SCC candidates named Opposition civic party holds first of two nomination meetings
by Kevin Diakiw THE OPPOSITION party in Surrey civic politics has put some of its candidates in place for the coming fall election. The left-leaning Surrey Civic Coalition (SCC) hopes to secure some seats from the Surrey First-dominated council and Surrey
First Education-ruled Board of Education. The SCC currently holds one seat on each, with veteran councillor Bob Bose and one-term school trustee Ijaz Chatha. On Saturday, SCC nominated Gary Robinson, Rina Gill, Stephanie Ryan and Grant Rice to run for council, while Charlene Dobie, Laurence Greeff, and Moh Chalali
will be SCC’s school trustee candidates. ”The SCC delegates chose a good mix of new and experienced candidates,” said Gord Savard, SCC president. ”Voters will be impressed with what these folks have to offer.” See SCHOOLS / Page 3

innocent victim of the Indo-Canadian gang violence that marred the Lower Mainland a decade ago, will be erecting a fitting tribute to him in the highest-profile of surroundings in Richmond. The 28-year-old was kidnapped and murdered in October of 2001 after leaving his North Surrey bathroom products store. After years of speculation by the media and public that Mander was somehow linked to gangs or the drug trade, police in 2009 finally cleared his name. Police said Mander was simply used as a pawn. “He was an innocent victim Ned Mander caught in the crossfire of a bitter rivalry,” RCMP Sgt. Tim Shields said nearly two years ago. The Mander family, who have lived in Richmond since 1974, recently approached the City of Richmond with the wish to commission the construction of a metal sculpture of a volleyball player in Mander’s name.

Schools: Crowding top issue for SCC From page 1 Gill, Ryan and Rice ran with SCC in 2008, while Robinson, who served on Surrey council from 1987 to 1998, ran as an independent last time. Greeff was an SCC candidate in the last election while Dobie and Chalali are new to civic politics. Chelali ran for the provincial NDP in Surrey-White Rock previously. About 100 people attended the Firefighters Barge Inn nomination meeting Saturday afternoon. Returning candidate Ryan said Monday she believes there are a number of issues that aren’t being addressed by the current council and school board. Prime among those is the number of portables at Surrey’s overcrowded schools. A small elementary school recently re-opened in Clayton, which Ryan said is great, but brings the city only five more classrooms. In the 1990s, Surrey faced the same situation, and council refused to issue any more building permits. Suddenly, developers, builders and realtors were part of a lobbying force Stephanie Ryan to the province that brought this city more school construction. SCC will hold a second nomination meeting at a date to be determined later, likely near Labour Day in September. “Having two nominations is a first for SCC,” said Savard, “but this year, with all the political uncertainty, it made sense for us. We have candidates who couldn’t wait to get out and talk to voters, but this way we can continue to gain momentum and have a second nomination as the November election gets closer.” kdiakiw@surreyleader.com
Driver in fatal crash has been fired Company van ‘had no right to be on the road that night’ by Kevin Diakiw
SHANE MACKICHAN / BLACK PRESS
Police inspect Kassandra Kaulius’ BMW at the scene of last Tuesday’s fatal collision.
THE WOMAN driving the van that killed a popular Surrey athlete has been fired from her job for using a company vehicle without permission. At just after 10 p.m. Tuesday, May 3, the woman, who police believe had been drinking, was driving a van owned by Precision Restoration in Delta when she ran a red light at 152 and 64 Avenue. She smashed into a BMW being driven by 22-year-old Kassandra Kaulius, who was on her way home from a softball game at Cloverdale Athletic Park. Kaulius died at the scene. The 34-year-old Surrey woman driving the van fled into a nearby wooded area after the accident, where police found
her “showing signs of intoxication from alcohol.” Police now confirm the woman had left a friend’s place where she was watching Game 3 of the Canucks-Predators playoff series. RCMP say they continue to be in a heightened state of awareness for anyone who may be drinking during the hockey playoffs and make the unfortunate decision to drive. The woman involved in last week’s crash was driving a company van. The owner of Precision Restoration said the woman was not supposed to have been using the vehicle and has been terminated. Drivers are allowed to drive the vehicles to and from work and to any jobs in between. There were no jobs that night, said owner Randy Klann. “That vehicle had no right to be on the road that evening,” said Klann. “We have a very strict policy with regards to personal use of company vehicles, as well as consumption of alcohol.” The woman, who has not been named publicly, was with See KAULIUS / Page 5

