ratification vote by the Metro board is set for April 29.

Students walk out over hours Opposition voiced to planned fall timetable changes by Hannah Sutherland WHEN SISTERS Chenoa and Talia Hurst-Dand decided to launch a student protest against class schedule changes planned for Earl Marriott Secondary next fall, they figured a small group of people would show up.

and Talia, the latter in Grade 8, will start and end the school day at different times. Not only would they have to reconsider transportation to and from school, but their after-school clubs that currently include all grades – such as Talia’s rugby practices – would either be split up or rescheduled for a time when both juniors and seniors are out of class. “This new bell schedule is going to separate us all,” Talia said. The proposed change is to address space shortfalls, and will extend the school day to five blocks from four, with the new schedule to stretch from about 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. for juniors, and around 9:15 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. for seniors. “I just really didn’t like it, so I wanted to do something about it,” Chenoa said. Over the last few days, the sisters created a Facebook page, sent out text messages and put up signs inviting students to walk out of class March 1 at 2 p.m. – more than 30 minutes before the official end of the school day. “We’re going to try and show the government we have a voice and they need to listen to us,” Talia said. Principal Peter Johnston said the school was aware of the planned walkout as soon as it went viral, and described it an important opportunity for students to share their concerns. “It’s good that the students get a voice,” he said. “I hope the local MLAs who are here see the passion the students have and the pride they take in their school.” Surrey-White Rock Liberal MLA Gordon Hogg was present after taking a tour of the school that morning to witness firsthand the overcrowding students deal with every day. “I had been told how busy it was but to experience it was helpful to gain a (better) understanding,” Hogg said. Surrey-Newton NDP MLA Harry Bains said he attended to support the students, and took the Liberals to task for not providing capital funding for new Surrey schools since 2005. See SCHEDULES Page 11

“It’s all about misplaced priorities and it’s about a lack of funding,” Bains said. “It’s sickening that our children have to come out, who should be in their classrooms, to stand up for their education.” Hogg said he is aware of challenges Surrey schools are facing, and has been speaking “consistently” with the ministers of education and finance. Hogg said he is optimistic more funds will come to Surrey, although when it arrives is unclear with government “to a large degree on hold” with the designation of a new premier last weekend. “There will be money coming to Surrey – the board of

education will have to make as judicious a decision as they can to decide where that money will go.” Many students said they left their classes calmly and respectfully at 2 p.m. – some stacking their chairs before leaving – to join the protest, even if they didn’t think it would make a difference. “It won’t change it for next year but it will show them we only want it to be a short-term fix,” Grade 10 student Chase Lawler said. “We just want to let people know we’re not happy about this and we didn’t get a say.” About 100 parents of Earl Marriott Secondary students who attended a Parent Advisory

Council meeting at the school Monday evening to discuss the flexible class schedule planned for this fall said they preferred portables over a new class schedule. Surrey School District spokesperson Doug Strachan said it’s not that simple. “The district doesn’t see that as the best solution,” Strachan said. “There’s just no place at Earl Marriott to put portables. They’re landlocked there between residences and streets. “The other consideration around portables is the cost, in excess of $100,000 each. That comes right out of the operating budget.”

School replacement set back a year Design for new Sunnyside Elementary includes community rooms, daycare by Tracy Holmes PRELIMINARY designs for Sur-

rey’s newest elementary school – including space for a daycare and community programming – are complete. And while officials are lauding the Neighbourhood Learning Centre concept as “perfect sense,” they’re frustrated a late call from the provincial government to do it means Sunnyside Elementary students will have to wait an extra year for their new digs.

