Plastic money on the way

Canada to combat counterfeiting with new polymer bank notes by Kevin Diakiw
“A huge cheer goes up, like a big roar, and you go, ‘yeah, I wanna get one of those’.”
NEW PLASTIC bank notes will be
hitting the market this November, as the Canadian treasury ramps up action against counterfeiting. A sneak peek of the new bills took place in Surrey on Monday. The $100 bill, which will be released this November, has two transparent areas on the note. Looking through the smaller one at a single source of light, numbers appear that correspond with the value of the bill. The larger transparent area has a picture of the House of Commons and numbers in holographic image, which is extremely complicated to reproduce. The $100 bill, like its predecessor, has a picture of Sir Robert Borden, the prime minister between 1911 and 1920, while two-time prime minister William Lyon Mackenzie King remains on the $50 bill.

AWASH WITH disappointment over the Vancouver Canucks’ Game 7 loss that robbed them of the Stanley Cup, 15-year-old Ian Welch was gazing out an apartment window in the downtown core when he saw the crowd. He and five friends headed down to the street to join the masses. It was 1994, and Welch was about to become swept up in a Vancouver riot. He remembers half the crowd was cheering that the Canucks made it that far into the playoffs. At the same time, a growing section of the mob was becoming increasingly aggressive, shouting out conspiracies about the NHL fixing the game. Young and impressionable, he began to believe the conspiracies, and got angry. The crowd began kicking over garbage cans, pushing over mailboxes and throwing bottles. After each act of violence, there were cheers for the perpetrators. “Once somebody starts it, everybody gets on board with it,” the Cloverdale resident said in an interview with The Leader. “A huge cheer goes up, like a big roar, and you go, ‘yeah I wanna get one of those.’ So you break a window and you get a big cheer.” He kept his aggression focused on inanimate objects, breaking windows, kicking over trash cans and vandalizing cars. Down deep, he said, you know what Ian Welch you’re doing is wrong, but you don’t give it much thought. “You know the difference between right and wrong, that’s ingrained,” Welch said, but added the adrenaline rush from just being there grabbed hold of him. “Your head is pounding, and the only thing is trying to get that adrenaline out or that anger out, so you kick something.” He began pushing over mail boxes and throwing the beer bottles that were strewn along the ground. He was cheered. He broke windows and joined in with others to flip cars. More cheers. The crowd he was with quickly grew from six to 25 people. Welch stayed downtown for three hours, intoxicated by the energy of the crowd.

The psychology of a riot Splitting up party may have prevented violence: Expert
From page 1
by Jeff Nagel VANCOUVER’S RIOT might have been averted if celebrants were steered to alternate fan zones distributed across the Lower Mainland rather than being concentrated downtown, a retired expert on sports riots argues. “They invited 100,000 people to attend this, which I think was a big mistake,” said Gordon Russell, a social psychologist from the University of Lethbridge who now lives in B.C. He cited his past research that roughly three per cent of people who attend large sports events have a predisposition to fight or spark trouble and many of them have anti-social or psychopathic tendencies. Russell said that means 3,000 people in the Vancouver crowd could be expected to be prone to violence and what happened should not have come as a surprise. “I would have told them not to invite everybody to Seymour Street,” he said. “Split them up. Have five celebrations.” Surrey and Abbotsford did Gordon have their own celebration Russell sites, but Russell said three more in places like Richmond and other parts of Metro Vancouver could have helped, coupled with a reduced emphasis on the downtown party. Dividing up the problem would make policing it easier, he said. “Use sites in wide open areas, not jammed into narrow city streets,” he added. Russell said Vancouver organizers could easily have had a different nightmare on their hands – a
Welch: Now remorseful
“It’s a setting for a panic when people are confined like that.”