Kaulius: Service on Thursday, May 12 the company for about two years. Klann said he has had no previous complaints about the woman. He was shocked when he got a call from police the night of the accident. “I thought I was dreaming, and it automatically turned into a nightmare,” Klann said. “We really do want to continue to express our sadness for the incident to the family especially. Everybody is devastated by the senseless loss of life.” Kaulius’s sister Miranda said the world lost a magnificent person.
“She was amazing, wonderful, outgoing, energetic, sense of humour,” Miranda said of Kassandra. “Oh man, just take a dictionary and ask for the best words and that would be my sister.” Kaulius was attending the University of the Fraser Valley to become a physicial education teacher. The rest of her time was booked solid. “She coached and played (baseball), she had two jobs, she was going to school,” Miranda said. “Her passion was baseball and family, those were her biggest loves.” RCMP Cpl. Drew Grainger
called the collision “another senseless example of a seeming impaired accident causing death.” The woman has been released from custody, but charges are expected. A scholarship fund has been set up in Kaulius’s name at Coast Capital Savings. Anyone interested in donating can ask for the Kassandra Kaulius Surrey Storm Scholarship at any branch. There will be a Celebration of Life for Kassandra Thursday, May 12 at 1 p.m. at the Christian Life Assembly in Langley at 21277 56 Ave. kdiakiw@surreyleader.com

Mander: Nationally ranked athlete From page 1 Mander was a nationally ranked volleyball player and wore No. 13. “Ned was an amazing person,” brother Dave Mander wrote this week in an e-mail to The Leader’s sister paper, The Richmond Review. “He lit up any room he walked into not just with his stature but his laughter. “I always wanted to create a legacy for my brother, but I couldn’t do it back then because the false accusation of Ned being into drugs constantly hung over
the situation. “Then when the RCMP finally cleared his name and declared him innocent in October 2009, eight years after Ned disappeared, I knew we could finally move forward with a legacy.” The plan calls for the sculpture to be placed inside the Richmond Olympic Oval. The sculpture is to be crafted by artist Cory Fuhr, whose Speed Skater sculpture at the oval is arguably the facility’s most popular work of art. Fuhr said that he’ll spend the next few months on the sculpture,
pounding out each piece in cold steel. The final work should tip the scales at more than 400 pounds. The Mander family plans to unveil the artwork this October, on the tenth anniversary of Ned’s death. Dave Mander said he and his family are thankful for the support of Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie, who helped brainstorm the theme. “Life is still hard for all of us. Ned’s body was never found so there are still so many questions. Without a body, I don’t know that there will ever be true closure. But this

SOCCER FIGHT
Cheering teens should be carded
RAESIDE
O
ne definition of a “teachable moment” goes like this: “that moment when a unique, high interest situation arises that lends itself to discussion of a particular topic.” One such teachable moment occurred at the Burnaby Lake Sports Complex on Friday, during the B.C. boys’ AAA high school championship soccer tournament. The tournament – finally underway after being postponed in November 2010 due to snow – came to an exciting conclusion as Port Coquitlam’s Dr. Charles Best Secondary took the championship, beating North Delta Secondary 3-2 in overtime play. In the testosterone-fuelled aftermath, with emotions running high, a Coquitlam fan ran onto the field and began taunting North Delta spectators. Not a wise move, to be sure, yet what happened next – while perhaps predictable – was unacceptable. The in-your-face fan was grabbed by players and swarmed as spectators spilled onto the field, some of them laying brutal kicks to the young man’s body. Parents and teachers got involved in the melee, trying to stop the violence, but also exchanging heated words with the aggressors. The situation could have easily escalated. The entire sequence of events was captured on camera by Leader photographer Evan Seal. View a slideshow at surreyleader.com And parents? We suggest you do. Scan the crowd of spectators and look for your son or daughter. Are their faces etched with shock, concern and alarm as the beating unfolds? Or are they laughing with glee, raising their hands in the air in support, applauding and cheering as the beating unfolds? As ill-advised as the young man’s conduct was – a lesson he has no doubt painfully learned – encouraging grievous physical harm and senseless violence must always be frowned upon. Frightening things can happen when mob mentality rules. Sorry for your loss, North Delta, but to the teens who took pleasure in another’s pain? Foul conduct, all around.

remier Christy Clark’s shifting position on the Harmonized Sales Tax finally appears to have come to rest. Her government is preparing to “fix the HST,” and the terms of that fix will be made available before people mark their ballots in a mail-in vote in June, Clark told reporters at the legislature last week. There has been a flurry of activity on the HST in recent days, and a few things are becoming clear. Clark and Finance Minister Kevin Falcon are preparing to do what I’ve been saying for months the government must do – make a solemn vow to cut the HST rate to 11 per cent as soon as they can. And in keeping with Clark’s fondness for populist, headline-hunting gestures, the government will also likely rebate the HST on bicycles and bicycle helmets, and possibly fitness club memberships as well. A couple of other “family-first” exemptions may also be gleaned from the town halls, online surveys and polling that are currently going on. A well-known polling firm was in the field

and Vancouver. Bell said his call for the Interior and North Coast had more than 30,000 people on the line. Some were still upset about the HST, while others had misconceptions about what costs it does and doesn’t increase, he said. And lifting the tax from bicycles was a popular choice. I continue to get e-mails from people who are misinformed about the HST. One reader said he is paying it on heating oil. I suggested he check his bill again, and there it was, a rebate for the sevenper-cent provincial portion. The GST applied before and it continues to apply now. These telephone town halls have gone a long way towards putting the discussion on a factual basis. Voters may yet be persuaded to keep the HST.