trustees appointed the architect in October 2007, and it was anticipated the new building, at 2828 159 St., would be ready as early as next January. But direction to build the school as a Neighbourhood Learning Centre changed everything. “We had to go back and re-do all the plans, so basically, we have lost a year there,” Surrey Board of Education chair Laurae McNally said. “The end product will be wonderful, but we’ve lost a year. It would’ve been nice if they’d made up their mind in the beginning.” Government announced its “Neighbourhoods of Learning” pilot project in September 2008,

touting a vision for the future of education as one where people can access educational and community services under one roof. School districts were encouraged to consult with community partners and organizations to come up with innovative and inclusive designs. The idea followed the province’s 2005 support of the School Community Connections program, in which grants were provided to assist in transforming school facilities into community hubs. The Neighbourhood Learning Centres (NLC) program includes the provision of extra capital to incorporate NLC approaches into school plans; all other schools are

way on what will be a new 59-bed acute mental health facility in Surrey across from Surrey Memorial Hospital. The highly specialized $24-million Timber Creek tertiary care facility, at the former Bear Creek Lodge seniors’ home, is expected to take some of the last psychiatric patients being transferred as Riverview Hospital shuts down. The site at 13646 94A Ave. will take complex mentally ill clients, who might be on medication for schizophrenia or bipolar illness and dealing with other health challenges, such as diabetic complications. Timber Creek will include a 12-bed intensive care unit for stays of two to four weeks for

intensive treatment, support and stabilization. Two 15-bed assessment and treatment units and a 17-bed intensive tertiary rehabilitation unit are geared to adults needing longer stays of two to six months. It’s targeted to open in June of 2012. “Developing these highlyspecialized programs will allow Fraser Health to offer its communities a broader range of mental health services and provide the care and support that these individuals need closer to their homes and in our communities,” said Lois Dixon, Fraser Health’s executive director of mental health and addiction services.

Six beds at Timber Creek will be for patients from the Vancouver Coastal region, with the rest coming from Fraser Health, including many expected from Surrey. The project is part of a broader plan to build a total of 318 additional mental health beds at nine sites in the Lower Mainland at a total cost of more than $80 million. Under the Riverview redevelopment project, patients are being transferred to B.C.’s five regional health authorities as new facilities open. So far 160 beds have been opened across Fraser Health. jnagel@surreyleader.com

Metro passes new fees for dirty diesels Off-road equipment targeted to reduce cancer risk by Jeff Nagel OWNERS of the most

soot-spewing diesel machines will be hit with hefty fees starting next year to push them to upgrade their engines. Metro Vancouver’s board voted Friday to pass the new bylaw regulating off-road engines, despite objections from some heavy equipment users. It will charge the most polluting machines hundreds and eventually thousands of dollars a year depending on the horsepower rating, although there’s a provision for owners to recoup 80 per cent of the fees by retrofitting or replacing the engine. Port Moody Mayor Joe Trasolini, who chairs Metro’s environment committee, called the new system of fees

the most significant measure the region can take to reduce the risk of cancer from air toxins. “The benefits far outweigh the cost of implementation and the cost to the industry,” he said. Langley City Coun. Gayle Martin, who voted against the bylaw, said she would have preferred to put more money and effort into ensuring AirCare stations crack down on heavy diesel trucks. “I’m not against the intent of this bylaw but I think we could have allowed more time for those who need to retrofit or replace their engines,” she said. North Vancouver District Mayor Richard Walton and North Vancouver City Mayor Darrell Mussatto also voted against the bylaw after

hearing a delegation from North Vancouverbased Dynamic Equipment Rentals, which opposed the fees. Metro district director of air quality Ray Robb said the region will work with small business and advocate for federal funding to help subsidize engine upgrades. He defended the measures as critical to reducing airborne diesel particulate – one of the most significant threats

to human health among air contaminants. “It will speed the migration to cleaner engines,” Robb said. “So it will save lives. And it will deliver health care benefits worth many times the cost of reducing these emissions.” Unlike on-road diesel engines, which have become steadily cleaner through tougher standards, off-road equipment hasn’t been targeted until much more recently and typi-

cally keep running far longer than trucks. Some directors expressed concern heavily polluting machines may relocate to the Fraser Valley Regional District but continue to occasionally work here. Metro officials hope law-abiding operators and local residents will help keep watch for violators. Two inspectors are being hired to enforce the new rules.

Metro’s diesel crackdown • Fees start at $4 per horsepower in 2012 and climb to $20 by 2017. • Those fees apply on the worst Tier 0 engines (typically pre-1996) and kick in two years later on Tier 1 engines. Cleaner Tier 2 to 4 engines are exempt. • A 120-horse excavator would pay $480 at first, rising to $2,400 per year if the engine isn’t upgraded or replaced.

