Surrey landlord fined $115,000

Needless fire deaths targeted

Failed to repair Kwantlen Park Manor

Surrey and the province to crack down on lack of functioning smoke alarms

by Kevin Diakiw

by Kevin Diakiw HAVE YOU ever popped the battery out of your smoke alarm

when food overcooks and sets it off? It’s a seemingly harmless practice that could prove deadly. Scores of people are dying needlessly in residential fires in Surrey and across the country every year, simply because their smoke alarms are either broken or have been disabled. In fact, even smoke alarms that haven’t been tampered with can fail to function over time. And it’s primarily the young, poor, elderly, addicted and aboriginals who are dying in the fires, according to a report published by the University College of the Fraser Valley. Last March, nine families were disQ Nearly 33% were seniors (over placed from their Whalley apartments after a fire in one of the suites spread age 65) through the building. The original unit did not have a Q Almost 29% were impaired by functioning smoke alarm.

Q About 45% A study being released today looked were asleep at 50,000 residential fires in Alberta, B.C. and Ontario over a five-year period. Out of those fires, there were 663 deaths – 500 of which (75.4 per cent of the total) were attributable to a non-functioning smoke alarm. Using those numbers, Surrey Fire Chief Len Garis, one of the study’s authors and president of the B.C. Fire Chiefs’ Association, said if every home in Canada had functioning smoke alarms, 69 lives could be saved each year – about 10 in Surrey.

THE LANDLORD of a soggy Surrey dwelling has been ordered to pay a $115,000 penalty for failing to plug the leak in the roof of the Whalley complex. It’s the first time the Residential Tenancy Branch (RTB) has levied such a fine against a landlord in B.C. Tenants at Kwantlen Park Manor, at 12975 106 Ave., have long complained about the damp conditions Tenants in the building. have long Gurdyal complained Singh Sahota and about his company the damp Waterford Developconditions in ments the building. have been ordered several times in the past to fix the leaky roof, but it was never done.

Surrey murder may be related to gangs Man stabbed to death in Fraser Heights Saturday by Kevin Diakiw A MAN is dead after an attempted

home invasion in Fraser Heights on the weekend, and police believe the attack may have been gangrelated. Police named the victim as 26-year-old Jan Aron Korinth of Surrey. Just after 11 p.m. Saturday, police received a 911 call that someone had been stabbed in the 10800 block of 168 Street. Police and emergency health services arrived, but could not immediately find the victim. Moments later, police received a call from a residence about a mile away from a person reporting an attack on the tenant in a basement suite. Police arrived at the address in Jennifer Pound the 11000 block of 168 Street to find a man suffering from head wounds and what appeared to be the effects of bear spray. He was treated in hospital and released. Police found evidence of a struggle and a blood trail, which led them to a nearby location where an unresponsive Korinth was found. He died at the scene. “It appears that this may be a case of an attempted home invasion or break and enter of some kind that turned into a physical struggle, “ said Sgt. Jennifer Pound. She added that police believe it is gang-related. kdiakiw@surreyleader.com

Landlord: Must pay fine by May 15 From Page 1

EVAN SEAL / THE LEADER

Kwantlen Park Manor is located at 12975 106 Ave.

The fine against Sahota and his company includes a $5,000 one-time penalty and $500 for each day since the last order to fix the roof. Sahota is also owner of Pinewood Apartments on Pandora Street, a single-room occupancy hotel in the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver which flooded after the roof collapsed. Similarities between Kwantlen Park Manor and the Pandora property are pointed out in the RTB ruling. Perhaps most notable is the amount of warning the landlord

had that the building was deficient. In both cases, those warnings came from a former caretaker. “Testimony in (previous hearings) confirms that the landlord was made aware of maintenance issues with the residential property that included the water ingress into the residential rental units from the roof as early as 2005,” the RTB ruling states. “In November 2009, the landlord was notified that four suites on the second floor of the residential property had leaking ceilings and a resident of one of the landlord’s properties was hired to do the repairs.” On hearing that, the engineer hired

to examine the building said he was not told of the extent of the damage. The documents indicate the landlord “has a history of consistently not completing maintenance on the residential property or having substandard repairs made on the building.” Sahota’s representative said the Pandora comparison was completely unrelated, and irrelevant to the case because it happened more than two years ago. Sahota has until May 15 to pay the fine. kdiakiw@surreyleader.com

New TransLink taxes concern business B.C. Chamber of Commerce president says regional tolling would be fairer than car levy, carbon tax by Jeff Nagel BUSINESS leaders are

worried proposals to

raise more money for TransLink by charging an annual vehicle fee or a new carbon tax in

Metro Vancouver may harm the economy. B.C. Chamber of Commerce President

John Winter said he thinks the regional mayors’ council should abandon the two

options and accept higher property taxes for now while they pursue longer-term

particularly with the carbon tax and vehicle levy,” he said. Metro Vancouver mayors want province to enable the new funding sources to raise an extra $30 million – committed last year to ensure the Evergreen Line proceeds – that will otherwise be added to property taxes starting in 2013. They’re also pushing for the provincial government to allow road pricing, which could extend tolls more consistently across the region as a long-term revenue source to build new rapid transit lines on Vancouver’s Broadway corridor to UBC and through Surrey to Langley and White Rock. Winter said a new regional carbon tax would hit key industries in Metro Vancouver, particularly cement plants and the greenhouse industry. “They can’t really change their carbon footprint,” he said. “That’s quite inequitable and it’s a huge part of the economy.” The cost of goods and services in the region could also be forced up, he said. Winter said a vehicle levy gives people no way to avoid paying if they own a car, so there is no daily incentive to conserve or try transit, cycling or walking. The existing gas tax of 17 cents a litre for TransLink at least allows motorists to drive less to reduce their fuel bill, but he acknowledged the gas tax differential in Metro also sends many drivers out of the region to refuel and contributes to cross-border shopping. He said Surrey-area residents would be doubly hit if they have to pay a vehicle levy as well as $3-plus tolls to cross the Fraser River. Winter said Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts’ call for more modest region-wide tolling makes more sense than the vehicle levy, particularly with the Port Mann Bridge about to be tolled along with the Golden Ears Bridge. “If driving across Burrard Inlet becomes subject to some sort See BRIDGES / Page 5

Bridges: Broader tolls predicted

Do You Play Hockey Hurt?

From page 4 of toll, so be it,” Winter said. “It strikes me as being far more equitable.” The B.C. Chamber remains on record as supporting introduction of a road management system in the region – potentially similar to mayors’ calls for road pricing – to raise money while controlling congestion and traffic flows. Winter predicted the provincial government will be forced to alter its tolling policy and open up tolling of existing bridges and roads, something transportation minister Blair Lekstrom maintains isn’t under consideration. He said tolls on the Port Mann may have seemed a good idea to residents south of the Fraser clamouring for a new bridge a couple of years ago. “But as it gets closer to fruition, memories get shorter.” Winter also said government claims that toll-averse motorists will quickly reach free bridges via the South Fraser Perimeter Road

B.C. Trucking Association president and CEO Louise Yako also said she expects the province will be forced to consider broader tolling, noting motorists already avoid the Golden Ears Bridge because they refuse to pay there. She said her organization understands TransLink’s challenge in

finding new funding as the region’s population grows. “Our concern is that whatever mechanism is chosen doesn’t unfairly place a burden on commercial vehicle owners and operators,” Yako said. “We already have the highest fuel taxes in North America.” Goods movers do not have a public transit alternative to using the roads, she added.

