province by the Real Estate Investment Network (REIN). REIN, a leading real estate research organization in Canada, has released its latest report on the top cities and towns in B.C. for real estate investment. Surrey landed in the number-one position. The report, titled Top British Columbia Investment Towns 2011, analyzes the current and future prospects for real estate investment opportunities across the province and identifies the top regions that will outperform in the coming decade. The findings are based on in-depth research, analysis of the latest statistics, economic and social trends, and on-the-ground reports from REIN’s research staff and members, along with reports and statistics from organizations such as Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation, Statistics Canada, Multiple Listing Service, Canadian Home Builders Association, city and regional real estate boards, and local economic development offices. Anita Huberman, CEO of the Surrey Board of Trade, is not surprised by Surrey’s positive performance. See SURREY / Page 4
Pattullo dogged by delays TransLink aims to open new tolled span in 2018 by Jeff Nagel A NEW and likely tolled Pattullo Bridge won’t open
before 2018 at the earliest, according to internal TransLink estimates. That timeline calling for procurement in 2013 and a construction start in 2015 is contained in reports obtained by Black Press under Freedom of Information legislation. But even those dates are starting to look doubtful because TransLink is now more than a year behind schedule in launching a promised round of public consultations on the new bridge’s design.
The delay is largely due to months of wrangling between TransLink officials, who insist a new bridge is needed, and the province’s transportation ministry, which argued as recently as last spring to instead refurbish the existing 74-year-old bridge to save money and avoid the need for tolls. TransLink spokesperson Erin Dermer said public outreach sessions are being planned by the end of this year to update the public on the status of the project in advance of formal consultations. “Our plan is to undertake public consultations in the

Panghali appeals murder conviction by Sheila Reynolds MUKHTIAR PANGHALI, who earlier this year was found guilty of murdering his pregnant wife and burning her body, is appealing his conviction. Panghali, a former Surrey high school teacher, was convicted of second-degree murder in the 2006 death of his pregnant wife Manjit Panghali, a 31-year-old elementary school teacher. Mukhtiar’s conviction carried a life sentence with no possibility of parole for 15 years. However, he has now made an application to the B.C. Court of Appeal to throw out his conviction. Manjit’s family says they expected the appeal. “Some people would have felt guilty,” said Manjit’s sister Jasmine Bhambra. “But we know that’s not who he is. There is no remorse coming from him.” Mukhtiar Panghali did not report his wife missing until 26 hours after her disappearance on Oct. 18, 2006 and shortly after, held a tearful press conference with police where he pleaded for Manjit’s return. Her burned body was discovered on a South Delta shoreline a few days later. She was four months pregnant with her second child. Her husband was charged with second-degree murder five months Manjit later. Panghali In convicting Panghali in early February, Supreme Court Justice Heather Holmes said while the evidence against him was circumstantial, it was very powerful. During the trial, Mukhtiar evidence included Panghali video footage of Panghali purchasing a lighter and newspaper at a local gas station the night of Manjit’s disappearance, and cellphone records that showed Mukhtiar was using Manjit’s phone for months after her death, despite the fact she took it to her yoga class the night she died. That showed Manjit had returned home after her class that evening and that Mukhtiar was the last person to see her, said the justice in delivering her ruing early this year. Holmes also denied that the charge be downgraded from seconddegree murder to manslaughter, saying that although Manjit’s death by strangulation may have been brief, it was extremely forceful – worse than that of a human hanging. Bhambra is confident Panghali’s murder conviction will stand. “He’s just spinning his wheels,” she said. “There is no basis for the appeal.” A court date to hear the appeal has yet to be set.

Voter turnout at advance polls shatters record If steady showing continues on Nov. 19, Surrey may exceed 35 per cent turnout by Kevin Diakiw ADVANCE TURNOUT for this year’s civic elec-
tion is surpassing any in history, indicating there may be a large number of voters coming out to the polls on general voting day, Nov. 19. In the advance polls over the last week, 6,489 people cast ballots. That almost doubles the 3,700 voters who showed up during week-long advance polls three years ago, and even eclipses the 4,900 who took early voting opportunities during the 2005 mayoral slug-fest between Dianne Watts and Doug McCallum. In fact, it’s a greater number than have ever come out to the early polling stations, city staff say. In Delta, 2,403 people came out to the three early voting days, greater than the 2,090 three years ago and the 2,269 in the byelection last year.

Turnout at advance polls this year almost Describing action at the advanced polls as brisk and steady, city staff are excited by the doubled the ones in 2008.
high turnout, which represents 2.32 per cent of registered voters, bringing this city the third best percentage in history. In 1980, four per cent of the registered voters showed up to the early polls. All of this could be a harbinger of what is to come on election day. In 2005, 35.4 per cent of registered voters came out to cast their ballots on election day. If the turnout passes that, it will be the greatest showing in more than 20 years (37.95 per cent of voters participated in 1990). Several factors could be at play to explain the high turnout at advance polls, including an effective advertising campaign by the city letting people know of the early voting, along with a dynamic competition for mayor, council and school board, where significant issues are being raised that are engaging voters. It also indicates there’s effective get-outthe-vote machines in two party camps, both in Surrey First and the Surrey Civic Coalition. Surrey is electing eight councillors and a mayor as well as six trustees on Saturday, Nov. 19. kdiakiw@surreyleader.com

