Team Canada named Four local athletes make 17-player roster for fastpitch championship by Rick Kupchuk SOFTBALL ATHLETES Jennifer Yee and Melanie Matthews have played at world championship tournaments and have participated in the Summer Olympic Games. But there’s always something special about the first few weeks of July. That’s when Yee, from North Delta, and Matthews, from Surrey, sport the red and white national team colours at one of the most anticipated fastpitch events in the world. This year, the pair will play for Team Canada at the 2011 Scotiabank Canadian Open Fastpitch International Championship at Softball City. “I always look forward to this tournament, playing near home is nice,” said Yee, a four-year veteran of the national team. “You always want to put on a show for friends and family, so there is some pressure. But it’s a good kind of pressure.” Five of the top six national teams in the world will be at Softball City in the women’s International category, including the world champion United States, runner-up Japan, bronze-medalist Canada, Venezuela and Australia. “It’s fun, I look forward to it every year,” said Matthews, a left-fielder, “We’re all used to it, and the fans have always been so supportive.”
“I always look forward to playing this tournament...” Jennifer Yee Twenty-six-year-old Yee, who plays second base, spent the week in Whitehorse at the Senior Women’s National Team Selection Camp, and was on the 17-player roster for the Canadian Open announced by Softball Canada yesterday (Wednesday) afternoon. Two other local players were also named to the team: catcher/infielder Paige Collings and pitcher Jocelyn Cater, both of South Delta. “I liked Whitehorse, the people are very friendly and we were very well received,” said Yee Wednesday morning, while on the highway for a day trip to Skagway, Alaska. “We had a lot of people out to watch the Red versus White scrimmages we had every night.” While Yee has spent the last week on the softball diamond, Matthews might take a game or two to get back into the swing of things.

The base of the BC Hydro tower that fell in the Fraser River is visible on the right, next to the leaning tower, on the south side of the waterway.
River erosion blamed for toppled BC Hydro tower Collapse a surprise, CEO says, despite work to brace its twin by Jeff Nagel THE HIGH-RUNNING Fraser River showed its force Monday when powerful
cu currents undercut and toppled a BC Hydro transmission tower, downing power lines and forcing the overnight shutdown of Highway 1 and the p L Lougheed Highway. Now area mayors want to know whether Hydro officials should have done more to prevent the emergency and whether there are more vulnerd ab able points in the transmission system that need to be upgraded. ““This is unfathomable,” Coquitlam Mayor Richard Stewart said. “I’m stil still left with lots of questions for BC Hydro as to how their line could have been undermined on the south side of the river for weeks and they had not reported it to the communities that would have been affected by this kind of calamity.” Hydro officials said Tuesday morning they had been aware for several days that river erosion had made some towers unstable and crews worked over the weekend to stabilize them. The situation deteriorated at 9 p.m. Monday night when one tower fell on the Surrey side, dropping its 230-kilovolt transmission cables into the Fraser, and putting a second tower at risk on the opposite bank.
BC Hydro CEO Dave Cobb says there was no advance warning a transmission tower was about to topple, even though engineers had already bolstered an adjacent tower that was leaning due to high-water erosion. Cobb said the adjacent 500-kilovolt line – which crosses the river immediately upstream – was the focus of concern because river water was undercutting the footings of its tower on the Surrey side. Hydro put supporting cables on the 500-kv tower a week earlier and deenergized the 500-kv line four days before the neighbouring 230-kv tower collapsed just metres away. “There was no indication that the 230-kv line was at heightened risk,” Cobb said in a statement. “We will bring in external hydrology experts and engineers to help us determine with certainty the cause. We will rigorously double-check similar transmission structures that may be affected by high water levels to ensure the long-term stability of the transmission towers.” Stewart said the fact Hydro knew for several days that there was potential for trouble with the towers in the area means municipalities should have been alerted so they could step up emergency preparations. See RIVER / Page 5
Timeline lays out sequence of events leading to emergency: BC Hydro discovers the tower supporting the 500-kilovolt (kV) transmission line (upstream line) on the south side of the Fraser River had been damaged, presumably by a barge. BC Hydro secures the tower, begins engineering assessments of the foundation and plans for repairs.
Construction is stalled. The 93 firms that bought commercial space pull out.
JUNE 16-30 JUNE 11 BC Hydro surveys tower foundation every two days to assess footings and begins weekly subsurface in-river stability checks.
JULY 2-4
JUNE 30 JUNE 27
As the Fraser River crests, there appears to have been sudden and unexpected erosion on the south side of the river, causing the 230-kV tower to fall into the Fraser River just before 9 p.m. The fall of the tower brings down additional transmission poles and infrastructure, causing tension and strain on attached lines.
CN Rail starts installing rip-rap (loose stone used to form a foundation for a breakwater or other structure) to rebuild the road; BC Hydro footings simultaneously get rip-rap.
JUNE 30
The area around the 500-kV tower begins showing signs of erosion. The road adjacent to the tower sloughs into the river causing the tower to drop four feet and shifts the tower top over 20 feet. The 500-kV line is de-energized as a precaution. A safety observer and surveyors are put on site 24/7 to monitor the situation. BC Hydro starts design work for more supporting cables.
There were no injuries and no safety risk posed by the wires as protection equipment was activated when the lines toppled and they were de-energized automatically. Authorities shut down Highway 1, the Lougheed Highway, the Port Mann Bridge and portions of United Boulevard in Coquitlam. Marine traffic was also affected and managed by the Canadian Coast Guard. BC Hydro officials worked throughout the night to ensure the stability of other towers and clear the fallen infrastructure.
JULY 5 JULY 4
BC Hydro conducts daily aerial surveys and underwater survey of neighbouring tower supporting adjacent 230-kV transmission line that crosses the river just downstream of the 500-kV line – and this tower’s foundation is deemed stable.
Highway 1 and Lougheed Highway re-opened to traffic. Crews successfully remove remaining cables that fell on the roads by 10 a.m.

