Scotties under way

Kelley Law of the Royal City Curling Club watches her shot during play Monday at the Scotties B.C. Women’s Curling Championships taking place in Cloverdale. The 2002 Olympic bronze medalist was on one of three teams to win twice on the ﬁrst day of play. Visit surreyleader.com for regular updates on the tournament, which runs until Sunday.

Next stop: Cloverdale Hub for heritage railway shifts from Sullivan; 176 Street tram line possible by Jeff Nagel CLOVERDALE IS about to become the epicentre for the heritage railway revival movement in Surrey. City council has approved plans to relocate the rail car barn of the Fraser Valley Heritage Rail Society (FVHRS) from Sullivan Station on 152 Street to a new home in Cloverdale just southeast of Highway 10 and

176 Street. The society is edging closer to a planned launch of its refurbished BC Electric Railway (BCER) heritage rail car #1225 later this year. Volunteers have spent five years and more than 16,000 hours lovingly restoring the old Interurban rail car at the Sullivan barn and an inaugural run could be made by late summer.

A city report says relocating to the new Cloverdale site will make it easier to launch the heritage rail demonstration project, which would initially carry passengers between Cloverdale and Sullivan, but could later be extended to Newton and ultimately Scott Road SkyTrain station near the Pattullo Bridge.

Health authority considers tanning bed rules Greater Victoria youth restrictions spark interest here by Kevin Diakiw THE LOWER Mainland could follow Greater Victoria in outlawing the use of tanning beds by youths under 18. The Capital Regional District voted Jan. 12 to pass a bylaw restricting access to tanning salons to people aged 18 and older, on the advice of medical health officers and anti-cancer groups who note ultraviolet light (UV) exposure at an early age has been linked to the onset of skin cancer. “We have been watching the bylaw situation in Victoria with interest,” Fraser Health Authority spokesperson Joan Marshall said. “This is something we will be looking at with Fraser Health.” Vancouver Coastal Health Authority officials have also had discussions with their Victoria counterparts about the concept. There are no immediate plans Dianne Watts to bring the issue before the Metro Vancouver or Fraser Valley Regional District boards. According to a study by the World Health Organization, UVA rays – the ones primarily emitted by artificial tanning lamps – are considered a Class One carcinogen, on par with asbestos and tobacco. Victoria’s bylaw will fine violators $250 to $2,000. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts said she would support restricting the use of tanning beds to those over 18 years old. See Jackson page 4

Surrey comes through for the food bank Fundraising goal of $450,000 reached by Boaz Joseph KUDOS TO Surrey.

Marilyn Herrmann

That’s the sentiment from the Surrey Food Bank, which reached its goal of bringing in $450,000 in cash donations in 2010. Although the food bank staff were nervous when just half the goal was reached two weeks before Christmas, the final holiday surge, still being tallied, is expected to bring the total tens of thousands of dollars over the goal. “Donors heard the message,” says Mari-

lyn Herrmann. “That’ll cover us for the next six or seven months.” What missed the mark was the number of food donations, which were about 50,000 lbs. short of the target of 450,000 lbs. That means the food bank will have divert some money from overhead costs to food purchases in the coming months. Although 68 area schools held Christmas food bank drives, that number was down from 100 schools in 2009. Other private and corporate food drives were also a bit weaker than previous years.

Herrmann speculates that donors believe that money goes further than food donations. “The challenge is we still need food.” Still, she’s not complaining. In the last two weeks, Herrmann signed more than 1,700 thank-you cards for members of the community. The Surrey Food Bank serves more than 15,000 people each month, nearly half of them children.

“There is no time limit on a teen if they go outside. However, tanning indoors by a certified consultant provides a controlled environment where the tanning time is monitored and restricted based on the equipment type and the client’s skin type,” Pritchard said. Both Surrey and Delta will be waiting for a presentation from Fraser Health before making a decision on age restrictions for tanning beds.

Tan de Soleil owner Marnie Pritchard said deficiencies of vitamin D are becoming a problem. “Rickets in children is even making a comeback due to our society’s fear of the sun,” she said. “Sunbed users have the highest vitamin D levels in Canada.” She added that if teens are not allowed to tan indoors, most will choose the expensive spray tanning option, or they will choose to tan outdoors, which will increase their likelihood of burning.