Health care is lacking in Surrey
THE AMERICANS are our biggest market for our
good and services. They pay 50 per cent more for their private health care than we do for our public health care. Canadian public health care makes our products significantly cheaper to market. This competitive advantage that we enjoy is being lost as more of our health care is privatized. Canada now has the longest hospital waiting lists of all the Organization for Economic Co-
operation and Development. Long public waiting lists for medical tests and diagnostics are forcing people into private clinics for timely care. The increasing number of private for-profit clinics are not easing pressure on the public system but instead they are increasing the wait times for public hospitals as they bleed necessary resources away. Surrey Memorial Hospital Emergency Department currently has 90,000 visits per year with
100,000 visits projected by 2020. We are not building nearly enough to meet even short-term capacity. Surrey has one-fifth of the provincial average of acute care beds. We are grossly under-served. We pay for Tim Horton’s care in Surrey. We are on the U.S. border but we are not yet absorbed. We are in a no man’s land. Let’s renew our fight for Canadian public health care before its just a memory. Patrick O’Connor, Surrey
Reflections on an election... THE FEDERAL Conservative party
won with 167 seats in the House of Commons when it needed only 155 seats for a majority. Where did these seats come from? These additional seats did not come from the four Western provinces. The four Western provinces had a total of 72 Conservative seats before and after this past election. The Harper government lost five seats in Quebec, but gained four of them back in Atlantic Canada and the territories. The additional Conservative party seats came from Ontario, where the Tories went from 51 seats to 73 seats – a gain of 22 seats. That is, the Harper government won a majority without depending on Quebec and the Atlantic provinces. Outside of Quebec, the NDP gained only nine seats. In Quebec, the NDP replaced the Bloc as the winning party. A Pyrrhic victory. Fred Perry Surrey
Not optimistic about the next four years Following the election, in my view we can expect in the next four years: The systematic dismantling of Medicare; oil tankers plying the inner passes of the West Coast; the selling of our water to private American companies (which will then sell that water back to us for a profit); the possible return of capital punishment; no adequate monies allocated for ensuring clean water for Aboriginals on reservations; banks and large multi-national companies getting even more in terms of extraordinary tax breaks; little in the way of consumer protection legislation; continued contempt for Parliament and its rules (and precedent-setting “conventions” of Parliamentary practice); no electoral reform; And U.S. Homeland Security officials defining both border and immigration policies for Canada, diminishing our sovereignty permanently. I am sad that our national collective choice (politically) reflects an attitude and social values that say, “Me first all the way” and also say: money and profit will be the foundation for most ethical decision making in Canada, for at least the next four years.

Sukh Dhaliwal will be missed
Time for online voting WE LIVE in a technologically
THROUGH MY community service
I have had a lot of interaction with politicians in this area. Former Member of Parliament Sukh Dhaliwal has definitely been a go-to-guy. He is one of a few politicians who will open his wallet, as well as his mouth, in support of a good community project. We worked together to raise the money for Operation Remembrance, which placed headstones on the unmarked graves of some 30 First World War veterans, as well as other projects. Sukh, thanks for your commitment to those of us who believe in community service and for putting a very successful business life on hold to be our Member of Parliament. You will be missed. Andrew Block President Delta Pacific Benefit Brokers Ltd.
advanced country in technologically advanced times and yet the polling stations are organized in a manner that would be comparable to Third World countries’ means and abilities. Here we are with the whole world practically online yet we have to vote by standing in line for an hour, prove your identity and address at two different tables, take paper and pencil and place a black X against the candidate of your choice. Why can’t polling be done online? Revenue Canada provides our names and addresses to the election authorities, surely they can design an online voting system tied to your Social Insurance Number and postal code. By providing you with a PIN either online or by mail, the person with that SIN number can only vote once and that would render the PIN number invalid soon after the vote. This way there cannot be duplicate votes. Perhaps if voting was done online,
more eligible people would vote. It is high time to move on to other modern methods. M. Hajee, Surrey
Discriminatory signs I AGREE with A. Bayer’s recent letter about election signs that contain any other language than English or French. This should be a clear violation of election laws and is a blatant act of discrimination against all the other ethnic groups this fair country contains. How dare these so-called candidates slap the rest of us in the face while they obviously pander to a certain group? Any so-called candidate that produced these signs should have to answer in a public forum as to why this was done. Then the rest of us could hear what their intentions are and make an informed decision whether or not they deserve to be in government or run out of town on a rail. Robert Gary Parkes, Port Kells
Minimum wage hike hits hard WHEN CHRISTY CLARK first took
office, she proclaimed herself a premier for working families. Shortly after, she made an announcement increasing the minimum wage within the province. Although I cannot disagree the minimum wage should be increased, I believe the situations this increase affects should have been looked into more. We have two children, and both myself and my wife work. Full-time paid care for our children is a must, as we do not have family who are able to help out. In order to meet our work schedules as well as juggle our kids school times, we decided to have a live-in nanny. The increase in the minimum wage directly hits our pocketbook and will hit it hard. When the wage is increased to $8.75, it costs us an extra $30 a week. Manageable. When the wage will be increased to $10.25, it will cost us an extra $4,680 a year. I can’t speak for everybody else in the province, but neither myself, nor my wife received a wage increase of this amount. There has been no increase to the amount we can deduct for room and board on a weekly basis (it’s higher in Ontario than in B.C.), nor has there been an increase in the amount we can claim for child care expenses. I can only assume that the average cost of daycare within the province will also rise due to these circumstances. We have spoken with other families who share the same concerns, and obviously, nobody is hearing them. Chalk this situation up to one less family vacation or sports program that our family can afford this year. I find it hard to believe the government has not heard of this concern before. Is this going to be addressed, or do we have to accept this much like we have to accept a toll over the new Port Mann Bridge? Brent Colmer