Langleys should join Surrey THE AMALGAMATION of Langley

City and Township sounds like a reasonable plan to me. However, I’d like to make a suggestion for even more effective governance. Why don’t we all apply to become part of Surrey? Having unfortunately moved to Langley from Surrey, I know that road maintenance, for instance, is far superior to ours. Our road on 36 Avenue would be promptly ploughed after a snow fall, whereas the Langley Township side would not. What is more, we would be run by that brilliant mayor, Dianne Watts who, in my opinion, is the smartest politician in the province. What is more, we would be the most formidable force in the GVRD and think of the money we’d save. Mike Harvey Langley

negotiation soon in British Columbia, I would like to propose two ideas which I feel will improve the quality of life of workers. The first is encouraging telecommuting or working from home. This is good for the environment with less congestion on the roads and public transit. Employees would have better and longer sleep and arguably be more productive on the

job working flexible hours when they are at their peak. The second is providing full-time government employees with the “option” of working half-time. This will result in more time off to spend with their families, a lower tax bracket for employees, and it would free up a lot more jobs for new workers. It’s a great way to redistribute the employment wealth during these tough economic times.

Yes, government employees would have to learn how to live on marginally less income but this does not mean they will suffer from a lower quality of life. Maybe this will result in a shift in our consumer spending priorities leading to new innovation, market ideas, and more affordable goods and services.

Save now, but pay more later GIVEN THE cost of things these

days, I find it hard to wrap my head around the fact that it cost just $126 million to build BC Place back in 1983. Wow. A price like that would be a serious bargain today considering we just spent $560 million to give BC Place a major overhaul, at fourand-a-half times the original cost. The same applies to all the public infrastructure we benefit from on a daily basis: Roads and bridges, transit systems, hydro dams and the transmission lines that bring power to our homes and businesses. All of these cost a lot less to build 30 years ago than they would if they were built today. We could easily balk at the cost to maintain core infrastructure and simply let everything fall into hopeless disrepair. That would certainly save us some cash in the short term. But in the long term, a strategy like that would only prove to be false economy. And clearly, the money we spend today to maintain our dams, roads, bridges, and all of the other infrastructure we depend on will seem like a bargain 30 years from now.

am sending this as a response to the Raeside comic you published on March 13 (which asked what teachers accomplished by going on strike for three days earlier this month). I thought that the comic touched on a very real response to the teachers’ three-day withdrawal of services. As a teacher myself, I have thought quite a bit about what the purpose was and what the effects might be. I took the time to write down my thoughts, should you be interested in seeing how a real teacher would respond to the question, “What do you think you accomplished?” Charlene Penich Surrey kindergarten teacher

Sense of community lost with illegal suites SURREY’S ZONING bylaw only

permits one secondary suite per single-family home. There are also no safety provisions in the B.C. Building Code for multiple “secondary suites” in a single-family dwelling. Therefore, the city says it will initiate closure of multiple suites as these properties are identified. So then why is it that at least 95 per cent of my neighbourhood has homes with multiple basement suites being rented? I am opposed to basement suites in general, but the fact that most homes in this area are basically being used as apartments is outrageous. These houses weren’t built to accommodate 30 people. My neighbourhood was once designated as single-family homes,

but that is definitely no longer the case. My street is overcrowded, police frequent due to renter disputes and there is no sense of community. Can it really even be called a “neighbourhood”? The idea of high-density living in Surrey is a redundant concept. Sur-

rey has enough building space that there is not really a need for highdensity housing, but actually more so for low-income housing. Instead of wasteful spending in other areas, the city should focus on creating more affordable housing. If people are not able to buy their

In support of the police RE: “NO MORE power to them,” Letters, The Leader, March 15.

Letter writer John Evoy states, “The traffic lights at 24 Avenue and 160 and 161 Streets were not working and three police cars hid on the side strreets in order to nail drivers not fully stopping for these intersections.” If the lights are not working, you assume the four-way or three-way stop procedure. If you do not, you are putting your life and other lives at risk. Those who do not stop deserve the consequences of their illegal act. The police “sting operation” was justified and more power to them. It is all about saving lives. The fines are a bonus. Fred Perry, Surrey

home unless they rent multiple suites, they shouldn’t be owners of such expensive homes to begin with. Since I am probably one of the rare few in my area who sees this as a problem, should I start singlehandedly reporting every house in my neighbourhood for their multiple suites? Wouldn’t the city jump at this opportunity to collect $200 a day from multiple suite operators until the suites have been shut down? I doubt it. Why? Because there is not enough manpower to do the job and when most of the city’s homeowners have multiple suites there isn’t really anyone left to complain and everyone else just moves, which seems to be the only viable solution at this point.

Whalley icon faces uncertain future

Father Mykhaylo Pozdyk at St. Mary’s Ukrainian-Greek Orthodox Church. EVAN SEAL / THE LEADER

Welcome To Spring

St. Mary’s Ukrainian-Greek Orthodox Church needs money to replace the roof on 60-year-old landmark by Kevin Diakiw IT WAS LAST YEAR when Katherine Miske noticed some of the bulbs were burning out on the huge chandelier at St. Mary’s Ukrainian-Greek Orthodox Church in North Surrey. When she went to replace them, she noticed water had been leaking through the roof into the 320-kilogram (700-pound) light fixture, shorting it out. Then, a month before last Christmas, Miske noticed the supporting beam holding the chandelier was crumbling, threatening to give way and allow the giant fixture to fall. At that point, Miske, who is the parish president, discovered there was a much larger problem with the iconic landmark at 10765 135A Street in Whalley. The roof on the heritage build-

ing was rotting. A closer look at the domed roof indicated it needs replacing, or at the very least, required improved structural support. The estimated cost to properly support the dome is about $120,000, while replacement would cost $300,000. Discussions ensued about what to do, and the notion of simply selling the property for development was considered. But Miske said the church is still structurally sound, and said the parish is planning to raise funds and do the work through its own congregation. She acknowledges they could use some help. Rev. Father Mykhaylo Pozdyk said it’s fortunate they took the chandelier down before someone was hurt. “I’m alive, so thank you God,

I’m alive,” Pozdyk said, adding “we are collecting money (for the roof repairs) and any help would be helpful.” The church was built between 1950 and 1955 with volunteer labour and is on the City of Surrey’s heritage register. “St. Mary’s is valued for its traditional Greek-Orthodox architectural features, such as the cross gabled roof on a Greek cross plan, with an octagonal dome over the central interior space,” the City of Surrey’s website states. “The interior also features traditional elements such as a carved iconostasis screen. It remains a symbol of the Ukrainian community, and traditional Ukrainian Greek-Orthodox services are still held at St. Mary’s.” Anyone wishing to help financially or with reconstruction can call 604-581-0313 or visit www. uocstmarysurrey.com

Deal brings new era for cities with RCMP 20-year contract promises better cost control and accountability by Jeff Nagel FEDERAL AND provin-

cial ministers signed

a new 20-year RCMP contract today, ushering in what B.C. cities hope will be a new relation-

ship with the Mounties and much better control over spiralling police costs.

Urgent Health & Safety Recall Easter Toy Shower Duck Product #2569390 UPC# 0012495979167

In consultation with Health Canada, London Drugs is voluntarily recalling the described product because of a health hazard to children existing due to a risk of choking/suffocation. Please see customer service in-store for product returns or for more information. London Drugs regrets any concern or inconvenience this may cause.