River: 10th highest flow on record infrastructure on the north side. At 4 a.m., he said, engineers and Hydro decided to cut the lines over Highway 1, Lougheed Highway and United Boulevard to relieve pressure. It took an hour for a bucket truck to arrive from Aldergrove and it took another two hours to cut the lines and allow traffic to flow. Stewart called the situation “unbelievable” and said he has “lots of questions” – particularly why civic officials didn’t get earlier notification of the threat. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts said she also wants to ensure proper emergency protocols are followed and determine what other towers may be at risk. “It raises some serious concerns in terms of the stability of a number of those towers on the foreshore,” she said. “Any time you have a transmission tower fall into the Fraser River there’s got to be an assessment of the other towers in close proximity.” She credited BC Hydro for working quickly to restore power and reopen highways. SFU geographer Jeremy Venditti said this year’s Fraser flow has been the 10th highest on record but added it’s been an extremely unusual freshet. The river hit a high flow level of 10,000 cubic metres per second at Hope very early in the runoff season, he said, and it has kept running high for about five or six straight weeks due to the colder-than-normal spring. “This is really the only time we’ve seen that in the last 100 years or so,” Venditti said.
From page 3 Cobb said Hydro will review its emergency notification protocols to address local cities’ concerns. A review of the incident and repairs to the transmission line are to be complete within a month. Stewart said it’s lucky the two highways were reopened by 7:15 a.m. Tuesday and the region was not grappling with the gridlock that would have resulted from the shutdown of 14 lanes of traffic, including United Boulevard, which was also closed. But he said the biggest risk was the potential for thousands of pounds of overhead cable to fall on top of motorists on the freeway. “It was de-energized but it still would have killed people,” Stewart said. “We could have had hundreds of people killed. We could have had tremendous loss of property.” Electricity was cut off to more than 25,000 homes and businesses and caused lights to flicker or dim across a much wider area. The power line in the river was being dragged by the current, threatening to pull down the first tower on the Coquitlam side, where the stressed metal could be heard groaning Monday night. “It was singing loudly,” Stewart said, adding engineers were warning that if that tower went the stress on the next one would be tremendous, potentially causing a ripple effect that might have taken out more

ICBC HST won’t help B.C.’s overall economy actually in charge THE COMMUNITY Business and Professionals
I MUST APPLAUD both reporter Jeff Nagel and Ken Pugh, whom he interviewed. Mr. Pugh voiced a concern and a remedy that I had long thought valid when he was interviewed for the article, “ICBC may help curb home thefts.” Then unintended humour came into the article when ICBC spokesperson Kathy Taylor indicated that it would take provincial legislation to change the rule regarding having to carry your original insurance documents with you at all times. I don’t think that there are many in B.C. who don’t realize that it is not the provincial government but ICBC, hand in hand with TransLink, that actually runs the province. Whatever ICBC wants is generally rubber stamped into effect by the province. So ICBC, let’s get wallet-sized, proof-of-insurance cards issued for all your long-suffering, captive customers, so that they are not made to further suffer the trauma of having their homes broken into as well.
Association of Canada (CBPA) is opposed to the HST in B.C. for the following reasons: It is an unfair tax on consumers which shifts the tax burden from those who can pay it, namely wealthy corporations, to those who are already struggling to meet household budgets. While the wealthy corporations appreciate the new tax break, they don’t need this windfall because of previous tax breaks, which
already make B.C. one of the least-expensive places to do business in the industrialized world. Because of the recession, many families are struggling financially, and the added burden of the HST will have a negative impact not only on their own standard of living, but also on the overall economy, as they put away their wallets and spend less. At this time, after experiencing the HST for several months, along with the recession,
B.C. has seen an overall loss of jobs.

Canada’s legislated pride
WITH YET ANOTHER flag-waving
Canada Day behind us, replete with a veritable love-in of selfcongratulatory fervour, one cannot escape the uncomfortable notion that it’s a slippery slope from
patriotism to jingoism. All denials to the contrary, Canada’s official policy of legislated multiculturalism has in reality become a sad manifestation of the intense insecurity that
has developed with regard to our historical national identity. Thus, all measure of things have been named and renamed “Canada”, be it Canada Day or Canada Place or the Canada Line,

Vary car levy with mileage RE: THE PROPOSED car levy.
As a senior resident and taxpayer, I wholeheartedly agree with the article regarding TransLink’s shortfall in funding of the much-needed and long-awaited Evergreen Line. A car levy is one of several possible methods, but let’s be realistic, the majority of seniors require transportation and cannot afford an average $122 vehicle fee for only driving cars about 2,000 to 3,000 kilometres per year. This fee definitely must be varied based on mileage driven. The Evergreen Line should be, without a doubt, the top priority in TransLink’s future projects. Let’s get on with it. R. H. Runzer Port Moody