EX-REPORTER Ron Bencze entered not-guilty pleas to multiple child sex charges in Surrey Provincial Court last Wednesday morning. Bencze did not appear in court himself, but had his lawyer enter the pleas on his behalf. The Surrey resident is charged with nine offences involving three victims. The offences are alleged to have taken place between 2001 and 2011. Benze, 44, was first arrested in January, charged with sexual assault, two counts of sexual interference with a person under 16 and two of invitation to sexual touching involving a person under 16. A further four charges – two counts of sexual assault and two counts of sexual interference involving persons under the age of 16 – were laid last month. Bencze, from Surrey, is married with three children. He had been Ron Bencze a reporter with Global TV since 2004, and had more than 20 years experience in the news industry. He was fired from his job at Global TV last month. Bencze is not in custody, but has been ordered not to have any contact with his alleged victims or any other children. An eight-day preliminary inquiry – where a judge decides whether there is enough evidence to proceed to trial – is scheduled for Jan. 24, 2011. – with files from CTV News

Mounties face perjury charges for testimony Little chance of conviction for tasering: Prosecutor by Jeff Nagel THE FOUR RCMP officers involved in the tasering of Polish immigrant Robert Dziekanski in 2007 will all face criminal perjury charges in connection with their testimony about the incident before the Braidwood Inquiry. Special prosecutor Richard Peck made the recommendation – which the province’s criminal justice branch has accepted – after conducting an independent assessment of the allegations of misconduct against the Mounties involved. Peck recommended against laying any other charges for the actual altercation or the ensuing investigation of Dziekanski’s death, concluding there was no substantial likelihood of conviction. The four RCMP officers involved in the October 2007 incident at

Four RCMP members involved in the tasering death of Robert Dziekanski (above) are facing criminal perjury charges. Vancouver International Airport were Cpl. Benjamin “Monty” Robinson, Const. Kwesi Millington, Const. Bill Bentley and Const. Gerry Rundel. Robinson was last month ordered to stand trial on a separate charge of obstruction of justice in connection with the October 2008 crash in Tsawwassen that killed 21-year-old motorcyclist Orion Hutchinson. He
is currently suspended from the RCMP. The other three officers are still working in varying capacities. Special prosecutors are appointed in rare cases to avoid any real or perceived improper influence on decisions of B.C.’s criminal justice branch.

lengthy public inquiry, found the officers’ use of the Taser was unjustified and their later statements included “deliberate misrepresentations” that contradicted the cellphone video evidence recorded by a bystander. The four claimed a combative staplerwielding Dziekanski was advancing and posed an imminent threat to them. Dziekanski, who wandered for hours unaided at the airport before becoming frustrated, was tasered five times and died within minutes of cardiac arrest. Crown had previously decided not to lay charges against the officers involved. SFU criminologist Rob Gordon agrees there was little chance a charge like assault would have stuck. “The Crown would be hard pressed to prove that the four officers in the short time they had with Mr. Dziekanski could have formed the necessary mental intent to kill him or otherwise harm him,” Gordon said. He expects a lengthy perjury case to determine whether the officers, sworn to tell the truth, lied under oath. “It’s a serious offence because it cuts to the heart of the trial process,” Gordon said of the alleged perjury. Dziekanski’s mother Sofia Cisowski said in a statement she was pleased with the charges and hoped “justice will finally be achieved in the death of my son.” The maximum sentence for perjury is 14 years in jail, although nobody had ever received more than six until this January, when Air India bomb-maker Inderjit Singh Reyat was handed a nine-year sentence for lying under oath at the Air India bombing trial. The provincial criminal justice branch has indicated it won’t disclose detailed reasons why other charges weren’t recommended until after the perjury case is finished, in order to protect the integrity of that prosecution. The perjury charges will proceed by direct indictment, meaning there will be no preliminary inquiry. jnagel@surreyleader.com