• 80 per cent of fees paid in the previous three years is refunded for owners who upgrade. • Worst Tier 0 machines must carry a ‘T0’ decal. • Only off-road equipment is affected and there are many exemptions, including farm and recreational machinery, emergency standby generators and machines under 25 horsepower. jnagel@surreyleader.com

TRANSLINK BRIEFS

More cash from parking

Plan Ahead!

by Jeff Nagel ONE AREA WHERE TransLink is collecting signifi-

cantly more money is its controversial pay parking tax, which tripled from seven to 21 per cent in 2010. That was expected to generate $46.3 million last year – up from $15.6 million previously. But TransLink actually collected $58.4 million from the parking tax in 2010, according to spokesman Ken Hardie. “A bunch of new properties came on line, including new hotels,” he said. “So we outdid the budget by a fair piece.” Some pay parking companies are estimating a decrease in the use of their lots since the tax hike. Hardie said it’s too early to tell whether TransLink’s take will slip this year. Since the 12 per cent HST is applied and compounds on top of the 21 per cent pay parking tax, the total tax paid by pay lot users is 35.52 per cent.

Canada Line ruling reversed CAMBIE STREET merchant Susan Heyes has lost her

legal battle for compensation from TransLink and the builders of the Canada Line. The B.C. Court of Appeal overturned a previous court judgment that awarded Heyes $600,000 for lost business at her maternity wear store when the rapid-transit line was built by digging a cut-and-cover trench rather than with a more costly bored tunnel. The appeal court judges ruled the traffic closures due to cut-and-cover did interfere with Heyes business, but TransLink and InTransitBC were within their rights to make that choice. A bored tunnel would have been better for Cambie Village merchants like Heyes but would have been significantly more disruptive in other densely populated areas, including the busy Broadway area, according to the ruling. Heyes has said she may appeal the legal defeat to the Supreme Court of Canada. She said she is not in a position to repay the money she was previously awarded.

Michael Gerald Larson was killed in 2007 Black Press TWO MEN charged in connection with the 2007

death of Michael Gerald Larson have both pleaded guilty and been sentenced in Surrey Provincial Court. Darryl Karl Cole, 43, pleaded guilty last week to manslaughter in the beating death of Larson, who was found dead in his Surrey home in the 15600 block of 48 Avenue on Dec. 1, 2007. In court last Tuesday, Cole was sentenced to 13-and-a-half years in prison, minus four-and-a-half years for time already served. Cole’s co-accused, Joshua Steven Holl, pleaded guilty the week prior and was sentenced to eight years in jail, minus four-and-a-half years for time served.

The pair were among four people who were planning to rob a marijuana grow operation that Larson was taking care of. When they first broke into the home, Larson tried to run and pepper-sprayed by Holl. Then Cole beat Larson with a bat until he was unconscious and he was tied up while the thieves stole what they wanted and left. Earlier testimony indicated Larson may have survived had he received immediate medical attention. Both Cole and Holl were arrested in 2008 and were ordered last year to stand trial on two counts each of first-degree murder and conspiracy in B.C. Supreme Court. Instead, however, they recently opted to plead guilty to the lesser charge of manslaughter in provincial court. newsroom@surreyleader.com

Shooting in North Surrey Victim shot in stomach, police say Black Press A MAN WAS SHOT in North Sur-

rey last week, an incident that still has police seeking details. RCMP were first told the man was shot by passing car. Now it appears that at about 5 p.m. Thursday (Feb. 24), the man was shot in a residence in the 11900 block of 99 Avenue and was being carried by friends down the street when a passing police car stopped them.

While the Surrey Gang Task Force was present at the scene, police say the incident was not gang-related. “We’ve ruled out gang associations and we’ve ruled that it’s not a drive-by shooting,” said RCMP Cpl. Drew Grainger. Investigators are currently focused on a residence. Police have information the victim had been at, or near, the residence voluntarily. The 20-year-old victim was

shot in the stomach and taken to a nearby hospital with non-life threatening injuries. Police say the victim and the gunman were known to each other and the victim was also known to police.

