Grow-op homes made public Nearly half of houses where pot was seized are in Surrey

by Kevin Diakiw SURREY IS reporting far more

pot grow-ops than other RCMPpoliced jurisdictions in B.C., which Mounties say is due in part to a dedicated team tackling the clandestine operations.

As part of a new program called the Marijuana Grow Initiative, police are making public all places where they seize marijuana grow operations.

The addresses of homes where marijuana grow-ops are found have been published on the RCMP website, and as of Friday (Sept. 23), 26 out of the 60 published are in Surrey.

The bulk of grow-ops were found in the northern edges of the city, with small clusters of them in Fraser Heights and Newton.

RCMP Cpl. Drew Grainger said the high number of homes posted from Surrey is due to a dedicated team of officers in the city targeting the operations.

He said making the areas availublic able to local residents raises public awareness about where the grow-ops have been found.

Warning issued after Clayton Heights Secondary student dies

Meningitis suspected in teen’s death

by Sheila Reynolds A HEALTH warning has been

issued after a 15-year-old boy at Surrey’s Clayton Heights Secondary died this week of an apparent bacterial meningiccocal infection.

Students at the Cloverdale-area high school received a letter from Fraser Health Authority on Thursday explaining one of their classmates had passed away and that meningitis is the suspected cause. Authorities are still awaiting test results, however.

Tributes on Facebook began to pour in almost Brandon Kurtz immediately for the victim, Brandon Kurtz.

“Brandon was a role model to us all and will always be remembered,” wrote one person.

“I will be praying for the family,” said another.

Surrey School District spokesman Doug Strachan said counsellors were made available to grieving students at the school.

Meningitis is an infection of the fluid that surrounds the spinal cord and brain, and can affect the lining of the brain or cause a blood infection.

Civic election candidates turn to Facebook, Twitter Experts say social media campaigns only successful if public is engaged

by Kevin Diakiw DURING THE coming civic election campaign, most candidates will be

using social media, such as Twitter and Facebook, as tools for engaging the public and raising funds for their campaigns.

How effective they will be boils down to how well candidates use the new media.

One candidate for the Surrey Board of Education is already utilizing the tools for fundraising.

Paul Hillsdon sent out invitations by Facebook and other social media asking for donations to his campaign for school board.

In the post, he describes at length his purpose for running for school board and notes he’ll need capital to do it. He states he’s aiming to raise $5,000 for his campaign.

That figure will give Hillsdon the money needed to run an average campaign, according to figures from the 2008 run for school board.

Hillsdon also has a significant web presence through his blogs, which he has been using to publish opinion pieces.

Hillsdon said Wednesday he’s had a few donations through the online request, but said he’s into “brand new territory.”

The contributions coming in are small, but it’s early going yet, he noted.

Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts said her Surrey First team will be using social media to “get the word out” and engage some voters. She also Mia Pearson said Surrey First will be doing some fundraising through social media during the approach to the Nov. 19 election.

Social media earned its place in the political campaigns in Barack Obama’s successful run for U.S. president in 2008.

It was subsequently used in the Toronto municipal elections of 2010 and the Canadian federal elections of 2011.

It’s broadly felt that Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi’s successful run in 2010 was greatly helped with his use of social media.

“I think it’s effective if they’re using it in a way that’s listening to the community, where the community is responding and you creatie a discussion online...”

EVAN SEAL / THE LEADER

Nicholas Houghton, a Grade 7 student at Zion Lutheran School in Cloverdale, reacts to having his head shaved as part of Shave for the Brave, a fundraiser for the Canadian Cancer Society’s Cops for Cancer Tour de Valley. Participants – mostly Grade 7 boys – pledged to raise $100 in donations each in return for losing their locks. Aaron Neussler, a Grade 3 student who was diagnosed with cancer in August, was able to watch from B.C. Children’s Hospital via Skype.

Cops for Cancer is an annual campaign where law enforcement officials and emergency services personnel cycle to fight pediatric cancers.

Metro bans smoking in regional parks Designated smoke pits to be set up in high-use areas

by Jeff Nagel METRO VANCOUVER will impose a ban on smoking in

almost all areas of its regional parks.

Friday’s board vote passed by a wide margin, with Surrey and Vancouver directors in favour.