Pattullo: Decision for new bridge not wavered From page 1 early spring of 2012,” she said. Those consultations had been originally set for September of 2010 until the province asked they be postponed while ministry staff reviewed the plans. Dermer said TransLink’s decision last May to build a new bridge has not wavered. “Our intention is certainly to replace the bridge,” she said. She said it’s “premature” to discuss tolls but a staff report says the new bridge will be “a toll bridge in the absence of alternative senior government funding.” No decision has been made on
whether TransLink will propose building a four- or six-lane new bridge and Dermer could not say whether that will happen in time for the spring consultations. “We are evaluating both the fourand six-lane options,” she said, adding TransLink is working closely with staff from both the cities of Surrey and New Westminster. Also still to be determined is the alignment of the new bridge and how it would connect to the South Fraser Perimeter Road in Surrey and routes through New Westminster. A cost-benefit analysis tabled by consultants in March found a six-lane replacement bridge will
provide the most value and best connections. It would also allow the potential for some bus- or truckonly lanes. A four-lane replacement would make the notoriously narrow bridge safer but would deliver only “modest” traffic flow improvements and wouldn’t provide capacity for growth. If the new bridge does open by 2018, it will be a decade after the TransLink board first voted in 2008 to build it, discarding the possibility of a cheaper fix of the existing span after years of studies. The cheaper fix would have been to take one lane out and turn the Pattullo into a three-lane bridge
with a counterflow lane, worsening congestion. Consultants found there was no way to make it safe while keeping four lanes. Only a new bridge will address earthquake safety risks. “It’s gone on slower than anybody would have liked,” New Westminster Mayor Wayne Wright said, predicting even the 2018 target will be challenging. “The sooner they do it the better.” He said TransLink can’t simply plug a six-lane bridge into existing New Westminster roads or gridlock will result and the larger bridge is only possible if it’s built in concert with key sections of the North Fraser Perimeter Road.
Some New Westminster residents hope the bridge will be tolled – otherwise it will pour even more traffic into that city’s congested downtown as drivers avoid tolls on the new Port Mann Bridge. Many wish the new Pattullo could be placed to divert traffic around their city. “It was like heaven when it got shut down,” Wright said, referring to the two-week closure of the bridge due to a fire in 2009. Many people have died in crashes on the bridge or its approaches over the years. The bridge’s centre lanes are closed each night to reduce the risk of head-on crashes.
Surrey: Poised to reap more benefits From page 1 “We’re doing everything we can to make sure Surrey is a great place to invest,” Huberman said. “So, it does not come as a surprise.” That said, she believes now is no time for complacency. “I don’t think Surrey in its current economic climate has the ability or the time to rest on its laurels,” she said. “I think more needs to be done.” The REIN report looks at such factors as: • Is the area’s population growing faster than the provincial average? • Is new infrastructure being built to handle that growth? • Is the area creating new jobs and taking steps to maintain current employment levels? • Will Surrey benefit from an economic or real estate ripple effect? • Has political leadership created an economic growth atmosphere? • Are there major transportation improvements in the works? “As one of the fastest-growing cities in the province, Surrey has spent recent years diversifying its economy and has experienced a tremendous population increase in the last decade,” writes Don R. Campbell, president of REIN, in the report. “Currently recognized as the 12th largest city in Canada, Surrey is expected to overtake Vancouver’s title as the largest city in B.C. in the next decade.” Campbell went on to say that Surrey will reap the benefits of the Gateway Program (which includes the South Fraser Perimeter Road and the new Port Mann Bridge) and TransLink improvements.
“A number of projects are in various states of completion that will positively impact the commute for residents to and from Surrey and improve transportation logistics for businesses,” Campbell said. “In the next decade, the city will continue to see explosive population growth, one of the most important factors to consider when deciding where to invest.” The top towns ranked in the report are: 1). Surrey 2). Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows 3). Kamloops 4). Abbotsford 5). Fort St. John 6). Dawson Creek 7). Kelowna 8). Comox Valley 9). Penticton 10). Prince George 11). Vancouver Founded in 1993, REIN has grown over the years to become Canada’s leading real estate research, investment and education organization. It serves more than 3,000 member clients who own more than 26,000 properties (valued at over $3.3 billion) across the country. Members use the unbiased research and proven systems to invest in properties in economically strong regions across the country.

HOUSING
Issue hits close to home
RAESIDE
O
ne of the more notable elements of this year’s municipal election campaign has been the sponsorship of all-candidates meetings in both White Rock and Surrey by groups dedicated to addressing the issue of homelessness. The Candidates Cafe held last week at the new City Centre library by the Surrey Homelessness and Housing Task Force and the meeting last Wednesday by the Peninsula’s Homeless To Housing Round Table are reminders to those seeking office of a problem all too often swept under the carpet. It takes a lot of money these days to stage an effective political campaign – even on a municipal level – and in an era of low voter turnout it seems it’s those candidates who have spent the most on advertising materials and placement that have the best chance of attracting votes. This can often mean politicians in local office who are insulated from some of the harder realities of a post-recession economy and more likely to have an empathy deficit common among our political leaders on every level. To some, the only answer for those in desperate straits is ‘get a job’ and move on – preferably anywhere where they can’t impinge on the image of progress and prosperity. But in a world of high debt and uncertainty, in which many of us are only one or two paycheques away from poverty, this is a dangerously short-sighted attitude. Homelessness may often be out of sight and out of mind in our apparently affluent society – frequently at the wish of those forced to couch surf or sleep in cars themselves. It is a social reality nonetheless, and one in which the impact is likely to be felt on our own streets first. What affects the citizens of our communities is the first and foremost priority of those we elect to represent us. All too often, the plight of the homeless is a missing plank in campaign platforms constructed of glib rhetoric. To address the needs of have-nots in a meaningful way – beyond the frequently served menu of empty platitudes, dilettante charity drives or passing the problem off to some other level of government – requires some personal investigation, more than a little sober reflection and a large degree of personal empathy. That’s why all-candidates meetings that acknowledge the existence of the issue are a valuable exercise – not only in terms of weighing the fitness of candidates for office, but also in terms of what they may end up learning for themselves. – Black Press

The council considers complaints from the public about the conduct of member newspapers. Directors oversee the mediation of complaints, with input from both the newspaper and the complaint holder.

Just another layer of bureaucracy, according to these experts on the subject. At the convention, I asked NDP MLA Carole James about this. A veteran of local government, she observed that it would be awkward for local politicians to go back to their communities and campaign against accountability. There is much that is not discussed and it goes beyond technical details like performance auditing. How about amalgamation in places where there are clearly too many municipal boundaries, policing is fragmented and administration is duplicated? You won’t hear much about that, unless a lot more voters insist on it. Tom Business groups and community newspapers raise it, and it fades away. Not enough people care. Few challengers and even fewer incumbent politicians signed the taxpayers’ pledge offered up at local election time by the Canadian Federation of Independent Business. It’s a modest

he red-headed stepchild of democracy is shivering on the doorstep again. Most won’t open the door. Local government elections are always overshadowed by louder events, and this year is no different. The “occupy” nonsense, the teachers’ strike, the precarious economy and the media’s fixation on them are part of the problem. But let’s face it. Public indifference to local government has left it mainly to self-serving politicians and special interest groups. Community newspapers soldier on through the three years between elections to highlight issues and choices, but few people join the debate when it’s time to vote. The recent Union of B.C. Municipalities convention demonstrated this. Local politicians love to tell senior governments what to do. They’d much rather debate smart meters or bad old Ottawa’s RCMP costs than talk about their own performance. Most of the mayors and councillors on hand were unhappy with the province’s plan to appoint a municipal auditor-general to examine the efficiency of municipal spending.

proposal to match spending growth with real growth. Candidates don’t want to talk about the fact that B.C. municipal spending, adjusted for inflation, is now growing almost four times as fast as population growth. Pay and benefits for municipal employees grow much faster than private sector rates. Not enough people care. The Canadian Union of Public Employees is campaigning against contracted private development of water utilities. They prefer their high-cost monopoly. And outside their special interest support, not enough people care. School board elections have become even more of an insider Fletcher activity. To take one example, a school trustee candidate forum in Abbotsford last week started with a protest march by 18 teachers. They carried their message inside, demanding smaller classes, more special needs support, the familiar list of demands in their dysfunctional relationship with the provincewide bargaining agent.