City councils, which got their first look at the full text last week, have until the end of April to ratify the agreement themselves. Any city that doesn’t like it can terminate their RCMP service and form a municipal police force or partner with an existing one. Cities will also get a two-year opt out option going forward and a review of the contract is promised every five years, allowing it to be re-opened. “We are creating far more transparency and accountability in policing,” B.C. Justice Minister Shirley Bond said at a signing ceremony with federal Public Safety Minister Vic Toews at the Surrey RCMP detachment, the country’s largest. “For the first time, we will have the ability to question costs, to look

at breakdowns of costs, to say ‘do we really need to have those kinds of things take place in British Columbia?’ “ Toews said it’s also in Ottawa’s interest to rein in costs. Officials say the deal finally puts cities in better position to control costs and plan for them, rather than simply paying whatever bills are sent to them. “This is a major shift from what we had before,” said Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender, the civic observer in the talks. Many cities have seen their RCMP costs – usually the biggest item in a municipal budget – climb six to seven per cent each year. That’s not as severe as some unionized municipal forces, where costs have climbed by up to 14 per cent a year

JEFF NAGEL / THE LEADER

B.C. Justice Minister Shirley Bond, joined by federal Public Safety Minister Vic Toews, signs a new 20-tear deal with the RCMP at Surrey’s main detachment on Wednesday afternoon. in some cases. But municipalities have a wary eye on whether Mounties form a union, a scenario that would sharply drive up costs. At the heart of the deal is a new B.C. local government contract management committee with 10 representatives from cities who are promised much more hands-on control of spending changes, instead of just an advisory role. It’s still unclear, however, whether cities can ultimately refuse to pay costs they object to. Fassbender said the hope is RCMP decisions will be shaped by civic input well before that point. Cities will also be privy to the RCMP’s five-year financial plans, so they can better prepare for cost changes. Previously, municipalities had no say on national programs; they were given only a oneyear planning horizon on cost, and had no ability to review programs or detachment administration levels, or challenge service delivery methods. Improvements in the deal include an agreement that Ottawa will cover 30 per cent of the costs of integrated policing teams such as the gang task force and IHIT, up from 10 per cent now. No change was made in the overall costsharing formula, which makes large cities with more than 15,000 residents pay 90 per cent of costs, while smaller cities shoulder 70 per cent. That works out to about $468 million per year for large cities, which host nearly 3,000

officers, while smaller cities pay about $54 million. The estimated RCMP increase for 2012-13 is around 0.7 per cent, or $2.35 million for larger cities and 1.7 per cent or $5.7 million for the province, although Victoria expects its share may go higher in future years. B.C. last fall threatened to withdraw from the RCMP and start its own provincial force after the federal government issued an ultimatum to sign the contract or lose the Mounties in 2014. At the time, SFU criminologist Rob Gordon said Bond’s claim B.C. was pursuing a “plan B” was likely nothing but “sabrerattling.” But he contends the province should still look at creating regional police forces for Metro Vancouver and Greater Victoria to end a “patchwork” of RCMP and municipal police jurisdictions. “Those are natural areas for amalgamation of services and the creation of cost-effective policing,” Gordon said. Bond said B.C. continues to pursue more integrated services, but does not rule out regionalization. “We’re happy to have a discussion about that,” she said. “But it has to be led by locally elected officials. There’s a divided view about how that should be approached.” Officials also noted B.C. is launching a new independent investigation office, which promises better civilian oversight of RCMP officers involved in serious incidents. jnagel@surreyleader.com

Agencies launch rival recycling apps Metro Vancouver, Recycling Council duplicate efforts by Jeff Nagel METRO VANCOUVER and the

Recycling Council of B.C. have launched duelling recycling apps that offer mobile search for depot locations, but also raise questions about why two agencies devoted to reducing waste didn’t coordinate their efforts. Metro launched its WeRecycle iPhone app last week – a few weeks after the Recycling Council unveiled its own B.C. Recyclepedia app, which also covers the rest of B.C. RCBC CEO Brock Macdonald said Metro gave his non-profit agency no heads up it was working on an app, but adds it probably shouldn’t have come as a surprise. “It seems like we do a webbased service and then they do one, we do a Zero Waste Conference, they do one. We do a phone app, they do one,” Macdonald said. “Imitation is the greatest form of flattery, so I guess we’re very flattered by that.”

But he agreed taxpayers might ask whether the duplication was necessary. Macdonald said he questions Metro’s focus in the area because a coming change to put industry steward groups in charge of an expanded blue box recycling system may leave cities with much less of a role than in the past. Both agencies say their apps – which are free – cost little to no money to develop. RCBC’s was volunteer-developed in partnership with the Society for Promoting Environmental Conservation (SPEC). Metro’s was developed inhouse at no unusual cost by staff who previously launched apps for regional parks and sources of local tap water. “It’s a little coincidental they came out at the same time,” Metro board chair Greg Moore said. Both apps draw from web databases run by Metro and RCBC, allowing smart phone users to search for depots that accept various recyclables and

then display them on a map or by proximity to the user. Users can quickly find out the location of the nearest depot that will accept anything from dead batteries and unused paint to old furniture or electronics. But Moore said Metro’s app runs differently from RCBC’s. The Metro WeRecycle app displays all locations that accept material equally, sorted by location. But he said RCBC’s B.C. Recyclepedia app gives preference in its display results to RCBC’s industry steward-run Return-It depots ahead of other unaffiliated outlets that might be closer. Businesses can be listed in Metro’s app for free, Moore said, but may have to pay on RCBC’s. While the RCBC app is available for both Apple and Android devices, Metro’s is limited to iPhones running iOS 5. Metro plans to make it available for Android soon. jnagel@surreyleader.com

Surrey man pleads guilty to double murder

Two killed in Mission in 2008 Black Press ONE OF the men charged in a 2008 double murder in Mission entered a guilty plea Monday. Surreyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jack Douglas Woodruff, 53, appeared in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster and pleaded guilty to two charges of first-degree murder. Woodruff was sentenced to life in prison, with no chance of parole for 25 years. Lisa Dudley, 37, and Guthrie McKay, 33, were shot in their rural home in September 2008, which according to a statement of facts entered Monday in court, had housed a marijuana grow operation. Woodruff said he went to the house with the intention of shooting Dudley and McKay if necessary. According to the admitted facts, he went to the

on Sept. 22, 2008, four days after a 911 call was received that six shots had been fired in the area. McKay was pronounced dead on the scene. Dudley was in severe medical distress

and died en route to hospital. Mission RCMP Cpl. Mike White was given a written reprimand and docked one dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pay in March after an RCMP disciplinary hearing determined that he failed to properly investigate the shots-fired call. He left the scene after being there for 10 minutes and did not follow up the next day, the board of adjudication concluded. Following Woodruff being charged on May 13, 2011 with two counts of first-degree murder, Justin MacKinnon and Bruce Main were similarly charged on June 2 and Sept. 16, 2011, respectively. MacKinnon has been in custody since his arrest, while Main was released on bail with conditions, said RCMP. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with files from CTV and Vikki Hopes

Surrey man faces riot charges Life in jail for 2008 Surrey murder

71 accused now before the courts by Jeff nagel A 21-YEAR-OLD Surrey man is among four more people now charged for their involvement in the Stanley Cup riot in downtown Vancouver last June. James Ca Ha faces charges of participating in a riot and break-and-enter with intent to commit an offence.