Large houses mean suites are here to stay I DON’T THINK that we will ever get rid of mon-
ster homes with multiple suites in them as long as the city allows houses to be built as large as they are today. What the city needs to do is tax these homes for what they are – apartment buildings, then pass the info on to Revenue Canada so that they can get taxes from these people as well. Our schools are overcrowded and wait times at ERs are long. Maybe with new revenue we can rectify some of these problems. Also, no more street parking. All residents must park on their property.
And in Delta the municipality has “sweetened the pot” by offering suite owners a $300 reduction in their secondary suite utility fee when they legalize. Delta is also waiving the permit fee to the end of this year. What the heck? We just paid our utility bill and we have had a legalized suite since moving here in 2001. Where is our reduction? And why is Delta rewarding such bad behaviour? This is a slap in the face to all homeowners who respect the law and already pay for their legalized suites. It’s time to get tough with these law-breakers. Lyn-Nell Lousley, Surrey

lest we might forget who we are or where we are or what we are. Our constant and often smugly superior references to “Canadian values” have become yet another anxiously contrived and carefully “engineered” expression of our cultural angst. The reason why other countries do not engage in the jingoism of referring to their national days as “America Day” or “France Day” or “Germany Day” or “Holland Day”, etc. is that they are secure in the knowledge as to who they are and what they are and where they are. National days celebrate historical achievement. The French people gave birth to their nation on July 14, 1789, and celebrate it as Bastille Day. Americans gave birth to their nation on July 4, 1776, and celebrate it as Independence Day. Canada began its journey to self-government on July 1, 1867, as the federal Dominion of Canada with the confederation of the new Canadian provinces of Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia... so let’s celebrate Canada’s birth as Confederation Day or, better even, return to our historical beginning and re-name it back to Dominion Day.
Get tough on law-breakers
Unfair to families RE: “SURREY’S got a suite scam” (Leader letters,
RE: “59 OWNERS have applied for permits” (The
Leader, June 30). Am I reading this right? Of the 20,000 suites, only 59 have applied for permits?
June 28). My son, his wife and two small children and myself bought a house five years ago because it had a legal suite. They live upstairs and I,
downstairs. This year we were charged $280 for the suite. I phoned the bylaw office and told them that it is only the owners, us five, who live here and I felt there should be an exemption for people where the owners are the only ones living in the dwelling. I was told if we took out the appliances we wouldn’t be charged. They suggested I contact the mayor and council which I did and explained the same to the mayor. The reply I got was that that is the bylaw and from time to time they are reviewed. We are only five persons and I can’t understand how whether or not we have a stove puts any additional work or burden on the city. Maybe if other people in the same situation as us wrote to the city and explained their situation also, they could come and check if they want to and we could be exempt. So many illegal rented-out suites in Surrey go unchecked and yet people like us get charged, I feel unfairly. V. Davis

AND THAT the Agreement as approved by Council is part of a strategy to maximize the financial returns through development and provide an annual revenue stream to the City from the City’s wholly owned Development Corporation. The form of assistance is the transfer of beneficial interest in lands more particularly described below (the “Lands”), valued at $34,744,087, from the City to the Development Corporation in exchange for preferred shares of the Development Corporation.

The killing was never carried out. Jouhal pleaded guilty last spring and was sentenced to seven years in prison. Buttar, who was considered one of the most threatening men in Vancouver in the 1990s, has been confined to a wheelchair since he was shot twice in the head 10 years ago. In the documentary “A Warrior’s Religion,” he told Surrey filmmaker Mani Amar he remembers a sound like a “wrestling bell,” then waking up in darkness. His criminal associates met similar fates. “My whole crew vanished. In two years my whole crew (was) gone,” Buttar said. Buttar’s mother once told a police officer that her three sons were “warriors.” This was before one was murdered and one was crippled as a result of their gangland involvement.

Buses get bigger, better home in Surrey Upgraded Newton centre sets stage for transit service expansion by Jeff Nagel TRANSLINK HAS
unveiled a modernized and expanded transit centre in Surrey that will handle many more buses as service South of the Fraser expands. The upgraded centre on 132 Street near 76 Avenue will be able to house up to 300 buses, including as many as 50 big articulated buses that use hybrid electric engines, as well as compressed natural gas buses. That’s a big increase from the old capacity of 225 buses, allowing the current Surrey-based fleet of 187 vehicles to expand by as much as 60 per cent as needed.
“We should be good for at least 50 years,� TransLink Chief Operating Officer Doug Kelsey said. The expansion is important, he said, because of the projected growth in population and demand in the Surrey area. “We’ll have the capacity to handle even more transit services here that we anticipate will be coming to the South of Fraser area in the years ahead,� Kelsey said. The $12.7-million project was built with contributions of $2.5 million from the province and $2.1 million from the federal government and officially opened Monday (July 4).
The new centre is considered much greener than its predecessor. The bus washing system has a recycling system that cuts water consumption by 80 per cent, while advanced wastewater treatment removes oil and grease. Bus washing is also faster, getting coaches back in service sooner. Fuel is now stored above ground, rather than in underground tanks, reducing the risk
of soil contamination. The site houses a vast area for parking buses and a large complex of garage bays for maintenance. The 650 employees who work there don’t just maintain, fuel and wash buses. They also run the Transit Communication Centre, which manages the day-to-day operations of TransLink’s entire fleet across Metro Vancouver. jnagel@surreyleader.com
Recovery, housing site under one roof Mental health, addiction issues and homelessness targets of new centre by Jeff Nagel A NEW CENTRE to help individuals at risk of homelessness with mental health and addiction issues is now under construction in Surrey. Quibble Creek Health and Phoenix Transition Housing Centre is a partnership between the province, the City of Surrey and Fraser Health Authority that will contain 52 supportive housing units and 15 short-term transitional recovery beds. The four-storey building, going up at 13670 94A Ave., will also include Fraser Health’s Recovery and Assessment Centre, with 25 beds for men and women requiring 24-hour recovery and assessment services, and a primary care, substance use and mental health clinic. The Recovery and Assessment Centre will be a safe, sheltered environment to assist individuals recovering from acute intoxication. Clients at the primary care, substance use and mental health clinic will receive care and treatment for medical, substance use and mental health issues. “We have been shifting how we reach out and support those who are homeless and affected by mental health and substance use issues, offering services in settings that best meet their needs,� said Lois Dixon, Fraser Health’s executive director of mental health and substance use. The city provided the land and waived fees for development, while the province provided a $15-million grant plus $620,000 in operating funds for the housing component. Phoenix Drug and Alcohol Recovery and Education Society will operate the centre, with funding from Fraser Health. The new centre is to be finished by spring of 2012.

