Carbon tax for TransLink? Premier says she’s considering using revenues to support regional transit by Jeff Nagel AN OFFER from Premier Christy Clark to turn some carbon tax revenue over to TransLink for transit expansion is being welcomed as a potential breakthrough in the long-running funding impasse. In a statement, Clark said she’s ready to consider using the carbon tax to support regional initiatives such as public transit. Such a move must ensure only carbon tax revenue from the Lower Mainland goes to TransLink, she said, so northern B.C. residents don’t pay for SkyTrain extensions. A share of carbon tax revenue had been proposed by the regional

mayors council, which is trying to negotiate new TransLink revenue sources with the province to build the Evergreen Line and finance an array of other expansion projects, including rapid transit extensions in Surrey and out to UBC. “This is a very welcome sign,” said North Vancouver District Mayor Richard Walton, who chairs the mayors council and met with provincial officials May 18. Premier Clark also said the province will proceed with scheduled increases in the carbon tax, which rises from the current 4.45 cents on gasoline to 5.56 cents on July 1 and hits 6.67 cents in mid-2012.

face and neck of two other Surrey men last year should spend eight years in jail, says the lawyer prosecuting Anthony LaRose. One of LaRose’s victims, Chris Hanna, who bears a scar on his right cheek stretching from his mouth towards his ear, thinks the prison term should be longer. Garry “But MacDonald I know it won’t be,” said Hanna during a break in LaRose’s sentencing hearing Thursday. “I’ve forgiven him already. I’ve moved on.” In March, a jury found LaRose, 21, guilty of two counts of aggravated assault, two counts of assault with a weapon, and one count of possessing a weapon in connection to an April 2010 incident near Fraser Highway and 156 Street.

Eight-year sentence “unduly devastating.”

Funding: Must be long-term From page 1 Nearly $1 billion is to be collected in carbon tax this year, rising to $1.26 billion in 2012. The increased carbon tax that will come from Metro Vancouver from the next two increases would be worth at least $150 million a year by 2012. Steering it to TransLink would mean changing the government’s policy to date of returning all carbon tax revenue through personal and corporate income tax cuts. Mayors argue that’s justified because public transit improvements help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The mayors council last year refused to approve further property tax increases to fund TransLink expansion. Negotiations with the province have since resumed in the search for new sources of cash, potentially through expanded tolls, road pricing or an annual vehicle levy. Walton said those ideas and others must still be pursued – even if the province agrees to share the carbon tax – because TransLink needs multiple diversified streams of long-term revenue. “There’s going to have to be a variety of different sources,” he said. TransLink can’t rely too heavily on fuel taxes, because that stream could diminish over time if many more motorists switch to hybrids or electric vehicles. Although B.C.’s carbon tax also applies on home heating and industrial fuels, most of it is raised from vehicle fuels – making it less reliable if motorists eventually burn less gas. Walton said “distance pricing” appears to be Richard one of the most Walton promising and fairest methods of raising money. “All the people moving on the road would share in the cost of maintaining the roads and transit system,” he said. That would be more fair than simply tolling some or even all of the bridges in the Metro Vancouver area, Walton said, a scenario which would still allow someone in Port Coquitlam to drive to UBC without paying a toll. While road pricing may be too complex to implement quickly, a simpler mechanism is the vehicle levy. TransLink last year proposed charging each vehicle an annual fee based on its carbon footprint. Another option, Walton said, would be to charge varying rates based on distances driven in a year. Northeast sector residents remain worried the financing debate will continue to hold up construction of the Evergreen Line to Coquitlam. Walton said he still wants an overarching agreement on future long-term funding, not just a solo deal for the Evergreen Line. He hopes to make “significant progress” with B.C. officials by July. The NDP supports using carbon tax revenues for transit.

The Department of Fisheries and Oceans last week tabled a report at the Cohen Commission outlining concerns First Nations ﬁsheries on the Fraser River are selling salmon caught for food and ceremonial purposes.

Chris Hanna and Saul Marshall, both 25, were victims of a brutal double stabbing last spring in Surrey. Crown lawyers want the man convicted in the incident, Anthony LaRose, to spend eight years in jail, while the defence believes three to four years is adequate.

It was the early hours of April 3 when Hanna and his friend Saul Marshall, both now 25, were returning from a night out when they stopped at a gas station. Hanna said he ran across the street when he saw a man, LaRose, hit a woman. A fight broke out, Marshall joined in and LaRose pulled a knife on the two unarmed men. He slashed Hanna across the face and stabbed him in the gut three times and sliced Marshall’s neck, narrowly missing the vital carotid artery, before fleeing the scene. During the eight-day jury trial, LaRose never denied the double stabbing, but claimed he didn’t know how badly the pair were hurt and that he ran because he knew police would blame him due to his prior

criminal record. He was on probation at the time. He argued the two men confronted him first, the fight escalated and he used the knife to defend himself. In New Westminster Supreme Court on Thursday, Crown prosecutor Craig Yamashiro said LaRose has shown a continued lack of insight or remorse and “a callousness” toward what happened. The Crown’s eight-year sentence request would be minus the 13-and-a-half months LaRose has already spent in pre-trail custody. A DNA order and lifetime weapons ban is also requested. LaRose’s lawyer asked for a sentence between three and four years, with time-and-ahalf credit for time served. Defence lawyer Garry Mac-