Three other alleged rioters were also charged Wednesday. Jamil Sunderji, 25, of Richmond is charged with participating in a riot and mischief over $5,000. Also facing charges of mischief and participating in a riot are two 17-year-olds from North Vancouver and Richmond who cannot be named. Crown prosecutors have so far

PUBLIC NOTICE AFT

A WOMAN who

stabbed a man in the neck and killed him in an apartment building in Surrey in 2008 was sentenced to life in prison on Friday (March 16). Tammy Myran was found guilty of second degree murder last month in New Westminster Supreme Court in the death of Abdu Basir Ghulam Mohammad. While the conviction carries an automatic life sentence, she is not eligible to apply for parole for 10 years. Myran, who also used the first name Tanyia, was 23 years old in October 2008 when she was charged in what police called a “domestic-style homicide.” Officers arrived to an apartment near 110 Avenue and 136 Street and found Mohammad, who had been stabbed in the neck. He was pronounced dead at the scene. The victim would have turned 33 the following day. Though Myran had left the apartment, she was located nearby and arrested. IHIT (Integrated Homicide Investigation Team) spokesperson Jennifer Pound called Myran’s conviction in February “a very successful outcome to a very tragic and unnecessary death.” sreynolds@surreyleader.com

Faithful replica shrouded in mystery North Delta church hosts Shroud of Turin exhibit Black Press IT’S A CENTURIES-old linen cloth that bears the image of a crucified man. Was it Jesus of Nazareth, as millions believe, or is it a forgery? These questions come to North Delta as Immaculate Conception Church displays a replica of the Shroud of Turin from March 26-31. The “Man of the Shroud” exhibit will include a life-sized photograph, printed on linen, of the cloth relic, believed by many Christians as being the shroud in which the crucified body of Jesus Christ was wrapped for burial. Artifacts at the exhibit include a crown of thorns, a facsimile of the kind of whip which would have been used to torture Jesus, and a replica of what is believed to be the Holy Grail used at the Last Supper. Illustrated lectures will be given by Professor of Philosophy Dr. Phillip Wiebe and

Olympic legacy project provides housing 52-unit Timber Grove Apartments open in North Surrey by Evan Seal TIMBER GROVE Apartments, an Olym-

pic Legacy Housing Project, celebrated its official opening on Friday in Whalley. The three-storey building that once provided modular accommodation for athletes during the 2010 Winter Olympics offers 52 affordable rental apartments for people with disabilities who are at risk of becoming homeless in the Surrey area. Timber Grove Apartments, located at 13922 101 Ave., is a partnership project between the province, the City of Surrey, Fraser Health and Coast Mental Health. Coast Mental Health will manage and operate the facility as well as provide on-site services, including meal preparation, job skills training and

24/7 support. “Our tenants now have access to the housing, care and most importantly, the support they need to help regain their independence and rebuild their lives,” said Dr. Peter Gibson, board chair, Coast Mental Health. Resident Daniel Starr, 27, who moved into Timber Grove in October, is already feeling at home. “I just feel so much better,” said Starr. “I used to live with my twin brother, but sometimes family doesn’t always understand. Here there’s peer support and activities. It’s been very beneficial to me.” Lois Dixon, executive director of Mental Health and Substance Use Services for Fraser Health, said safe, affordable and supportive housing is one of the basic fundamental needs for good health.

“Without it, recovery and maintaining good mental health is not possible. Timber Grove has provided a new opportunity for our clients to live in self-contained apartment units and pursue greater independence while still receiving the on-site mentalhealth care and support they need to be successful.” The total capital cost of the project was approximately $13.2 million, with an annual operating budget of $488,000. The province contributed $10.5 million, with $2.3 million coming from the City of Surrey and $90,000 from Fraser Health. In addition to Surrey, temporary modular units from the Vancouver 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Games created 156 new affordable housing homes in Chetwynd, Chilliwack, Enderby, Saanich and Sechelt.

FUNDING FOR STUDENTS, NOT FOR WAGE HIKES. The BCTF is demanding a 15 per cent wage hike and other beneﬁts that would cost $2 billion and raise taxes for BC families. Virtually all other public sector unions have settled for no wage increases. It’s unacceptable that schools are disrupted and that students and their families are inconvenienced over an unreasonable salary demand in difﬁcult economic times. The union is making claims and demands that simply don’t add up.

BCTF CLAIMS AND DEMANDS

FACT

The union wants more paid time outside the classroom – sick leave for teachers on call, expanded bereavement and discretionary leave.

The government wants more time for teacher training and to ensure that Pro-D days really are for professional development.

The union says all teaching positions should be selected on the basis of seniority.

The government supports seniority but qualiﬁcations must also count so that math teachers teach math, and science teachers teach science.

The union says that teachers who perform poorly in evaluations will be dismissed – ‘one strike and you’re out’.

The government wants to support teacher improvement through a standardized evaluation process.

The union says that government refuses to negotiate.

There has been over a year of negotiations and 78 full bargaining sessions.

The union says that class size limits have been eliminated.

Class size limits will remain in place on all grades across BC.

The union says that BC has 700 fewer special needs teachers.

2100 new teaching assistants have been hired since 2001. And, with a new $165 million Learning Improvement Fund, we will hire more.

It’s time to focus on what matters most in education – BC’s students. That’s why we are focused on per-student funding which is at an all time high, not on wage increases. We all want to do more to make BC’s education system even better. It’s the driving force behind BC’s Education Plan that teachers, parents and students are helping to shape. Teachers care about their students. Parents care about their children’s future.

Port Mann repairs begin

Thursday, March 22, 2012 Surrey/North Delta Leader 19

HOT WATER TANK BLITZ Bradford White

Black Press THERE WILL BE no delays to Port

Mann Bridge construction while the contractor repairs a broken gantry, says a spokesperson from the Port Mann/Highway 1 Improvement Project. Max Logan said in a statement that damage to faulty machinery used to place concrete deck panels is minimal and can be repaired while the contractor works on other parts of the bridge. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The contractor expects the necessary repairs and replacement components will be in place to allow re-commissioning of the gantry in April,â&#x20AC;? the statement reads. An assessment found only minor repairs are needed, with some components requiring repair or replacement. While the repairs are completed,

the contractor will continue to work on the bridgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main span. Once the main span is connected and the gantry repaired, construction of the approach span will resume and the connection between the approach and the main span will be completed. The contractor will then continue the remaining work on the bridge in preparation for opening eight of 10 lanes in December 2012. Opening the new bridge will complete the first and largest phase of the project, which includes opening lanes on the new bridge, widening Highway 1 and rebuilding three interchanges from 160 Street in Surrey to the Cape Horn Interchange in Coquitlam. Construction work to complete the project, including the final two lanes of the bridge, will continue through 2013, with the existing bridge scheduled for decommissioning in 2014. newsroom@surreyleader.com

Road test options for elderly drivers Computerized testing not for everyone by Tom Fletcher DRIVERS more than

80 years old who fail a computerized test of their mental ability will now be offered a road test before they have to surrender their licences. Attorney General Shirley Bond announced the road test option Monday after complaints from people who lost their driving privileges based on a computer test called DriveABLE. Some elderly people with little computer experience found the touch-screen tests of cognitive ability to be an unfamiliar and unfair way to test them.

The DriveABLE test is administered on referral from doctors who detect cognitive impairment in patients that may affect their driving. Bond said those who failed the on-screen test in the past six months will be offered a free road test, using a test car with dual brakes. Those who failed more than six months ago have to see their doctor before being reassessed. NDP public safety critic Kathy Corrigan was surprised to hear that the DriveABLE program is now being â&#x20AC;&#x153;peer reviewed,â&#x20AC;? a step that she said the gov-

ernment should have taken before the service was contracted for B.C. Corrigan said the road test option is a step in the right direction, but details of that havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been made public yet. Bond also announced that a new DriveABLE assessment centre will be opened in Cranbrook, making 18 locations in B.C. A new mobile service is also in the works, so people in rural areas donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to travel as far to be tested. The DriveABLE test uses a terminal with a touch screen to measure mental abilities. tďŹ&#x201A;etcher@blackpress.ca

Tanning beds restricted to 18+

SALE

New provincial government regulations due to skin cancer concerns by Tom Fletcher THE B.C. GOVERNMENT is changing

regulations to restrict use of commercial tanning beds to people aged 18 and older, because of the skin cancer risk from prolonged use. Health Minister Mike de Jong announced the change Tuesday, after a task force reviewed the medical research and recommended the change. The regulation will allow those under 18 to use a tanning bed if a doctor prescribes it. The health ministry says using tanning beds before age 35 raises the risk

of developing melanoma by 75 per cent. The B.C. Cancer Agency estimates that 966 B.C. residents will be diagnosed this year with melanoma, the most deadly type of skin cancer, and 150 people will die from it. “Getting a tan might be a popular option among many young people, but research has shown that it can result in potentially deadly skin cancers later in life,” said Dr. Andy Coldman, a specialist at the BC Cancer Agency. The provincial regulation follows a local restriction by the Capital Regional District.