(She did not set it on fire). stampede – because of the dense concentration of revellers. “It’s a setting for a panic when people are confined like that,” he said. “If a bomb or incendiary device goes off nearby you could have a major panic there instead
of a riot.” Scores of people have died before at European soccer stadium or concert stampedes, he said. He said it seemed the Vancouver organizers were aiming for some sort of attendance record.
Fighters in a riot tend to be young single males who are angry, disaffected and on the outskirts of society, Russell said, but added there’s much more to it than that stereotype. See 1994 / Page 5
He had no regrets on the way home, the adrenaline still coursing through his veins. He just wanted to head back downtown for more. Welch said he felt no remorse until three years later when his first child was born. Now Welch is 32 and his son Cole is 14. He now fully understands the mistakes made as a youth and wants to do whatever he can to keep his son from repeating them. “I don’t think I ever truly understood what pride was until my kids were born,” Welch said. He is taking the risk of going public because he thinks people should be aware of how fast mob mentality can kick in, and how easy it is to get swept up in violence. “I don’t think in 1994 that anyone planned on rioting. It had a feeling of spontaneity to it,” Welch said. Fast forward to 2011. Welch went downtown last Wednesday with his wife and her two friends to take in the Canucks’ Stanley Cup Game 7 against the Boston Bruins. He warned the group ahead of time that if the celebration appeared to be going south at all, they were going to go home. The first thing he noticed was the size of the crowd; way too many people for a space that size, he thought. After the first Boston goal, the crowd became agitated and bottles started flying. By the time Boston scored its third goal, Welch began hearing disturbing comments from the crowd. “This town is going to burn, let’s burn this city down, this is bulls--t, I can’t believe the Canucks are losing,” he remembers hearing. “People were getting upset.” Welch heard threats of violence coming from boys, girls, men and women. “I’ve been reading that it’s young men... there were girls in there just as much as young men were,” Welch said. Welch and his wife were on a SkyTrain by the third period and home in Surrey just after the game. By then the riot was in full swing, and they watched events unfold on TV. Cole watched as well, and Welch had a message for him. “This is where your own decisionmaking comes into play,” Welch told his son. “You know if you stay, even if you’re just watching, you can be dragged into it.” If the Canucks are in the same position next year, and there is a celebration site available and Cole chooses to go there, Welch won’t stop him. He’ll just ask him to remember what he’s learned.
Scott Road SkyTrain station to be wheelchair accessible Will end need to shuttle people from bus loop to elevator by Jeff Nagel WORK IS now underway on a new

wheelchair-accessible elevator on the west side of Scott Road SkyTrain station in Surrey. The $5.1-million project is to be finished in 2012 with cost-sharing grants from the federal and provincial government. “Installing a west-side elevator at Scott Road Station was the number-one priority identified in our consultations with the Access Transit Users Advisory Committee,”
said Fred Cummings, president of TransLink’s SkyTrain subsidiary. “As the station grew into a transit exchange, the bus loop was separated from the accessible entrance by a roadway, and TransLink has had to call for a cab to take these customers from the buses to the elevator. Now we can take another step to make the system accessible for all.” At the official project launch Friday was Al Cleaver, former Surrey fire chief and former member of the Access Transit Users Advisory
Committee, who has been an energetic advocate for the new elevator for many years. The Scott Road project is the latest step in a 30-year process to achieve full accessibility in public transit on the Lower Mainland. The glass-and-steel construction is similar to the type used when Commercial-Broadway Station was renovated and upgraded in 2009, and will help Scott Road meet Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design guidelines. jnagel@surreyleader.com

New bills: Will last longer From page 1
New to the $100 bill are images of Canada’s role as a pioneer in medicine for the discovery of insulin and the invention of the pacemaker. The $50 note, which will be released in March, 2012, displays the image of the Canadian Coast Guard Ship Amundsen in the North, reflecting this country’s role in Arctic research. The remaining Canadian bills will be released subsequently, beginning with the $20 note at the end of next year and the remaining in 2013.
The cost of the transition to the new notes include $20 million in research and development. It will also cost 19 cents to produce each bill, as opposed to the 10 cents apiece for those already in circulation. The new bills are expected to last 2.5 times as long as their predecessors, reducing processing costs and impact on the environment. For more information visit www.bankofcanada. ca/banknotes

About seven per cent of people pack up and leave at the first sign of violence, he said,
while up to 19 per cent become “peacemakers” trying to calm or restrain rioters and the largest group – about 60 per cent – will simply stand around and watch. An investigator who examined the 1994 Stanley Cup riots in Vancouver said key recommendations he provided then were ignored this time. Bob Whitelaw said the failure to enforce a no-parking