Kip Gaudry sentenced to 18 months for child porn Judge considers ‘horrible’ nature of seized images by Sheila Reynolds KIP GAUDRY, the former director of engineer-

ing for the Municipality of Delta, has been sentenced to 18 months in jail for possessing thousands of images and movies of child pornography. Gaudry pleaded guilty to one charge of possessing child pornography in November. A judge delivered his sentence in Surrey Provincial Court on Thursday (Jan. 13) afternoon. In imposing his sentence, the judge said he had to consider the specific nature of the child pornography found on both home and work computers. Much of it involved extremely young children – even babies – between the ages of one and five years old being abused by adult men. While all child pornography is bad, the judge said, the explicit images found in Gaudry’s possession was “toward the more horKip Gaudry rible end of the scale.” As well, Gaudry’s prior convictions were taken into account. Under his full legal name of Cleo Faust Gaudry, he pleaded guilty in 1995 to numerous counts of sexual assault and was sentenced to three-and-a-half years. The crimes were committed while he was working in the District of Houston, a small community in northwestern B.C. At the time, a Houston newspaper quoted a senior RCMP officer as saying that some of the charges involved young people. Court heard Thursday that within 18 months

of serving that sentence, Gaudry was accessing child pornography online. In March 2009, Gaudry quit as Delta’s director of engineering after police searched his home in North Delta and his office at municipal hall, seizing several computers and hard drives. Ten thousand still images and more than 300 movies involving child pornography were found. Investigators also discovered Gaudry, now a White Rock resident, had installed special software in an attempt to hide his activities. Wearing blue jeans and a black leather jacket, the bespectacled Gaudry sat calmly while the sentence was read. He was also ordered to serve three years probation following his jail time, is not permitted any drug or alcohol use, must have no contact with children under 18, cannot possess a computer or cellphone that can access the Internet and must submit a DNA sample. In delivering the sentence, the judge acknowledged Gaudry, 59, is a competent and intelligent man who had overcome a “horrific” childhood himself, which included abuse and assault. The Crown was seeking a sentence of between 12 and 18 months, while defence sought a sixmonth sentence. The second count he was facing, accessing child pornography, was stayed. Gaudry is also facing trial on an unrelated charge of indecent assault on a female in connection with a 1973 incident in Winnipeg.

LIBERAL PROMISES

Some initiatives are long overdue

RAESIDE

he promises and proposals are coming fast and thick as the Liberal leadership hopefuls vie for support. Much of what’s been heard from the six contenders has been jockeying for internal party position, and probing for what might register on the public opinion meter. Does it make a difference in the long term whether the referendum on the HST is held next fall or earlier, as Moira Stilwell suggests? Are people all that interested in George Abbott’s proposed vote on the carbon tax, or whether Christy Clark would hold town hall meetings if she were premier? We’d answer “not really” for all the above. Not so with Abbotsford MLA Mike de Jong’s promises, which top those of his contenders in terms of initiating government reform. De Jong said he would reduce the size of the cabinet and consolidate the number of ministries from 24 to less than 20, reduce the number of parliamentary secretaries, and cut the premier’s office budget by 10 per cent. Dead on target. Two dozen ministries are not required to run this province, particularly in the light of a $1.7-billion budget deficit this year. The actual savings from those measures may be small in comparison to the overall budget, but the message is the right one. Instead of promising to spend more, this candidate is suggesting practical restraint measures. Ditto with de Jong’s commitment to more accountability from MLAs, who he says should file their expenses every six months, online for all to see, with cabinet ministers providing a similar list of the organizations and individuals they met with. All of these initiatives are long overdue, and should be part of every leadership contender’s platform. – Black Press

Liberals are forcing BC Hydro to undertake expensive repairs to dams and transmission facilities, not to expand or prevent further blackouts in downtown Vancouver, but to make BC Hydro go broke! Then they’re going to sell it off to General Electric! This is a variation on a loopy theory advanced by Rafe Mair, wherein Gordon Campbell plots to dam the Fraser River and then sell Hydro off to GE. NDP leadership candidates would be wise to follow Miller’s lead and distance themselves from this increasingly toxic exercise.

FSA tests Business group a benefit to its members a valuable tool I HAVE BEEN active in my community since

OPEN LETTER to parents of Grades

4 and 7 students: The ability to read, write and solve math problems are vital skills every child needs in life. Developed by B.C. teachers and administered each winter to B.C. students, the Foundation Skills Assessments (FSA) are a set of reading, writing and numeracy tests that give you, as parents, important information about your child. These tests show where children excel and where they struggle. For example, FSA reading scores are a reliable predictor of whether your child will graduate from school on time. It allows you to work together with your child’s teacher to identify problems and take action early on, so that your child will be successful later on in their schooling. Without strong foundation skills, students entering their high-school years can become disengaged from their education. We want every student to be able to fully pursue their passion in education and become lifelong learners. The tests also allow your child’s teacher to see how students in their classroom compare to others across the province. This important data is used by teachers and principals to identify problems, propose solutions and interventions, and share best practices. As a parent, you have the right to know how your child is performing. The FSA program, which takes less than 10 hours of your child’s time between kindergarten and Grade 8, is an important building block for your child’s future success. Contrary to misinformation, the FSA is not optional – if you have any questions, please contact your child’s principal. Also, a pamphlet on FSA is available online at: http://www.gov.bc.ca/bced/ Please ensure your child writes this year’s FSA. Checking your child’s learning abilities in these early years is just like having regular medical check-ups. The results may be critical to ensuring their success in high school and beyond.