It outlaws smoking throughout Metro-run parks, trails and beaches – except where designated smoking areas are set up and signed.

Those smoke pits are to be set up in heavily used areas where people spend large amounts of time – such as beaches, shelters, reservable buildings and campsites.

A last-minute attempt to water down the smoking restrictions failed.

Electoral director Maria Harris proposed an amendment that would have prohibited smoking in only congested areas of Metro parks, leaving smokers free to puff in large swathes.

Langley City Coun. Gayle Martin, chair of the parks committee, supported the change, saying smokers are “an easy target” for the politically correct but a more “common sense” approach is needed.

Vancouver Coun. Andrea Reimer was among those who voted to defeat the change, Parks officers will be able to issue fines but calling it a compromise of a compromise. the focus will be on educating smokers of “There is no inherent right to smoke in a the ban. public place,” she said.

For those involved in growing marijuana, the maximum penalty has doubled from seven to 14 years in jail.

The initiatives are being hailed as great news by Surrey Fire Chief Len Garis, who is also president of the Fire Chiefs Association of B.C. “Marijuana grow operations continue to be a source of fires due to the improper installation and use of electrical equipment,” Garis said in a release. “The RCMP

initiative already has the hallmarks of success by including communities in the solution and by attacking this entrenched problem from a variety of angles – and it will soon have additional support from the new legislation.”

Making the properties public will also help homebuyers and realtors assess which areas might be associated with drug production.

Research has indicated that a home with a grow operation is 24 times more likely to burn than one without.

Parents beware

T

he story of Robert Kleisinger is a chilling reminder for all parents of the predators that lurk online. It also serves as encouragement – that due diligence can result in rescuing a youngster from a highly dangerous situation, and might even result in putting one of these ghouls in prison.

Kudos to Kleisinger, and to the Abbotsford Police, for calling attention to his actions by officially commending him.

Kleisinger’s attention was alerted when he saw a photo of what appeared to be adult man communicating online with his 15-year-old stepdaughter.

The stepfather set up a monitoring program on her computer, and after gathering evidence, he went to police.

As an investigating officer and Kleisinger continued to monitor the conversations, it became apparent the man was grooming the young teen for a sexual relationship.

The man and the girl not only communicated online, but often met in person. He bought her gifts, such as a bicycle and an iPod, while promising other presents, including a puppy, a cruise when she turned 16, a cellphone and concert tickets.

It was also discovered he had a lengthy criminal history involving property crimes and theft in Canada and the U.S. Ultimately, the investigation led to the laying of charges, and eventual sentencing in April of Jason (Booda) Reise, 35, for sexual interference and communicating via a computer to lure a child under 16.

He was then handed over to American authorities for parole violations in the States.

A predator has been put behind bars, for a considerable time.

All parents must pay heed to this case, for many more like it exist. There are a host of online creeps out there, waiting to prey on young teens.

Often, all that stands between potential victims and their hunters is an attentive, communicative parent.

took some hits as she was finishing her weeklong publicity tour to roll it out.

The serious damage wasn’t from her political opponents on the left and right. The body blows came from Europe, the United States and China, where the storm clouds of a second recession continued to gather. As world leaders offered up a chorus of warning about debt and falling consumer demand, commodity markets for metals, coal and petroleum tumbled along with stocks.

One of the few firm targets Clark offered was that eight new mines should be up and running in B.C. by 2015, with expansions or upgrades to nine more existing mines. That is the total arrived at after detailed meetings with the industry. But if China’s factories slow down because fewer Americans and Europeans buy their goods, those projects can fade as quickly as the price of copper.

Total provincial spending for the B.C. jobs plan comes out around $300 million. The big-ticket items were contributions to port and rail facilities at Prince Rupert and Tsawwassen.

ferred political message is Dix’s 1960s socialist blather about the government forcibly sharing the wealth. And it’s no surprise that you’re unemployed.

B.C. Conservative leader John Cummins trashed the Prince Rupert port announcement as a payoff to local aboriginal people for a potash facility.

“The usual Liberal policy of giving natives a veto on new projects has got to end,” Cummins said, demonstrating once again that he understands nothing about the evolution of this issue in the past 20 years.

