Woman guilty of planning hit on exhusband Surrey’s Liza Belcourt conspired with two men to kill former spouse by Sheila Reynolds A SURREY woman charged with plotting to kill her ex-husband with the help of two hit men has been found guilty by a Vancouver Supreme Court jury. Liza Joylene Belcourt was found guilty of one count of conspiracy to commit murder. Her co-accused, the men she hired – Port Coquitlam’s Jordan Joseph Doiron and Langley’s David Dean Laidlaw – were also found guilty of the same charge. After a fiveweek trial, the jury came down Liza Belcourt with the guilty verdict Thursday, after less than a day of deliberations. Belcourt’s estranged common-law husband Richard Noniewicz was shocked when he learned from police in 2009 that Belcourt was planning to have him killed. He said he was in a common-law relationship with Belcourt for two-and-a-half years, but had been separated for five years. The pair have a son together and were in the midst of a custody battle. A sentencing date for Belcourt will be set Nov. 30.

Spending watchdog to be based in Surrey

Province announces creation of municipal auditor general to keep tabs on cities by Tom Fletcher THE B.C. government has moved to cre-

ate a local government auditor general, with a $2.6-million annual budget and a dozen staff to be located in Surrey. Community, Sport and Cultural Development Minister Ida Chong said the target is to have the office up and running by late spring. Its purpose is to do value-for-money audits on spending by municipalities and regional districts,

as well as utilities or corporations they control. Announcing the office location in Surrey on Thursday, Premier Christy Clark emphasized that the cost will be covered by the B.C. government. There will be “soft costs” for local governments participating in audit programs, but the office will find efficiencies that save them money, she said. See DIX / Page 4

Ban drives exotic pet showmen snaky Critics are challenging B.C.’s rules in court by Jeff Nagel OPPONENTS OF B.C.’s regulations that ban the exhibition of many reptiles and other restricted exotic pets are challenging the province in court. Jozef Demcak and his wife Bibiana say they’ve lost income because they are now barred from taking their six pythons on a touring roadshow that was their main business for decades. Demcak claims the shows were educational and the crackdown by the province has rendered the couple virtually homeless. “We lost everything,” the former school teacher said. “All our savings and livelihood. It has been horror upon horror.” The former Richmond residents now live in a trailer at CinemaZoo in South Surrey, where their snakes and a monitor lizard are kept under permit but can’t be exhibited. The Demcaks says nobody can visit them lest they see the forbidden reptiles. Their challenge of the Controlled Alien Species Regulation – which covers dangerous animals from crocodiles to big cats – is being heard by B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster over the next two weeks. Mike Hopcraft, an Aldergrove reptile rescuer who supported his now-closed Abbotsford operation with shows and presentations, is backing the Demcaks. They contend the changes were made illegally, with insufficient consultation and without actual legislation. “We’re hoping the whole thing gets overturned,” Hopcraft said. “We all agree there should be some sort of regulations in place to limit who can get these animals. But when you put a ban on education and rescue, it goes too far.” Only a tiny fraction of exotic pet owners in B.C. have obtained the required permits to keep their Jozef Demcak restricted or prohibited animals. New imports are banned. “All they’ve done is create a huge underground market,” Hopcraft said. “There are so many people in B.C. who have these animals but don’t have permits for them.” Hopcraft questioned why the province allows “harmless” boa constrictors to be legally kept until they grow to three metres long, at which point they are banned with other big snakes like anacondas. “If you’re going to ban something, ban it,” he said. “Don’t allow people to breed something if it’s eventually going to become illegal.” The province cited public safety when it outlawed dangerous exotic animals, after repeated escapes of snakes from homes and the 2007 death of a woman killed by her boyfriend’s pet tiger at Bridge Lake. Some banned species – like primates – are of concern over their potential to spread disease. Hopcraft initially tried to get zoo accreditation for his reptile rescue centre but gave up because of the cost. Most of his reptiles were sent to Ontario, while a few ended up at the Greater Vancouver Zoo.