Former Surrey deputy manager heads south

There goes the power

3,600 BC hydro customers affected Black Press MORE THAN 3,600 Surrey homes and businesses regained power Tuesday afternoon after a large portion of the grid went dark around 1 p.m.

According to BC Hydro, the outages affected areas south of 65A Avenue, and north of the 32 Avenue diversion, and between 136 and 160 streets. While power

returned to some in the area by 2 p.m., most of the affected homes regained power by 4:30 p.m. BC Hydro did not release the cause of the outages.

How to trump moss more moss. It is in lawns everywhere this year, spreading vigorously and choking out those poor lawn grasses. In spite of all the tons of lime and moss control applied, it seems to get worse. The problem with moss is our lack of understanding about the way it grows in our lawns. Let’s start by looking at why moss grows. First of all, it thrives in areas of high rainfall, and it loves shady locations. Wet, poorly drained soil is a wonderful place for moss to become established, because the soil is usually acidic. In addition to these conditions, moss does very well in soil that has low fertility. Shaded, heavy, wet, acidic soil with low fertility - those are the ideal conditions for moss to grow and spread rapidly. To get rid of moss we must rectify these conditions, so let’s start with the heavy soil.

ADVERTISING FEATURE

Light, sandy soils are usually less prone to moss than heavy soils, where water drains away slowly. One of the first things we must do is improve the porosity and drainage of our soils. Short of plowing our lawns under for a re-do, aeration is the most sensible way to go. You can do this by using a three- or fiveprong hand aerator and pulling out cores of soil throughout your lawn. This is easier than you might think and goes quite quickly. For larger areas, a commercial aerator would be ideal, but be careful of the roto-tiller types which basically chew up the turf and loosen your teeth at the same time. How you get those cores of heavy soil out of your lawn is up to you, but once that is done, broadcast a 1/4-inch layer of coarse washed sand over the aerated areas to fill up those holes. Washed sand is usually cleaner with less weeds. This sharp sand will eat its

way down and, in time, help to greatly improve the drainage. You can aerate now, and repeat the process several times a year until you see an improvement in the drainage. This is one of the secrets of so many great golf courses. Once you have worked on the drainage, it is important to raise the pH levels of the soil, or in other words, make your soil less acidic. Lime will do that, however, at this time of year, not just any lime will do the job. There is a huge supply of cheap lime out there, but it’s not what is needed. It can take as long as 15 to 16 weeks for the less

expensive ground limestone to begin working. Four months after you apply it, your lawn soil becomes less acidic. Wouldn’t it make sense to use a faster lime? Prilled limes, meaning they are in an easy to apply granular form, are the way to go. Dolopril lime is one of the best limes available today. It’s granular for easy application, weighs less by about a half, has twice the coverage, works quickly and lasts a long time. Dolopril lime should be applied at 10 kilograms per 200 square meters or 2000 square feet. Incidentally, the only way to be sure you need lime is to have your soil tested to determine its pH level. There are pH testing kits available at garden centres, but after our wet winter and with the copious quantities of moss in our lawns, I am sure you will be safe applying it. Once you have increased the pH level, it is time to get rid of the moss. Ferrous ammonium sulphate is the best way of doing that. It usually comes in a 20 kilogram bag, which will cover approximately 2,000 square feet of lawn area. Moisten the moss first, apply the moss control dry and arrange to have two dry days afterward when the temperature remains above 50 degrees Fahrenheit (10C). Good luck on that one. Quite sincerely, though, that is what is required for successful moss control. Once you have been able to eliminate the moss, you must rake out all the old dead stuff and apply a nutrient to encourage the remaining grass to get growing and fill in those bare spots before weeds do. A slow-release, high nitrogen fertilizer will do the job nicely and will be soil-friendly. Your lawn will be in good shape as long as you can eradicate the moss everywhere – from your trees, roof and under your rhododendrons. Don’t forget: moss spreads by spores, so a thorough clean-up is important. All this sounds like a lot of work, but it is not really, especially if you lessen the problem each year by improving the drainage and maintaining more consistent levels of nutrients in your lawn.

Portrait Homes named top builder in Canada

Local builder wins AVID Award Portrait Homes has long had a reputation for building amazing homes and delivering great value. They were recently the recipients of multiple Georgie Awards from the Canadian Home Builders’ Association of British Columbia, including two Customer Choice awards. Now they are being honoured again with the Avid Diamond Award for the Best Customer Experience in Canada. “This is truly an outstanding achievement and honour for Portrait Homes to be given this award,” says Vice-President of Sales and Marketing Troy Steine. “It’s been made possible by the unwavering dedication and

commitment from each and every one of the Portrait Homes team.” The annual Avid Awards honour the best builders across Canada for providing great customer service, and base their awards on feedback from homeowners. This year, over 97 per cent of Portrait home buyers said they would recommend the company. Steine is extremely proud of this statistic. “Providing an outstanding customer experience is the strength that allows Portrait Homes to flourish in a competitive market and positions us as the builder of choice in today’s real estate market,” he says.

The bathrooms are luxurious, with thick granite countertops, polished chrome or satin nickel bath fixtures and hardware and mosaic ceramic tile surounds on the bath and shower. The high-quality laminate flooring featured throughout the main floor is durable and ready to take the pounding of any number of feet, while the thick carpeting on the upper floor is a cozy detail that you’ll love to sink your feet into in the morning. Another

thoughtful detail is the built-in wire closet shelving, so you’ll easily be able to unpack as soon as you get your keys. A wide range of demographics have been interested in South Arm Gardens, Lawson says. Buyers will be able to take possession of their new homes in late April or early May. Homes at South Arm Gardens start at $499,000. For more information check out www.southarmgardens.com or call 604-998-4526.

‘A location that can’t be beat’

Richmond welcoming South Arm Gardens by Kerry Vital

The South Arm neighbourhood of Richmond is full of parks, shops and recreation, so it should be no surprise that the area is proud to welcome its newest development, South Arm Gardens. Built by the Kraftsmen Group of Companies and with 15 townhomes in the development, South Arm Gardens has the feel of an exclusive little community. “These are wonderful homes at a terrific value and in a location that can’t be beat,” says Sean Lawson, president of Steveston Real Estate. “South Arm Gardens offers an affordable way to get into the market in one of Richmond’s most sought-after neighbourhoods.” Seven different floorplans and three different designer-selected colour schemes give you plenty of options for finding the home that fits you best, and with the private fenced yards that are included with every home and beautiful landscaping, your outdoor space will make an amazing first impression. Inside, the nine-foot ceilings on the main level and oversized windows contribute to the overriding sense of space, no matter what room you’re in. Those oversized windows allow plenty of natural light to shine in, so your home will never feel dark even in the worst weather. Many of the homes are built with an open-plan layout that is perfect for entertaining, and the convenient kitchen islands in most

plans provide extra storage and counter space. Crown moulding throughout is one of the little details that make these homes so amazing, along with large 5 1/4-inch baseboards on the main floor and 4 1/4-inch baseboards on the upper floors. The kitchens showcase chefinspired touches, such as stainlesssteel appliances and custom-crafted cabinets complemented by natural granite countertops. Adjustable overhead halogen track lighting and ceiling pot lights ensure you have the perfect amount of light while prepping and cooking, and a hand-set ceramic tile backsplash lends a touch of sophisticated elegance to the room.