Of course school trustees have no actual authority over these huge and costly issues. The province took away school board taxing authority long ago, because the teacher and support staff unions have the money and voting numbers to control low-turnout local elections for their own benefit. Now the unions have to settle for vetting candidates according to their willingness to lobby the B.C. government on behalf of unions. (If anyone has attended a trustee forum that wasn’t taken over by teachers, please e-mail me. I haven’t heard of one for years.) There are still things you can do to compare candidates, and it doesn’t take long to sort through a dozen or two hopefuls. Please, check this paper’s website for recent surveys and stories on the local candidates, and take some time on Saturday to back the people who you think have the best experience, independence and understanding of the community’s needs.

Renewable clean energy is a priority Damning
THE PROVINCIAL government’s announcement
of $17 million in funding to help get B.C. consumers into clean energy vehicles, and support B.C.’s green-tech sector, is something that our group, B.C. Citizens for Green Energy (BCCGE), applauds and fully supports. Making clean energy transportation options more affordable for consumers, and getting more electric, hydrogen and natural gas-powered vehicles on the road, along with the necessary infrastructure to support the initiative, is a good thing.
However, in order to achieve a net gain from reduced tailpipe emissions, we also need to ensure that the electricity powering these clean energy vehicles is coming from renewable clean energy sources rather than from imported coal-fired electricity. In this regard, recent talk about scaling back on B.C.’s electricity self-sufficiency objectives, and potentially relying more heavily on imports of cheap coal-fired electricity is concerning. That’s why BCCGE, has encouraged the provincial government to stay the course with the current
policy of electricity self-sufficiency and to support the jobs that renewable energy development can create province-wide. Our group has also encouraged members of the public who share our concern to write to their respective MLAs and make their view known. If B.C. wants to remain a clean energy leader, then we are going to have to meet increased electricity demand in this province with renewable clean energy.
David Field, Co-spokesperson B.C. Citizens for Green Energy
In Surrey, art seems to matter RE: SURREY ARTS and heritage and
the municipal election. Art matters. When travelling, I visit cities large and small that demonstrate this conviction. I return nourished, educated, stimulated and often challenged by the experiences. My desire is to integrate this expanded world view with my home view. Early in my 13 years as a Surrey resident, like many, I acknowledged the talent found in the local arts scene, but reserved my “real” cultural experiences for trips to Vancouver. I no longer feel this way. In the past three to five years, cultural funding has hit the chopping block, and yet Surrey initiated the Fusion Festival, the Newton Cultural Centre, business support for annual Civic Treasure awards, the new library with internationally acclaimed architecture and art installations as well as increasing a remarkable public art collection. I credit this to the vision, leadership and follow through from Mayor Watts and the Surrey First councilors. Surrey has created a cultural strategic plan through public consultation. This robust and often unwieldy process serves as an important decision making resource. Mayor, council and city staff not only listened, but have made policy changes and sought funding for

Energy creation doesn’t mean jobs YOUNG people should
be very encouraged by the job creation and economic development news of the past several weeks. Jobs are a huge topic for young people as they look to build careers, raise families and contribute to society. However, there appears to be a discrepancy between the energy intensive economic development and job creation planned for B.C. and the “go slow” approach
to energy development that seems to have taken hold in the corridors of the provincial government. At present, B.C. only has enough generating capacity to meet existing electricity demand. If B.C. doesn’t add a substantial amount of new generating capacity how will the increased electricity demand from new mines, LNG plants and other energy intensive industries be satisfied?
This seems to be a very fundamental question and one that needs to be addressed. The vision to develop B.C. economically and create jobs is very encouraging. But I really am left wondering where the energy to power this vision is going to come from if we don’t also take bold steps to develop new electricity generating capacity at the same time.

Occupation hurt by lack of focus IT’S SAD TO SEE the Occupy Vancouver protest turning into a
circus because of a few hooligans. There were some very credible issues that got pushed to the background. I hope Occupy Wall Street fares better. The global imbalances are getting worse as time goes on. This protest was a lot like the world at large; everyone’s partying but no one’s steering the ship. People seem more worried about the lawn there than the issues at hand. In a year’s time, the lawn will be repaired and no one will know they were there. If only the world’s balance sheets could be repaired as quickly. Mike MacPherson Surrey
decisions for profit RE: PRIVATIZING B.C.’s power.
One need look no further than Oliver, B.C. (July 2010) to realize the arguments Mr. McBratney (Letters, Nov. 8) makes in favour of privatization are dangerous and ill-thought out. Certainly the private owner of that dam kept costs down, to the detriment of my sister and her friends and neighbours – maintenance being neglected in favour of profit. My sister lost most of her working vineyard, bed-andbreakfast and beautiful garden, not to mention family heirlooms and personal possessions. A labour of love and the work and investment of a life time were destroyed in an instant. No, the dam owner has not taken responsibility. He pleads poverty and is nowhere to be found. Politicians and bureaucrats removed from the equation? Completely untrue. It is the government’s duty to protect the lives and property of its citizens. The government has paid for quite a few studies in the last year-and-a-half related to this disaster. They have a lawyer who acts as an intermediary for them who supposedly works “seven days a week” to settle with the victims. The initial clean-up and highway clearing was not paid for by the dam’s owner. Who do you think is paying for all this? Meanwhile my sister is grateful to be alive, homeless but housed by a kind neighbour. She feels encouraged and loved by the wonderful people of Oliver. You won’t find her at Occupy Vancouver, as she’s busy working what remains of her vineyard and for Hester Creek Estate Winery, as well volunteering in her community. She’s my hero. I will forward Mr. McBratney’s thoughts to my sister and her neighbours. Perhaps after they finish laughing, they will care to comment further. Donna L. Kill Surrey

Teen driver pleads guilty in deadly crash 15-year-old Surrey passenger Sanjeeve Sharma killed in 2009 by Sheila Reynolds THE TEEN DRIVER
charged in connection with a crash that killed
another Surrey teenager, Sanjeeve Sharma, pleaded guilty in court Monday morning. The driver, who was
16 at the time of the alleged offence and therefore cannot be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, was
charged with dangerous driving causing death Clean cut with a goatee and wearing a dark suit, the now 18-year-old
stared straight ahead as his lawyer, Russ Chamberlain, entered the guilty plea in Surrey Provincial Court.