In summary, Clark’s jobs plan is to continue Gordon Campbell’s Pacific gateway strategy. The opposition parties are reheating decades-old failed options they hope will smell better than a stale three-term government.

And B.C. is, as always, at the mercy of world events.

Surrey’s suites bylaw is ‘draconian’ Slots plan

BYLAW 1993, No.12000 empowers the City of Surrey to close down 25,000 illegal suites. If Surrey had affordable housing, these suites would not have been built. The city has been aware that soon after new homes are approved as single-family homes, one or more suites are added on because the market needs it.

Duty to build enough affordable homes is that of province and city but it is unofficially delegated to some homeowners to develop suites in their homes. Politics is at its best – a government-generated problem that should not have been allowed to occur.

Surrey and other satellite cities have allowed such suites to pop up without official approval only to meet needs of their growing popula-

tion. If Surrey doesn’t have enough money to provide affordable housing, why does it make a bylaw to close down illegal suites? Lately Surrey has allowed only one legal suite in a house, so the next one is under the hatchet.

Here you can get one to two bedrooms between $450 and $650 a month inclusive – heat, hydro, cable and maybe laundry too.

The B.C. government only provides $375 per person as a housing allowance to those on social assistance.

Maybe the City of Surrey has learned from Metro Toronto’s problems, where certain publicly funded buildings have become ghettos with ongoing law-and-order problems and real estate values in their neighbourhoods

have permanently dropped.

Mayor Dianne Watts has been declared fourth best mayor in the world. She could not enjoy this honour without the law-abiding tenants in the “illegal” suites and well-maintained houses by their owners.

Suites in the private houses mean government saves its housing and management costs and collects more property tax from such homes. In this win-win situation, instead of the City of Surrey appreciating the private sector’s contributions, it has a draconian bylaw to harass.

Mayor, please repeal this bylaw.

Shan Rana Surrey

Mixed reviews for premier PREMIER CHRISTY Clark may have had to wait to launch her jobs plan, but it’s been well worth waiting for. Especially the announcement of funding to help get phase one of the Prince Rupert port expansion underway. It’s a key project that will create jobs throughout B.C. for decades.

The premier’s vision for B.C. to be the economic engine for a 21st-century Canada is timely and forward-thinking, but clearly something that the neither NDP nor the B.C. Conservative party seem to get.

While NDP leader Adrian Dix talks off the top of his head about training credits for job categories that don’t exist here in B.C., and therefore have no relevance, the Conservatives’ John Cummins haphazardly flips and flops his way across the province, leaving a trail of contradictory policies and statements.

B.C. needs new dollars, but how are we going to get them if we simply stand back and watch the world go by as Mr. Dix and Mr. Cummins seem to be suggesting in their criticism of the premier’s jobs plan?

The only way we can bring new dollars into the province is by opening up our doors to greater trade with the rapidly expanding Asia-Pacific markets. After all, the best defence of jobs in our economy is a strong offense that aggressively markets and then delivers our products and services to the world.

So, if the economy is the engine and B.C. is the car, I’m one person who is very happy that Christy Clark is in the driver’s seat, with

become attracted to and disorientated by artificial lights. One of the most distressing examples of this

self-destructive behaviour can be witnessed most evenings in B.C. On the TV news you will likely see a wide-eyed Christy Clark, our premier by default, buzzing about in front of the artificial camera lights.

The premier’s primary responsibility is to run our provincial government, B.C.’s largest single employer, as a sustainable, costeffective, service-delivery business for the long-term benefit of

I FIND CLAIMS of widespread public resistance to digital smart meters more than a little bit suspect. The public embraced digital technology long ago; everything from cellphones to free WiFi to any number of digital devices and services in their lives. People actively seek out digital devices and gladly stand in line to be the first ones to have the latest thing.

Yet according to some, the public is supposedly rising up in spontaneous opposition to digital smart meters in favour of keeping ancient mechanical meters that date from the early days of the rotary dial phone. That makes no sense.

Where is the logical, or even the remotely believable, basis for claiming there is widespread opposition to digital smart meters? Practically everything in our lives

the people.

Who is most enjoying Clark’s performance as a political celebrity? The answer is pretty obvious: members of the B.C. Conservative party.