Jail time reduced for ‘thug’
The Space Acting Studio
Judge didn’t consider rehab efforts, Appeal Court says
9234 Glover Rd, Fort Langley
by Sheila Reynolds A MAN SENTENCED to six years
behind bars for kidnapping, robbing, beating and confining a man in Surrey has had his sentence reduced on the grounds the trial judge didn’t fairly consider his attempts to turn his life around. B.C. Court of Appeal Justice Daphne Smith, backed by Justice Ian Donald and Justice Mary Saunders, reduced Norman Clay Stanton’s 2006 sentence last Monday (May 2). Stanton’s was convicted in connection to a 2001 incident where two men were lured to a suite in Surrey to persuade them to give up their share in a marijuana grow operation. Stanton and another man proceeded to take one man’s vehicle, and confined both men for two-and-a-half hours, during which time one man was physically assaulted. Stanton filed appeals from his convictions and sentence and was released on bail pending his conviction appeal. That appeal was heard March 19, 2010 and
dismissed the following month. He returned to custody April 29, 2010 pending his sentence appeal. The judgment says Stanton, now 43, (he was 34 when the offence occurred) has a criminal record spanning 15 years, but has not been charged with any new offences since 2001. Shortly before his last crime, he had begun to make changes to his life, obtaining his “hoist ticket� which gained him steady employment in construction. Employers, according to the court judgement, described Stanton as “a family man with a positive attitude� and “a dedicated and hard working individual.� The Crown had sought a three- to six-year sentence, while Stanton’s lawyer sought a sentence between 18 months and two years. In imposing his six-year sentence, the trial judge outright rejected Stanton’s efforts to turn his life around. “I am satisfied that I am dealing with a man who, for many years, has presented at least two
faces to the world,� the judge said. “He was a persistent crook, and, in my respectful view, dyed in the wool thug. “In short, there is no sufficient basis for anything more than a pious hope that he has changed his ways.� The Appeal Court justices, however, disagreed with the trial judge’s assessment, saying he erred in failing to consider Stanton’s rehabilitation efforts and imposed an “unfit� sentence that was outside the range of sentences for similar offences. “There was evidence that Mr. Stanton had taken a number of positive steps to distance himself from his previous criminal lifestyle,� wrote Justice Smith in his decision to reduce the jail sentence. “Mr. Stanton was entitled to have these efforts at rehabilitation considered by the trial judge in arriving at a fit sentence. The trial judge’s failure to do so was, in my respectful view, unreasonable.� To read the full appeal court judgment, see http://bit.ly/ mrC8jw

Class size ruling won’t be appealed Province will not continue court battle by Tom Fletcher
of Canada that struck down similar legislation altering health care support workers’ union contracts. In the health care case, Canada’s highest court extended the constitutional right to freedom of association to include collective bargaining for the first time. In the school case, Justice Susan Griffin of the B.C. Supreme Court gave the B.C. government a year to work out an alternative to the 2002 legislation. The BCTF has filed thousands of union grievances over class sizes and the number of students with special needs in classrooms around the province, as well as pursuing the issue in court. Abbott said he called BCTF president Susan Lambert and B.C. School
THE B.C. government will work with the B.C. Teachers’ Federation rather than continue a court battle over control of class size and special needs support in public schools, Education Minister George Abbott said last Thursday. The government has been studying a ruling two weeks ago from the B.C.

But Abbott acknowledged that the government could end up legislating new rules if negotiations don’t produce a deal. After Griffin’s court decision, the BCTF estimated that the government would have to add $275 million to the education ministry budget to reduce class sizes and provide support staff to restore conditions from 2002. The BCTF’s current contract expires at the end of June. It was the first-ever negotiated contract with the B.C.’s 40,000 teachers, after a series of contracts that were imposed by NDP and B.C. Liberal governments.

Shortage of rental homes, coalition warns Tax reforms urged to encourage new construction by Jeff Nagel
people a year coming in and there’s no housing for them. That’s the kind of thing that breeds anarchism.” More than 80,000 residents in the region spend more than 30 per cent of their income on rent and another 30,000 spend over half. Rental demand will only continue to go up in Metro Vancouver because of high real estate costs, Wright said, yet only about 600 purpose-built rental units are being added each year – far short of an estimated 6,500 new units needed annually. The region’s oldest buildings in areas like New Westminster and Vancouver are nearing the end of their lives, Wright said, adding a
METRO VANCOUVER leaders are
adding their voices to a new coalition calling for reforms to increase the supply of rental housing in the region. Groups representing tenants, landlords, home builders, realtors, developers and non-profits have formed the Rental Housing Supply Coalition to push for changes. Co-chair Wayne Wright, the mayor of New Westminster, said the rental shortage in the Metro region is reaching a crisis point. “We just won’t have workers,” he predicted at an April 29 Metro board meeting. “We have 40,000