“

These are wonderful homes at a terriﬁc value,” says Sean Lawson, president of Steveston Real Estate.

Surrey Eagles lead BCHL playoff series 3-1

Capitals are on the ropes by Nick Greenizan THE SURREY Eagles are one win

away from the second round of the B.C. Hockey League playoffs, after a goal- and penalty-filled 7-5 win over the Cowichan Capitals Tuesday night on Vancouver Island. The Eagles lead the best-ofseven series 3-1, with Game 5 tonight (Thursday) at the South Surrey Arena. After sweeping the Capitals in two games on home ice over the weekend, they lost Game 3 Monday night, also in Duncan, by a 5-2 score. Jim Ingram Defenceman Devon Toews and forward Brett Mulcahy had the lone goals for Surrey in the loss. Cowichan dominated play, but the Eagles received a 34-save effort from netminder Andrew Hunt, and the Capitals didn’t put the game away until former Eagle Richard Vanderhoek scored an insurance goal with less than three minutes to play to make the score 4-3. Devin Gannon completed a hat trick with an empty net goal with 54 seconds remaining. “They worked hard. They deserved all their chances,’’ said Eagles head coach Matt Erhart after the loss. “The story of the night for us was turning the puck over too many times. And their top line was going. Cowichan deserved to win. Full marks to

“I really don’t know how to categorize the series so far, just weird.”

Sean McGovern and Michael Stenerson, on a penalty shot, each had a goal and an assist for Surrey, while Beau Orser – with his team-best third of the post-

season – Brandon Tanev, Demico Hannoun, and Brandon and Tyler Morley also scored. Toews added two assists Surrey connected twice on the power-play and once shorthanded, while the Caps scored three with the man-advantage, in a game that including a total of 19 power plays, one game mis-

conduct (Brandon Morley) for a check-from-behind, and four misconducts – two to each team – after the final horn sounded. “It was frustrating, disappointing and everything in between,’’ said Caps’ associate coach Jim Ingram after the game. “I know it’s 3-1 (series standing). We don’t feel like we’ve had a 3-1

drubbing by any means. I really don’t know how to categorize the series so far, just weird.’’ If the Eagles fail to clinch the series tonight, Game 6 will be played back in Cowichan Friday, and, if the series goes the distance, Game 7 will be staged at South Surrey Arena Saturday. - with ﬁles from Don Bodger, Rick Kupchuk

...with Dan Jukich In the standardbred racing world we call them “hobbyists””. That’s someone who has a fulltime day job but enjoys the thrill of owning, training and/or driving a horse as a sideline. Meet 36-year-old Don Ross, a financial advisor by day and a passionate horseman in his spare time. On the backstretch at Fraser Downs, Don and his ownership partner Nick McLean – who is also in the financial business – are referred to as “Banker” and “LIttle Banker”. Ross was introduced to the standardbred business by his father, Bob. Mr. Ross, Sr. had a couple of horses that were trained by the late George Brown and as a teenager Don enjoyed being around the action. The Ross family left the area for a short time but when Don returned in 2004 he took out his grooms licence and gradually progressed in acquiring both his trainers and drivers licence. Talk about patience. After 16 tries in the sulky, Don Ross finally experienced the thrill of his first career driving victory last Friday night with Im The Money. Ross had acquired the horse from Dave Hudon in mid-February and his first two starts were uneventful. After making some key equipment changes, Ross qualified the horse quite smartly for Race 6 at the Downs. Not only did Im The Money win by 2 ¾ lengths over Told Ya Fred, he also set a lifetime mark in pacing the mile in 1:55.1. A humble Ross was accepting congratulations from the backstretch community for the rest of the night. Later, when things settled down, he gave credit to some of the people who have helped him along the way: Hudon, Ann Cooper, Bill Davis and particularly Grant Hollingsworth, who would take Ross’s horse out for morning jogs when he was stuck at work in his financial surroundings. Action resumes at Fraser Downs Friday night at 7 o’clock and Sunday afternoon at 1:45. See you there. djukich@fraserdowns.com 17755 60th Avenue Surrey BC

by Rick Kupchuk FOUR PLAYERS who

played their minor hockey locally have been honoured by the B.C. Hockey League. The Junior A circuit announced it’s award winners earlier this month, with Alexander Petan of the Coquitlam Express named as the Most Valuable Player in the Coastal Conference, as well as a first-team all-star. Petan led the Express in regular-season scoring with 88 points, including 38 goals, in 55 games, good for a tie for fifth in the BCHL. In 100 games played over the previous two seasons, the product of North Delta minor Hockey netted 16 goals and added 24 assists. The 19-year-old will play in the NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) next season with the Michigan Tech Huskies in for next season in Houghton, Michigan. Andrew Hunt, 19, from Surrey Minor Hockey was a first-team choice for the Coastal Conference All-stars. A netminder with the Surrey Eagles, the former Surrey Minor Hockey Association member played in all but eight games, earning 30 victories. His goals against average of 2.92 was

third-best in the Coastal Conference, and his save percentage of .913 was fourth in the entire BCHL. Hunt will be tending goal in Potsdame, New York next season for the NCAA Clarkson Golden Knights. Also going to the NCAA next year is Reece Willcox, an 18-year-old defenceman for the Merritt Centennials and an Interior Conference first-team all-star. Willcox, also from Surrey Minor Hockey, was second among Centennials’ defencemen in scoring, with five goals and 18 assists in 52 games played during his second season in Merritt. He will suit up for the Cornell Big Red in Ithaca, New York. Jonah Imoo of Surrey shared the Wally Forslund Award for the best goaltending tandem. A member of the Powell River Kings, the 17-yearold from Semiahmoo Minor Hockey shared the netminding chores with Sean Maguire. The Kings had a league-best 2.05 goals against average. Imoo, a rookie at the Junior A level, played in eight games, earning seven wins, three by shutout. He allowed just seven goals, and his save percentage of .950 was tops in the BCHL.

THE CLOVERDALE Colts are a victory away from playing for BC Hockeyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bantam Tier One provincial championship in Kamloops. The Colts were winners in each of their first three games, finishing the second day of play tied for first place with the Burnaby Winter Club. Cloverdale and Burnaby played yesterday (Wednesday), with the Colts facing off against Prince George this morning. A win in either game would send Cloverdale into the championship game tonight. Also competing in BC Hockey championship tournaments this week are three teams from the Surrey Female Hockey Association. The Surrey Falcons are off to a 3-0-1 (won-lost-tied) start at the Pee Wee female tournament in Richmond. A 1-0 victory over Rossland/ Trail Wednesday morning left the Falcons unbeaten with two games to play in the round robin. After a 1-0 loss to Windermere Valley early on the first day of play Monday at the Midget female tournament in Salmon Arm, the Surrey Falcons topped the host team 3-1 that night.

St. Patrick helping St. Nick

A stretch for Reach Reach Child and Youth Development Society was recently presented with a donation of $50,000 from the Tsawwassen Boundary Bay Lions Club to help build a new 20,000-square-foot child development centre in the heart of Ladner. Reach serves more than 3,000 children with special needs in the community. The society’s goal is $4 million in fundraising for the construction project.