had advance warning from a senior official several weeks ago that cuts to the number of sheriffs guarding courthouses could spark trouble in the justice system. In a May 31 letter to B.C.’s chief justices, copied to the deputy attorney general, Assistant Deputy Minister Rob Wood noted full-time staff levels in the court services branch had already been cut nine per cent since 2008-09. “These fiscal changes have made it progressively more difficult to maintain operational service levels in both court security and court administration,” Wood said. Deeper cuts took effect at the beginning of June and Wood’s letter set out minimum service levels for court registries and sheriffs, including a system of roving sheriffs to spread staff further. Wood’s letter indicated the number of court clerks has also been cut and the ministry would respond by reassigning court registry staff to act as clerks as needed.
He cautioned those levels would not be sustainable for long. Wood also noted it would be up to judges to gauge the security risk and decide if they can operate without a dedicated sheriff using the rover system. “The safety of all court participants is of paramount concern,” he said. “We will do everything we can, in consultation with the judiciary, to ensure the most important matters go forward and that the safety and security of the courts and court users is maintained.” The elimination of the equivalent of 34 full-time deputy sheriffs caused delays in several trials last month when some judges refused to let their trials proceed without a sheriff present. By late June, Attorney General Barry Penner – after hearing directly from judges about their security concerns – pledged to reverse the cuts to sheriffs’ hours. But the cut hours have not been permanently restored and are only being scheduled a week at a time so far, said Dean Purdy, spokesman for the union representing sheriffs.
“We’re concerned that they’re so keyed into the budgetary side of things they’re going to let the court system slide rather than truly fund the system,” he said. Purdy said two of the most senior managers in the system are currently filling in for sheriffs in Victoria because of the lack of deputy sheriffs. “You can’t do justice on the cheap,” he said, adding the province needs to hire more sheriffs to reverse some of the loss of more than 100 positions in recent years. The NDP lashed the province for allowing “chaos” in the courts to continue and failing to find a permanent solution. “It appears that when making this announcement, the Liberals were primarily interested in temporary damage control, not returning security to our courts so they can function again,” NDP Attorney General critic Leonard Krog said. Penner said he doesn’t want the shortage of sheriffs to result in trial delays and added his ministry is working to find more money to support staffing levels on an ongoing basis. jnagel@surreyleader.com

by Sheila Reynolds HE WAS A familiar and
friendly feathered face for visitors to a Surrey pet store. But on Tuesday at around noon, someone took Dusky, a seven-year resident of Petland on Fraser Highway near 194 Street on the Surrey/Langley border. The bird, named after his breed, the dusky-headed Dusky the dusky-headed conure conure, was not for sale and went missing earlier this week. had become part of the family – Dusky is mostly green, with human and animal – which also a grey head and white around includes longtime companions Samson the macaw and Stella, an his eyes. He’s not more than 12 inches from head to tail. African grey parrot.
Samson has also been stolen in the past, but has always been returned. Dusky’s disappearance has everyone extremely worried, said the store’s co-owner Greg Draper. “We’re all pretty sick about it,� he said. “You never know who takes them ... if they’re going to take care of them properly.� Anyone with information about Dusky’s disappearance or whereabouts is asked to call Draper at 604-530-7878. A reward is being offered for the bird’s safe return.

Man in van stalks teen 14-year-old girl followed in North Delta by Sheila Reynolds A 14-YEAR-OLD girl was confronted by a man in a
van on Monday. Delta Police say the teen was walking east on 84 Avenue near 114 Street at about 12:45 p.m. when she passed a van parked by the side of the road. After the girl passed, the driver twice moved the vehicle forward a short distance and stopped. The driver then got out of the van and ran toward the teen. The girl yelled and kicked toward the man, and eventually, he turned back to his vehicle, driving away westbound on 84 Avenue. The girl was not physically harmed. The suspect is described as a Caucasian male between 35 and 45 years old, about 6’, with a thin to medium build and short, light brown hair. He wore a dark grey T-shirt and black pants with paint stains. The van is silver with yellow lettering on the side. It had a ladder on the roof, tinted windows and possibly a graphic of a blue ant on the side. Anyone with information about the incident can call the Delta Police 604-946-4411.
Death may be homicide Delta Police believe the incident is isolated Black Press DELTA POLICE are
investigating a possible homicide in North Delta. On July 3 at 12:30 a.m., police responded to a call for assistance from the BC Ambulance Service at 11540 80 Ave. Upon their arrival, officers found a man unconscious and unresponsive. He was later pro-
nounced dead at the scene. The cause of death has not been determined, however, investigators are treating it as a homicide and Delta Police believe it is an isolated incident. An autopsy was scheduled earlier this week to determine the cause of death. The man’s identity has not been released. newsroom@Surreyleader.com

fate of the harmonized sales tax (HST). Acting Chief Electoral Officer Craig James has extended the HST referendum deadline to compensate for mail delivery delays stemming from the Canada Post labour dispute. The delay had been requested by NDP leader Adrian Dix, who called the extension a victory for the democratic process. Ballots that had been due back July 22 must now be returned to Elections BC by 4:30 p.m. Friday, Aug. 5. Eligible voters who are not on the voters list will now get until July 22 to request a voting package. The ballot packages came with a postage-paid envelope, but voters can also choose to directly return their ballots to a Service BC or Elections BC collection centre by Aug. 5. (Locations listed at www. elections.bc.ca) Elections BC says voters should receive their voting packages by today (July 7). Results of the referendum may not be known until September. Voters are asked to vote “Yes” if they want to eliminate the 12-per-cent HST and return to the combination of the five per cent GST and seven per cent provincial sales tax. They’re to vote “No” if they want to keep the HST. The province, in an effort to rally more support to retain the tax, has pledged to lower the rate to 10 per cent by 2014. It will also send out additional one-time rebate cheques for low-income seniors and families with children.