First, one must be able to prove that someone was negligent. For instance, in a trafÅc accident, you have to be able to prove that somebody else was responsible. (Indeed, the accident does not have to be an automobile accident either.) Second, of course, the death has to ensue from the injuries suffered in the accident.

Claims arising from wrongful deaths in British Columbia are governed by the B.C. Family Compensation Act. This Act is primarily designed to compensate dependents of the deceased for their economic loss. In order to succeed with a claim for compensation, there are three necessary factors.

The third requirement in British Columbia is that the deceased has economic dependents. For instance, if an eight-year-old child is run over in the road and killed, there would normally be no economic compensation as the child would not have dependents. There can be exceptions to this if the child would, for instance, have been expected, within his culture, to support his parents when they became older. To summarize, in order to bring a claim under the Family Compensation Act, there must be proof that someone was negligent; the death must be caused by the negligence of this person or persons and there must also be dependents affected Ånancially by the loss; the dependents are normally the ones who would initiate the claim.

Arts website from Metro Taxpayers pay to start online calendar by Jeff Nagel METRO Vancouver has

Delta truck crash Witnesses sought Black Press ONE PERSON was airlifted to hospital following a three-vehicle collision Monday morning along Highway 10 in east Delta. According to Delta Police, around 10:30 a.m. a semi-truck loaded with lumber was travelling westbound on Highway 10 when it lost control on a curve in the road near Highway 91 and forced one vehicle off the road. The truck then crashed head on into a second vehicle before coming to a stop in a ditch. Police said the driver of the vehicle hit headon suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries. Delta Police investigators talked with people at the scene but believe there are additional witnesses that have not been spoken to yet, specifically a semitruck driver who was travelling eastbound along Highway 10 and had to veer onto the shoulder to avoid the collision. Anyone who may have witnessed this collision is asked to call 946-4411. Please quote file number 11-3612.

“This is going to link all the arts and cultural events in the entire Metro Vancouver area into one central site.” Besides debate at the board about whether Metro should be

for something new this year!

Pick something new today! Are you interested in activities where you can express yourself on stage or in public, but you don’t necessarily want to memorize the long texts associated with theatre workshops? You should consider signing up for a course in improvisation. An improvisation workshop will develop your confidence for public speaking, stimulate your imagination, let you dream and inspire others to dream, all while having fun. Improvisers must stage a short sketch based on a situation or a theme, while respecting the timeframes and directions given at the beginning. Improvisation solicits a connection between the actors, the situation, and the space. Being a good improviser is an art that can be learned! A person who knows how to improvise channels his or her stress and transforms it CE SIN

into positive energy, has a great ability for listening, and knows how to effectively verbalize messages. Improvisation workshops aim to develop team spirit, improve communication, attentive listening, creativity, and, above all, the ability to express precise ideas in a clear manner. We often think that improvisation courses are for students. However, there are many improvisation workshops available for adults who wish to develop their creativity too. Improvisation is an adventure that develops self-confidence on stage, stimulates spontaneity, dispels the fear of memory blanks (stage fright), as well as reactivates the flow of your imagination. Without mentioning that the fun generated by this activity will help you manage your stress. Have a good laugh and get involved today!

Canada Winter Games

Podium placings in Halifax

by Rick Kupchuk

COHEN HOCKING of North Delta

added a silver medal to the gold he earned four days earlier at the Canada Winter Games in Halifax. Hocking, 18, won two of his three judo matches Sunday morning, helping B.C. to a second place finish in the team competition. Competing in the 66 kg. class, Hocking stopped Wiley Tait in the quarterfinal round, helping B.C. to a 30-20 victory over Alberta. He was a winner again in the semifinal, upending Marcus Mason in another 30-20 victory by Team B.C., this time over New Brunswick. In the gold medal match, Hocking was defeated by Michael Fortin Demers of Quebec in B.C.’s 30-15 loss. Last week, Hocking won four consecutive matches to take the gold in individual competition. ■ Eric Hsu, 18, of South Surrey earned a bronze medal in the badminton team event which concluded Saturday. Team B.C. was grouped with New Brunswick and Newfoundland and Labrador in the first round, advancing with a pair of 5-0 victories, with Hsu teaming with Vivian Yan of Victoria to defeat a duo from New Brunswick 21-17, 21-18. Placed in a four-team group for the second round, Team B.C. was again undefeated, with Hsu compet-