Sanjeeve Sharma attended court to hear the plea. Though pleased they don’t have to endure a trial, Sanjeeve’s father isn’t convinced the guilty plea means the driver has taken responsibility. “It’s legal advice,” said Sanjay Sharma. “It’s not him.” He also doubts the accused will face any jail time because he is a young offender. “It doesn’t matter,” said Sanjay. “Sanjeeve will always be with us.” Sentencing will take place at a later date.

Perchance to dream at Crescent Beach
Candace Radcliffe with Rick Harmon looking at an artist’s impression of the Shakespeare By The Sea site.
Outdoor performance set for August by Alex Browne YOU’VE HEARD of Bard
On The Beach – but how about Shakespeare By The Sea? Producing the classic works of William Shakespeare each summer in her own (figurative) backyard has been a dream of Candace Radcliffe, Earl Marriott Secondary drama teacher and Crescent Beach resident, for years. But Radcliffe – with her Beach House Theatre creative partners, former Marriott drama guru Rick Harmon and Marriott grad/set designer extraordinary Nicole Chartrand – has met all the initial challenges of achieving the goal. An outdoor – but sheltered – inaugural Shakespeare By The Sea production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream has been given the green light by the City of Surrey for five performances Aug. 15-19, 2012 at Crescent Beach. The talented team, which created a memorably magical version of the bard’s most accessible classic at Marriott in 2005, plans to transform the parking lot area adjacent to Blackie Spit into a lit and gated open air theatre with some 200-250 seats under an arching tent. A tiered stage set will have the most dynamic backdrop imaginable – in the team’s words: “the incredible natural stage of Blackie Spit in the background.� “We feel like Crescent Beach is the star,� said Radcliffe, adding that much thought and discussion with city officials has gone into choosing a performance area that works best for the company and the community. “We didn’t want to be confrontational with anybody,� she said. “We’re just so excited about the potential for the project and what it could be.� The weather, of course, is always an imponderable when an outdoor event is planned in B.C. “We have chosen what is, historically, the warmest, driest period of the year,� said Harmon. “But no matter what the weather is, the
show will go on.� It’s likely there will be no argument about that from the actors, for whom Radcliffe and Harmon plan to draw on some keen alumni from past Marriott productions. The team also plans to open up casting to the community at large early next year. “We’re looking at a broad age range, generally anywhere from 19 to 60,� Radcliffe said. “We’re also going to need a large group of volunteers.� The organizers also see Shakespeare By The Sea as an opportunity to mentor youth, particularly in the many behind the scenes technical roles required to create an instant outdoor theatre. “This will be the first time we have done a production that isn’t in an existing theatre,� admitted Harmon, whose many directing credits also include many community shows with the Fraser Valley Gilbert and Sullivan Society, and Peace Arch Musical Theatre Society. To make the Beach House Theatre/ Shakespeare By The Sea project a reality will need genuine community support – including significant financial contributions from individual donors and corporate sponsors to the tune of some $70,000 to $80,000. Fundraising is currently underway, with a major limited-ticket event planned for Morgan Creek Golf Club for Feb. 25. Just getting to this point has been an intense experience, they said – including meeting all the requirements of establishing a nonprofit society. But they’re happy they have a board of directors with a strong background in the arts – and the business of arts – including former Marriott principal, and current Tamanawis Secondary principal, Margaux Molson. “It’s one of the most incredible groups of people I’ve ever worked with,� Radcliffe said. And it’s not lost on the team that the project has many potential tie-ins with local businesses and
promoting the area as a destination. It’s their hope that many others will see the potential, and want to get on the band wagon. For more information on how to get involved with Beach House Theatre and Shakespeare By The Sea project, visit www. beachhousetheatre.org or call Radcliffe at 604710-4929.

Does Cloverdale skate park need an overhaul? Facility not safe, says board shop owner by Jennifer Lang CALLING EXTREME
Makeover, Skate Park Edition. It’s time to renovate – if not completely overhaul – Cloverdale’s skate park, says the owner of a local board shop. The decade-old facility has so many cracks and bumps it’s impossible for newbies to skate safely, says Shawn Jafarnejad,
an Ontario native who came west to work at the 2010 Winter Olympics and stayed, opening Ollie North Skate Shop in Cloverdale last year. “Cloverdale’s one of the most busiest parks in the Lower Mainland,” he says, “because we’ve got the best vibe.” But the vibe here is a lot harsher on inexperienced skaters, whom he says are getting hurt due
Surrey Board of Trade INVITATION MAYOR AND COUNCIL CANDIDATES BUSINESS DIALOGUE EVENT CITY ELECTION 2011 A Surrey Board of Trade Leadership Surrey Event PLEASE ATTEND: The Surrey Board of Trade is asking for business leaders, their staff, and the community to get to know the candidates that are running for the City Election before you vote on November 19th. The meeting will be organized by focusing on 7 key areas: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
Crime (Panelist: Jock Finlayson, BC Business Council) Environment (Panelist: David O’Sullivan, PW Trenchless) Industry (Panelist: Brenda Lee, Fraser Valley Real Estate Board) International (Panelist: Greg Timm, Pacific Customs Brokers) Social Policy (Panelist: Gerard Bremault, Centre for Child Development) Taxation (Panelist: Nissar Dalal, VanCity Business Banking) Transportation (Panelist: Scott Adkins, PCL Constructors Westcoast)
to sharp ramp angles and transitions at the park. There are other issues: the snake run was never built, and the bowl has a bump in the centre. It’s as if the builders had some dirt left over and put it there, he says. Jafarnejad is hoping to convince the City of Surrey to revamp the park, or demolish it entirely and rebuild it from scratch. Located at the youth park at 17848 64 Avenue, the facility is lagging behind contemporary skate parks, which can be constructed to look more like a plaza, and are places where families would feel comfortable walking with their children and “not know it’s a skate park,” he says. Jafarnejad is trying to garner support for turning the park into a more family and visitorfriendly spot, with better lighting, an art wall, attractive landscaping with benches, planters, fountains and walking paths, even a community garden. “I’m trying to get the 95 per cent of the community involved, not just the skateboarders. The parents, the teachers, the everyday traffic that walks by there.” He’s hopeful after talking to skate park companies and after a conversation with Mayor Dianne Watts at the official opening of the state-of-the-art Chuck Bailey Youth Park.
“We all know it all comes down to money and budgeting,” he added. His vision is to turn the Cloverdale Youth Park into a Skate-Spot Safe-Spot, a 24-hour skate spot with an emergency call system and a city map pointing out nearby amenities and bus routes. “It’s a spot where all the community can hang out,” he said. “So it’s always safe, because there’s always eyes, there’s always ears.” This week, Jafarnejad is seeking online votes for the proposal, which has made it to round two of the Aviva Community Fund competition. If successful, the project would gain $100,000 to $150,000 in grant money to get off the ground. As of Tuesday, the proposal had garnered 324 online votes and 229 ‘likes’ on Facebook. Round two voting ends Nov. 9 at noon ET. He’s also gathering signatures on a petition seeking support for rebuilding Cloverdale’s skate park. He says the final result would help bring the community together – and add another attraction to Cloverdale. To vote or view the idea, go to www. avivacommunityfund. org/ideas/view/12609, or visit www.ollienorth.ca and follow the link to the Aviva Community Fund website.