RIOT JUSTICE
Costly promises
RAESIDE
I
n just one short week since the 2011 Stanley Cup riot in downtown Vancouver, remarkable strides have already taken place. First, citizens banded together to “take back their streets,” showing up in the tens of thousands Thursday morning to help clean up the destruction left behind by the out-of-control thugs the night before. An “wall of hope” was created on the plywood boarding up The Bay and other stores that were blatantly looted by gleeful hooligans, with scores of contributors sharing the angst and embarrassment of watching their beloved city become so badly tarnished on the world stage. In unprecedented fashion, users of social media united to “out” those who trashed property, beat up bystanders and torched police cars. The “name and shame” campaign has resulted in several arrests, and in some cases, prompted rioters to turn themselves in to police. Officials are vowing those responsible for the numerous criminal acts that took place and the estimated millions of dollars in damage incurred will be punished to the full extent of the law. With the work of a new Integrated Riot Investigation Team involving officers from across the region, along with a dedicated team of Crown prosecutors, Premier Christy Clark promises to pursue criminal charges “wherever possible and appropriate.” (See her letter, opposite page). There’s just one not-so-small problem with all this positive response: The justice system itself. Chronically underfunded for nearly a decade, B.C.’s courts are on the brink of collapse. Just last week, a murder in Richmond and a home invasion in North Vancouver were among the latest cases delayed due to a desperate shortage of sheriffs. Other trials have been postponed in recent months in Richmond, Victoria, Nanaimo and the Okanagan. And at least four additional criminal cases were put on hold over the past two weeks in Vancouver Provincial Court. In fact across the province, thanks to shortages of sheriffs, judges, prosecutors and legal aid lawyers, more than 2,100 criminal cases are now at risk of being tossed out of court due to delays that threaten to violate the accused’s right to be tried within a reasonable time. But the B.C. Liberals have remained steadfastly stubborn. As outlined in The Leader’s special series earlier this year – Justice Denied – despite a chorus of voices calling for an emergency infusion of cash to unclog the system, another $14.5 million is being cut from the courts this year, followed by a funding freeze for the next two years, until 2014. While Clark has pledged to provide the money necessary to catch, charge and prosecute the rioters, with the respect to the latter, no dollar figure has emerged. Were she to walk the talk, Clark would need to bring her pocketbook. Critics estimate it would cost roughly $25 to $30 million a year in additional funding to bring court staffing up to the level it was six years ago –as well as forestall further cuts currently planned. That amounts to roughly a six-per-cent increase in the $458-million operating budget of the attorney general’s ministry – a figure described by advocates as barely a rounding error in terms of the multi-billion-dollar health care budget. The public response to last week’s riot suggests the time is ripe to funnel much-needed cash into the courts. All that’s required now is the political will.

The clean-up will take two years, but first there will be a provincial election to decide who holds the broom and dustpan. And the choices are becoming clear. You have a new B.C. Liberal leader who has tacked to the centre on the minimum wage and business taxes in an effort to seek forgiveness for the high-handed administration that lost the public’s trust. And you have two Opposition parties that are entirely reactionary in their approach to today’s fast-changing world. There isn’t much to say at this point about the B.C. Conservatives under John Cummins. They are against modern treaty settlements, the carbon tax and (I think) the HST. They stand for lower taxes, but so far that doesn’t include a reduced sales tax rate.

B.C. Conservative stump. The Green party is the only one other than the B.C. Liberals that looks to the future. Perhaps too far in the future. The Greens want a dramatically increased carbon tax and a transition to a “steady state” economy that doesn’t try to produce and consume more. Try eliminating poverty with that. I frequently get letters from people who accuse me of parroting the government’s line on issues such as the HST and poverty. If there are political alternatives out there that make actual sense in today’s world, I’d love to hear about them. Until then, these are the choices. Any day now, NDP leader Adrian Dix might start to unveil the positive alternative he has promised for an election that may come this fall. That will be something to examine closely. Right now, he’s urging you to throw that chair.