I have been in business, fighting for what I believe will encourage business, job creation and a better standard of living for our citizens. I have worked closely with local business organizations, including the Surrey Board of Trade. I have met with every level of government, elected and non-elected officials over the years to plead the case for business in our province. I have been pleasantly surprised that the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) over the years of my membership has consistently highlighted those issues of

most importance to small- and medium-sized business. Further, the CFIB has been the most influential of any organization that I am aware of in actually encouraging change in government policy and direction. A great example of this effort are the significant fee increases levied by credit card institutions recently to businesses. When I tried to address this issue through the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, the only sound I heard was the sound of doors being slammed by the large banks (who of course make all of this extra profit for these fee increases). Their willingness to help was

non-existent. It was only as a result of the CFIB that the federal government encouraged the credit card companies to adopt and abide by a “standard of conduct” that provided positive changes that will help small and medium businesses today and in the future. As a business owner, you can not spend your money in any more effective way that becoming a CFIB member.

Smokers need government help to quit RE: NATIONAL Non-Smoking Week, Jan. 16-22.

FILE PHOTO / THE LEADER

The provincial branch of the Canadian Cancer Society is urging the provincial government to provide funding for therapies to help smokers quit.

The Canadian Cancer Society B.C. and Yukon is calling on the B.C. government to support smokers who wish to quit by providing funding for nicotine replacement therapies (NRT) for smokers trying to quit. During National Non-Smoking Week, the B.C. government can reassert British Columbia’s leadership position in tobacco control. Smoking cessation products help smokers quit. NRT, such as the nicotine patch and nicotine gum, combined with physician counselling, have a proven record of treating tobacco addiction. Similar improvements in quitting success result from medications that help reduce cravings and minimize withdrawal effects. Tobacco use remains the largest single preventable cause of death and disease in B.C., killing more than 6,000 people each year. Tobacco use is estimated to cost the B.C. economy $2.3 billion annually and causes 30 per cent of all cancer deaths and 85 per cent of lung cancer cases. We commend the B.C. government for continuing to fund QuitNow.ca and QuitNow by Phone, free smoking cessation programs that are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to all British Columbians. However, if we know that smoking is an addiction, we should also help pay for treatment for the estimated 70 per cent of smokers who wish to quit. B.C. would become the third Canadian province to pay for smoking cessation products. Quebec was first; Saskatchewan the second (for medications only). Let’s work together to urge our provincial politicians to support smokers who wish to quit. Natasha Raey Health Promotion – White Rock, Surrey, Delta

Support for online voting, referenda THE SURREY CIVIC Coalition (SCC)

agrees Surrey and other local governments should consider online voting. In our view, this will increase citizens’ participation in local government, and any steps we can take toward this goal are laudable. SCC also supports referenda as another tool to increase voter engagement and, hopefully, voter turnout. We believe that all Surrey voters should have a say on the dedication of city parkland, whether we should elect city council by wards, and what our priorities should be for public transit. Prior to the 2008 election, SCC lobbied for a referendum on wards. Every major city in Canada, except Surrey and Vancouver, elects local government representatives this way, and we thought Surrey voters deserved a say. Mayor Watts and Surrey First candidates countered that there wasn’t

enough time to put a referendum in place and they didn’t think it was the right time to discuss the issue. Imagine that: They didn’t think an election campaign is a good time to discuss how we elect our representatives. Currently, TransLink is studying options for improving public transit south of the Fraser, whether extending SkyTrain, building light rail

transit, or simply buying more buses is the best solution. Mayor Watts has been encouraging citizens to participate in the process and let their views be known. A logical extension of this participation would be to include a question on the ballot to determine voters’ priorities. Last year, Surrey council came within a whisker of plowing a

Shovel snow elsewhere THIS IS THE second winter that I have noticed people constantly putting

snow into handicapped parking spots. I see it in parking lots all over Surrey. I must object to this practice and ask people to stop. It is exactly this kind of challenging situation of bad weather when disabled need the extra room to maneuver and the easier access to shops, doctor’s office etc. There are so many more non-designated spots to shovel or plow snow into. Please consider disabled people and stop putting all the snow in the larger closer handicapped parking spot. Maybe there needs to be a extra fine for this. Katheren Szabo

four-lane road through Bear Creek Park. SCC and other citizens’ groups worked hard to increase public awareness and eventually led to Surrey First hearing the outrage and retracting its position. Surrey held a referendum in 1988 to dedicate Green Timbers and Sunnyside Urban Forests as parkland. Now is the time to do the same for Bear Creek and some of Surrey’s other signature parks. We expect if voters are given the choice these parks could be given permanent park status and be protected from potential development. If Mayor Watts and council want more voter participation, online voting is but one tool. Engaging voters directly via referenda questions could be just as effective and implemented in time for the November election. Stephanie Ryan President, Surrey Civic Coalition

FSA tests this week Education controversy erupts – again by Sheila Reynolds LET THE annual FSA debate begin.