Donald argued it was Hanna that struck first – regardless of how “disproportionate” LaRose’s response was. “This is not a planned and deliberate attack,” said MacDonald. Calling an eight-year sentence “unduly devastating,” he said LaRose has “seen the light” and knows he has to proceed with rehabilitation. A psychological assessment indicated LaRose came from an abusive home, used alcohol to cope from a young age, and may be prone to destructive, anti-social behaviour. Outside court, Hanna said his upbringing wasn’t great either, but he’s not out committing crimes. “You make your own decisions and path in life,” he said. LaRose will be sentenced May 30.

UNION NEGOTIATIONS

RAESIDE

Give and take in talks

axpayers should be paying close attention to the dispute over the way contract negotiations are handled with unionized civic employees. Several cities have served notice they no longer want to be represented at the negotiating table by the Metro Vancouver Labour Relations Bureau and others, such as Surrey, pulled out long ago. Although membership in the bureau is not mandatory and labour relations is not considered a core function of the regional authority, the Metro Vancouver group has been responsible for 60 collective agreements covering approximately 15,000 employees on behalf of 35 employers. But there are rumblings of discontent dating back several years that this one-size-fits-all regional approach does not acknowledge local circumstances and conditions. The concerns are arising as the nature of human resource management has changed from adversarial to collaborative, the competition for top wages and skilled employees is fierce, and cities are demanding more autonomy in how they deliver services and treat their employees. While it’s admittedly difficult to achieve cohesion at the outset of negotiations when one (usually larger) city is willing to have a work stoppage on an issue when another (usually smaller) city is not, and a lot of resentment has built up among the cities over the years, it would be a shame to throw the baby out with the bath water. Labour consultant Jim Dorsey has analyzed these issues and concluded that there is no going back to the days of a united front. In his report for the labour bureau, he recommends it reorganize to offer a buffet of labour management services and he hopes small and mid-sized cities will find a way to share costs and efficiencies. (See story, page 10). Whether this can be achieved in time for the current round of bargaining is hard to say, and the timing of this dispute is unfortunate. Only the naive would believe that a stiff round of union negotiations can be replaced by a couple of collaborative team-building exercises and a managers’ retreat, and there is a risk that a Balkanized approach to labour negotiations will result in higher wages and tax increases that are unsustainable. Civic politicians would do well to remember that the bottom line for taxpayers – on this issue and most others – is the bottom line. – Black Press

y feedback on the Harmonized Sales Tax debate is running hotter as taxpayers await Premier Christy Clark’s “bold” changes to the tax, due to be revealed any day. In response to several angry readers, I will restate what I had hoped was obvious by now. All but the poorest consumers (myself included) are paying more tax under the HST than they were under the old provincial sales tax. The richest pay by far the most. The “embedded” PST has been removed from many products, but evidence isn’t yet clear that this is being passed on to consumers, as economists predict. What is clear is that businesses are benefiting. What is still in dispute is what businesses are helped most. Doug Donaldson, the NDP MLA for Stikine, objected to my statement last week that he was wrong about the HST beneficiaries being “Liberal donor corporations.” So again I will state the obvious, that forest, mining and other resource companies donate to the B.C. Liberals. (The NDP is on record as wanting to increase corporate income and capital taxes).

I have also argued that migration of retirees will dominate B.C.’s population growth in the coming years. This is another group that reports less income but has significant consumption. A recent BC Stats study shows that I overstated the impact of retirees. Since 1961, only seven per cent of migrants to B.C. have been 65 or older. Younger people are coming here to work, and increasingly they will be selfemployed or in small business. The NDP supports lowering small business income tax to zero. They should also support the HST.

Asking Anniedale Elementary: Goodbye, old friend too much from judges? THERE IS a story in one of the old Grade 4

HAVING JUST read the editorial

piece, “Agonizing waits with lousy results” (The Leader, May 18), I am of two minds. In the first case I fully agree with the views expressed. Despite my following comments I have nothing but empathy for the family. I can barley imagine the loss. Having said that, the editorial also notes that losing a child or loved one to an impaired driver or in any other fashion inevitably leads to outcries of dissatisfaction with the judicial system. Unfortunately, it is almost a weekly issue. The editorial refers to our system as dysfunctional. Maybe it is. On reflection, I honesty do not know. But maybe not. Maybe it serves the purpose it was intended to perform. Possibly we are asking the judicial system to perform a function it was never intended to fulfill: to satisfy society as a whole and those most affected with adequate punishment for a criminal act. Makes sense to me. But why? So we feel better? So the abhorrent action of the accused is suitably punished? Closure for the victims family? I am sure many, myself included, would say yes. But it seems clear the judges do not fully agree. And just maybe they are correct. They are there to assess the culpability of the accused and if they find him or her guilty, render a suitable sentence based on a balance of punishment, rehabilitation and deterrence for the accused and others – not to satisfy the desires of society for further justification.