Rioters: Garbage in, garbage out THE VANCOUVER rioters are an
No sense of responsibility
example of a spoiled, binge-drinking generation raised on violent movies, foul language and filthy music. Garbage in, garbage out! No respect for themselves or others. Why do you think most of them didn’t care they were being filmed as they looted and damaged? Well, because they know nothing or little will happen to those identified and caught. Perhaps a slap on the wrist? A few hours of community service? Mom and dad will pay for their lawyer and the rest of us law-abiding citizens will pay for the police service, court service, clean-up and all other related costs. What ever happened to paying the consequences for your actions?

standably embarrassed and disappointed by last Wednesday night’s activities. It should have been a celebration of the tremendous effort by the Canucks in their playoff run. It turned into a shameful display of behaviour by people bent on violence. The vast majority of citizens gathered and dispersed peacefully, but sadly they also witnessed the mayhem. There were also Good Samaritans there: people who had the guts to stand up for what is right and citizens who showed up the morning after to help with the clean-up. These people deserve our thanks. They are the ones who will define our city and our province. The police and firefighters had a very difficult job and their hard work is appreciated. The clean-up crews and businesses have all worked hard to restore the downtown core. Based on the Olympics, Vancouverites hoped and expected we were past the type of destruction we saw in 1994. It’s very disappointing. We will work with the City of Vancouver to review what we can learn from this. I want to be very clear: this is not who we are. We will not let this band of criminals define us. None of us want to live in the kind

We are going to send a strong message of deterrence: if you played a part in this, we have a mountain of evidence and that evidence will be used by authorities to support criminal charges. Members of the public can help the police and Crown prosecutors by submitting any photos, videos or other evidence they may have. Vancouver police are asking people to email their photos and videos to robbery@vpd.ca, or post information through Twitter at #VPD. Citizens have also come together to create their own social media sites to share information and images of troublemakers. The police will monitor these sites closely as part of their efforts to gather evidence. Criminal charges will be pursued wherever possible and appropriate. If you are responsible, we will hold you responsible. Your family, friends and employers will know. We will ensure we have the resources to do this.

Planned violence I LEFT quite cynical and disap-
pointed as a young man in 1994 after the squeaker defeat of the Canucks by the Rangers. I experienced an irrepressible notion that I had just watched the closest that the Canucks would ever come to winning the Stanley Cup. Thus, I held virtually no hope for Game 7, and little hope of a happy ending to that Vancouver night. On the Canada Line, during the train ride to Bridgeport SkyTrain Station, I overheard some young adult males mentioning breaking glass and looting, all of which left me more assured than ever that there very possibly would be a repeat of the ’94 riot or worse. Indeed, the cliché-to-be that the rioters were not “true” Canucks’
Hockey desensitizes WHY ARE we all so surprised at the inevitable lawlessness in Vancouver last Wednesday night? Hockey culture demands we glorify violence in this so-called sport. Blatant legalized violence and rage portrayed by professional hockey players desensitizes a culture to brute violence. If a man punches someone in the face in the street they can be arrested, jailed and have a criminal record for life. But, before millions of adoring Canuck fans, players assault the opposing team and vice versa and they are worshipped? Bizarre. As we continue to desensitize our kids and promote violence through hockey, B.C. will reap what it sows. Andrew King Surrey
post Stanley Cup riot in the streets of Vancouver – ostensibly because the Canucks lost. The apparent sociopaths that wreaked such havoc and mayhem in the streets did so, I believe, because of a surfeit of freedom without a sense of responsibility. If parents, for whatever reasons, abrogate the task of instilling responsibility in their children, then it becomes the task of society at a later stage to instill it through legal channels. Unfortunately. we live in a society where we don’t adequately punish miscreants, which, at that stage of their lives, is the only way they can understand a sense of responsibility. I wait with baited breath to see what will be done with those borderline psychopaths when, or if, they are finally brought to justice. Will it be house arrest or community service – or something more appropriate to the crime? Jon Christensen, Surrey
Losing part of the game WE ARE generally very disap-
pointed that the Canucks lost the final game. But worse was what happened in downtown Vancouver afterwards. These bad hooligans seem to have gone prepared and planned to create this disturbance. They would have done the same thing even if Canucks had won the cup. I hope the law will act tough against these bad elements and punish them for their crimes. Winning or losing is part of the game. There are so many teams in the NHL and only one can win the Stanley Cup. Just to be in the finals is a big achievement for the Canucks. Unfortunately Boston played better this day and won the game. We congratulate the Bruins for winning the cup and at the same time thank the Canuck players for giving us two months of exciting playoff hockey. The Canucks will try it even harder next year and win the Stanley Cup for Vancouver.