new housing policy is needed before many of them start to come down. Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan said the province should allow local cities to create rental housing zones where existing apartment buildings can’t later be converted to condos. Victoria has so far resisted that idea, he said, apparently because it deprives land owners of profit. He said local cities have tried all sorts of concessions to encourage more rental construction. “We keep looking for ways to stimulate rental development,” Corrigan said. “But no matter how hard we work, the numbers don’t.” Marg Gordon, CEO of the B.C. Apartment Owners and Managers
Association, told Metro directors the elimination of federal tax concessions for rental construction in the 1980s has resulted in land owners developing condos almost exclusively since then. Ottawa needs to reverse that policy, she said, or find other ways to stimulate rental housing construction. Increased use of basement suites or laneway homes in single-family areas aren’t a complete answer, she added. The supply of new basement suites being created is dwindling and may eventually run out, she said. And house owners can demand the space back, so suites are
an inferior substitute for purposebuilt rental buildings that offer tenants reliable permanent homes. “We’re pulling out all the stops and we can barely move the needle on getting new rental built,” added Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson. Wright said local governments can make land available for rental housing, increase densities, reduce fees cities charge and speed up the approval processes. Metro has launched the website RentersSpeakUp.org where renters can post their own stories to put a face on the statistics and add to the pressure for reform. jnagel@surreyleader.com

they do now, even if they have no claims. “We think it’s unfair for the good drivers to be subsidizing the rates for the bad drivers,” Jan Vrem said. But he was unable to show how that would impact various drivers, saying details of the new discount framework are still being worked out. Nor is it clear whether the new system will replace ICBC’s relatively new Driver Risk Premium (DRP)
system that already dings motorists nabbed for drunk driving and excessive speeding. Introduced in 2009, that system was heralded as a way to make high-risk drivers pay more, even ones who don’t own or insure a vehicle. It charges motorists an extra $320 per year for three years if caught excessive speeding. And a never-implemented second phase was supposed to charge drivers $350 per year if they rack up three or more lesser traffic tickets. While the DRP system charges more for risky drivers, Jan Vrem said that money doesn’t yet directly go to reducing good drivers’ premiums. “They don’t provide the kind of break a good driver should get for their good driving habits,” he said. “We think offering our customers a carrot instead of just a stick is more appropriate.” Jan Vrem said details of the changes, including revisions to the DRP system, will be filed with the B.C. Utilities Commission this summer. ICBC expects opponents will try to convince regulators to reject the plan on the basis that speeders shouldn’t be punished if they have no accidents. Jan Vrem said the corporation will be ready to counter those and other arguments. If approved, the changes would take effect in 2013 or 2014, he said. Speeding tickets racked up now would affect insurance discounts then, he said, urging motorists to slow down and drive safely. The 350 jobs to be reduced in the claims division by the end of 2014 will include 70 management positions and will all be phased in through attrition. “ICBC has a complex organization structure that has as many as seven layers of management between the CEO and frontline workers,” the document says, and that in future there will be no more than five or six layers of managers and supervisors, depending on the division. It says there are no immediate plans to outsource more work but there will be some consolidation of office space.

‘No growth’ will thwart business: Coalition Metro strategy under fire as barrier to development by Jeff Nagel A COALITION OF busi-
ness groups is pressing Metro Vancouver to redraw its regional growth strategy, saying it could stifle job creation and stunt development. The new master plan governing how the region grows, okayed by all cities except Coquitlam, is going to a non-binding dispute resolution process to iron out the impasse with that council. The B.C. Chamber of Commerce, Business Council of B.C. and Urban Development Institute – calling themselves the Business Coalition for a Sustainable Region – say the plan contains critical flaws and vests too much power with the regional board. “We look at it as a no-growth plan,” said Maureen Enser, executive director of the Urban Development Institute. “It takes things the way they are and freezes them for the next 30 years.” It will be too difficult, time-consuming and bureaucratic to amend the plan in the future to meet needs that can’t be anticipated today, the coalition argues. “We’re adding more layers or gatekeepers,” Enser said. She said businesses or developers wanting a development passed that might require approval at the Metro board level may have to lobby nearly every council in the region in advance to ensure the project isn’t defeated. “It’s a great vehicle for anybody who wants to oppose a project,” Enser said. She denied the coalition is against the plan’s urban containment boundary or its key goal of concentrating growth in urban areas to avoid more sprawl. But she said the plan lacks flexibility, particularly in terms of where industry and business can locate. Enser said 70 per cent of land in the region is already protected from development by the Agricultural Land Reserve and the Green Zone, which becomes conservation and recreation areas under the new strategy.
“We’re dealing with basically 30 per cent of the land that remains, much of which has been already developed,” she said. “We’ve got a very limited land supply. We’ve got to use it very carefully.” The coalition has offered few specifics on how they’d change the document but wants its concerns addressed when talks begin between Metro and Coquitlam reps. Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan, chair of the regional planning committee, said the business
groups had years and multiple rounds of public consultations to table their concerns. “It’s a bit late to start jumping up and complaining about the plan,” he said. Corrigan said he doesn’t understand why the business groups wouldn’t welcome the land-use certainty the growth strategy will deliver – unless they have the “nefarious” aim of swaying a “stupid council” without facing the safeguards of the regional board. The 60-day non-bind-
ing process to resolve Coquitlam’s objections must start by May 16. Metro politicians had wanted arbitration but were overruled by the provincial government. Corrigan and others fear the ratification of the growth plan could drag past the November civic elections, leaving the accord at risk of unravelling after new councils take power. Coquitlam councillors say the plan is too inconsistent from city to city because because multiple exemptions were made to win each council’s approval.
Notice of Proposal to Issue a Temporary Use Permit NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that, at a meeting of the Municipal Council of The Corporation of Delta to commence at 7:00 p.m. on Monday, May 16, 2011 at the Municipal Hall, 4500 Clarence Taylor Crescent, Delta, B.C., the Municipal Council of The Corporation of Delta will consider a resolution to approve an extension to TEMPORARY USE PERMIT LU005731.