When an election finally comes, the voters will judge Clark on her accomplishments, not on her synthetic smiles and empty promises.

has become digital, and without opposition.

Clearly there is some special interest agenda at work that seeks to keep an inaccurate, cumbersome, labourintensive technology like mechanical meters in place rather than allowing the public to enjoy the benefits of a better, more cost-effective way of doing things like digital smart meters.

In short, the notion that well-informed people who already make use of, and fully enjoy, the convenience of digital technology in every aspect of their lives would somehow be opposed to digital smart meters, and the accuracy and convenience they offer, simply doesn’t stand up to reason or scrutiny.

Mike Taylor Port Moody

was just a business deal

IN LATE October of 2009, myself and many other people from various different social service agencies came forward at city hall to voice our approval for slots in Surrey.

Although I faced a difficult challenge with slots, looking at the bigger picture of those in need came before my own personal views.

Boardwalk Gaming presented a beautiful picture of how the strip mall around Newton Bingo Country was going to look, and how safety would be in place with a community placing station.

The meeting lasted until after 1 a.m. with Boardwalk receiving permission for slots. One of the speakers, a Lions Club member from North Surrey, and a resident of Newton, spoke about how impressed he was to see this great improvement taking place.

It is now almost two years since the approval and what is and has taken place to date is not what I or anyone else at that meeting voted for.

In June of this year, the nonsmoking area of the old dilapidated building was slightly improved to make room for slots. This room had been used by non-smokers to play bingo. They were moved to the old, dirty, smelly room that used to be smokers.

In fact, it could still be called smokers because the air is musty, there is no proper air conditioning, the carpets are old and smelly, the washrooms need upgrading, the kitchen facilities need to be viewed by the Fraser Health Authority, and the city bylaws department needs to get over there and deal with smokers going out the fire exit door to smoke, and others sitting right by the front entrance smoking their cigarettes.

It is now very clear this was a business deal once approved, sold to someone else. This is not what I want to see and I would like to encourage every resident of Surrey to call and write about their concerns with this project before it is too late. Call and write the city or go have a look at Newton Bingo and decide if this is what you want in your neighbourhood. I can say for sure, I would not want this project in my neighbourhood.

SCC unveils election team 5O% OFF Party has not named a mayoral candidate – yet

by Kevin Diakiw

STUDENT ENROLMENT

at Kwantlen Polytechnic University’s Surrey campus jumped by 10 per this fall compared to last year.

While roughly 7,000 students attended the campus on 72 Avenue near 126 Street last year, about 8,000 registered to hit the books this month.

Across the university’s four campuses, enrolment went up seven per cent, with Langley

experiencing the highest jump of 33 per cent, followed by Surrey at 10, and Richmond numbers rising five per cent.

The enrolment growth is being attributed to a number of factors – from the location of the four campuses to the diversity of programs.

Enrolment at Kwantlen’s trades campus in Cloverdale decreased slightly this fall from last, dropping two per cent to just under 500 students. sreynolds@surreyleader.com

THE SLATE opposing the status quo on city council will not be running a mayoral candidate, but its councillor candidates are expected to attack the mayor and her Surrey First team on the issue of accountability.

The Surrey Civic Coalition (SCC) nominated the remainder of its slate on Sunday, adding three people contending for council.

New to the left-leaning team are Steve Wood, a former two-term councillor from Campbell River; Kuldip Ardawa, a member of the City of Surrey’s Social Planning Committee; and Doug Elford, an environmental protection officer with the City of Vancouver. Elford ran for council in 1999 as an independent, garnering 9,982 votes, Bob Bose placing five spots out of a council seat.

They join previously nominated SCC candidates Rina Gill, Stephanie Ryan, Gary Robinson, and Grant Rice, as well as incumbent Coun. Bob Bose.

Sukhy Dhillon, a Delta teacher, and Ram Sidhu, a program manager with South Fraser Women’s Services, were acclaimed as school trustee candidates and join incumbent Ijaz Chatha and previously nominated SCC candidates Laurence Greeff, Charlene Dobie and Moh Chilali.