ing in two of the three wins. He was paired with Vanora Lo of Vancouver in a mixed double match against Nova Scotia, then was with Christin Tsai against Manitoba, winning both contests in straight sets. Saturday night’s semifinal saw Hsu and Clinton Wong battle from behind for a 14-21, 21-19, 21-18 victory over a Quebec pair in a 3-0 Team B.C. win.B.C. was edged 3-2 by Ontario in the gold medal match, with Hsu losing his first match of the week. Teamed with Wong in a match that would decide the gold, they won the first game 21-16, then dropped two in a row 14-21, 11-21. ■ South Surrey para-nordic skier Mary Benson won a silver medal Thursday. Benson, 50, finished second in the five-km classic mass start race in a time of 23:00.50, ahead of Burnaby’s Courtney Knight (24.16.30), who finished in the bronze-medal position. Margarita Gorbounova of Ontario won the event in 22:49.10, 11.4 seconds ahead of Benson. ■ Vanessa Baxter just missed a medal in synchronized swimming’s duet category Friday morning. Paired with 15-year-old Olivia Zawadiuk of Coquitlam, the Team B.C. duo placed fourth in the A final with a score of 72.344. Alberta won the bronze medal with a score of 73.361.

KEVEN DUBINSKY / CONTRIBUTOR

Cohen Hocking (right) competes in judo at the Canada Winter Games in Halifax. The North Delta resident won a gold medal in individual competition, and won two of three matches for a silver medal in team competition. Baxter, and 16-year-olds Kelli Gustafsson and Erin Williams were on the 10-member B.C. group which placed fourth in the team event Friday night. Team B.C. scored 69.954, trailing the third place score of 73.111 of Ontario. ■ Figure skater Krista Milne, 23, placed ninth in the Special Olympics Singles category, after skating her Elements program last Tuesday and

the Free Skate on Thursday. But for her mom, Patti Milne, just competing was a highlight. “Being accepted by the general population here is an awesome experience for all the Special Olympics athletes,” she said. “It provides an opportunity to grow mentally, physically and emotionally, and encourages them to be a regular member of society. “To see Krista do what she does is

incredible.” ■ Shayna Goodwin was ninth in the halfpipe event. Her score of 17.1 left her three places shy of a berth in the final. Goodwin, 16, qualified for the quarterfinal round of the snowboard cross event after placing seventh in qualifying in a time of 1:07.80. She was eliminated in her four-person quarterfinal group, placing third.

Dillon signs with Dallas Surrey native to play pro hockey by Rick Kupchuk WITH JUST WEEKS remaining

in his junior hockey career, Surrey’s Brenden Dillon is going to go pro. The 20-year-old defenceman with the Seattle Thunderbirds of the Western Hockey League inked a three-year entry level contract with the Dallas Stars Tuesday, opting to sign with the Texas team after considering offers from other National Hockey League organizations. “I have appreciated the attention and interest from NHL teams,” said Dillon in a press release. “I am excited and looking forward to being a part of the Stars organization.” Dillon, the team captain, is in his fourth season with the Thunderbirds, and is currently second in team scoring with

50 points on six goals and 44 assists. The six-foot-three, 209-pound blueliner has also earned 128 penalty minutes. Dillon will stay in Seattle until the conclusion of the 2010-11 season. Seattle is currently fifth in the U.S. Division of the WHL, five points out of a playoff position with eight games to play. He could be assigned to a farm team within the Stars organization once the Thunderbirds season concludes. Dillon has had a small taste of pro hockey, having attended the Pittsburgh Penguins training camp as an 18-year-old in 2009. In 271 games in Seattle, Dillon has tallied nine goals and assisted on 76 assists for 85 points over four seasons, while accumulating 365 penalty minutes.