has turned down a challenge from NDP leader Adrian Dix to a oneon-one debate on the harmonized sales tax. Dix accused Clark of so far avoiding debate on the issue and proposed a debate on CKNW’s Bill Good Show. “When she had a chance to debate the HST in the legislature she shut proceedings down just before she was due to speak,” Dix said. “I’m inviting her to do the right thing and participate in this forum.” “We won’t be playing those games,” Clark responded in a statement issued by her staff,
adding voters need to make the HST decision on the merits of the policy, not a debate of leaders. Dix accused her of hiding from a debate and said his offer stands. “Premier Clark’s allies in the Smart Tax Alliance are running ads that say the ‘PST/GST gang is hiding from an honest debate,’” Dix said. “Now we know who’s really hiding.” Finance Minister Kevin Falcon, meanwhile, tried to highlight two other leaders – the Greens’ Jane Sterk and BC Conservatives’ John Cummins – for their support of the ‘No’ side to keep the HST in place. jnagel@surreyleader.com

Fingerprint scans ease criminal checks Surrey RCMP is one of the first detachments in B.C. with digital technology Black Press A NEW DIGITAL fingerprint scanner
with the RCMP will greatly reduce the amount of time to receive a criminal record check, often required for volunteer work. In April, Surrey RCMP became one of the first detachments in the province with the new scanner. The Surrey RCMP processes more than 25,000 criminal record checks annually, with about one-third of those considered the “vulnerable sector” checks for people wanting to do work in health care, social work,
day care, sports coaching or taxi driving. “With the new system, fingerprints can now be analyzed in around eight to 10 days, whereas it had previously taken months,” said Tim Matheson, Surrey RCMP client services manager. “This technology enables us to provide a much faster turnaround time to the community, and will be a welcome service improvement, particularly for those seeking employment or volunteering opportunities.” The new live scan electronic fingerprint machines also help to

grad Pontus Agren received his bachelor of arts honours degree in criminology last month, his mind was on the fate of RestArt (restorative art), the subject of his thesis. Once arrested and charged for illegal graffiti writing, Agren hopes his thesis on the program, which he credits with changing many lives, will help ensure its survival. A similar restorative justice program steered Agren clear of pursuing a path to illegal graffiti convictions in 1998. An idea first conceived by graduate students and professors at SFU’s school of criminology in 1994, RestArt is now threatened by funding cuts in many Lower Mainland municipalities. Using restorative justice circles, RestArt seeks to rehabilitate illegal graffiti taggers in Metro Vancouver rather than sending them to jail. Held over four days, workshops are based on techniques rooted in Canadian and aboriginal communities’ handling of offenders more then 100 years ago.
Simon Fraser University grad Pontus Agren wrote a thesis on RestArt, a program that rehabilitates graffiti taggers. PHOTO COURTESY SFU
The program helps taggers understand the impact of their actions by building empathy for their victims while at the same time allowing victims to see the taggers as troubled youth rather than hardened criminals. RestArt has been shown to save municipalities hundreds of thousands of dollars in future graffiti clean-up costs by engaging the offenders in a voluntary process and helps them understand the harm they have caused and by channeling their creativity towards sanctioned mural projects throughout the Lower Mainland. In his study, Agren, a Surrey resident and the City of Surrey’s
first anti-graffiti coordinator, found that 70 per cent of offenders hadn’t reoffended and that the program had made a positive impact on their lives. “When funding goes into graffiti abatement,” notes Agren, “graffiti decreases. However, when graffiti does disappear, funding tends to cease and the offending tags come back. Policymakers should understand that anti-graffiti workers build relationships with graffiti writers. Where funding is removed those relationships are destroyed and then, if and when the program is resurrected, anti-graffiti workers are back to square one.” photo@surreyleader.com