The party did not nominate a candidate for mayor on Sunday. ”We intend to run a very competitive team that will challenge Mayor (Dianne) Watts to make good on her commitments,” SCC president Gord Savard said in a release. “Likewise, we will work with her on projects that benefit everyone in Surrey. SCC will be running on the issue of accountability.

We do not believe that the current council or the Board of Education have, in any way, ever held the mayor accountable.”

Bose said there’s still time to run a mayor if the party chooses, noting the nomination deadline is Oct. 14.

He also notes that it helps the party strategically to run full slates, adding that the notion it waters down opposing votes is a fallacy.

“It’s an advantage to us strategically to run full slates,” Bose said Monday. “What happens is people who want to support your campaign, end up voting for somebody in opposition to your campaign.”

Three-year sentence for former VPD ofďŹ cer Peter Hodson

by Tracy Holmes FORMER VANCOUVER

Police officer Peter Hodson has been sentenced to three years in a federal prison for selling marijuana while on duty.

The White Rock resident, 33, pleaded guilty to trafficking marijuana and two counts of breach of trust late last year, eight months after he was arrested at VPD’s Cambie Street headquarters.

Judge Gregory Rideout delivered the sentence – which includes three years of jail time, minus 21 days for time already served – in Vancouver Provincial Court Thursday morning. “Your remarkable fall from grace is a burden

you will carry for the rest of your life,� Rideout told Hodson, noting the former officer’s actions “left many victims,� including his family, friends, residents of the Downtown Eastside, Vancouver taxpayers and the VPD. “The burden (the VPD) must now bear is that one of their own transgressed in such a shocking manner.�

Hodson, a father of four, was arrested April 21, 2010, following a two-month investigation into allegations by a Downtown Eastside drug addict that a constable was selling street-level amounts of marijuana both on- and off-duty.

The investigation included an undercover

Regarding mitigating factors, Rideout cited Hodson’s early guilty plea, noting it established that he accepted responsibility for his actions and “that his future for rehabilitation is likely.�

Rideout also considered: Hodson’s in-court apology in determining sentence; his past and present willingness to volunteer; the continued support of his family; and that he has managed to salvage his marriage.

At Hodson’s sentencing hearing this summer, Crown counsel asked for a jail term of threeand-a-half years, while Hodson’s defence recommended a conditional sentence – something Rideout dismissed as “highly inappropriate.�

Hodson’s sentence includes two two-year prison terms – one for drug trafficking, the other for breach of trust – to be served concurrently, and one year for breach of trust in connection with accessing police data bases to advance his criminal activities.

operation in which 10 “scenarios� documented the drug addict buying marijuana from Hodson or a co-accused, Oscar Lapitan.

In giving his reasons for sentence, Rideout cited aggravating factors, including that Hodson’s criminal activity occurred while he was on duty, in uniform and sometimes while he was using a police vehicle, and that “vulnerable Downtown Eastside residents� were involved.

It was not a case of poor judgment, Rideout said. The activities were “significantly planned and premeditated.� “He had full knowledge of the activity in which he had engaged,� he said.

Another aggravating factor Rideout considered was that, in order to investigate Hodson, extensive police resources were diverted from units created to tackle issues of homelessness, mental illness and chronic drug trafficking in the Downtown Eastside.

11-year-old murder case goes to trial

CHRISTTHE REDEEMER ANGLICAN PARISH 16613 Bell Rd Cloverdale (604) 576-2216

A 38-YEAR-OLD Langley man has been ordered to stand trial for the June 12, 2000 murder of 27-yearold Vancouver resident Shayne Murray Preece in Surrey.

David Lawrence Robert Langlet will be tried by a B.C. Supreme Court Justice in New Westminster. He is scheduled to make a brief appearance on Oct. 6 to set a date. The order was made by a Surrey Provincial Court judge, following a preliminary hearing of the evidence that ended Sept. 15.

Eleven years ago, Preece was discovered slumped in the back seat of a Jeep Cherokee in a Surrey parking lot shortly before midnight near an all-night restaurant at 10194 152 St. Customers had just stepped outside to smoke on the restaurant’s outdoor patio when they heard several shots coming from the alley, near a garbage container.

Langlet has been in custody since he was arrested last year and charged with first-degree murder.