Underfunded courts near ‘tipping point’ B.C.’s chief judge warns of threat to justice system with upcoming ‘cuts to the bone’ by Jeff Nagel THE TOP judge of the B.C. Supreme Court has issued a rare warn-

ing that the province’s justice system is critically threatened by years of government underfunding. Chief Justice Robert Bauman, in a blunt Nov. 19 speech to B.C. lawyers in Las Vegas, used analogies like “going over the cliff in slow motion” to describe the danger looming from court congestion. “Bring this issue to the attention of our fellow citizens and take whatever steps you can to defend and protect our judicial system,” he urged legal colleagues. “Once our institution is critically wounded it will never be the same again.” Bauman likened court underfunding in B.C. to the forces of erosion, adding it is steadily approaching a “tipping point when that gradual, insidious process of incremental damage yields its dramatic finish – the structure is diminished and collapses.” By next year, the court services budget will have been cut more than 10 per cent since 2008, with overall staff down about 15 per cent. Bauman said there is a limit to the system’s ability to cope with restraint, adding the cutbacks that are yet to come are “cuts to the bone.” Numerous accused criminals, often impaired drivers, have already walked free because of judicial stays of proceeding after

“Once our institution is critically wounded it will never be the same again.” Robert Bauman

the case took too long to go to trial due to court delays. The shortage of provincial court judges – 17 fewer now hear cases than in 2005 – have led to criminal case backlogs so long, he noted, even an accused cocaine trafficker had his case quashed this fall after a 42-month delay. Court sometimes can’t proceed because no clerk is available, Bauman noted. A shortage of court registry staff has delayed the processing of court orders by up to six months in some cities, he said. And he called the reduction in sheriffs earlier this year – since rescinded – a “glaring example” of court underfunding that led to criminal trial delays and never should have happened. Legal aid funding has dropped to “almost nil” in civil and family cases, Bauman added, even though close to 20 per cent of litigants are self-represented. “Without additional resourcing, the court’s traditional and essential role in maintaining societal order is being eroded and degraded,” Bauman warned. NDP leader Adrian Dix called it a “very significant” warning on the state of the courts. “When you have people like serious cocaine dealers who are not being tried because of court delays, that’s a serious problem for confidence in our justice system.” jnagel@surreyleader.com

Senior killed in hit and run

Suspect released; no charges laid by Kevin Diakiw AN ELDERLY woman is dead after

being struck by a car in Guildford on the weekend. On Friday night at about 9 p.m., an 82-year-old woman was crossing the street at 105 Avenue and 152 Street, when she was hit by a 2000 Honda Civic that subsequently fled.

A 30-year-old female witness from Coquitlam followed the vehicle across the Port Mann Bridge. The 44-year-old suspected driver from Port Coquitlam was apprehended by Coquitlam RCMP. The suspect has since been released and no charges are being laid at this point. Surrey RCMP is asking witnesses to contact them at 604-599-0502.

Clark also addressed the concern expressed at the recent municipal leaders’ conference that the new office will simply add bureaucracy. “When I talk about creating jobs, I mean private sector jobs, not more government jobs,” Clark said. “But I think this is a unique position in that it’s going to mean we see some savings at the provincial government level.” Chong tabled the legislation for the new office Thursday afternoon, on the last day of the fall legislative session. It will be debated when the sitting resumes in February. Chambers of commerce and the Canadian Federation of IndepenChristy Clark dent Business (CFIB) applauded the announcement. The CFIB tracks municipal spending, and its review of 2010 budgets found inflation-adjusted spending is growing nearly four times as fast as population in B.C. “Our members continue to express concern over

the unsustainable rate of growth in municipal spending, which has consistently eclipsed both wage and economic growth,” said Bruce Carter, CEO of the Greater Victoria Chamber of Commerce. NDP leader Adrian Dix said Thursday he has no objection to the concept of a local government auditor, but he questions the spending of money now, when court cases are being dismissed due to overload-related delays. Dix said Clark is following through on municipal accountability, while the B.C. Liberal government spends “billions on stadium roofs and smart meters.” Clark said the federal and provincial auditors create discomfort for governments, but their findings are non-binding. Adrian Dix “What we’ve discovered, and what the federal government has discovered, is that auditors general have a huge moral suasion, because they are thorough, they are experts and they are third parties,” Clark said. tﬂetcher@blackpress.ca