‘Birds lose’ with upgrade CONGRATULATE to fish habitat in park Princess Margaret Secondary would like to
the following scholarship and AWARD WINNERS from the Grad Class of 2011:
Project at Colony Farm to offset Highway 1 impacts by Jeff Nagel LOCAL environmentalists are
criticizing the province’s $3-million plan to upgrade fish habitat in Metro Vancouver’s Colony Farm Regional Park to compensate for damage from building the new Port Mann Bridge and widening Highway 1. Elaine Golds of the Burke Mountain Naturalists says Metro’s board shouldn’t have agreed May 27 to the construction of 80 hectares fish channels and ponds in the park’s Wilson Farm area. “It’s very important bird habitat,” she said. “It’s more rare in the Lower Mainland than salmon streams.” Golds said the park’s old field habitat supports short-eared owls, barred owls and great blue herons in winter. Her group wanted the provincial government’s Transportation Investment Corp., which oversees the Highway 1 project, to find other sites where fish habitat can be improved without it coming at the cost of wildlife habitat.
“Under this plan, the birds lose and the fish win,” she said. “It shouldn’t be one versus the other. It pits the salmon supporters against the birders, which is not a good move in a public park.” Colony Farm’s bird habitat once got upgrade money from federal authorities in compensation for the construction of Vancouver International Airport’s third runway. “They’ve forgotten about that and now they’re piling on fish compensation work,” Golds said. Port Coquitlam Mayor Greg Moore in April persuaded the board to send staff back to press Victoria to look for better sites, adding Colony Farm may have been picked because it’s the easiest and cheapest option. Metro officials say they took up the concerns with the TI Corp. but were told no other alternatives were possible. The project needed quick approval in order for work to start this August when impacts to fish would be minimal. Golds had suggested instead
remediating an old dump site by the Coquitlam River and converting it to fish habitat. But that was unworkable, according to a Metro report. “DFO considers clean up of a contaminated site to be a highrisk activity that is likely to result in the release of contaminants to the aquatic environment,” it said. Other sites along the Coquitlam River either had low value for salmon enhancement, a high risk for failure or didn’t meet DFO requirements for suitable compensation, the report said. The TI Corp was required by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans to provide 174,000 square metres of in-stream habitat and 441,000 square metres of streamside habitat to ensure no net loss from the project. The work shouldn’t significantly alter public access to the park. The former Wilson Farm was once an important wetland until it was diked for agriculture a century ago.

taxpayer-funded playground for civic politicians to spend wildly, rake in extra pay and travel the globe. So says Coquitlam Coun. Lou Sekora, who argues it’s time the mayors and councillors who serve as directors on the Metro board were more directly elected by local voters. Metro directors are currently selected by each city council. Their seat on the regional stage brings a higher profile, influence on key issues, travel to international conferences and an extra paycheque typically worth around $15,000 a year. But Coquitlam council will debate next month whether to leave the choice up to local voters, who would fill out a second ballot during civic elections on their Metro preferences. The two elected council members who get the most votes on the Metro ballot would go to the regional board, Sekora said, with no chance for the mayor or majority on council to control the selection.
Metro board members oversee “It’s wrong,” Sekora said of the the regional district’s $600-million current method of appointments. budget, 84 per cent of which goes “They’re not accountable to the for water, sewage and garbage taxpayers whatsoever.” services for the region.

TransLink: Board is Company is also not directly elected Coming SALE! From page 18 That could be a source of conflict and dysfunction between the region and local cities, Hunt said. “To contemplate direct elections is to restructure the whole concept of regional governance, to make it a truly separate level of governance totally independent of municipalities,” added Belcarra Mayor Ralph Drew. “That would be a mistake. We have a good system. It’s worked well, notwithstanding some of its warts and wrinkles.” Gordon Price, a former Vancouver councillor and Metro director who is now director of SFU’s City Program, also urged caution. “Be careful what you wish for,” he said. Metro’s council-appointed directors are accountable in the sense their council can rescind their representative’s appointment midway through the term if they’re unhappy with the performance. But a board populated by directors empowered by voters with no restraint from their home councils could turn into a monster. It might seem more democratic,
Price said, but it creates another level of government with much more potential for finger-pointing. “It will eventually desire to expand its powers and it will come in conflict with the local level,” he said. Reformers could instead try to amalgamate all 21 Metro’s municipalities into a single super city. Price predicts most voters and politicians wouldn’t want that, fearing a loss of local autonomy. The experience in Toronto and Montreal suggest the supposed benefits of a Metro amalgamation into a super city wouldn’t be worth the trauma, he said. Even a limited amalgamation – say of the North Shore cities – might make sense geographically but would be “a drag out fight.” Price believes the federation of cities method here has actually worked well even if it seems less democratic than a directly elected super city model. “While you lose something in accountability, you gain something in the consensus building, sharing and knowledge that mayors get by sitting around the same regional table,” he said. “It may not be the case it’s so broken it needs to be fixed.”
Democratically challenged Metro Vancouver isn’t the only big regional governing body run by a board that’s not directly elected. TransLink’s board, overhauled by the provincial government in 2007, consists of appointed professionals who control spending of nearly $1.3 billion a year. The regional mayors’ council can only approve or reject proposed tax or levy increases to fund expansion. The mayors also have final say on which directors are appointed to TransLink’s board, but only after candidates are vetted and short-listed by a screening panel controlled by business-oriented groups like the Greater Vancouver Gateway Council and Vancouver Board of Trade. The Fraser Health board, appointed directly by the province, oversees a budget of $2.5 billion. There is one directly elected representative on Metro’s board. Maria Harris is the electoral area A director, serving unincorporated areas with no municipal council including Barnston Island, the UBC lands and parts of Howe Sound and Indian Arm.

Provincial award for Surrey Minor Youth hockey group named B.C. Hockey’s Association of the Year by Rick Kupchuk
T
hey do it for the players, not for recognition. Still, Surrey Minor Hockey Association president Jamie Allen admits winning a major award at BC Hockey’s annual general meeting in Penticton June 25 is a well-deserved honour for the group’s hundreds of volunteers. “Our group up there was very surprised,” said Allen. “But it’s nice for volunteers to be recognized. They put in a lot of hard work. Eighty per cent of our association is volunteers, the managers, team moms, coaches, the 50/50 people, the timekeepers and scorekeepers.” Surrey Minor Hockey was named the Association of the Year at a season-
ending awards banquet, the second such honour in the past 20 years. “The groundwork was laid out by past presidents and executives, with the policies they put in place. And we hold people to a high level of community support. That shows good character to the kids.” In addition to playing hockey, the association’s teams also get involved in the community. The Pee Wee C Canucks team collected 750 pounds of food, which was donated to the Surrey Food Bank. And the Bantam Tier 1 team voluntered at the food
bank, sorting and packing donations. On the ice, Surrey Minor Hockey offers a little extra to all involved in the game. Weekly clinics for onice officials, goaltenders and coaches were cited as a few of the programs Surrey Minor Hockey has implemented to develop all members of the association, as were power skating lessons for house league players and a Learning the Game online tutorial on the association’s website. “We don’t develop kids to win in the Atom (9-10) Pee Wee (11-12) age