The case had been reopened by the Surrey RCMP Unsolved Homicide Unit, which is assigned to review and investigate murders that occurred before June 2003. That was when the regional Integrated Homicide Investigation team took over homicide investigations in several Lower Mainland communities.

The Preece slaying is one of 72 unsolved Surrey murders, some that date back as far back as 1967, under investigation. dferguson@surreyleader.com

SURREY SCHOOL DISTRICT CELEBRATES

A space to work, learn and save Staff and students welcomed at new District Education Centre The future learns here Simon Fraser University is pleased to congratulate the Surrey Board of Education on the grand opening of its new District Education Centre and to recognize the Surrey School District for valuing the individuality of all students by creating learning communities that foster respect, integrity and personal achievement.

he Surrey School District is rolling out the welcome mat for staff and students at the new District Education Centre (DEC), and closing the door on wasted energy and lease fees.

“The need for a new administration building was identified more than 20 years ago and we are delighted to finally be able to offer this facility – a modern, healthy, environmentally friendly working and learning environment – to our staff and students,” said Laurae McNally, chairperson of the Surrey Board of Education.

DEC was built without any financial assistance from the Ministry of Education, using district-generated revenue from sources such as facility rental fees and international student tuition.

Two decades in the making, the DEC will save the district an estimated $1.5 million a year in reduced energy, lease and travel costs – money that can now go directly into the classroom.

The four-storey, $40-million building is

T

14,000 square metres in size and houses 27 district departments that were previously scattered around the city in portables, warehouses and rental properties. More than 400 employees are now just steps away from one another at the District Education Centre.

The building is also home to Surrey Connect, the district’s distributed learning school, which allows students to take courses online and learn at their own pace.

There are roughly 10,000 students taking at least one course through Surrey Connect this year. They are now able to meet faceto-face with teachers and other students, as well as gather for field trips and take exams at the new DEC centre.

The education centre has also been built to LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Gold standards and features a geothermal heating and cooling system, thermal glass windows and skylights that make the most of available natural light.

The DEC is located at 14033 92 Ave.

SURREY SCHOOL DISTRICT CELEBRATES

Congratulations on your new state-of-the-art facility!

A Coast Salish welcome Entrance posts were carved at five Surrey high schools tudents, staff and visitors to Surrey Schools’ District Education Centre will be welcomed in the Coast Salish tradition. A pair of welcome poles were erected at the south entrance of the building Sept. 16 to welcome guests, recognize and honour the Coast Salish territory, and to celebrate the gathering of the various departments within the school district. “It’s important to honour our traditional territory and the signiďŹ cance of our aboriginal history and culture,â€? notes Gayle Bedard, district principal of aboriginal education.

The red cedar posts – a male and a female ďŹ gure – are the culmination of the Tree of Life project, which was launched in the 2010/2011 school year. Working on site at ďŹ ve secondary schools that also hosted surrounding elementary students, Semiahmoo First Nation carver Leonard Wells was commissioned to carve the poles. Wells spent a week at each school – Frank Hurt, Lord Tweedsmuir, Kwantlen

Welcome

Park, Fraser Heights and Guildford Park – and was joined by six elders who also taught students about First Nations history, culture, language and arts.

The project was funded by a $72,000 grant from the Government of Canada through the Urban Aboriginal Strategy. “The carving of these Coast Salish Welcome Posts has provided students and staff the opportunity to learn about aboriginal culture and traditions in a culturally enhanced learning environment,� said Jacquie Adams, co-chair of the Metro Vancouver Urban Aboriginal Strategy steering committee. “The Welcome Posts will stand through time, symbolizing aboriginal contributions to the Surrey community.�

The Tree of Life project supports two of the Aboriginal Enhancement Agreement goals: To increase awareness and understanding of aboriginal history, traditions and culture for all students; and to enhance aboriginal students’ sense of belonging so they can be successful.

Surrey Board of Education members and Surrey School District officials help plant a 14-foot copper beach tree outside the new District Education Centre. The tree is unique on the site and will have a plaque commemorating the centre’s official opening at its foot.

Continued from page 8

In addition to annual operating cost savings on travel time, gas, office leases and electricity bills, the addition of the DEC building means the district will not have to maintain and upgrade the various aging facilities in which staff previously worked.