Homeless ushered in to SAVE BIG! extreme weather beds Winter conditions prompt opening of more spaces by Jeff Nagel EXTREME WEATHER shelter beds opened for home-

less people across Metro Vancouver last weekend in response to the season’s first blast of frigid winter conditions. Support agencies say the temporary opening for up to four days of 340 beds at 15 sites will be repeated or expanded as necessary. “We’ll reopen as needed through the winter,” said James Pratt, the extreme weather response coordinator for Metro Vancouver. “Our objective is to make sure nobody is turned away for lack of space this winter.” Local cities activate extreme weather response plans and shelter sites open extra spaces when weather is considered severe enough to pose a substantial threat to the health and safety of street homeless. Up to 635 additional spaces can be opened – typically mats and blankets on a floor in a church, community centre or other shelter site. Vancouver has the most extreme spaces, but there are also 140 in Surrey, 98 in Abbotsford, 60 in Burnaby, 50 in New Westminster, 30 in Langley and 22 in Richmond. Pratt said there was “reasonable uptake” in the initial extreme weather opening of the season. “We’re grateful for all the people on the front lines who spread the word to people on the street or in the bushes so they can come in and have a warm place to sleep.” The Tri-Cities was the only area where extreme beds didn’t open, he said, because a 30-bed cold wet weather program open throughout the winter there still has plenty of space. There are also 30 seasonal cold wet weather beds

now open in Maple Ridge and 44 in Vancouver, for a total of just over 100 across the region. That’s down this year because 160 seasonal beds were eliminated in Vancouver, as a result of the opening of more supportive housing for the homeless in that city. Although some advocates have protested the decrease, the provincial government says it’s more cost-effective to fund permanent housing than funding winter beds. The seasonal and extreme beds are separate from the more than 1,409 year-round permanent spaces for the homeless across Metro Vancouver. There are more than 1,100 year-round spaces in Vancouver, 117 in Surrey, 53 in New Westminster, 49 on the North Shore, 30 each in Maple Ridge and the Tri Cities, as well as 10 in Richmond. The province contributes more than $20 million a year to run them. The government has also invested more than $150 million converting old skid row hotels to affordable housing and other supportive housing projects to provide hundreds of new units to house the homeless. Pratt urged people interested in supporting the homeless to help local shelters through donations of cash and warm clothing. For a list of shelters in each city, see the Greater Vancouver Shelter Strategy website at http://www. gvss.ca. More than 2,600 people were counted as homeless across Metro Vancouver earlier this year, more than half of them in shelters. The regional homeless count found the number of unsheltered street homeless was way down from three years ago – shift credited to the province’s housing strategy.

DRIVER USER FEES RAESIDE

Transit report puts cart before horse

ehicle levies, road pricing, distance-based car insurance... sound familiar? The notion of dinging drivers with added fees to help fund transit improvements has reared its fearsome head again, this time in the form of a report commissioned by the Downtown Surrey Business Improvement Association. The report, titled Leveling the Playing Field, argues road expansion capital costs tend to be under-scrutinized compared to transit spending, and driving in general enjoys “perverse subsidies” that must be overcome. The report offers a lot of great ideas for easing traffic gridlock in Surrey, including creating a network of HOV lanes for buses and ride-sharers; utilizing existing rail lines to connect town centres; improved cycling routes; and this herculean task that is staggering in its apparent simplicity: “Make public transit faster than driving.” The report’s means for all this? Two words: User fees. That means transportation levies to the tune of $65 to $165 per vehicle and paying more to travel long distances (say, from Surrey to Richmond for the daily commute). This taxpayer pile-on is patently unfair – and backwards. If the intent of motorist user fees is to encourage increased transit use, shouldn’t the transit alternative actually exist before wielding the big stick? TransLink’s South of Fraser area transit plan (note that key word – plan) calls for an extra 600 buses to be added here. Eventually. TransLink is also preparing to add a B-Line express bus service on King George Boulevard – in the next year. And there’s talk of SkyTrain extensions... some day. In other words, if you’re one of the people who chose Surrey for its lower housing costs and business-friendly climate, but still work in a neighbouring community and find yourself with no choice but to drive because there is no realistic alternative, tough luck. Fork over more dough and sit tight waiting for the improvements. We’ve been patient enough. Surrey residents contribute $160 million a year to TransLink through gas tax, property tax and transit fares, but TransLink only spends $135 to $146 million on transit service here, or about 90 to 95 cents out of every dollar it collects in Surrey. Punishing South-of-Fraser residents for their lack of transit participation when there is little transit in which to participate is discriminatory and just plain wrong.