With students in Grades 4 and 7 in Surrey, Delta and across B.C. poised to being writing Foundation Skills Assessment (FSA) tests this week, the minister of education and teachers’ union charged out of the gate with their arguments for and against the multi-part exams. Education Minister Margaret MacDiarmid opened the debate with a letter to parents issued publicly Sunday morning. In it, she says the standardized math and literacy tests “show where children excel and where they struggle.” FSAs, she said, allow caregivers to work with their child’s teacher to identify problems and tackle them early so the issues aren’t compounded in later grades. “As a parent, you have the right to know how your child is performing,” said MacDiarmid, adding the tests also let teachers see how students in their class compare to others across the province. The B.C. Teachers’ Federation (BCTF) called MacDiarmid’s letter a “last-ditch effort to shore up support for the controversial testing regime.”

The union argues the FSAs do not help students learn, parents teach or provide parents worthwhile information, and consume much-needed time and resources. “The minister is encouraging teaching to the tests, a practice that undermines the academic rigour of the curriculum,” said BCTF president Susan Lambert. “These tests assess only a very narrow and superficial slice of the curriculum, but they take on exaggerated importance when the minister inflates their value with her open letter...” MacDiarmid said the testing takes less than ten hours of a child’s time between kindergarten and Grade 8 and that contrary to “misinformation,” the testing is not optional. For many years, the teachers’ union has encouraged parents to opt their children out of the FSAs if they wish. The BCTF argues figures show more parents are doing just that, with between 16 and 19 per cent of students not taking the test in 2010 as opposed to between 9 and 11 per cent not writing in 2008. FSA testing began Monday (Jan. 17) and will continue until late February. sreynolds@surreyleader.com

Metro Vancouver’s regional growth strategy was approved by the board, over the objections of a director who argued farmland would be threatened.

2011 BEER GARDEN REGULATIONS & APPLICATIONS Applications will be received by the City Clerk up to and including Monday, January 31, 2011 from organizations wanting to hold a Beer Garden in the City of Surrey during 2011.

Green light for Metro plan Steves only director to vote against growth strategy by Jeff Nagel A NEW REGIONAL growth strat-

00000

egy that opponents warn will intensify development pressure on farmland has been approved by a near-consensus of the Metro Vancouver board. Richmond Coun. Harold Steves was the only director to vote against the plan, titled Metro Vancouver 2040: Shaping Our Future. It now needs the approval of each city council in the region, the Tsawwassen First Nation, TransLink board and the two adjacent

regional district boards before it comes back to Metro for vote on final adoption. “We are allowing agricultural land to be threatened in this Metro Vancouver regional plan,” said Steves, who supports most of the document. “The developers and speculators never give up. They are relentless and they’re encouraged by this plan.” He says the new urban containment boundary in the document that seeks to limit sprawl allows too much new farmland to be

converted to urban or industrial use in eastern Langley and parts of Richmond. And he also objects to a series of study areas identified for possible longer-term urban development, which Steves said may be used to remove farmland from the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR.) The study areas, mapped out by local cities, include parts of Langley, southeast Surrey, more undeveloped forest above the highest existing homes in West Vancouver See STRATEGY / Page 11

Strategy: For development across Metro Vancouver region From page 10 and small areas in Port Coquitlam, Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge. Some of the farmland that could be converted is near Gloucester Estates in northeast Langley, an industrial area Steves had believed would not be allowed to expand. “We thought the line was drawn. Well, now the line has opened up again,” he said. “All this does is drive land prices up in the region, increasing speculation in the region and makes it more difficult for bonafide farmers, young people, to buy farmland.” But chief administrator Johnnie Carline assured other directors the urban containment boundary is “quite strong” and that the Agricultural Land Commission’s designa-

50 per cent to 3.4 million by 2040. It recommits the region to fight sprawl, protect green space and farmland, and build more dense, mixed-use neighbourhoods to allow more travel by transit, cycling or walking. The strategy allows cities to designate frequent transit development areas where they can increase residential density in anticipation of new transit lines. The final document also sets Metro’s priorities for rapid transit expansion in the region – the Evergreen Line to Coquitlam, the Broadway corridor in central Vancouver and from Surrey Metro Centre to Langley or other town centres in Surrey. Metro rejected calls to give equal weight to a line running all the way to UBC.

Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts said the plan’s goals are laudable but said much depends on whether the federal and provincial governments act accordingly. At her request, the board amended the plan requiring Metro to seek implementation agreements with Victoria and Ottawa. “There has to be some formalization and recognition that if you want a sustainable region, you’re going to have to put measures in place and you’re going to have to stick to them,” she said. Planners began work on the new strategy nine years ago, but work has been underway in earnest for the last three years and a total of 46 public meetings have been held.

Luangkhamdeng has a history of impersonations and claimed he was working for the Commission for Public Complaints against the RCMP while being dressed like a Mountie. A plainclothes officer spotted Luangkhamdeng, who was wearing a dark blue blazer, an RCMP pin, RCMP crest and black polished boots and carrying a briefcase, and arrested him.

Canada Line employees vote in favour of strike Swift job action not expected by Jeff Nagel CANADA LINE workers have voted in favour of strike action but union leaders say there are no immediate plans to try to shut down the rapid transit line. B.C. Government and Service Employees’ Union (BCGEU) members voted 95 per cent in favour of strike action, giving the union the ability to issue 72-hour strike notice at any time. “There’s no job action planned at this time,” said BCGEU spokesman Brian Gardiner, adding the union is asking the Labour Relations Board to appoint a mediator to help resolve the labour dispute. “It sends a strong vote of support for the bargaining committee and its approach,” he said of the strike vote. “And it’s a pretty strong message to the employer that our members are serious about trying to get a collective agreement.” The 180 Canada Line workers hired by operator Protrans BC certified with the BCGEU in August 2009. Since then talks have been underway in an attempt to conclude a first collective agreement.

The union members include control room operations workers, attendants and maintenance workers. Gardiner would not discuss details of the negotiations, but said health and welfare benefits and pensions are among the issues on the table. Protrans BC, which is owned by SNC Lavalin, runs the Canada Line under a 35-year contract. The line connecting Richmond, Vancouver and the airport logs about 100,000 rides a day. Protrans BC spokesman Jason Chan said the company looks forward to continuing talks with the help of a mediator. He would not say what capability management might have, if any, to keep Canada Line trains running if picket lines go up. “We are far from that,” Chan said. “We remain hopeful we can come to an agreement.” The Canada Line isn’t the only arm of TransLink’s transit operations that could be embroiled in a labour dispute if bargaining fails. Bus drivers with the Coast Mountain Bus Co. are also now in contract negotiations, as are SkyTrain employees.

Bus study â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;biasedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Provincial review against Valley trains by Jeff Nagel ADVOCATES OF a modern light rail line connecting the Fraser Valley from Surrey to Chilliwack say the provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new study recommending expanded bus service never gave trains an honest chance. Rail For The Valley founder Jon Buker accuses the transportation ministry-led study of â&#x20AC;&#x153;extreme biasâ&#x20AC;? by using â&#x20AC;&#x153;grossly inflatedâ&#x20AC;? cost estimates to undermine the case for a light rail service running on the old Interurban corridor. He said the study is what he expected â&#x20AC;&#x201C; one â&#x20AC;&#x153;designed simply to discredit light rail and push Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agenda for rapid bus implementation for the Fraser Valley.â&#x20AC;? The Strategic Review of Transit in the Fraser Valley estimated it would cost $112 million a year to launch a 98-kilometre heavy rail commuter line â&#x20AC;&#x201C; akin to the West Coast Express â&#x20AC;&#x201C; from Surrey to Chilliwack or $176 million annually for a light rail line that could serve more passengers. It said the region instead needs a $90-million-a-year investment in local and regional buses that would promise frequent service every 15 minutes or less over a wide area and include express buses to haul people longer distances. That would be a big jump from the $11 million a year currently spent on transit service in the Fraser Valley Regional District. Buker said a key flaw in the study is it based all its rail costs on a West Coast Express-type heavy rail service, which requires significant doubletracking and other rail infrastructure upgrades, particularly in Surrey. Consultants extrapolated the higher costs in that area throughout the route, he said, and then also used them in preparing the estimates for light rail, which wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t require nearly as much upgrading. The review found track upgrading costs would add up to $18.6 million per kilometre. A study commissioned last year by Rail For The Valley and an earlier consultantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s report for the City of Surrey had both found a light rail service could be launched for much less â&#x20AC;&#x201C; $5 to $6 million per kilometre â&#x20AC;&#x201C; on the existing tracks that once carried Inter-