groups,” said Allen. “We teach them skating and basic skills, and we do try to be competitive. “But we try to win at Bantam (13-14) and Midget (15-17).” The strategy seems to be working. Midget teams from Surrey won BC Hockey championships in the Tier 1 and Tier 4 categories, while placing third in Tier 3. Repeating that success will be difficult, as roughly 13 players from the Surrey Minor Hockey Association are moving on to the Junior level next season. “We like to move the kids along,” said Allen. “At the same time, we also lose quality kids. “But we’re fulfilling the dreams of kids, and that’s pretty cool.”

gearing up for the 2011 Tour de Delta, which this year is introducing a new race in North Delta in hopes of attracting more bikeenthused spectators. The three-day, threerace annual cycling competition runs July 8-10 and, for the first time, the former MK Prologue in North Delta has been changed to the MK Delta Criterium. The Friday evening race features a 1.2-kilometre loop around the heart of North Delta, giving onlookers the chance to see the athletes more frequently as they pass by 40 to 50 times. The route includes a fast downhill section going into an open lefthand turn where riders can hit speeds in excess of 70 kilometres per hour. “We wanted to continue to enhance the entertainment of the event for the community,” said race director Mark Ernsting. “The riders didn’t mind either way.” Friday’s event will also feature familyoriented activities and entertainment such as Dhol Nation drummers, arts and crafts, and a mountain bike stunt show. Day Two of the races takes place Saturday evening in Ladner with the Brenco Criterium. Thousands of people are expected to watch riders handle the tight corners of Ladner Village. “Historically, our biggest night is on the Ladner course with approximately 5,000 spectators that come out,” Ernsting said. “We hope that, in short order, we

Road race: Final event of Tour de Delta in Tsawwassen Rebels From page 29 can achieve that as well on the North Delta course.” The three-day event culminates Sunday with a sprint to the Tsawwassen finish line after the
endurance-testing White Spot Road Race. Ernsting expects 200 male and female riders to compete this year for more than $25,000 in prize purses. It might just be the most experienced group of riders
to date. “The field is going to be really strong as far as the depth of pros that are going to be in attendance,” Ernsting said. He said cycling enthusiasts planning to cheer on the
two-wheeled competitors can expect to feel a real “buzz” on the streets. And organizers continue to build an entertaining show around each day’s race as the “great tradition” of the Tour de Delta enters its 11th year.
The Delta event kicks off BC Superweek July 8 to 17, which also includes the inaugural UBC Grand Prix, the return of the Giro di Burnaby and the 32nd annual Tour de White Rock. reporter@southdeltaleader.com

winless streak has ended. But it’s too late for the Surrey Rebels to sneak into the West Coast Junior Lacrosse League playoffs. After an 18-2 drubbing on the road Sunday night against the Coquitlam Adanacs, an outstanding effort Monday night in Cloverdale led to a 12-8 Rebels victory over the Delta Islanders. With one game remaining in the regular season, Surrey has a 5-12-2 record (won-lost-tied), but is three points back of the eighth place Port Coquitlam Saints. Jeff Geyer was solid in the Rebels goal, making 62 saves as Delta held a 70-49 shots on goal advantage, and chipped in offensively with four assists. Eamon Butler and Cody Gough led Surrey scorers with four goals each. Brad Olson with two goals, Max Richards and Conor Campbell were the other goal scorers. Olson had a six-point night, adding four assists. The teams were tied 4-4 after 20 minutes, then Surrey erased a one-goal Islanders lead to go up 10-7 after two periods. The Rebels close out the regular season tomorrow (Friday) at 8 p.m. in the Cloverdale Arena against Port Coquitlam.

Good wishes from schools CINDRICH ELEMENTARY and Semiahmoo Trail Elementary
Schools have collectively raised $3,431 for the Kids Change Star Bank Program, a student fundraising initiative for the Make-A-Wish Foundation of BC & Yukon. Aimed strictly at elementary school-aged kids to help teach them about the importance of helping others in their community, students have been collecting coins in their banks since the beginning of the school year, proving that even kids as young as kindergarten age can do something positive for another child in need. The Make-A-Wish Foundation grants wishes to kids three to 17 who are battling a life-threatening medical condition. The program started last year and raised more than $17,000 in its first year. This is the second year of participation for both Surrey schools. HOW TO SUBMIT

Cadet Catherine Chernoff paddles the Manigotagan River in Manitoba.
S
urrey’s Catherine Chernoff recently spent two weeks near Churchill, Manitoba in a challenging expedition that included trekking, portaging and canoe paddling over a distance of 120 kilometers. Along with fifteen other Royal Canadian Army cadets and three Cadet Instructors Cadre (CIC) Officers from across Canada, the 17-yearold cadet participated in the National Army Domestic Expedition from June 4-18. Chernoff first backpacked along the western coast of Hudson Bay for four days. Then, the expedition left Churchill
for the Manigotagan River system, where the group paddled, portaged and camped along the river system. Chernoff, a four-year member of the 2812 Seaforth Highlanders, said she enjoys the cadet program as it challenges and helps develop her physical abilities while having fun in the process. The goal of the expedition was to explore “the land of little sticks,” with its glacier-sculpted boulders, tundra, and miniature shrubs that poke through the permafrost. It also allowed for personal exploration of the remains of Pre-Dorset civilizations, fur-traders and settlers.