ne of the last exchanges in the B.C. legislature’s fall session was over the state of the court system. Drug dealers are walking free, NDP leader Adrian Dix reminded Public Safety Minister Shirley Bond in the final question period. Dix referred to a Prince George case this fall where a convicted cocaine dealer racked up more trafficking charges while he was on trial, and then was released because he couldn’t be tried in a timely fashion. The NDP was picking up on an unusually political speech last week by B.C. Supreme Court Chief Justice Robert Bauman. Speaking to the annual B.C. judges’ conference in Las Vegas, Bauman warned that funding cuts have the B.C. court system “going over a cliff in slow motion.” The cuts are real. By next year, court service budgets are expected to be down 10 per cent since 2008, and staff down 15 per cent. The provincial court is down 17 judges from 2005. There aren’t enough clerks.

Of course this is being challenged as an infringement of the right to go to court and try various drunk-driving defences. A judge will soon decide if the hazards of impaired driving justify such an infringement. Justice Bauman acknowledges that courts have to clean up procedures too. Set aside the baseless conspiracy theories around the Dave Basi-Bobby Virk saga, and you have two small-time crooks whose lawyers were allowed to spin the case out for seven years in a tangle of evidence disclosure demands. As the legislature adjourned, Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson joined previous mayors, from Conservative Party member Sam Sullivan to Mike Harcourt, in calling for marijuana to be legalized and regulated. Not on my watch, replied Prime Minister Stephen Harper. So instead, we’re getting de facto legalization of crack cocaine.

Surrey/North Delta Leader 7

The best Welcome back to Surrey, Christmas have been elected CIVIC POLITICS never has, and never will be easy. I for one applaud Mayor Dianne Watts and her elected council on the results of the Surrey election. To the people who did not vote, or found the line-up too long for their liking, or were taken aback by the fact we have now actually entered the 21st century and have more modern ways of voting, they cannot negate that the majority of the citizens of Surrey, who put the time and effort to cast their ballot, have soundly spoken. Yes, there are many issues regarding Surrey’s future. We (the voters), in whatever percentage, have spoken, and have elected the very best people to move Surrey forward.

THIS IS a happy message. This morning as I came out from the pool at the North Surrey Recreation Centre, I noticed a Christmas tree had been put up in the lobby and another smaller one to be put up in the front desk area. I was immediately happy at the return of sanity to the City of Surrey. For many years now, Christmas trees were banned by (due to political correctness gone amok.) They tried those awful look-

ing aluminium things, which were worse than nothing at all. I could never understand that at the slightest objection raised even by a single person, the authorities were quick to dismiss the long-term traditions. While at the same time, the society at large is eager to take part in various ethnic celebrations. I hope the city will resume marking the Christmas season according to this

country’s traditions. I am under no illusion that this practice may be challenged, even by certain factions of Christianity, but the city should not shirk away so easily. It is appropriate to keep in mind that there are a lot of non-Christians who mark, though not celebrate, the Christmas season.

Dangerous Newton intersection

Robert Gary Parkes, Port Kells

Canada’s role has changed I AM trying to make sense of the

very un-Canadian military pageantry which took place in Ottawa last week. Members of our military who took part in NATO’s activities in Libya were present to receive public accolades. Don’t get me wrong – I am very grateful to our military for all that they do and represent for our freedoms. However, in my mind their primary role is to defend our borders, not to extend the geo-political aspirations of parties which I’ll leave unnamed. Last week we learned it was actually a Canadian in charge of NATO’s bombing campaign in Libya. Rather than viewing this with pride, I am saddened at Canada’s changing role in world affairs. How did we get here from the peacekeeping role Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson created for us? It earned him the Nobel Peace Prize in 1957 and brought Canadians a lot of international esteem. Now, that’s something to be proud of. C.A. Archibald, Surrey

A letter writer wants to see safety improvements at the intersection of 72 Avenue and124 Street.