An independent consultant estimates the Surrey School District will save $1.5 million a year – money that can now be spent on programs and resources for students.

The environmental savings are equally valuable. The reduction in staff driving time alone is expected to lower car emissions by at least 25 per cent. And it’s hoped further reductions may also be realized as staff carpool, walk, cycle or take public transit to work resulting in less use of personal cars and reduced staff parking.

But the new building itself is also designed to drastically reduce the district’s carbon footprint. ...continued on page 10

GALA

Join SFU President Andrew Petter for Diwali, the festival of lights. SFU welcomes the community to this cultural and networking reception to raise funds in support of mobility scholarships for SFU students to work, study, or volunteer in India.

The facility is being built to the LEED Gold standard required for new B.C. public buildings.

LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is an internationally recognized rating system for a building’s environmental impact.

For the DEC, a mechanical consultant calculated the district’s carbon reduction at 62.5 per cent, along with a reduction in gas and electricity costs of 54.7 per cent.

DEC not only utilizes a geothermal heating system, drawing heat from the earth and circulating it throughout the building, but also boasts chilled beams, natural ventilation, energy efficient light fixtures and natural light harvesting – by way of numerous windows and skylights – as sustainable features.

There is also a solar system consisting of 10 panels on the roof that will heat the water going to taps.

Goals for maintaining a healthy and “green” workplace also exist for workers. For example, there is significantly less room for filing paper away, encouraging employees to hit the print button less often.

And green standards and carbon reduction laws will limit the number and use of powered devices used in the building, from heaters to kettles and coffee makers. Employees are also asked to avoid blocking the flow of natural lighting so as to “share the shine” as far as possible on each floor.

Surrey/North Delta Leader 27

North Delta Devils players Adam Nishi (27), Tanner Lenting (4) and Matthew Denton check a pair of Abbotsford Pilots opponents in front of netminder Alex Ahnert during Friday’s PIJHL game in Abbotsford.

The Pilots won 5-3 in the first game of the year for both teams.

JOHN MORROW BLACK PRESS

Season starts with a split PIJHL season underway, North Delta Devils get a win, loss

by Rick Kupchuk WINS AND LOSSES don’t define a team in preseason play, especially the North Delta Devils.

The Pacific International Junior Hockey League team lost all four exhibition games, scoring just three goals along the way.

But in the first two regular season contests, the Devils tallied seven times, losing 5-3 on the road against the Abbotsford Pilots Friday night before winning on home ice 4-1 against the Ridge Meadows Flames Saturday

night at the Sungod Arena.

The powerplay helped Devils battled back from a two goal deficit in Abbotsford Friday night, but two goals in the last 30 seconds of play allowed the Pilots to escape with the win.

The home team jumped to a 2-0 lead just seven minutes into the game, then after Adam Nishi put North Delta on the scoreboard, Abbotsford tallied again for a 3-1 lead after 30 minutes.

Manuveer Mahil cut the difference in half just 73 seconds into the second frame with the

first Devils powerplay goal of the contest. He netted another goal with the extra man with 11 minutes to play to knot the score at 3-3.

The only Pilots powerplay goal of the contest was the winner, coming with 30 seconds to play.

They closed out the scoring with four seconds left on the clock.

North Delta was two-for-three on the powerplay, and killed off two of three shorthanded situations. Abbotsford outshot the Devils 35-24. Veteran Alex Ahnert took the loss in the Dev-

ils goal, making 30 saves.

A day later in their first home game of the season, North Delta allowed the Flames to score first and take a 1-0 lead into the dressing room after the first period. It was all Devils after that, as the home side tallied twice in each of the last two periods, outshooting their guests 36-22.

Matthew Denton tied the game less than two minutes into the seconcd period, and Colin Catchpole netted what would be the winning goal just 48 seconds later.

Darren Asuncion and Jacob Wesley added insurance goals in the third period.

The Devils converted their lone powerplay opportunity, and shut down the Flames on their one attempt.

Harry Fredeman made his first start in goal in a Devils uniform, getting the win with 33 saves.

North Delta will host the Mission Ice Breakers next Saturday at 6:45 p.m. in the Sungod Arena. The Ice Breakers have lost their first two contests by an aggregate score of 9-1.