Garbage fees soar in ‘frugal’ Metro budget Typical homes will pay $524 in regional fees, up $11 by Jeff Nagel GET READY to pay more
for regional utilities – especially garbage disposal – next year. Metro Vancouver will raise the garbage tipping fee at its transfer stations Jan. 1 from $97 to $107 per tonne, an increase of more than 10 per cent. A sluggish economy means less garbage is being generated and less tipping fees are collected, so the region has had to increase the rate to cover

Farmers: Test results welcomed From page 12 salmon in B.C.” The CFIA retested all 48 salmon originally sampled by SFU researchers as well as hundreds more sampled at the same time that weren’t initially tested. It also tested other samples independent biologist Alexandra Morton collected and claimed were infected. Kiley said the results were consistent with the findings of a lab in Norway that also tested the samples. He said some of the results must be considered inconclusive because of the poor quality of the samples, which had been kept in freezers for an extended period. More tests are continuing, he said, adding the CFIA and Department of Fisheries and Oceans felt it important to release the findings so far. Asked when the CFIA might be able to say with confidence whether or not B.C. is ISA-free, he said it may not be possible. “‘All clear’ is not something we could probably ever say,” Kiley said. “It’s very hard to prove a negative. All we can do is state that we have not found a virus in all the sampling that’s been done already.” Kiley said the CFIA is still assessing whether it needs to expand sampling of Pacific salmon as a result of the investigation. Morton, who suspects fish farms imported the virus with Atlantic salmon eggs and transmitted it to wild stocks, said she’s not convinced by the CFIA results. “I still remain very concerned,” she said. “If they’re giving British
Columbia a clean bill of health because the samples they looked at were too degraded, what kind of confidence can I have in that?” Morton wants a much-expanded independent program set up
The B.C. Salmon Farmers Association executive director Mary Ellen Walling welcomed the results. “We’re pleased to see the thorough way CFIA is following up, but are dismayed at the way campaigners used this to create fear about our operations,” she said. The “inflammatory” unconfirmed report announced by SFU Oct. 17 seemed intended to “create as much hype as possible,” Walling said, adding it had potential to disrupt markets for B.C. salmon farms. NDP federal fisheries critic Fin Donnelly called for more sampling and accused the federal government of being too slow to react to the reports of infections. “This scare should serve as a wake-up call,” he said, adding it’s the wrong time for a planned $57-million cut to the Department of Fisheries and Oceans budget.

government to force fish farms to phase out opennet pens and move to closed containment systems, adding that would eliminate the potential of farms to transit disease to wild stocks. ISA has mainly been a disease of farmed Atlantic salmon. The European strain can kill up to 90 per cent of infected Atlantic salmon but it’s thought to be less dangerous to sockeye.
drinking water from Coquitlam Lake, which serves the eastern third of the region. Work will also start on a new $250-million seismically protected water tunnel under the Fraser River to serve the growing South of Fraser area and ensure the water supply there isn’t knocked out in an earthquake. Another water tunnel at Annacis Island is estimated at $430 million, part of a planned $2.3-billion package of water capital projects over the next decade. “We’ve survived a long time with things that would go down in an earthquake,” Metro chief administrator Johnny
Carline said. “Now we’re having a hard look at whether we can take that kind of gamble any longer.” Metro is also required by the federal government to upgrade its Iona and Lions Gate sewage treatment plants to secondary treatment, a bill estimated at $1.4 billion in the coming years. North Vancouver District Mayor Richard Walton said he’s concerned about the rising bills for households, particularly seniors on fixed incomes.

Coleman also defended a deferral account set up to pay the $930 million cost of installing BC Hydro’s smart grid. Savings from that upgrade are sufficient to pay for the capital cost, he said. NDP finance critic Bruce Ralston reminded
Coleman that the association of major industrial power users has also raised concerns about BC Hydro’s growing deferred debt, and the potential to deter new mines and other investments that face higher rate increases in the future.

Berner’s bail extended as appeal judges deliberate Charter rights violated, lawyer argues by Tracy Holmes THE B.C. COURT of Appeal
reserved judgment and extended bail Thursday afternoon in the hearing for Carol Berner – the woman found guilty of impaired driving in the 2008 death of toddler Alexa Middelaer. Berner, who is appealing two counts of dangerous driving and two counts of impaired driving, did not attend the proceedings as spectators packed the courtroom Thursday morning in Vancouver – though she was in the building, having been ordered to surrender herself
on the hearing date. The 58-year-old was sentenced in November 2010 to 2½ years in prison and a five-year driving ban, but has been free on bail for the past year, pending her appeal. Thursday – as Alexa’s mother, Laurel Middelaer, and aunt, Daphne Johanson, listened – Berner’s lawyer, David Tarnow, told judges that his client was effectively detained at the collision scene when she was left in a locked police car for about 30 minutes; that Berner wasn’t advised of her charter rights before she was questioned in that car; and that the officer on the scene
didn’t have reasonable suspicion before administering a road-side breath test, in which Berner blew a ‘fail.’ Tarnow asked the judges to find that a statement Berner made to the officer while in the car about having consumed two glasses of wine more than three hours earlier “should have been ruled inadmissible.” “Even if you’re not with me on that, I submit the reasonable suspicion test has not been met,” he said. “It is my respectful submission that (the officer) was on a fishing expedition and could not have had a reasonable suspicion the
appellant still had alcohol in her body.” Tarnow also submitted that the destruction of Berner’s vehicle before she was charged left defence counsel without a crucial piece of evidence. In addressing the detention issue, Crown John Gordon said it must be reviewed with regard “to the entire interaction as it developed.” Gordon stressed that the trial judge accepted the officer’s testimony that Berner appeared agreeable to being put in the car. It was done, the officer said, to keep her safe and comfortable at a chaotic scene, Gordon said.