I WANT to bring it to your attention that the intersection of 72 Avenue at 124 Street is becoming dangerous for children and their parents. This is a busy intersection that is close to Surrey Muslim School, Sowing Seeds preschool, and Khalsa School. In the morning, when parents walk their children to school, the drivers make left and right turns while the pedestrians are crossing the road, without giving them enough time to peacefully cross the road. This situation becomes worse in poor weather conditions. There has been an accident involving a child in the past and we do not want it to happen again. 1. There should be a left-turn signal for all four directions of the intersection. 2. There is a need for a flag person to man the intersection in the morning, noon (pre-school) and afternoon. Action is needed to resolve this issue and update the crosswalks with flashy signals and speed bumps to deter the hasty drivers on 124 Street starting from 68 Avenue up to 78 Avenue. I urge the school administrations to share their concerns and follow-up as well and if there are any parents who want to share their personal experiences please do so, so that we are able to present the urgent need for some action from the city.

TransLink not living, or rolling, in the real world TRANSLINK SHOULD take a page

from the real world and tighten its own belt. It seems to think that money is free for the asking and as past practice shows, I guess it is. TransLink pays all its employees very well and with excellent benefits in today’s financially strapped world. I, unfortunately, work for an airline and make less now in pay and benefits than I did 20 years ago. This was not by choice, but by market demand and survival. TransLink couldn’t survive on its own without the constant, ever-increasing handouts from the taxpayers. Don’t get me wrong, a good transit system is essential; unfortunately ours comes up very short. My wife takes the SkyTrain to work every day,

but still needs her car to get to and from the station and has to pay for parking on top of that. I work at YVR and finish at 1 a.m. and have no choice but to drive for lack of service. Service isn’t really a good description as it takes over two hours to get from my home in east Newton

Business as usual NOW THAT elections are over, a report commissioned by the Downtown Surrey Business Improvement Association recommends getting more money from car drivers – $65 to $165 in vehicle levies. No mention of a break for seniors or the people who just get by. Enough already. Raise the minimum wage to $20 per hour. Then the business community can cry some more. All they want is to take, take, take. Better yet, tax business 10 per cent more and let them start paying their share. Ron Eichhorst, Surrey

can’t keep funding TransLink’s inflated operating budget for their wage and benefit packages with no improvements in service and none planned. Surrey, Langley and the rest of the Fraser Valley is where the growth is and will continue to be, but we don’t all need or just want to have access to downtown Vancouver. So forget vehicle levies and distance-based insurance when there are no alternatives. It is already very expensive to own and operate a vehicle; most families have two vehicles by necessity. In a perfect world we would all live within walking, cycling or public transit distance to get to work and play, but ours is a far from perfect world. A. Andersen, Surrey

THREE YEARS ago, five officers were called to a domestic dispute in Surrey to find a man had shot two family members. It was Aug. 19, 2008 when the officers arrived at the Surrey home to find the man had used a high-powered rifle on his wife and daughter and was in the midst of a fight with his son. The officers were able to secure the house and arrested 54-year-old Harpaljit Sandhu, who later pleaded guilty to killing his wife and seriously injuring his daughter. He was sentenced to just over nine years in prison a year later. The officers, Sgt. Mark Baxter, Cpl. Chris Robinson, Cpl. William Turner, Const. Atish Prasad and an unnamed officer received Awards of Valour on Nov. 17 at the the 31st annual Police Honours Night. Receiving an Award of Meritorious Service was Cpl. Jonn Uzelac, who, while off-duty, rescued a suicidal male attempting to jump off the Pattullo Bridge. Other award winners can be found at this link: http://bit.ly/uIlBjI newsroom@surreyleader.com

SCHOOL BRIEFS

DAYS

Farewell to trustee by Sheila Reynolds THE SURREY Board of Education said farewell to Trustee Ijaz Chatha at Thursday evening’s public board meeting. Chairperson Laurae McNally commended Chatha, who was elected in 2008, for his contributions. “He never hesitated to take on a cause” or speak up for his constituents, said McNally. While all five of the Surrey First Education incumbent trustees were re-elected on Nov. 19, Chatha, running with Surrey Civic Coalition (SCC), lost his seat. Replacing him is Charlene Dobie, a newcomer who also ran under the SCC banner. The inaugural meeting for the new board is Dec. 8.

like regular board meetings to start a bit earlier. While meetings usually begin at 7:30 p.m., she’s suggesting they be changed to 7 p.m. In-camera (not open to the public) meetings are held prior to the public meetings. Glass suggested that with the new District Education Centre

complete, there is no need to allow for travel time between separate locations. Because the start time is stated in board policy, the suggestion was referred to the policy review committee and will then be brought back to the board for a vote.