urban trams until the 1950s. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A far more affordable system achieving the same basic level of service can be built,â&#x20AC;? he said. Buker also contends the provincial study low-balled the number of passengers who would take trains and predicted three times as many people would use the proposed enhanced bus transit system. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If the Fraser Valley can support hourly bus service, or even halfhourly bus service, it can also support light rail, whose operating costs over the lifetime of the vehicles tend to actually be lower, when all costs are taken into account,â&#x20AC;? he said. Better bus service is a good idea, Buker said, but he noted just one per cent of Valley residents now take buses and improving ridership will require a â&#x20AC;&#x153;light rail backboneâ&#x20AC;? across the region. Critics of heavier West Coast Express-type trains say they tend to mainly serve commuters going to downtown Vancouver and fail to provide all-day regular service connecting local centres. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an important distinction because 80 per cent of all Valley trips are by residents travelling in their own community, not making long commutes across the Lower Mainland. Another key to usability is the number of stations on a rail line. The provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s study analyzing the Interurban corridor assumed nine stations â&#x20AC;&#x201C; four in Surrey, three in Langley and just one each in Abbotsford and Chilliwack. Making more stops than that would increase trip times and deter passengers, consultants said. Any improved transit study will need to be funded, it said, suggesting a local gas tax in the Fraser Valley Regional District as one option. Each cent of gas tax levied in the FVRD would generate $4.1 million per year, it said. Metro Vancouverites pay 12 cents per litre to TransLink as well as a much higher level of property tax. The FVRD population is projected to climb 70 per cent to more than 450,000 over the next two decades. The report aims to quadruple Valley transit use from one to 4.1 per cent of trips by 2040.

Scott followed up in the evening with a 7-4 triumph over Karla Thompson of Kamloops. Two other rinks are also off to perfect starts after two draws. Kelley Law, the losing finalist a year ago, also started by erasing a 4-2 deficit to Nicole Backe of Nanaimo on her way to an 8-6 triumph. The 2002 Olympian scored four in the seventh end and two more in the 10th. Law then handled Adina Tasaka 9-2 in a battle of the two teams from the Royal City Curling Club in New Westminster.

After one day of play, Fewster, Lewis, Tasaka and Patti Knezevic of Prince George are all 1-1 (won-lost).

Inside Track ...with Dan Jukich Ed Hensley went on a winning binge this past weekend at Fraser Downs by scoring seven more driving victories to increase his total to 58 on the season. At one point Hensley’s streak included capturing three races in succession on Saturday – the 4th, 5th and 6th – before capping it off with another win in the 11th. He won two races on Friday night and one on Sunday. Having been born and raised in California, Hensley is ineligible to be named among the top three drivers representing B.C. in the 2011 Western Regional Driving Championship at Fraser Downs on Saturday, Feb. 26. With the cut-off date being January 23, it appears heading into the weekend that Jim Marino, Dave Hudon and Michael Hennessy will probably be making up Team B.C. against drivers from Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba on Feb. 26. The Fraser Downs Leading Drivers standings at the moment show Hensley on top with 58, Marino second with 39, Hudon and Keith Clark tied with 30 and Hennessy next with 20. Clark will be driving for the Alberta contingent that includes Gerry Hudon and Brandon Campbell. David McKellar and Serge Masse, each with 18 driving wins, are still in the chase. Hennessy moved ahead of them with two wins this past Saturday and one on Friday. The 2011 National Driving Championship sponsored by Standardbred Canada is set for the Red Shores Racetrack and Casino at Charlottetown Driving Park in Prince Edward Island on Saturday, May 7. Then the U.S.Trotting Association hosts the 25th World Driving Championship showcasing drivers from 10 countries competing at ﬁve tracks in a 20heat format: Harrah’s Chester (Chester, Pa.) on July 31; Tioga Downs (Nichols, N.Y.) on August 1; Monticello Raceway (Monticello, N.Y.) on Aug. 3, Meadowlands Racetrack (East Rutherford, N.J.) on Aug. 4 and Yonkers Raceway (Yonkers, N.Y.) on Aug. 5. Back on the local scene, popular Mystic Maiden qualiﬁed Sunday at The Downs as she prepares to return to these parts after winning the $100,000 Western Filly Pace at Northlands. Her next race will be either an elimination leg for the Miss Valentine on Feb. 6 or directly to the Final

on Feb. 13 should there not be eliminations. Racing resumes at Fraser Downs Friday at 7:00 p.m. and 1:15 starts on Saturday and Sunday. See you there!

Surrey’s schools are PLAY BALL! bursting at the seams LET’S Written by Sylvia Taylor