The Army Cadet Expedition is the premier Army Cadet activity that challenges participants to new levels, and is the culmination of at least four years of training, requiring a superior level of fitness and maturity. This domestic expedition provides cadets with the opportunity to put into practice self-reliance, leadership and the spirit of adventure. The Cadet Program is a national program for youth aged 12 to 18. It is sponsored by the Department of National Defence in partnership with three civilian organizations, The Navy League, The Army Cadet League and The Air Cadet League.

among more than 100 artists whose work is featured this weekend and next at the 38th annual Arnold Mikelson Festival of Arts. Painters April Lacheur and David Patterson will both be bringing their highly individualistic, simplified approaches to landscapes and natural subjects to the annual festival, which returns to the Mind and Matter Gallery, 13743 16 Ave., July 9-10 and July 16-17. In addition to paintings, the festival also highlights pottery, wood sculpture, stone sculpture, glass blowing, batiks and jewelry. Lacheur, who moved from Vancouver Island to White Rock last summer, is participating in the festival for her second year. She said the three-acre forest setting of the festival is a perfect compliment to her tree paintings, which are executed in a style employing bold colours and clean lines. Among her favourite subjects are whimsical trees with twisting roots, but she also paints longlegged birds and bright florals. In addition to original paintings she will also be selling a selection of art cards and prints from her work. The Vancouver-born Patterson, who moved to the area last year from the Burnaby area, has also previously exhibited work in the Mikelson festival. A keen musician as well as a painter, he has developed a unique manner of working with oil paint and sand to create textured canvases that bring out light and depth of form with unusual vibrancy. His evolving style emphasizes symmetrical, mirror-image compositions to create almost dream-like landscapes, while even his abstracts

Golf
Fitness and Fun for Everyone The sport of golf is a growing global phenomenon. People of all race, age, and gender are turning to the game for leisure, fitness, and sport. Golf has undoubtedly become a contemporary sport that is synonymous with both health and lifestyle. An increasing number of gym goers are opting out of their boring gym workouts to instead enjoy a round of golf and fresh air. Not only is golf a fun and social sport, it promotes good physical and mental health. Just ask any avid golfer, the game has the tendency to boost both physical and mental well being. Playing golf is surprisingly a great cardiovascular workout. Between golf swings and walking the entire 18 hole course, you will definitely break a sweat and work your cardiovascular system. Research shows that 1 hour at the driving range burns approximately 200 calories and a round of golf can burn over 1000 calories! And don’t forget, golf is a terrific form of weight bearing exercise. Including golf in your weekly strength training routine promotes healthy, lean muscle mass that also prevents osteoporosis. The game of golf is certainly a fun alternative to getting your daily or weekly dose of exercise. The beauty of the game of golf is that there are no pre-requisites; it is a sport that can be easily taken up and enjoyed by any interested person of any skill and physical ability. The golf course is no longer the singular territory of affluent men. Nowadays, you will find kids, youth, women, seniors, and even paraplegics on the fairways and greens. So don’t be shy, pick up some clubs, get outside, get swinging, and enjoy! You are guaranteed to get your serotonin fix. Dean Lim, CPGA Class A Head Teaching Win Le, CPGA

Black cottonwood: A tree for all seasons Those fluffy white balls floating in the air are the delicate seeds of the black cottonwood tree. Tall, fragrant and fast-growing, cottonwoods are trees of the wetlands. They tolerate standing water and can grow abundantly on floodplains. In the Lower Mainland, they are often found along rivers and streams and in freshwater marshes. Once the soft fluff floats to the ground, the seed it carries sinks into the soil. Saplings soon sprout in sunny locations and the tree will make fast progress, reaching 60 metres tall in optimum conditions. The bark starts off smooth, but as the tree ages it turns pale grey and becomes deeply furrowed. The black cottonwood is a tree that inspires strong sentiments: love it or hate it. For some, the rich, resin smell of the buds and young leaves is evocative of the West, and walking among cottonwoods is a delight at any season. For others, fear of the tree’s reputation as a dangerous limb dropper and its propensity for distributing its catkins and seeds far and wide, are enough to bring demands for its removal from public areas. Yet cottonwoods create an important habitat; without them, many species would lack food and shelter.
Insects attracted to the fragrant scent of the buds feed many songbirds, including northbound migrants and nestlings in spring. The green, deciduous leaves screen many warblers and vireos foraging in the upper branches. Insects drop into the streams and rivers that the great trees shade, providing food for juvenile salmon and other fish in the shallows below. Cottonwoods are also habitat for beautiful western tiger swallowtail butterflies. The trees mature fast but are relatively short-lived. As branches break off, cavities and snags are created which provide perfect nesting and denning

NO, IT IS NOT snowing.
Anne Murray holes for great horned owls, wood ducks, downy woodpeckers, northern flickers, tree swallows, squirrels and bats. Margaret Stewart recorded as many as 50 ruffed grouse perched in a local cottonwood tree in the 1890s. The grouse was then a common bird of the Boundary Bay lowlands; it would be a very rare sight today.
Riparian, or river side, vegetation is very important for stabilizing the banks of rivers, and keeping water clean, cool and rich in life. Black cottonwoods are among the largest of riparian trees, which include birches and alders. Admire their shimmering leaves from a distance (especially on a windy day), breath in their fragrant scent, and enjoy the life among their branches.