Public answers to public questions AT HIS final meeting as a Surrey

school trustee, Ijaz Chatha requested that questions asked by the public at the end of board meetings also be answered publicly. The current protocol is that community members ask their questions and submit them in writing, and the board provides answers, also in writing, subsequent to the meetings. Chatha argued the responses should be read publicly because, like the questions, they “may be helpful, constructive, or express concerns reflective of the larger community.” The matter was referred to the policy review committee and will be brought back to the board for discussion at a later date. sreynolds@surreyleader.com

Surrey teachers rally Hope to draw attention to ongoing labour dispute *Some restrictions apply. Ceilings and trim are extra. Based on room size up to 120 sq.ft. Ask for details.

by Sheila Reynolds A GROUP of teachers

from Surrey’s T.E. Scott Elementary braved the cold wind and blowing rain Thursday afternoon, waving paper signs reading BC Kids Just Can’t Wait and Teachers Want a Fair Deal. The group of about a dozen, on the suggestion of their union, the Surrey Teachers’ Association (STA), were hoping to draw attention to the fact a contract has still not been negotiated with the province. “We feel as a group we need to get out there and be more visible,” said Kathy Jickling, a Grade 6/7 teacher at T.E. Scott. “We feel as though our message is not being heard at all.” Teachers across B.C. began job action at the beginning of the school year in September, refusing to perform administrative duties such as meeting with principals, supervising playgrounds and writing report cards. The teachers outside T.E. Scott Elementary were also upset that the Surrey Board of Education won’t engage in any local discussions, or bring Surrey concerns to the provincial level. “You need to be a voice for education in Surrey, for kids in Surrey” said Grade 2 teacher Marna Branigan, waving at several drivers who honked in support as they drove by. Earlier in the week, the STA announced there were three “actions” planned this week and next aimed at drawing attention to teacher bargaining. The first was for teachers at all Surrey and White Rock schools to “rally around our schools” on Thursday afternoon. On Monday teachers also planned a “mass marking” event in local malls instead of having a staff meeting on Monday (Nov. 28). Sit-ins were to take place at Guildford Town Centre, Semiahmoo Shopping Centre and Central City Library. And teachers are being asked to attend the Surrey Board of Education meeting Dec. 8 – the inaugural meeting of the newly elected board – in hopes of garnering some attention. “We want to make sure the new school

Tough penalties have helped reduce fatalities by 40% by Tom Fletcher

impaired driving penalties have helped reduce deaths by 40 per cent in the first year since they came into effect, according to preliminary figures released by the provincial government Wednesday. There were 68 alcohol-related deaths across B.C. in the 12 months that ended Sept. 30, compared with 113 deaths in the previous 12 months. Premier Christy Clark and Public Safety Minister Shirley Bond marked the occasion with a ceremony in front of the legislature, with police officers

Clark announced a $40,000 contribution to establish “Alexa’s Bus,” a mobile road safety unit that will focus on impaired driving education and enforcement. Clark said the statistics validate a controversial decision by the government to implement Canada’s toughest roadside penalties for blood alcohol readings as low as 0.05 per cent. A blood alcohol reading in the “warn” range between 0.05 and 0.08 per cent can result

For roadside readings of 0.08 per cent or higher, police have the option of imposing a 90-day driving ban, a $500 fine and impounding the vehicle for 30 days. That suspension can cost a driver $3,750, including $700 for towing and storage and $1,420 to take a mandatory “responsible driver” course. “For the first time in a decade, we’ve seen a real drop in the deaths associated with impaired driving, and 45 more people made it home safe in the past year as a result,” Bond said. tﬂetcher@blackpress.ca

The app would provide the same information on the go with a mobile phone, except the GPS function of the iPhone will save the step of entering an address or city, plotting the nearest depots directly on a map.

Become a Snow Angel Volunteers needed to help their neighbours when winter hits Black Press LAST WINTER, the Corporation of Delta

initiated Snow Angels, a volunteer-based program where people who need their sidewalks and driveways shovelled are matched with people who enjoy helping out their neighbours. It is a non-emergency service available for Delta residents 65 years and older or those who have physical limitations and don’t have others in their household who are able to assist. The Snow Angels program maintains a database to match Snow Angels with clients. Snow Angel volunteers are again being recruited in anticipation of snowfalls this winter.