One student’s power

Members of Cloverdaleand White Rock-based Steel School of Irish Dance perform during Shamrocks & Holly at North Delta’s Kennedy’s Sports Pub on Sunday. The St. Patrick’s Daythemed event, dubbed ‘St. Patrick helping St. Nick,’ was a fundraiser for the Surrey Christmas Bureau.

WHEN SHE WAS IN GRADE 12, Krissi Bucholtz, a third-year

major in World Literature at Simon Fraser University was placed in charge of a fundraising project to build a primary school in Sierra Leone, West Africa. She spent over a month there as a student-teacher, gleaning valuable lessons about life, education and social justice. Determined to be part of social change and to improve the quality of education, Bucholtz has returned to Sierra Leone several times since. She heads back for another six months at the end of the year. “These experiences enabled me to be a more active student in the classroom in Canada, speaking out about issues that before I might have let pass by silently,” says Bucholtz. She was a driving force behind creating the non-profit organization called The People’s Foundation of Sierra Leone earlier this year, and has successfully helped raise over $25,000 to date. Among her contributions, she has assisted with village agricultural initiatives and micro-credit programs, started up new programs that empower and educate youth, trained volunteers, led workshops and fundraised for university scholarships. “Krissi is a committed and conscientious student leader, working assiduously to make classroom experience relevant to real world problems,” said Ken Seigneurie, director of SFU’s World Literature program.

he’s an instructor, a speaker, an active member of the community and now Lisa Monchalin is the first aboriginal woman in Canada to hold a PhD in criminology. The Kwantlen Polytechnic University instructor completed her PhD in criminology in December 2011 at the University of Ottawa. “We are very fortunate to have someone with Lisa’s background, education and commitment to the community as a faculty member,” said John McKendry, president of Kwantlen. “Lisa exemplifies everything Kwantlen stands for – innovation, inspiration and transformation.” “My PhD thesis was a case study done in Winnipeg on aboriginal crime prevention,” said Monchalin, who is of Algonquin, Huron and Metis descent. “Fuelled by various personal experiences and family history, I am very passionate about reducing crime affecting my people. The thesis provided practical solutions and concrete recommendations to reducing crime affecting aboriginal people in Canada.” Monchalin’s accomplishments extend beyond her education. Since joining the university in May 2011, Monchalin has been actively involved with Kwantlen’s Aboriginal Student Club, where her contributions have already been felt. She developed the Kwantlen Poly-U aboriginal Drum Circle where she leads students in traditional Aboriginal drumming and singing. An accomplished speaker, Monchalin participated in Kwantlen’s Aboriginal Gathering Place Lecture Series where she spoke on “The Continued Struggle, Sexualization and Subjugation of Native Women.” Kwantlen students can benefit from Monchalin’s contributions inside the classroom as well. Monchalin recently developed a specific aboriginal criminology course – Aboriginal Peoples and Justice – that she will teach in in the fall of 2012.

first, warm colours of spring emerging in the landscape, signs that the days are slowly lengthening. Bright yellow hazel catkins dangle over forest paths. Vibrant swathes of orange and crimson are revealed on closer view to be the fresh shoots of willow and red-osier dogwood. Copious male catkins on the alders are turning these seed-prolific trees a warm red. They attract wandering flocks of pine siskins and redpolls, small birds that dangle acrobatically from the thinnest of branches. Red-winged blackbirds are beginning to sing in the marshes, staking out

From Burma to Surrey Karen refugees share their stories in an exhibit at the Surrey Museum Black Press SURREY IS HOME to hundreds of Karen refugees from Burma. Meet six of them at the Surrey Museum, where their stories are part of a collaborative exhibit that offers a revealing glimpse into the lives the Karen people left behind and the new lives they’re building in Surrey. Community Treasures: Surrey’s Karen Community includes work by Candy Marvel, photographer Sheena Wilkie, video footage by Hans Christian Berger, and research and editing by Raymond Nakamura. The Karen people formed the largest ethnic minority in Burma, where the military forced them to flee for their lives into neighboring Thailand. The Karen people have been recognized as a distinctly vulnerable group by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. They have little hope for a safe return to their homeland in Burma, which is a military dictatorship called Myanmar. Many of the 140,000 Karen refugees lived in refugee camps for more than 20 years. Some 800 Karen people arrived in Canada in 2006, and about half settled in Surrey, where they’re adjusting to a new life. It’s a story told through pictures, video footage and a few, everyday belongings that the participants were able to bring with them. A wrinkled notebook is displayed to show neat lines of curlicue script filling two facing pages. These handwritten hymns are sung by a youth choir that has a Karen service twice a month. There’s also a bible used in a refugee camp by Paw Thi Blay Htoo Kee, whose father was a pastor. Most Karen are Christian. The six individuals shared their stories via video. In one interview, a woman describes learning to use light switches and cook meals without a fire – and gives voice to the frustrations of trying to find a family doctor in her new community. It’s on display to July. The Surrey Museum is located at 17710 56A Ave. It’s open Tuesdays to Fridays from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and is closed Sundays, Mondays and statutory holidays.

Darkness fosters the production of melatonin in animals, a hormone that affects sleep cycles, body temperature and immunity to disease.

Birds perceive light at red wavelengths, which pass

through the skull directly to special receptors in the brain. Like other animals, including humans, they also have light-sensitive cells in the eye’s retina which are not involved in vision. Our bodies are aware of the quality and quantity of light around us, without our conscious knowledge. Natural darkness has been entirely banished in some parts of our communities. Disrupted rhythms of light and dark can have a negative effect on wildlife, ecosystems and humans, with

constant overexposure to artificial light at night being particularly detrimental. To maintain your own healthy lifestyle, enjoy long walks in the spring sunshine and sleep in a dark room at night.

Tiller’s Folly Go The Road Band plans two concerts for their newest album by Alex Browne

or the title of their latest album, Surrey and White Rock-based acoustic roots giants Tiller’s Folly borrowed an evocative phrase from Frank Delaney’s epic novel, Ireland. Indeed, Go The Road – as a description of the lifestyle of the itinerant storyteller – fits the prolific band’s singer-songwriter Bruce Coughlan – and bandmates Laurence Knight (bass) and Nolan Murray (mandolin) to a T. For them, the road has travelled historic byways of B.C. and the Pacific Northwest; followed Celtic roots all the way back to Scotland; and is now, thanks to new manager Brian Smith of Georgia’s Leadership Artists, forging connections with classic American roots styles in heartland USA. That the road also has a few local loops is admirably illustrated by two special album release concerts, including live video recording, March 29 and 30 at 7:30 p.m. at White Rock’s Blue Frog Studios, 1328 Johnston Rd. Joining Tiller’s Folly for the events will be three artists of international repute who also happen to call the Peninsula home: keyboardist Doug Johnson (of Loverboy),

Tiller’s Folly, from left: Nolan Murray, Bruce Coughlan and Laurence Knight.