Young actors hop on stage Surrey Youth Theatre Company present the musical A Year With Frog and Toad Black Press

urrey Arts Centre will be awash in amiable amphibians – and talent – when the young players of Surrey Youth Theatre Company (SYTCO) present A Year With Frog and Toad, March 4-6. Based on the popular children’s books by Arnold Lobel, the Tony-nominated Broadway musical has music by Robert Reale and book and lyrics by Willie Reale, and is directed by SYTCO founder and artistic director Susan Pendleton, with choreography by the ubiquitous Carol Seitz. Staying true to the spirit of the original books, the family friendly show follows cheerful Frog and sometimes grumpy Toad through four fun-filled seasons, along the way celebrating the idea of friendship and the attributes that make each of us different and special. Awaking from hibernation in the spring, Frog (Ethan Donnelly) and Toad (Cassandra Strain) enjoy themselves – and meet new friends – while planting gardens, swimming in the pond in the summer, raking leaves in the fall and sledding downhill in the winter. Also featured in the production are Benjamin Dunnill (Snail), Jordan Aisenstat (Mouse) and Marina Cyr, Fiona Firby and Adriana Dobbie (The Three Birds). Completing the cast are Kana Saarni, Paisley Hoogenraad, Kallista Van Beest, Madison Smith, Andrea Moorhouse, Elizabeth Olsson and Jenna Gunderson. The show, which is best suited for audiences aged three and up, lasts 70 minutes. A Year With Frog and Toad is the second SYTCO production this year, following the successful run of Madeline’s Christmas. Next production for the group is the return of its powerful educational theatre piece The Orphan Train, which will be available to schools, churches and community groups throughout the spring. Performances are 7 p.m. tonight (Friday), March 4; 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. March 5; and 2 p.m. March 6. Tickets are $17.70 and $12.70 for seniors and children five and under; or $22.70 and $17.70 for tickets that include a special Cookies with Frog and Toad party following the Sunday matinée. For reservations, call 604-501-5566 or visit www.arts.surrey.ca

A year With Frog and Toad features (left to right) Jordan Aisenstat (Mouse), Ethan Donnelly (Frog) and Cassandra Strain (Toad), who will hold a special cookie party for kids following this Sunday’s performance.

The City of Surrey is looking for input as it develops a new Cultural Plan and will be hosting a series of open houses in the various parts of Surrey to provide information and solicit ideas for the plan, which will serve as a practical guide for the future development of arts and heritage services in Surrey. The first open house will be held in South Surrey on March 16 from 5-8 p.m. at Elgin Hall, 14250 Crescent Rd. Everyone is welcome. The open houses will encourage partici-

pants to consider needs Surrey-wide, as well as what individual Town Centres’ arts and heritage strengths, gaps and priorities are. Ideas will also be sought regarding opportunities for public art, the role of new cultural facilities, Surrey Museum expansion and effective communication about

arts and heritage. The community discussions are meant to enhance awareness and understanding of the role of arts and heritage in Surrey’s ongoing evolution as a major urban centre. “Surrey has a vibrant arts and heritage scene that plays a very important role in

shaping our City,” said Mayor Dianne Watts. “As we move forward, we need to engage residents and businesses and develop a comprehensive cultural plan that meets the needs of our growing communities.” A “World Café” – a round-table workshop involving dozens of key individuals tasked with generating ideas for maintaining and promoting Surrey’s cultural sector – was held Tuesday (March 1). The ideas will be shared at the open houses. To assist the Cultural Plan process, the city is also developing a Cultural Inventory, outlining Surrey’s cultural resources. Groups and individuals involved in arts and heritage are encouraged to go to the project website (www.surrey.ca/culturalplan) to ensure they are part of this snapshot. Following the consultation process, the city will draft a cultural plan outlining a strategy for Surrey’s continued cultural

Irresistible force meets immovable object! On the coast of northern British Columbia, hard-bitten Gertie owns The Sea Horse, a run-down waterfront bar. Gertie has seen it all, liked none of it, and is bound and determined that no one will change her mind. Enter Harry, a seaman of limited means but unlimited dreams. Two forces of nature that attract and repel each other in equal measure drive this stormy romance ﬁlled with humour and drama. Mature themes and language.