had a very interesting discussion about the Stanley Cup final and what happened after the game in Vancouver. My Grade 2 students shared their thoughts and feelings and then wrote letters to the Canucks wanting them to know they were still their fans even after their loss. They were concerned the Canucks’ were feeling bad and wanted to send words of encouragement. Many important lessons were learned in our discussion about sportsmanship and what it means to be a responsible fan and citizen. The following is one such letter from a student: Dear Canucks, Congratulations for getting to the Stanley Cup final and working so hard. I am very proud of you guys. Watching you
guys made me feel proud that I am a Canuck. You are the best team in the entire universe! You guys taught me that no matter what sport you play you should try your hardest and never give up no matter how much you are loosing by. Even when you get benched you still are very special to me. I am sorry that some of the people were acting very silly after the game. I felt really sad that they were acting that way and did not show good sportsmanship. They were not being very good citizens. Remember that I’ll always be your NUMBER ONE fan! Have a great summer with your family! From Paige, Grade 2 Student , Surrey Centre Elementary School. Alison Gordon

looked that the vast majority of the rioters are young (many teenage) males – the same demographic that has been responsible for most violent crimes ever since record-keeping began. They have the highest levels of testosterone they ever will have. One hundred years ago, these young men would be out in the work force or raising families. If they did riot, it would be for higher wages or better working conditions. However, in our modern society, we have created the “teenager� (this term has only been around since the 1930s). Our high school system and laws put them in a limbo state between childhood and adulthood. They live at home with their parents. They want to feel like they have control over their
activities. Maybe the problem is not simply a lack of spirituality, an excess of capitalism, or bad parenting. Maybe it’s that our whole societal structure treats young men, and young people, like children for far too long. Rob Brownridge

Lack of sheriffs delays more criminal trials ‘Desperate’ situation puts justice at risk: Lawyers
by Jeff Nagel
PA L O O Z A ! SAT, JUNE 25 | 11am-2pm CLOVERDALE ATHLETIC PARK 6330 168TH STREET
A MURDER in Richmond and a home invasion in North Vancouver are among the latest court cases delayed due to a shortage of sheriffs that has intensified after cutbacks took effect this month. A B.C. Supreme Court Judge last Tuesday suspended the trial of Gurpal Singh Brar, accused in the 2006 killing of a co-worker at a Richmond manufacturing plant, because no full-time sheriff was available. That followed a pause

positions. That’s on top of the loss of nearly 100 sheriffs – almost 20 per cent of the workforce – by attrition over a four-year hiring freeze. Because of the backlog in B.C.’s court system, suspending and rescheduling a trial can mean a delay of several months to a year – potentially putting cases at risk of being thrown out if the eventual wait is found to violate the accused’s right to be tried within a reasonable time. Other cases have been postponed in recent months in Richmond, Victoria, Nanaimo and the Okanagan, according to the union representing sheriffs. At least four additional criminal cases were postponed over the past two weeks in Vancouver Provincial Court at 222 Main Street, said Dean Purdy of the B.C. Government and Service Employees Union. “Deputy sheriffs couldn’t be provided for security, so the judges have put all those trials off as well,” he said. “We’re pleased to see judges are stepping up and refusing to run their court rooms in that manner because it’s unsafe.” The Attorney General’s ministry has said courthouse safety and security is a top priority but the deployment of sheriffs is subject to budget restraints. But this week Premier Christy Clark vowed to tackle the issue. “British Columbians want to know the people who’ve committed crimes pay the consequences for those crimes,” she said. Attorney-General Barry Penner has since agreed to meet with the BCGEU June 28 to discuss sheriff staffing issues. February’s provincial budget approved cuts totaling $14.5 million for court services, prosecution services and the judiciary, despite a 2010 report from provincial court judges warning more than 2,000 criminal cases are at risk of being quashed due to excessive delays. B.C. has 12 per cent fewer provincial court judges than in 2005 despite rising caseloads and complexities.