famed videographer Gene Greenwood and award-winning studio engineer Ron Cote. “Gene was picked up on a Stones tour right out of high school in North Van,” said band spokesperson Knight. “He’s worked with everybody in the music business. Even NASCAR wanted him to do a video for them, and he lives right in our neighbourhood. “And Ron, who did the DVD we shot live at the Cannery in Richmond – A Fine Kettle of Fish – recorded a couple of Stevie Ray and Chilliwack records.” Johnson is a long-time friend and musical associate, Knight said. “Doug and I are good buddies, and he was kind enough to ask me to join a jam band he has with Don Wells – we get together a couple of times a month, schedules permitting, to play jazz standards and Steely Dan tunes.” Johnson will fill in some of the piano and string sounds which, thanks to the multitalented producer Joby Baker of Victoria, are found on the album. “Doug is such an incredible musician – he was going to play on three songs and now he’s playing six,” said Knight, who added

one will be a special piano feature for the versatile Johnson. “We picked on a tune where Doug’s going to burn – an old Bob Wills piece called Panhandle Rag, on which Doug can get some of his chops out. We’re excited.” The aim of the two sessions at Blue Frog is to produce four or five “viral” videos and perhaps provide material for an eventual DVD release, Knight said. The Go The Road album itself has a series of guest artists that have been described as “a who’s who of acoustic music.” Foremost among them are John Cowan (currently of the Doobie Brothers) and Sam Bush, both of Newgrass Revival. “We caught up to the band late, but they became a favourite of Tiller’s Folly in the early 2000s,” Knight said. “To have Sam and John sin ing together for the first time in years, with Bruce, is a real thrill.” Other guest star turns on Go The Road include accordionist and Scottish Music Hall of Fame member Phil Cunningham, ace Dobro player Randy Kohrs, singer Cia Cherryholmes (of the Cherryholmes), frequent Bush and Cowan band members Scott Vestal and Jeff Autry, Josh Shilling (Mountain

Heart) and Ronnie McCoury (The Del McCoury Band, The Travellin’ McCourys). Knight said the band is amazed and flattered that so many artists insisted they wanted to participate in their music. But next week’s concerts will definitely shine the spotlight on the core and heart of Tiller’s Folly – the combined talents of Coughlan, Nolan and Knight, who have worked together for 12 years now. Knight acknowledges he has stepped up his game by playing upright bass on all of the tracks, at the urging of producer Baker. “He’s such a talented guy, he’s the reason I hung up my producer’s hat,’ he said. The album also benefits from Nolan’s “musicality,” Knight said, noting that he recently had a “Mando-caster” – essentially an electronic mandolin – handmade for him. “We thought he played fast before – now he’s just burning,” Knight said. “And Bruce constantly challenges us with new repertoire. He’s writing so many songs now and to such a high level, that the record really came together quickly.” Tickets ($35) are available from 604-5423055 or www.bluefrogstudios.ca arts@peacearchnews.com

Museum fundraiser flies high, aloha style by Jennifer Lang

as the cold, miserable March weather got you down? It sounds like what you need is a tropical interlude, Aloha-style. Fortunately, the folks at the Canadian Museum of Flight in Langley have got your back. They’re organizing a High Flyin’ Hawaiian Night, complete with a Luau, live auction and a grand prize draw, where you can win a trip for two to wonderful, warm Waikiki. The March 31 event is the major fundraiser of the year for the museum, located at 5333 216 St. “We wanted to get away from the formal gala format,” museum general manager Terry Brunner said. “So this year we decided to offer a Hawaiian vacation as a door prize and focus the event around a sun and surf theme.” Thanks to sponsors like Hawkair, Central Mountain Air, Harbour Air and Air North, there are some nifty items up for bid in the silent and live auction. How a fly-along with the formation team, Fraser Blues, or a flight in one of the museum’s vintage aircraft? A houseboat vacation – donated by the Rotary Club of Salmon Arm – and a Gulf Island retreat are also on the block. Among the boxes of merchandise arriving at the museum is one that’s sealed and marked “From the Headquarters of Hawaii Five-O.” “I don’t know what’s inside,” says Carla Deminchuk, one of the event’s organizers. “I’m almost scared to look.”

Canadian Museum of Flight receptionist Caitlin Ringland grins despite the rain as she plots her tropical escape. Several aircraft at the museum claim a Cloverdale connection. One, the Waco INF, a sport plane built in 1930, is the oldest flying airplane in Western Canada. Cloverdale residents may recognize it from the former B.C. Transportation Museum, which closed in 1992. Another Cloverdale legacy, a Douglas DC-3 known as the Spirit of the Skeena that was moved from Terrace, is now also at the Canadian Museum of Flight. It was built in 1940 and ended its flying career with Trans Provincial Airlines as a spare parts ship. The Canadian Flight Museum is run by a non-profit society that has a membership of about 400. There’s a core

group of volunteers who help rebuild and maintain the planes. “We have lots of retired airline mechanics who are really invaluable,” Deminchuk says. “They donate all their services and time.” Over the course of 20 years, volunteers were able to painstakingly rebuild the Waco Cabin – the museum’s flagship plane, donated by Dr. Pickup, B.C.’s flying doctor – after obtaining the original manufacturer blueprints from the Smithsonian Museum. At its core, the museum’s goal is to preserve Canada’s aviation past as a living legacy to visitors and volunteers alike. As one museum volunteer noted on a feedback form, “We never know who is going to walk through the door. They may be elderly, troubled or lonely. We give them something to do. They find a renewed sense of purpose,” the volunteer continued. “I recently had an epiphany: are we looking after the airplanes or are the airplanes really looking after us?” The event is the museum’s major fundraiser of the year. Proceeds will be used to maintain the museum’s aging hangar, which has a leaky roof but has undergone some recent improvements. Deminchuk says the hangar is so old, it’s thought to have been built for Canada’s first machinepowered flight a century ago – but others swear it’s older than that. Organizers are hoping to secure enough funding to pay for a new roof. The museum is open every day from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information, visit www.canadianflight.org

Each year, hundreds of artists submit their artwork in hope of being chosen for the NAP. Those who are selected have their artwork made into high-quality, limited edition prints and are given national exposure through DUC fundraising initiatives. The money raised through the NAP supports DUC’s on-the-ground wetland conservation work, scientific research and education programs. Delta’s Fred Buchwitz’s work will be among those featured. “The National Art Portfolio is a unique program that not only promotes our country’s outstanding nature artists, but the growing need to conserve the natural areas that inspire their work,” said Loraine Nyokong, DUC’s national director of fundraising and membership. “DUC is fortunate to have a long and illustrious relationship with talented Canadian artists, and we look forward to continuing this relationship in the future.” For more than 30 years, artists have donated their artwork to help DUC conserve vanishing wetland habitats. DUC’s event fundraising season is now underway and people are encouraged to attend events to view the 2012 NAP collection. Prints are also available through DUC’s Sealed Bid Auction program, and are displayed at over 3,000 locations across Canada.

FAMILY ANNOUNCEMENTS

MAWHINNEY (Nee Schmitt) Joanne Marie

January 1961 - March 13, 2012

Jo suddenly passed away with cancer. Survived by her husband Dave. Daughter, Megan. Dad, Peter and sister Debbie. She will be missed by all her family and friends. We would like to thank all the staff at S.M.H. By request there will be no services.

Paul enjoyed a very long life, including a joyous 90th Birthday party just days before passing, where he visited with many relations not seen for several years. He loved his family & friends, his incredible gardens, and his many farm animals. Paul was a veteran of WWII, where he served with his brother Dominic, for the Duke of Connaught’s regiment in Holland and Belgium, returning in 1945. After convalescence in military hospitals, he and Mary were married and started their life together in Vancouver in the late 1940’s. The family moved to Surrey in 1957, to the Sullivan area where they raised their family, and remained until about 1995. Paul was employed as a customs officer for many years, but retired early, at about age 45, to his real love, farming. On only two acres he was able to cultivate and produce sufficient bounty to easily meet the needs of his family. Paul was a committed volunteer to the local Cub and Boy Scouts, and was a dependable & involved member of the Sullivan community. He was an avid swimmer and skater, and in later years was an eager follower of the local sports teams. Memorial Service will be held at the Valley View Funeral Home, 14660 72nd Ave., Surrey on Sunday, March 25, 2012 at 2:00 pm. Reception will follow in the Valley View Reception Lounge.