so that he could help Middelaer find her eight-year-old son, who she had lost track of at the scene. “A lot of it had to do with me,” Middelaer said. “I lost him in all the chaos. (The officer) saw me in a state of panic. That is why Ms. Berner (was in the car so long).” She said she is hopeful the judges will “err on the side of common sense.” Tarnow asked the judges to acquit Berner or to call for a new trial. He told reporters he believes his arguments were “very good points.” “We’ll see if the three judges agree.”
“Yes, the door locks – that is the function of doors in the rear seat of a police vehicle,” he said. Gordon described the issue of the destroyed car as one that had minimal impact on the trial. The car had been independently inspected and defence counsel was provided all of the test results, he said. Outside court, Laurel Middelaer told The Leader that it would be “an ironic twist of fate” if Berner won her appeal on the grounds she wasn’t properly detained. Alexa’s mother recalled how the officer had placed Berner in the back of her patrol car

Trio bid to build Evergreen
COME AND MEET THE EXPERTS AT OUR
WEDDING & TRAVEL FAIR!
Winning construction company announced next summer by Diane Strandberg THREE BUILDERS are in the
running to build the Evergreen Line after the province issued its request for proposals (RFP) for construction bids for the $1.4-billion project Wednesday. The RFP has been issued to EL Partners, Kiewit/Flatiron Evergreen Line and SNC-Lavalin Inc., all of which have until April 12, 2012 to hand in their technical submissions. According to documents released by the province, the winning bid will be chosen next summer, with major construction starting after that. The job entails building the 11-kilometre line from Lougheed Town Centre in Burnaby to Douglas College in Coquitlam, with

a combination of elevated and at-grade guideway and a two-km bored tunnel. Lougheed Town Centre Station will also be expanded and five new stations will be built, with the provision for three potential future stations. The builder will also construct a vehicle storage building and facilities for integrating transit as well as pedestrian, vehicle and bicycle access. The documents – available through www.partnershipsbc. ca – also give some insights into the amount of work that will have to be done by the province before construction begins, including: widening of North Road; installation of 25Kv power line along North Road and Clarke Road and relocation of overhead 69Kv transmission lines at Como Lake
and Clarke; installation of fibre optic cable; and relocation of the CP Rail track located adjacent to a portion of the alignment in Port Moody. Separate tenders will be required for this work, which is expected to start in early 2012. TransLink will provide the vehicles, fare collection and fare gate equipment required for the Evergreen Line but the contractor will have to make sure the vehicles run seamlessly between the old and new parts of the Millennium Line and make sure the facilities can support the fare collection system. Opening date for the Evergreen Line is the summer of 2016, with 15-minute service planned between Coquitlam City Centre and Lougheed Town Centre.

NDP regains lead in new provincial poll ‘Right-of-centre’ split helps New Democrats by Tom F letcher THE NEW Democratic Party has a nine-point lead over the B.C. Liberals, up two points since March, according to the latest poll by Angus Reid Public Opinion. The poll found 40 per cent of B.C. adults support or are leaning towards the NDP in the next provincial election, scheduled for May 2013. That’s a two-point increase since the last Angus Reid
survey in March, the first outright lead for the NDP since Gordon Campbell resigned as premier a year ago. The B.C. Liberals fell to 31 per cent support, a 12 per cent drop since March. The main beneficiary is the resurgent B.C. Conservative Party, which attracted 18 per cent of voter intentions. In the B.C. Interior and North, one in five surveyed support the B.C. Conservatives, while the NDP
maintained a substantial lead in Metro Vancouver and Vancouver Island. Premier Christy Clark continues to lead on the question of who would be the best premier, with 25 per cent compared to 19 per cent for NDP leader Adrian Dix. B.C. Conservative leader John Cummins was the choice of nine per cent, with two per cent favouring B.C. Green Party leader Jane Sterk. BC Liberal MLA John Les
acknowledged that political wedge issues rather than most B.C. Conservative support is comsolutions. Clark ing from the B.C. challenged the Liberals. NDP Wednesday to “What this poll support the federal government’s crime shows very clearly is that if the right-ofbill. centre vote splits, the Cummins has NDP gets in the back John Cummins targeted the B.C. door,” Les said. Liberals on crime, from its response to NDP house leader John Horgan said Clark’s the Stanley Cup riot to Clark’s performance in the legislature rhetoric on the federal crime shows she is looking for crackdown.
“This soft-on-crime Liberal government has cut prosecutors, cut sheriffs and wonders why our justice system is backed up,” Cummins said. Personal approval ratings remained steady from the last poll, with Dix at 40 per cent and Clark at 39 per cent. The Angus Reid survey was conducted online, with 803 B.C. adults taking part from Oct. 31 to Nov. 1. Its margin of error is plus or minus 3.5 per cent.