Minor local floods But Fraser River still below alert stage by Jeff Nagel SOME LOW-LYING areas
that aren’t protected by dikes from the high waters of the Fraser River are experiencing some localized flooding. Affected areas include the Kwantlen First Nation reserve at Fort Langley. B.C. River Forecast Centre head Dave Campbell said the lower Fraser is still well below levels at which frequent dike inspections and other flood precautions would normally begin to kick in. That’s typically around the six-metre mark at the Mission gauge, which was at 5.6 metres last Wednesday afternoon. (Evacuations in diked areas would typically be triggered at 7.6 metres). The river has been either holding steady or subsiding slightly in the past few days, Campbell said. But he noted high tides are expected in the next two days, which could push water levels above what they would otherwise be in some areas around Surrey or further downstream. The volume of water moving in the Fraser at Hope is around 9,400 cubic metres per second, which is slightly above the typical peak flow for any given year of 8,700. Campbell said the Fraser was expected to reach 10,000 cubic metres per second during this spring freshet, but that so far hasn’t happened. The snowpack feeding the river’s watershed was at 120 per cent of normal May 1, meaning there was some risk of flooding in the Lower Mainland if hot weather caused a fast melt-off. But so far the moderate temperatures have avoided that possibility and Campbell said flooding is unlikely, barring an intense hot spell, possibly coupled with rain, over the next two weeks. “We’ve had pretty modest weather this past week,� he said. “And the forecast is for continued modest weather.� jnagel@surreyleader.com

breakthrough yet in the impasse between Metro Vancouver and Coquitlam council over the proposed regional growth strategy after two days of dispute resolution talks. Coquitlam is the sole hold-out city after every other municipality agreed to sign the master plan governing growth in the region
Coquitlam’s proposed solution is to lower the bar for a review to a one-third vote of the Metro board, which Stewart said would allow 15 smaller cities representing a million-plus residents to force a re-think of the strategy. “It’s a 30-year document,” Stewart said. “We’ve got a serious concern with that.” Coquitlam’s other worries about

for decades to come. Coquitlam Mayor Richard Stewart warned smaller cities may be locked in with no way out, despite a requirement the Metro board consider reviewing the plan every five years. Vancouver, Surrey and Burnaby together hold a majority of Metro board votes and could block a review indefinitely, he said during Thursday’s meeting with Metro reps.

Public Notice Main entrance to Surrey Memorial Hospital moving to east side The north entrance and lobby to Surrey Memorial Hospital, accessed from 96 Avenue, is currently under construction. Work is under way for a new public entrance to the hospital on the south side of the hospital, off 94A Avenue, to open in July. Due to several construction projects in the area, we recommend that patients and visitors to the hospital allow themselves extra time to find parking before their appointments. Thank you for your patience as we embark on the largest renovation and expansion of Surrey Memorial Hospital since it was founded in 1959. For more information, email nancy.painter@fraserhealth.ca to sign up for our monthly e-newsletter, or visit fraserhealth.ca>About Us>Building for Better Health>Surrey Memorial Hospital.
From page 13 the plan may be eased by better assurance of a review if there are major problems in the first five years, he said. Debate ensued over whether a lower threshold is even legal under provincial legislation governing regional growth plans. “Fifty per cent plus one has forever been the balance,” said Metro chair Lois Jackson. “Can you imagine going to the provincial government
and saying 33 per cent for the HST to pass?” She said Coquitlam should not fear a “gangup” of the big three cities against smaller ones, adding the region’s politicians routinely work cooperatively to ensure concerns get addressed. The issue was shelved when Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie – a lawyer and Metro’s rep in the talks – said Metro won’t agree to a lower threshold even if it proves legal. “To lower the
threshold is not on,” Brodie said. “That’s part of democracy, you do things on the basis of 50 per cent plus one.” Nor is it clear Metro could legally bend to another Coquitlam wish to change landuse designations for redevelopment on just a one-third vote of the board if two-thirds of the local council support the change. Metro reps said that would let cities convert industrial land to waterfront condos in breach

There will still be a wheelchairaccessible entrance nearby, via ramp from the adjacent parkade, for patients attending units in that area. The main hospital entry will now be located at the east side of the hospital near the BC Cancer Agency Fraser Valley Centre, accessed from 138 Street. The temporary east main entrance will be in effect for approximately 18 months as we build a new twostorey lobby off of 96 Avenue, as part of Surrey Memorial Hospital redevelopment and expansion.