Citizens who would like to volunteer, and have their own transportation and shovel, are asked to contact Delta’s volunteer coordinator or download and submit a Volunteer Application Form from the Corporation of Delta website. Applications can also be picked up at McKee, Kennedy or any other recreation centre in Delta. Volunteers will be required to obtain a Criminal Record Check through the Delta Police department before beginning service. This process is free and quick. People who would like to access the services of a Snow Angel should contact the Seniors Recreation Centre in their

area of Delta as soon as possible to ensure inclusion in the program before the snow falls. The Snow Angels service applies only to single family homes, as apartments and townhouse snow clearing is the responsibility of the landlord or strata council. Kennedy Seniors’ Recreation Centre is located at 11760 88 Ave. and can be reached by calling 604-596-8722. Delta’s volunteer coordinator can be contacted at volunteers@corp.delta.bc.ca or by phone at 604-946-3288. Volunteer application forms for this program can be accessed at http://www. corp.delta.bc.ca/EN/main/muni cipal/323/27061/snowangels.html

Warmth in donating Realtors Care Blanket Drive runs until Dec. 5 Black Press WHAT STARTED as a compassionate offer of simple

warmth to those living on the streets in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside is now the largest, longestrunning charitable blanket and warm clothing collection in the region. Since 1995, more than 165,000 people have received clothing or a blanket from the annual Realtors Care Blanket Drive. The 17th annual drive, locally helped by the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board, will run until Dec. 5 across the Lower Mainland. Hundreds of real estate offices will act as drop-off depots and dozens of realtors will pick up, sort and deliver the donations. In Surrey, one of the key Blanket Drive recipients is NightShift Street Ministries. The eight-day blanket drive, which runs in every community from Whistler to Chilliwack, collects on average 4,300 bags of gently used blankets, sleeping bags, warm clothing and coats, in addition to new socks and underwear for men, women and children. Donations to the Realtors Care Blanket Drive stay within the communities in which they are donated, or if the volumes are too large, go to charities in greatest need in neighbouring communities.

Best in the nation FILE PHOTO

UBC Thunderbirds quarterback Billy Greene, pictured while running with the ball against the University of Alberta Golden Bears earlier this season, was named the most outstanding player in Canadian university football last week in Vancouver.

Holy Cross graduate wins Hec Crighton Award by Rick Kupchuk BILLY GREENE would have preferred to be on the

field Friday night, playing in the Vanier Cup final at B.C. Place. But two weeks after his University of British Columbia Thunderbirds (UBC) were eliminated from the CIS (Canadian Interuniversity Sports) football playoffs, the Surrey native was presented with the highest honour a CIS player could receive. Greene was named winner of the Hec Crighton Trophy, awarded annually to the best player in Canadian university football. Acadia Axemen quarterback Kyle Graves (Atlantic), Sherbrooke Vert et Or wide receiver Simon CharbonneauCampeau (Quebec) and McMaster Marauders (Ontario) wideout Michael DiCroce were also Billy Greene nominated. “It sounds amazing,” said Greene immediately after Thursday’s Gibson’s Finest CFL Player Awards at the Vancouver Convention Centre, part of Grey Cup Week. “I’ve done a lot of work with coach (Shawn) Olson for the past 18 months, since he’s been hired. He truly got me ready to be a quarterback in the CIS and I owe thanks to him for this award as

well as my teammates. “It’s a great feeling, I couldn’t have done it without them.” Perhaps his coach summed it up best. “This is as big as it gets,” Olson said. “It’s a huge honour and it’s something that I think every CIS player dreams about. Very few end up being nominated and even fewer have the honour of being able to say they’re a Hec Crighton winner.” In his fourth season at UBC, Greene led the Thunderbirds to one of the quickest turnarounds in the history of the program. After a 2-6 (wonlost) season a year ago, the T-Birds placed second in the Canada West league with a 6-2 record. They upended the Saskatchewan Huskies 27-22 in a semifinal contest, before losing 62-13 to the Calgary Dinos in the championship game. The win over the Huskies was the first postseason triumph by UBC since 1999. Greene set single-season school records with 20 touchdown passes and 2,558 passing yards, both totals leading the country. The six-foot, 220-pound graduate of Holy Cross High School also topped all CIS quarterbacks with 482 yards rushing. “I’m very happy for Billy, because he took a big step this off-season as far as the work that he put in,” said Olson, who is also a Surrey native. “It’s always good to see a guy rewarded for the amount of work he puts in and to see a player start to fulfill his potential.”