Bell apologizes for ‘gay tourism’ error Brochure released before trade mission to China by Tom Fletcher JOBS, TOURISM and Innovation
Minister Pat Bell has asked his ministry staff to investigate how a B.C. government brochure on marketing in China came to include an erroneous warning against promotion of gambling and gay tourism in the country. Speaking to reporters by phone from Beijing Tuesday, Bell offered an apology to anyone who is offended by the reference to gay tourism in the brochure, which is
being rewritten. Entitled “How to Market Your Business in China,” the brochure was released by his ministry days before Bell and Premier Christy Clark left for B.C.’s largest-ever trade mission to China. It said B.C. tourism partners must “prohibit the promotion of casinos, gambling and gay tourism, per the China National Tourism Association.” When the issue was raised Monday, Bell initially said the restriction was a result of Canada’s
negotiations with China for “approved destination status,” which allows Chinese tourists to visit Canada without visas. After further checking by ministry staff, Bell said no such restrictions exist in Canada’s tourism Pat Bell agreement with China. “It is still unclear to me how that passage was inserted into the document,” Bell said. “We can not find any direction either from the [approved destination
status] agreement signed with the Chinese or any other place. We are still researching that and I’ve asked my deputy to find out exactly how that happened.” The Chinese government has struggled with acceptance of homosexuality, which was removed in 2001 from the country’s official list of mental disorders. The staterun China Daily has run several articles in recent years signalling

acceptance or discussing moderating public attitudes towards gay marriage. Tourism Vancouver promotes the city as a gay-friendly place to visit, with the largest gay population in Western Canada and the host city for the North American Outgames in July. Since the trip began last week, Clark and Bell have highlighted the signing of an agreement with Sichuan Airlines to begin three flights a week to Vancouver starting next year

sion in China Wednesday with the announcement of a $1.36 billion in investments by Chinese companies to develop two new coal mines in northeast B.C. One project is the Gething coal property 25 kilometres south of Hudson’s Hope, which has been explored since 1971. The recent resurgence of coal mining in the Peace River region has so far been open-pit operations, with two small mines opened in 2004 and two more in 2006, but the rising price of metallurgical coal has increased interest in underground mining. Three Chinese companies formed a partnership called the Canadian Kailuan Dehua Mines Co. Ltd. to develop the Gething mine. The partnership announced an investment of $860 million, and estimates the mine can produce two million tonnes of washed coal per year for more than 30 years. Christy Clark In a conference call with reporters from Beijing Wednesday, Clark said the second project is also in the Peace region, but investors have not yet announced the exact location. Another group of Chinese companies has announced it will invest $500 million in that mine. The Gething project applied for B.C. environmental assessment in 2006 and also faces First Nations and community consultation. The project application described alternatives for bringing the coal out from the mine site near the W.A.C. Bennett Dam, using trucks on forest service roads or barges down Williston reservoir to connect to highways and the CN rail line. Jobs, Tourism and Innovation Minister Pat Bell first announced the Chinese investments in March. The investors estimate the Gething project will create 773 long-term direct jobs. Clark said she spoke with Chinese company executives about the major investments office being set up by the B.C. government to speed up approvals for projects like the mines.

North Delta will play twice next weekend, visiting the 3-13-0-0 Ridge Meadows Flames Friday night, before hosting the 6-6-2-2 Grandview Steelers Saturday at 6:45 p.m. at the Sungod Arena. ■ Two Surrey residents are tied for the PIJHL scoring lead, each with 34 points in 16 games played. Thomas Hardy, a 19-year-old
forward with the Aldergrove Kodiaks, has scored 16 goals and assisted on 18 others. Justin Rai, a 17-year-old rookie forward with the league-leading Richmond Sockeyes, has 14 goals and 20 helpers. The two snipers have a seven-point lead on Spencer Traher of the Delta Ice Hawks, who has tallied 13 goals and assisted on 14 others.

led the charge Friday, registering a seasonhigh five assists for the Eagles, who were playing without forwards Michael Stenerson and Brandon Morley, both of whom were playing for Canada West at the World Junior A Hockey Challenge in Langley. There was very little downtime through the first 40 minutes of Friday’s game, with the team’s combining for six goals in each of the first two periods. The score was tied 3-3 after the opening frame – Eagles’ affiliate player Kevan Kilistoff, defenceman Linden Saip and Charles Orzetti scored for the home team – and Surrey tacked on four more in the second from Ben Greiner, Steve Koshey, Brandon Scholten and Saip. Robert Lindores scored the only goal in a much calmer third period. The middle frame also included a parade to the penalty box; the team’s combined for 30 minutes in minor penalties – including three unsportsmanlike conduct calls – and four 10-minute misconducts, three of which came after the horn to end the period. In addition to Morley’s five assists and Saip’s two-goal effort, other Eagles to record multiple points on the night were Orzetti , who had one goal and one assist, and Koshey, who had two helpers to go with his secondperiod goal. Andrew Hunt was between the pipes for Surrey, stopping 25 shots. Sunday afternoon, the Eagles fell behind 2-1 after 20 minutes to Cowichan, with only Colton Mackie, shorthanded, able to beat Capitals’ goalkeeper Brady Rouleau. Cowichan added one goal in the second, from Jacob Charles, and a power-play marker off the stick of Matt Brown in the third period to ice the game for the visitors. The Eagles are on home ice twice this weekend, playing Friday against the Vernon Vipers and Saturday against the Alberni Valley Bulldogs.

West wins WJAC FACES SAMENIDA Canada World Junior A challenge concludes in Langley off
“What I like most about Amenida is the people. They know what they are doing, keep everything tidy and clean and they’re kind and thoughtful. The area is really good for walking alone, with a small dog or nice lady. The food is great with generous portions, and it’s very tasty. I have no problem recommending Amenida to anyone, and the price appeals to me.” Ron Colclough
by Gary Ahuja THE BEST of the West was too
much for the beasts of the East. Carson Cooper and Aaron Hadley scored two minutes apart early in the third period to break open a one-goal hockey game en route to a 4-2 Canada West victory over Canada East in the gold medal game at the World Junior A Hockey Challenge (WJAC) at the Langley Events Centre on Sunday. Three Surrey natives – 17-year-old defenceman Reece Willcox of the Merritt Centennials, 18-year-old forward Michael Stenerson of the Surrey
Eagles, and 17-year-old forward Jujhar Khaira of the Prince George Spruce Kings – were on the Canada West roster. After a scoreless first period, Evan Richardson opened the scoring 1:14 into the second. Kerfoot doubled the lead nearly nine minutes later, before Canada East’s Michael Neville got them on the board. But Cooper and Hadley scored in the first 2:33 of the third to give Canada West a lead they would not relinquish. Daniel Milne did pull Canada East to within a pair when he scored with 5:24 left but that would be the last puck to get
past Canada West goaltender Sean Maguire. Maguire stopped 22 of 24 shots while his counterpart, Adrian Ignagni stopped 14 of 18. The gold medal was the third won by Canada West in the sixyear history of the tournament. All three have come at the expense of Canada East. West topped East 4-3 at the inaugural WJAC in Yorkton, Sask., in 2006 before winning by a 4-1 score in Trail one year later. In the bronze medal game on Saturday, it was the United States blanking Sweden 5-0. Earlier in the day, Russia edged the Czech Republic 3-2 to place fifth.