of the plan with a much lower vote of board directors, undermining the goal of conserving industrial lands. “This was our attempt at presenting some kind of check and balance,” Coquitlam city manager Peter Steblin replied. “There may be other ways.” But on other fronts, progress was made. Coquitlam wanted tougher performance measures to gauge how well the plan works. Metro reps agreed that can be done – without an actual amendment to the plan – through the regional district’s annual budget process and annual report on growth strategy compliance. Both sides agreed to schedule more meetings. But Jackson said they can’t go on indefinitely. “Let’s fish or cut bait,” she said. It’s feared a long delay will drag the issue past the next civic elections and potentially unravel the accord if newly elected councils object to it.
Arsonist sought by Kevin Diakiw
POLICE ARE looking for an arsonist that set blaze to a North Surrey apartment building in the middle of the night this month. At 3 a.m. on June 4, someone entered the main floor of an apartment building at 14930 108 Ave., spread an accelerant and lit the place on fire. The blaze quickly spread to the stairway, blocking the exit for anyone on the floors above. Fire crews arrived minutes later, and Deputy Fire Chief Dan Barnscher said
Monday the first task was to get people off the balconies. By 3:39 a.m., fire crews had the fire out and everyone brought to safety. No one was harmed in the fire. Barnscher said the owner of the apartment building was key in helping displaced residents find new lodging. Police are still looking for the person who started the fire. If you witnessed anything out of the ordinary, call Surrey RCMP Const. Colin MacDonell at 778-593-3106 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Looking back on the good old days
Fifteen members of the graduating class of 1946 from Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary gathered for a reunion at the Northview Golf and Country Club last week.
Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary’s class of ‘46 reunites by Evan Seal WHEN CLARENCE Heppel thinks back to his high school years, the former CEO of Save-onFoods has nothing but fond memories. “We didn’t have anything, but we had a wonderful life,” said the 82-year-old graduate of Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary School’s class of 1946. Heppel was one of just over 40 graduates that year – 15 of which spent Wednesday afternoon (June 15) at Northview Golf and Country Club reminiscing about childhoods spent in rural Cloverdale. In the 1940s, students attending Lord Tweedsmuir (it was
called Surrey High School then and was located on Highway 10 and 178 Street), came from all over the city, either walking up to five kilometres one way or hopping a ride from as far away as central Surrey with school bus driver Walter Huff. Graduate John Woodward can still list off all the names of his classmates, teachers and school principals with the ease and cadence of a military roll call. One thing the group agreed upon was the fun they experienced and the respect they had for their school, their teachers and their community – something they feel is lacking today. See GRADS / Page 18

Grads: Close class has kept in touch From page 17 “Our parents were mostly farmers,” said Woodward. “There was no graffiti at the school, no garbage, we had to work hard for everything we got.” Most worked both before and after school either on the farm or delivering the local newspaper.

students had to take dance lessons instead of playing basketball. “That didn’t sit well with the players, so we went on strike,” Heppel said. “That’s when we had to wash the walls of the gymnasium.” Classmate Elsie Preedy can’t believe how close-knit the class was back then and she credits that closeness for how

Lord Tweedsmuir alumni have kept in touch for so many years. In 1946, many young men had been shipped overseas in prior years during the Second World War, so the grad class that year had few boys. Although most of those left behind were involved in both Air and Army Cadets in school, they luckily just missed the call to war by one year. Having grown up during the Depression, so many of the grads’ early years were influenced by the war effort. “It didn’t do us any harm,” said Woodward. “We had to depend on ourselves.” For fun, Heppel said “we would scrape together enough money for gas and go down to White Rock to watch the girls.” One memorable trip involved travelling into Vancouver for a high school dance. “All the boys there had suits on and here we were in sweaters with holes,” Heppel recalls. “We looked like country bumpkins, but I think we had more fun.” photo@surreyleader.com

THE NEW Cloverdale Recreation Centre has earned a mention on Canadian Architecture magazine’s website for setting a new standard for community recreation facilities. The $22.5-million facility “marks the modern renewal of Cloverdale and its iconic fairgrounds,” the item says, adding the building establishes the tone for the city’s future plans for the Cloverdale Fairgrounds site. The project was completed on time and on budget by CEI Architecture, the article continues, adding it’s the first of six planned for the site by the City of Surrey. “With this building in particular they wanted to make a real announcement about the fairgrounds and its design direction,” CEI Architecture partner Mark Hentze told the magazine. “We were able to use expressive but economical wood forms to complete a very complex, high impact building.” The new recreation centre, located at 6188 176 Street, held its grand opening in early May. It contains two gymnasiums, 10,000 square foot fitness centre, multi-purpose rooms, and seniors centre, and offers programs for children, youth, adults, families and seniors. CEI Architecture also designed the Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre.