With Greene at the helm, the Thunderbirds offence ranked second in passing with an average of 326 yards per game, and fourth in overall offence with 471 yards per game. “I play the quarterback position like I would play running back or any other position,” said Greene “I play it as a football player. I don’t view myself as a quarterback, although obviously I am. But you can say I play like (Denver Broncos quarterback Tim) Tebow. I don’t slide, I run the ball. If I’m running the ball I’m a running back. If I’m dropping back, I’m a quarterback.” Greene is the third T-Bird to win the Hec Crighton Trophy, after running back Mark Nohra in 1997 and quarterback Jordan Gagner in 1987, and he recognizes its significance to UBC football. “For our program, this Shawn Olson is huge,” he said. “Anytime you can get exposure in the media or around town, it will help coach Olson with recruiting. “His job is to put a winner on the field, and I think this will help him do that for years to come.”

“It’s a huge honour and it’s something that I think every CIS player dreams about.”

Eagles salvage a split in Powell River BCHL team gets a win in overtime after a lopsided loss by Nick Greenizan STEVE KOSHEY’S win-

ning goal in doubleovertime Saturday salvaged a weekend split for the Surrey Eagles, who bounced back from a 7-1 road loss to the Powell River Kings the night before to win 4-3. “The best thing about that (7-1) loss on Friday was that we didn’t have too much time to sit and think about it – we had to to play them again the next night,” said Eagles coach Matt Erhart. “Sometimes, you lose like that and then have to sit on it for two weeks until you play them again.” The 1-1 (Won-lost) weekend leaves the Eagles in second place in the B.C. Hockey League’s Coastal Conference, three points back of the surging Cowichan Valley Capitals, who have lost just

one regulation game in the last 10. Surrey was scheduled to play a third game last week, Thursday in Port Alberni against the Bulldogs, but it was postponed because weather conditions cancelled a number of BC Ferries’ sailings, leaving the Eagles stuck on the mainland. The game will now be played Feb. 18. Friday in Powell River, the Kings jumped out to a 3-0 lead by the 3:24 mark of the second period, and it was 6-0 before Surrey got on the board with a Linden Saip power-play goal. It was the Kings’ power-play that did much of the damage, however, as the home team went 5-for-9 with the man advantage. “Powell River can be a real tough place to play, especially for the first time, which

was the case for a lot of our young guys,” Erhart said. “We just ran into a bit of a discipline problem and allowed them to have too many power plays. Some

“Five-on-ﬁve, we didn’t give them much, and we were in control...” Matt Erhart of the penalties were warranted… frustration just boiled over. “It was a bit of a wake-up call though, which isn’t always a

bad thing.” Powell River’s Evan Richardson paced the Kings’ attack with a one goal and four assists, while Craig Dalrymple had a fourpoint night. Two other Kings, Teagan Waugh and Matt Scarth, had three-point efforts. Eagles starter Andrew Hunt stopped 29 shots in the loss. The following night, back on home ice, the Eagles were a much better team. Brandon Morley had two goals to lead Surrey, while Ben Greiner also added a goal in the second period, which put the Eagles up 3-0 at the time. Powell River scored once more before the second intermission,

but the Eagles still lead 3-1 with 20 minutes remaining. “Brandon had a real good game for us,” Erhart said. In the third period, the Kings made it 3-2 on a power-play goal from Chris Williams, and the visitors tied the game in the final minute after pulling the goalie for the extra attacker. “Five-on-five, we didn’t give them much, and we were in control

of a 3-1 game most of the night, I thought,” Erhart said. “But they got a power-play goal and then managed to get one with the goalie pulled.” After one overtime period of four-on-four action solved nothing, the game moved to three-on-three; Koshey scored 3:29 into the period to give the home team the win. Eagles’ goalie Conor

Barrie stopped 26 shots to earn the victory, which was the backup netminders’ second of the year. “It was nice to see him get the win, since he doesn’t get the chance to play a whole lot for us,” said Erhart. “He played really well, and the guys played good in front of him.” The Eagles play tomorrow (Wednesday) on the road against the Langley Rivermen.