’Hawks rally falls short Seaquam loses to West Vancouver in preseason play

by Rick Kupchuk PLAYING AGAINST Senior AAA

high school football competition for the second consecutive week, the Seaquam Seahawks staged a second half rally but came up just short in a 21-16 loss to the West Vancouver Highlanders Saturday afternoon.

Playing at Seaquam Secondary, the Senior AA Seahawks trailed 21-7 at half time, but some defensive adjustments shut down the West Vancouver offence after the break. But Seaquam couldn’t

add to their point total until the fourth period. Keegan Lensink with a 27-yard field goal and Mark Lego with a touchdown pulled the ‘Hawks to within a score, but their last offensive possession ended at midfield with less than a minute to play.

Quarterback Mark Green scored the other Seaquam touchdown in the first half.

The Seahawks are 1-2 (won-lost) in preseason play. They host the Rick Hansen Hurricanes in another exhibition contest Saturday at Seaquam. Kickoff is at 1:30 p.m.

Friday at home, Semiahmoo Minor hockey alum Michael Stenerson led the charge for Surrey with a pair of power-play goals, while Langley was paced by firstyear BCHLer Mario Puskarich, who also potted a pair of goals, including the OT winner 1:01 into the game’s second overtime.

In Saturday’s rematch, Robert Lindores had two goals and one assist for Surrey, while captain Tyler Morley and younger brother, Brandon, each had two-point evenings.

Linden Saip and Mitch Spooner also scored for the Eagles in the win.

Both teams’ powerplays were sharp all weekend long, with the Eagles scoring five times with the manadvantage – including three times Saturday – and the Rivermen three.

Surrey also managed a shorthanded marker, off the stick of Tyler Morley in the second period of Saturday’s win.

– who was the backup to departed veteran Karel St. Laurent last year – was between the pipes in both contests for the Eagles, stopping 37 shots in the double-overtime loss, and 24 in the win Saturday.

In an odd scheduling quirk, the two clubs will square off for the third consecutive time Friday, at South Surrey Arena. On Saturday, the Eagles host the Coquitlam Express.

BLUE LINES: Former Eagles starting goaltender Karel St. Laurent, who came to South Surrey last season from the Quebec Major Junior League, was cut from Vancouver Canucks main camp last week, and reassigned to the team’s American Hockey League affiliate, the Chicago Wolves.

St. Laurent, who was in Canucks camp on a tryout basis, will now try to earn his first professional contract with the AHL club.

“It was an amazing journey here in Vancouver! Enjoyed every second of it,” St. Laurent wrote on Twitter last week.

Quiet pride in their duty Surrey author narrates stories of more than 60 Canadian military veterans

by Boaz Joseph

D

uane Duff learned a little about John Hoosha through the grapevine when Duff was in college in Winnipeg studying to become a teacher in the early 1950s.

At the time, Hoosha was the campus dessert guy, known, among other confectioneries, for his mouth-watering rice pudding.

The odd thing was that Hoosha never sampled his own product – never eating a grain of rice from the end of the Second World War until his death in 1968.

Duff learned the details of Hoosha’s story while researching for his latest book, The Forces and the Faces: Round-the-World Tour with Canadians.

First published in July, it’s a collection of stories of more than 60 Canadians, both men and women, in the military services from 1939 to the present day, told first-hand from the veterans themselves or from their families and friends.

The stories cover training, war, peacekeeping and rescue missions from places as varied as Normandy, Somalia and New Orleans.

In Hoosha’s case, it’s the story of starvation and torture at the hands of the Japanese after the fall of Hong Kong on Christmas Day, 1941.

For four years, Hoosha lived on little more than small amounts of rice – food he found contemptible later in life.

Hoosha never shared his experiences with anyone in his family except for his daughter Faye, who was born shortly after he departed with 2,200 other Canadian soldiers for duty at the former British colony.

After he wa was liberated in 1945, BOAZ JOSEPH / THE LEADER Hoosha told his daughter that the thought of seeing s her for the first Duane Duff spent two years conducting interviews for his latest – and possibly final – time was the th only thing that kept book on the Canadian men and women who served in the military over the last several him alive during d his captivity. decades.