VOTE ON NOVEMBER 19
Voting is a privilege. As a citizen, you get to choose who will govern the City for the next three years. Make an informed decision. The City’s website (http://www.surrey.ca/8935. aspx) gives you a snap shot of all the candidates running for of¿ce: Mayor, Council and School Board. Many of the candidates also have their own website and you can follow a lot of them on Twitter and Facebook. Our community newspapers have run articles on who is running and what they plan to do if elected. There have been a number of all candidates meetings which gave you the opportunity to hear them in person. Make your decision and vote. If you like the way things have been going, get out and vote. If you don’t like the way things have been going, get out and vote. Don’t assume that because a poll says that your favourite candidate is out in front that they don’t need your vote, they do. Ultimately, the only poll that matters is the one on election day. How would you feel if a candidate you support loses by a vote? Running for of¿ce is not an easy decision. Although some people think that some candidates have ulterior motives, most candidates genuinely care about the City of Surrey and with their families, make the decision to put their name forward. They work hard to get elected and will work even harder once they are elected. Being a Civic Politician isn’t a Monday to Friday, 9-5 job. We applaud all the candidates who are standing for election. So inform yourself. Who has the best vision for the City as a whole? Who has the experience and leadership capabilities to represent Surrey at the Provincial and Federal levels to insure we get our fair share of the infrastructure dollars? Who understands the complex issues of a growing City that will soon be the largest City in BC? Now do your part. Vote on Saturday, November 19.

CENTRAL CITY BIG RIGS FOR KIDS Don’t miss the lighted trucks on Sunday, December 4 as they wind their way through the City of Surrey to end at Old Yale Road, north of Holland Park .
The trucks are expected to arrive at Holland Park between 6:45-7 pm. There will be entertainment, face painting and a North Surrey Lions Barbecue.
“It’s amazing,” says Bonnie Burnside, a member of the Lighted Truck Parade organizing committee. “The truckers put hours and hours of effort into decorating their trucks and it definitely shows. Last year, hundreds of spectators were able to wander through the trucks once they parked and admire them close up.”
The proceeds from the barbecues will be split between the Surrey Christmas Bureau and the Surrey Food Bank.
This year, the lighted trucks will lead the Cloverdale Santa Claus Parade starting at 5pm. Once they complete the Santa Parade route, they will proceed to Number 10 Highway, past Panorama Village to King George Boulevard. From King George and Number 10 Highway, they proceed North, through Newton to Old Yale Road where they will park along the North Side of Holland Park, south of Central City Shopping Centre.
“The truckers are very supportive of these two charities,” says Burnside. “They are hoping that when people come out and view the trucks, they will make a donation to support the good work that the Food Bank and the Christmas Bureau do.”
A viewing site, complete with a barbecue by M & M Meats will be set up in Newton near 73 & King George so neighbours can walk over and enjoy the parade as it passes by.
Volunteers from the Surrey Food Bank and Surrey Christmas Bureau will be on hand to collect donations of cash, food and toys earmarked for these two local organizations.
A number of the truckers that take part in the Surrey event, come over from Vancouver Island after participating in the well established Victoria Parade the previous evening. Big Rigs for Kids, Lighted Truck Parade is sponsored by Central City, the City of Surrey, BC Ferries, Pro Trucker Magazine and the Downtown Surrey Business Improvement Association with help from the RCMP.

Arthritis forum today
enter online for your cha ance to
Autoimmune disease has a big impact Black Press FOR PEOPLE such as Cheryl Johnson of Surrey, who has been living with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) now for three years, the impact is profound. Once an active account executive in the print industry, Johnson was forced from her job within a year of developing RA. “Not being able to work has been the biggest issue for me... I loved my job,� says Johnson. “The unpredictable nature of the disease makes it difficult and the limitations it has put on my everyday life has been frustrating.� Johnson has trouble opening jars, reaching for things and even simple things like long walks have become almost impossible for her. A born fighter, she decided the disease was not going to take her life from her so she decided to fight back. With a positive “can do� attitude she began by attending a forum being run by The Arthritis
and avoid severe damage to your joints,� says Lacaille. “Most people with RA can lead active and productive lives with the help of the right information, medication, surgery (in some cases), exercise, rest and joint protection techniques. “This forum is a great opportunity for people living with this painful disease to learn valuable information - whether they have been newly diagnosed or have been living with the disease for some time.� Rheumatoid arthritis is a type of inflammatory arthritis and autoimmune disease (where the body’s immune system begins to attack healthy tissues). In this case, the joints are the target of the immune attack causing swelling, pain and often joint damage. Understanding Inflammatory Arthritis Forum takes place tonight from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Sheraton Vancouver Guilford Hotel, 15269 104 Ave. To register, call 604-714-5550 or 1-866-4147766.

Society. “I wanted to learn as much as I could ab Rheumatoid Arthritis is one of the most devastating diseases when it comes to disabling people in the home and the workforce. It has huge implications for the economy and health care system. Tonight (Nov. 15), The Arthritis Society is running a free public forum in Surrey to help people understand their RA and give them practical information on what they can do to limit the effect of this debilitating disease. Led by rheumatologist Dr. Diane Lacaille, the forum will benefit people living with ankylosing spondylitis, rheumatoid, psoriatic arthritis and other types of auto-immune arthritis. Participants will learn about current treatment options, the value and benefits of physical activity as well as ways to protect their joints. “There is no cure for RA, but when you are diagnosed early and start the right treatment, you can take control of your disease

Focus on children’s emotional growth Reach Child and Youth Development Society workshop to help parents with coping strategies Black Press EXPERTS agree that emo-
tional development in children influence their future development. As well, a growing number of educators recognize that emotional learning plays a strong role in academic outcomes. On Nov. 23, Reach Child and Youth Development Society is offering a parenting workshop called Emotional Regulation that will give parents the opportunity to discover some effective
strategies for supporting their child’s emotional development from early childhood into the teen years. In the workshop, parents will learn ways they can help their child to understand their emotions and will walk away with some simple strategies to teach their child how they can control their bodies and their feelings. Workshop facilitator Pam Collins has an extensive background in early child development and special needs, and has been offering the workshop for several
years in the community. “Learning how to regulate emotions helps all children to have positive social and educational experiences,” says Collins. “Many children, especially those with special needs or who are ‘different’ thinkers, often have difficulty understanding and regulating their emotions. “By understanding how our children perceive the world, and how their senses take in information we can help them understand what is happening in their own