Delta had given the DAC a year’s worth of free rent after a withdrawal of provincial gaming grants left it short on funds. “When that happened in August of 2009, we lost $50,000 or about one-sixth of our funding,” Stevens said. Faced with the shortfall, The Delta Arts Council’s leases have been terminated at its four venues, including the DAC attempted to pare down its operations as Delta the Firehall Centre for the Arts in North granted one-year free rental Delta. of the four buildings which “We are very appreciative of all what expired in January 2011. the city (Delta Municipality) has done Unable to reorganize and secure for us, but we would like to see the peradequate funding to keep the four forming arts and arts in general receive venues open under lease arrangemore support,” he said. ments – The Tsawwassen Arts CenHampering the restructuring of tre, The Art Corner Gallery and Gift the DAC during the year of free Shop in the Ladner Pioneer Library, access to Delta’s buildings was the and the Firehall Centre for the Arts loss of the majority of the council’s and artSpace in North Delta – the volunteer executive.

ford Branch, began volunteer coaching in 2002 and eventually became head coach of the Surrey Special Olympics track and field team. In recent years, she has also lent her professional expertise to the organization by taking on fundraising and executive roles, learning valuable new skills in the process. Recently, she helped present the Surrey Special Olympics with a $1,000 cheque through the Volunteer Grants Program at her bank branch. Taylor said she is thrilled to have had the chance to meet the inspiring athletes who live in her community.

Crosswalk choreography by Jennifer Lang

f Blanche Vantol always has a smile, it’s because she loves what she does. She’s a school crossing guard, and her enthusiasm exudes out every pore. Twice a day, five days a week, she choreographs a complex ballet outside École Martha Currie Elementary School as the nearly 600 students – along with parents and grandparents picking them up or dropping them off by car or foot – make their way across 184 Street. “It’s really been a privilege to just do my bit. It just makes my day,” smiles Vantol, a former businesswoman who came out of retirement to volunteer as a crossing guard at the school two blocks from her 58A Avenue home of 30 years. During her first shift in November 2008, a surprised little preschooler told her, “You used to be a man!” They all know her now, and whether they call her Madame Blanc (to the French immersion students) or Mrs. Blanche, everyone seems to adore her. They trust her, too. “The only reason I let my daughter walk to school is because I know she’s safe,” says parent Jennifer Criddle, whose eight-year-old daughter attends Martha Currie. Vantol greets many of her young charges by name – their adult caregivers, too – and everyone from the tiniest preschooler in a stroller to passing motorists who drive the route regularly receives one of her trademark smiles. “I’m out there two hours a day, so there’s lots of time to get to know people,” she says. “It really brings structure to my day.” In return there’s lots of hellos, gossip and even hugs for this multitasking blonde – an enviable, but undeniable distraction. Her goal is to keep cars and trucks flowing smoothly while allowing chil-

dren to cross 184 Street safely. even realize she was up for the annual Stationed at “the corner” at the cross- award. walk, her eagle eyes don’t miss a thing.

Dealing with the kids who are late is particularly challenging: They’re rushing because they don’t want to miss the bell – and so intent on their goal of getting to school they forget about traffic safety or the threat of getting hit by a car. Fortunately, Mrs. Blanche/ Mme Blanc is there to help. Blanche Vantol has been awarded the Frontiersmen “I’ve now saved Competition Club for her role as a volunteer school about five kids from running right crossing guard. out into traffic, catching them just at the last moment,” Vantol says she didn’t set out to become the best.

How often a person with diabetes tests should be individulized. It will depend on how you treat your diabetes, the type of diabetes and the need for the information, such as the situation where medications need to be adjusted. When testing blood glucose, it is important to do it at different times throughout the day such as fasting, before meals, 2 hours after a meal and at bedtime. Testing should also be done before, during and after exercise, during periods of illness and any time you are not feeling well and believe it may be related to your blood gluce levels. According to the Canadian Diabetes Associations latest guidelines, the following target blood glucose levels are recommended: 1. Fasting or pre-meal blood glucose 4.0mmol/L-7.0mmol/L 2. 2-hour post meal blood glucose 5.0mmol/L-10.0mmol/l Choosing a blood glucose monitor is a very personal decision. You will want to check with your Medicine Shoppe Pharmacist to see what you should look for in a meter and what is appropiate for your particular needs (ex dexterity, vision and general understanding).