2009 – he’s now got the certificate to prove he did it in record time. Last month, Booth

The old record was 30 parks in 26 days, which was set in 2008, the same year Booth tried to set the record the first time, but fell just short. “I hope that since they approved me for this one, that the other one is only a matter of time,” Booth said. “But to have them verify this one, and to actually have the certificate, is very cool. “I feel just awesome about it – not too many people can call themselves Guinness record-holders.” Having the official record to call his own was a great reward for all effort, hard work, planning and stress – not to mention money – that went into chasing the mark. Because while some may consider watching baseball games for a month straight as something of a leisurely pursuit, Booth’s quest was anything but. For starters, the planning alone – making sure you can align your trip to coincide with the right games, in the right cities – takes days. Now, after doing it twice, Booth said he could probably “whip up a schedule in, like, an hour. “You get to know what you’re doing after awhile… I’m battled-tested now,” he laughed. Being on the road is no picnic, either, he said, whether you are planning flights, renting cars or finding a taxi, booking cheap accommodations or worrying about rain delays. And once at the park, Booth needed to document his attendance at each game, which meant keeping all his receipts, getting his photo taken at the stadium, and getting signatures from team staff members to verify his presence. “I literally handed over bags and bags of receipts and other stuff to the Guinness people,” he said. In fact, it is the proof – the personal accounts, signatures, ticket stubs and See BASEBALL / Page 23

the P.A. announcer – to convince the Guinness people he was in fact at the game. Booth said, record aside, one of the best parts about his two journeys has been connecting with fellow “ball park chasers.” The baseball fanatics frequently speak online, sharing stories and tips for easier travel. “The best part is the record – it’s very cool and I’m pretty proud of it – but meeting so many people was just great,” he said. He’s leaned on many of his new acquaintances over the past year,
receipts – that for a time worried Booth during his quest. During the third day of his 2009 trip – a doubleheader between the Milwaukee Brewers and Chicago Cubs – his camera battery died and he was unable to get a photo of himself at the park. In the end, however, he cobbled together enough supporting evidence – including signed affidavits from stadium employees, a concession-stand receipt and a scratchy, cell-phone recording of
“...so I think I might go for that hockey record next.” Doug Booth as he turned his experiences into a book, called The Fastest Thirty Ballgames. His new tome – which is selfpublished by Authorhouse and
available at amazon.ca and www. fastestthirtyballgames.com – is part travelogue and also part guide for those who may attempt a similar whirlwind baseball trip. For the advice portion of the book, Booth canvassed his fellow travellers at ballparkchasers. com, and two of them even have co-author credit for their contributions. “It was a lot of work, but the whole process (of publishing the book) was just fantastic, and I really enjoyed it,” said Booth, who also published two baseball-
themed works of fiction in 2008. With his record in tow, Booth said he plans to “get back to real life for awhile” – including working his job as a courier. He has also done a few interviews in the media, on both XM satellite radio and with MLB TV’s Fan Cave. But while he’s happy to lay low for awhile, he’s not completely ruling out another recordbreaking trip. “I was just talking to a guy who’d done all the NHL games, so I think I might go for that hockey record next,” he said.

Help Your Local Heroes AND WIN BIG Every day throughout British Columbia, thousands of heroes risk their lives to help others. Fire fighter Terry Hughes is one of those heroes – whose job it is to keep others safe, even if it means risking his own safety. He is also a Regional Director of the B.C. Professional Fire Fighters' Burn Fund, where he often meets heroes of another kind – burn survivors. With the loyal support of more than 3,800 fire fighters across the province who volunteer their time – not to mention generous members of the public who donate – the Burn Fund offers a variety of programs to support survivors of all ages. "With our annual summer Burn Camp for kids, we give children survivors a chance to be among their peers and really just enjoy the experience of camp," Hughes said, noting the Burn Fund's reach extends throughout B.C. and the Yukon. "Through the various programs run by the Burn Fund, we give burn survivors the ability to gain confidence and move forward through life." As one of the largest fundraisers for the Burn Fund (www.burnfund.org), Hughes said the money raised by the Hometown Heroes Lottery provides a large and important boost to the fund's programs. "We depend very much upon the Hometown Heroes Lottery," he said. "The funds help us to continue the good work that the Burn Fund does throughout the year, and we couldn't continue without