HST costs average family $350 a year Prices increase, panel reports by Tom Fletcher THE INDEPENDENT
panel reviewing the impact of B.C.’s Harmonized Sales Tax has concluded that it increases prices for 17 per cent of an average family’s purchases, totalling $350 a year. The panel was appointed by the B.C. government as part of preparations for a mail-in referendum on the HST that begins in mid-June. The panel released its report Wednesday, after a delay to avoid release during the federal election. It finds that the B.C. government is getting more revenue than it expected in the first year of the HST. The finance ministry’s initial projections were that rebates for low-income families, home energy use and other exemptions would result in a net loss in the first year, with increases as the economy grows. The report concludes that going back to the former provincial sales tax would cost the province $531 million in net tax revenues in
the first year, with the decade. The B.C. govamount increasing in ernment has been citsubsequent years.

Ontario and Quebec have already banned “cosmetic pesticides” and have seen broad compliance from the public, he said. The most common target of such bans is herbicides used to kill dandelions and other broad-leafed weeds.

Fraser Valley Chiefs shortstop Jovan Ewusie puts a tag on Mike Krische of Langley Blaze , getting the out at second base during a B.C. Premier Baseball League game at Whalley Stadium on Sunday.
Fraser Valley Chiefs edge Langley Blaze 1-0
Walker wins with a no-hitter by Rick Kupchuk
TOM ROBSON deserved a better fate.
The Langley Blaze pitcher was nearperfect in the second game of Sunday’s B.C. Premier Baseball League (BCPBL) double header against the Fraser Valley Chiefs at Whalley Stadium. The 17-year-old from Ladner struck out 10 of the 21 batters he faced, and allowed just one walk and a single by Jordan McComb. Unfortunately for Robson, McComb scored on one of the two Langley errors, and Chiefs pitcher Ty Walker tossed a no-hitter in a 1-0 Fraser Valley victory. McComb was on third base when the Blaze catcher fielded a short hit, and overthrew first base. “Tom Robson is the best pitcher in Canada,” said Chiefs head coach Ernie Hawkins. “He’s been picked for the national team, and he’s a beauty. He’ll be a high draft pick.
“But Ty Walker just threw a better played in the past week, as they edged the Coquitlam Reds 3-2 last Wednesday game, he no-hit them. We’re glad to get the win for Ty.” in Whalley.

The Twins were swept in their double header last Sunday at Mackie Park by the North Delta Blue Jays. North Delta snapped a 3-3 tie with three runs in the bottom of the sixth inning in the first game, hanging on for a 6-5 victory. Jays batters collected six hits in the contest, with Bryan Elias getting a pair while scoring two runs and driving in a third. North Delta had 10 hits of North Shore pitching in game two, a 7-4 win. Cam Frick scored once and batted in another on three hits, while Matt Pentland had a pair of hits with two runs batted in. Now in sixth place at 7-5, the Blue Jays host the 1-12 Vancouver Cannons tomorrow (Thursday) at Mackie Park, before traveling to Vancouver Island for double headers Saturday against the 9-2 Nanaimo Pirates and Sunday with the 8-3 Parksville Royals.