According to the City’s ¿rst Corporate Report of 2011 the enrolment for the 2010/2011 school year is up 845 students from the previous year. The increase is the equivalent of two elementary schools. But the only schools that have opened in 2010-2011 have been on the books prior to 2006 and as of now, no more schools in Surrey are planned. So what does this mean? Our children will continue to be taught in portables. In 2010, there are 206 portables at 45 different schools in Surrey. Every high school in Surrey has at least one portable, and ¿ve have more than 10. By 2015, if schools aren’t built, it is expected that there will be 266 portables, more if you add pre-kindergarten. Given that there are no schools on the drawing board, portables at every school will be a reality. Being taught in portables is not a desirable learning environment. But the issue is bigger than that. Schools are funded by the Provincial Government. They have two pots of money: one for capital investment and one for operations. Schools are built through capital investment. Even though Surrey is the largest school district in BC and one of the few that is growing, the Province has not shown any plans to invest in needed infrastructure in Surrey. When you hear that the Province funds everyone equally, they are talking about the operations funding provided per child: $6740 (plus supplemental grants for special needs). Instead of spending the $6740 per child for programming and supplies as part of their learning experience, the Surrey School District must supply portables. With 206 portables currently in use in Surrey, that means $20,600,000 has been taken away from students just to provide them with classrooms. Does that seem fair to you? Mayor Watts and Surrey City Council discussed this issue at the Council meeting on January 10, 2011. They don’t think it is fair and will be speaking with the Surrey Board of Education and the Minister of Education. You can help, too. Please contact your local MLA. The largest school district in BC needs capital investment in schools now for the future. After all, the Future Lives Here!

The time-honoured tradition of building young lives and strong community through baseball in all its forms, is alive and well in Whalley. The community and its kids from three to eighteen, is served for over six decades by two renowned ball clubs: the Whalley Little League and the Whalley Minor Fast Pitch Association. “Ball gives kids the experience of being a part of something positive with other kids and making lifelong friends,” says Lavaughn Larson, President of Whalley Minor Fast Pitch. “They not only develop physical skills and gain confidence and fitness, they are also active in the community by being part of a larger group and interacting with others. Many of our kids who graduate from the minors come back to give back by coaching. Ball becomes like an extended family.” The Whalley Minor Fast Pitch Association has been offering fun, fitness, and friendship for over forty years for kids 3-18. From wee ones’ running games and honking bases to senior players with lightening moves, they progress through each level under the care of community coaches trained by the league. Free conditioning clinics are held weekly at a local school to keep them connected and fit between seasons.

Eagles triumph in fight-filled contest Junior A team wins two of three on weekend road trip

by Nick Greenizan A WEEKEND road swing through the Coastal

Conference didn’t start well for the Surrey Eagles, but it finished on a high note, with a fight-filled 5-0 win over the Cowichan Valley Capitals Sunday. Surrey’s sniper Brad McGowan led the way Sunday with a four-point effort – which vaulted him back into the lead of the B.C. Hockey League scoring race – and Dale Hunt had a hat trick, with one goal coming at even-strength, one on the power play and one shorthanded. Michael Stenerson rounded out the scoring for Surrey. Surrey’s backup netminder Andrew Hunt, a Delta native, stopped all 39 shots he faced to earn his first career shutout. But the offensive exploits and the rookie netminder’s performance were overshadowed by fisticuffs, which started with a scrum behind the Eagles’ net late in the second period – just a minute after Hunt’s third goal of the night – and spilled over into the third. With less than three minutes to go in the second frame, Eagles’ Beau Orser was tagged with a five-minute boarding major, fighting major and a game misconduct, while teammate Daniel Gentzler also received a 10-minute misconduct. Cowichan, meanwhile, saw Devin Dambrauskas ejected and also given a five-minute slashing penalty, while Clayton Chessa – a former Eagle – and Alex Marchinew also received 10-minute misconducts. The whole situation took the on-ice officials more than 10 minutes to sort out,

and things didn’t calm down much after the second intermission, either. Eagles blue-liner Linden Saip and Capitals’

Jordan Grant – who was ejected – dropped the gloves just 39 seconds into the third, and Surrey’s Robert Lindores and Cowichan’s

Surrey Eagles forward Beau Orser (left) is checked by Nanaimo Clipper Brodie Jamieson during Saturday’s B.C. Hockey League game at Frank Crane Arena. The Eagles won 2-1 in overtime.

Alex Halloran fought at the 1:28 mark, with Lindores receiving additional penalties for a blow to the head. Rounding out the rough stuff, Surrey forward Jeff Vanderlugt fought Matt Cassidy at the six-minute mark, before things settled down for good. Saturday’s contest, a 2-1 overtime victory over the Nanaimo Clippers, was far less complicated. McGowan again led the team with two goals, including the overtime winner just 42 seconds into the extra frame. McGowan’s goal came after Nanaimo coughed up the puck at the Eagles’ blueline, which led to a Surrey offensive rush. Nanaimo netminder Charles Alexy-Premont stopped the initial shot, but McGowan deposited the rebound. While the Eagles snuck out of Nanaimo with a much-needed two points, they had no such luck Friday against the league-leading Powell River Kings, who clobbered the visiting Birds 5-1. Powell River potted four goals in the first period and led 5-0 after 40 minutes. Vanderlugt finally got the Eagles on the board 15:01 into the third period, but the game was already out of reach by then. St. Laurent started the game, but lasted just 8:30 – stopping just four of seven shots – before being yanked in favour of Hunt, who stopped 38 of 40 the rest of the way. The Eagles, who are back on the road this Friday and Saturday – they play Victoria and Alberni Valley – are third in the Coastal Conference with a record of 27-15-1-2. They’re just one point back of the Chiefs, whom they host at South Surrey Arena this Sunday at 4 p.m.