Whyte is heading east to Montreal, after the Lions head coach/ general manager Wally Buono dealt the Surrey resident to the Alouettes during the Canadian Football League draft Sunday. Whyte, a former White Rock-South Surrey Titan and Big Kahuna Ram, was traded for a firstround draft pick in 2012. Despite being with the Lions since 2008 – he started as a practice roster player before making the main roster – Whyte had a limited role with his hometown team as he’d been stuck behind 41-year-old Paul McCallum, himself a former Ram, on the depth chart. “I’m very excited and very happy to get an opportunity to play,� Whyte said from Montreal Monday afternoon, shortly

Whyte: Will compete for starter’s job From page 20
by W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan
after undergoing a physical with his new team. “I’m getting the chance to play for a great team in a beautiful city, and I’m really excited.� Whyte, 25, said it was at times frustrating playing behind McCallum, but understood his situation, and takes nothing from positives from his time with the Lions.
“It was frustrating being a starter).� at times, sure, but “Sean deserves an opportunity with Wally you have to go to become a fulltime kicker through stages of learning, in the CFL and and I know he he will get that in Montreal,� always had a plan for me,� Buono said in a release.

re-sign their own veteran kicker, free agent Damon Duval. However, Whyte will have some competition for the starting job, as the Als still have American kicker/punter Colt David under contract, and also used their first-round pick in last weekend’s draft to select Brody McKnight, a kicker/punter from the University of Montana. “It’s what the game is all about – competition,� Whyte said. “But I’ve always prepared as though I’m going to start, and I don’t think Montreal traded for me to be a backup, so I’m headed into the season as though it’s my job.�

Autism support dog PePe keeps 10-year-old Maya Kaler safe

ama. Dada. Birdie. Bye-bye. Doggie. No-no-no. They were among the last words that Maya Kaler spoke eight years
ago. Her mother grew concerned even before Maya’s intellectual peak at the age of 18 months, when the little girl became ill with a fever. “I’d compare her to other kids and see not quite what the other children were doing,” says her mom Nicole. “But she was still progressing, which is why it was hard for me to get her diagnosed.” After a while, Maya’s differences became more obvious. She would fall over easily, she wouldn’t speak a word and would distance herself sociallyy
from others, never wanting to leave the house. She was diagnosed with autism at the age of two. Today, a smile while looking into her mother’s eyes is considered a major interaction. “She was a five-year-old still in a stroller,” Nicole says. “Just to get her out... she had the comfort of being in her own little world.” Walking beside Maya in her stroller were younger siblings Uma and Deven. For years, she was taught in her therapy room at home (and later at school), learning simple tasks that her siblings picked See DOG / Page 24

Disneyland: Trip would have been impossible without PePe From page 24 as a new family pet, is among the growing ranks of autism support dogs in B.C. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For me, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like my antianxiety pill,â&#x20AC;? explains Nicole. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know once I hook Maya up to her, nothingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to happen to Maya. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going to have the opportunity to bolt.â&#x20AC;? It took a few months with a strong, furry anchor for Maya to learn that it did no good to try to take off in a grocery store line or on the pathway to school. She simply gave up. The relationship between Maya and PePe remains conservative. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The purpose of the dog is not to make Maya independent,â&#x20AC;? Nicole explains. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not like a seeing-eye dog. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not that â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;girl and her dog running across the field to each otherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; sentimental thing that people picture, yet itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still such a huge impact on our family dynamic and how we operate.â&#x20AC;? PePe will keep Mayaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brother and sister company, for instance, while Nicole and her husband Darshan deal with a Maya crisis. Nicole believes that some bonding between Maya and PePe developed in Disneyland last year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why is this fun?â&#x20AC;? their eyes pleaded in unison.
Todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Big Deal!
But the family trip would never have been possible without PePe. There are other new opportunities for Maya with PePe at her side. Now 10, she has got a handle on swimming, but doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand skating â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why would you go to this cold place and slip on the ground?â&#x20AC;? asks her mother rhetorically. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She always had a look on her face that says this doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make any sense at all.â&#x20AC;?
BeneďŹ ts of autism support dogs: â&#x20AC;˘ Increase safety for the child; â&#x20AC;˘ Control the child by commanding the dog; â&#x20AC;˘ The child is passively taught responsibility; â&#x20AC;˘ Under the B.C. Guide Animal Act, autism support dogs enjoy the right of full public access; â&#x20AC;˘ Positive changes in the childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s behaviour â&#x20AC;&#x201C; lower aggression and frustration; â&#x20AC;˘ The child is comforted when upset; â&#x20AC;˘ Meeting the needs of parents for a degree of predictability in social settings for the child and themselves.
Training of dogs to assist children with autism began in 2008 as more requests came into BC Guide Dog Services, which provides dogs to assist people with visual impairment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lost on us that there was more that could be done,â&#x20AC;? says Autism Support Dogs chairman Bill Thornton. Since 2008, 11 dogs have graduated and been provided for children with autism. Seven more are expected to graduate by the end of 2011. Since the Ladner-based Autism Support Dogs is essentially an unstaffed fundraising arm of BC Guide Dogs, the main body provides the administration, dogs and training for autism support by four certified instructors. The friendly, intelligent and docile Labrador dogs are ideal for both types of work. Thornton says there are plans for a regional training centre for autism support dogs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be as large as the guide dog program. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a lot of people applying.â&#x20AC;?