Book documenting Delta’s ﬁrst council meetings presented to mayor for archives by Kristine Salzmann GUESTS WERE briefly drawn back in

time for a delightful surprise at the official opening of Delta’s new community archives on Friday, Jan. 7. Mayor Lois Jackson, wearing period costume along with her fellow councillors, unveiled a handwritten book documenting the first municipal council meetings in Delta. The piece was donated by resident Tony Wideski, who had recently presented the book to the mayor after storing it for the past 40 years. It contains the minutes of the very first Delta council meeting on the evening of Jan. 12, 1880 through to March 1887. Jackson donned white gloves to handle the donation and placed it in a display case by the entrance of the archives. “We graciously accept this wonderful gift from you,” she said to Wideski. “This is a humbling moment for all of us ladies and gentlemen, because this book is the beautifully handwritten record from the first municipal council meetings of the Corporation of Delta.”

The new community archives was standing room only at the ceremony, with many on hand to honour respected Delta fixture Edgar Dunning, who passed away at 100 years old in October, after whom the archives’ new reading room is named. His 101st birthday would have been the day of the opening. The archives was moved from the basement of the historic 1912 Delta Museum building in Ladner Village to a renovated space in the former Delta courthouse at 4450 Clarence Taylor Crescent. The new home has been built to protect the Delta Museum and Archives Society’s rich collection of historical documents as well as the Corporation of Delta’s records from changes in temperature, humidity and light. The $675,000 project was completed with funding from the municipality, province and federal government, which each provided $225,000 through the Infrastructure Stimulus Fund. The new archives are open to the public Tuesday to Saturday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. reporter@southdeltaleader.com

Free presentation on Jan. 22 WOULD YOU like to save money on your medications?

With today’s rising healthcare costs, more of us are having a tough time paying for much-needed medications. As these costs continue to rise, it is important to find low cost drugs and/or ways to reduce these costs. If you have a chronic illness and take several medications, the costs may become a serious burden on both you and your family. Many chronic medical conditions can require a patient to take drugs to alleviate symptoms and to keep pain under control. Drugs can also reduce the chance of recurrence for patients who experience a life-threatening illness and increase chances of remission. Unfortunately though, these medications can also be very costly. Even if the patient has prescription medication coverage, the coverage may be limited in scope and not all medications are covered. A new report from Consumer Reports last Jas Cheema year found that some people are having trouble affording their prescription drugs and have taken dangerous steps as a result. The survey, released last March, found that people have taken steps such as not filling prescriptions, skipping dosages and cutting pills in half without the approval of their doctor, and even sharing prescriptions with a friend to help manage their costs. There are ways to save money on these medications. Your first step is to speak with your doctor about your financial concerns. Your doctor will be more willing to write a prescription for a generic medication or change your therapy to a less-expensive alternative if she knows that you are concerned about money. In this month’s Caregiver Education Session, Dr. Peter Tong, Pharmacist with Pharmasave-Grandview Corners, will give expert advice in his talk “How to save money on medications,” a talk focusing on how to stretch your dollar – without compromising your family’s health. This session will take place at the Amendia Seniors’ Community at 13855 68Ave. on Saturday, Jan. 22. Registration begins at 9:30 a.m., with the presentation running from 10-11 a.m. This is a free session open to all but pre-registration is required, so call to reserve your seat: 604-531-9400 or email jcheema@ comeshare.ca.

WINTER SIGN ME UP! Kids exercise all the time without even thinking of it. Just being active, like running around in the playground or playing kickball at school, is a kind of exercise. It seems like they are always on the move when they are outside playing with friends, plus their imagination is in full gear. Two good things imagination and movement, good for more than physical body fitness. The brain responds well to this kind of activity. What else counts as exercise? Playing sports, dancing, doing push-ups, and even reaching down to touch your toes.

WINTER SIGN ME UP! Why indoor sports? The best indoor sports activities can be defined as the top indoor sports that are the most fun, but also work multiple muscle groups. In areas with cold or rainy winters, indoor sports activities can be one of the top ways to maintain your workouts. What are the best indoor sports activities for exercise? Racquetball, basketball, ice skating, hockey, weight lifting, volleyball, boxing, MMA, dancing, soccer, gymnastics and yoga. Joining an indoor sports club (youth or adult) can be a good way of socializing, meeting new people and making new friends. It is a great opportunity to have a relaxing time with your family, friends and even colleagues which helps building up a friendly atmosphere at your school or workplace as well. www.surreygym.com