An HST bonus HST MEANS money put back into

the pockets of employees at a family-owned small business on Vancouver Island. We calculated the savings as a result of the HST and we decided to take that money and give raises to our 38 employees. We explained to them that this raise was thanks to B.C.’s tax harmonization. We are now saving per cent on input tax credits and we are investing that money back into our employees.

readers of the 1980s and ’90s about a boy and a robin. He cares for the injured bird and develops a close bond with the wild creature. Eventually, though, he realizes that it is best for all if he lets the bird go free; best for the bird and its survival, and best for him because he realizes that it is part of growing up. His mother says, “When you are growing up, there are many, many goodbyes.” The only thing that stays the same is change. As the learner support teacher at Anniedale Traditional Elementary over the last 10 years, I came to know every nook and cranny in every

dusty classroom, just as I came to know almost every child who came through the doors. I taught and played with the children on the expansive playground. The ant colony on the eastern edge of the grass field was a source of many life lessons for the students. The linoleumcovered hallways were familiar and comfortable, like a good friend. As a small school, we had a cohesive, collaborative staff. We were “the small school with the big heart.” Then the school district decided to close Anniedale. At the end of June last year, the windows were boarded up and the interior was gutted and supplies collected for transport to the new

venue. We had to say goodbye to our old friend. It was hard. But now that we are settled in our new school, we realize that life goes on; letting go was a good thing. Should Anniedale be sold? I leave that decision to others. The good book says, “There is a time for everything, and a season for everything under heaven.” Anniedale’s season has passed, but I know that it will live on in our hearts and minds. Goodbye, old friend.

did this morning. This sounded like a steal as gas prices were seven cents higher per litre just last week. But there’s more grief to come. Whenever gas prices shoot up there are calls for inquiries. Oil companies always plead innocence. There may not be collusion which can be proved, but they all seem to be using the same playbook. One of their tactics is to jack up the price, then back off a bit so the public doesn’t think they are being ripped off so badly. In the meantime, they have skimmed off some gravy. Another tactic is to change prices frequently, making it harder to pin down the cause. And we all know how quickly they put the prices up but then take their sweet time bringing them down. In the current run-up in prices of oil and gasoline, there is little connection between supply and demand. Libya was quoted as a reason in the initial escalation. But there was no shortage of oil. Even the Saudis said so. The culprits seem to be the bidders who do the trading and the big pension funds and other heavy hitters who have gotten into the act. They are lining their pockets same way as Wall Streeters before the meltdown of 2008. Who can bring that element to heel? I am afraid no one will, despite Canada and the U.S. holding inquiries. Those who can are sticking it to the average citizen. Dave Bains, Surrey

Hospital treatment ‘cruel and unusual’ I’D LIKE to preface my comments

by saying our families have enjoyed extremely good service from our medical system over the years. However, my sister Joan had a fall at home recently resulting in a broken ankle. Her husband took her to Surrey Memorial Hospital where she was advised she would require surgery and was admitted to a stretcher in the ER where she spent two days. Next she was moved to an alcove where she spent days three, four and five. Late afternoon of day six she was moved to a room and what appeared to be a promise of surgery. Disappointment again. At 11 p.m. she was brought a “brown bag” meal ending any hope for that day. She is now into day seven and still has no immediate prospect of treatment. We understand the constraints the medical system is operating (or not operating) under but this is beyond belief. Joan is a healthy, active

individual who has been confined to a very expensive hospital bed for a full week. She is not allowed to eat because there is a possibility she could be called to surgery. At the end of each day, about 10 p.m. she is offered a meal then is back into the “nothing by mouth after midnight” regimen. A full week of this type

of treatment equates to cruel and unusual treatment. Not only am I outraged by the lack of service my sister is receiving but also as a taxpayer I look at this and see a healthy person occupying a hospital bed that should be available to someone with a greater need. (My sister has nothing but kind

Do the math, Surrey ACCORDING TO existing Surrey bylaws, basement suites are taxed at $400 per suite per year. This helps pay for extra sewerage, garbage collection, schools, etc. If there are 20,000 such suites, that’s a cool $8 million every year that the city can collect. No one can construct anything without a building permit. Therefore the city files should contain all the addresses that have suites. Simply send the owner of the properties the correct assessment ($400 per suite over and above the regular assessment) and have the matter resolved. If the city does not collect due to political reasons, that’s another issue altogether. M. Hajee, Surrey

words for the staff at the hospital who have given her very good care other than the lack of surgical service). I am hoping that by bringing this situation to the attention of as many people as I can, someone will find a way to resolve the problem or at least find a way to handle these types of cases in a more efficient and cost effective way.

Mayor Dianne Watts said Flather is an excellent choice for this year’s Good Citizen. “The City of Surrey is very fortunate to have so many talented and dedicated volunteers who contribute their time and energy to help build the spirit of our city and make Surrey an even better place to live,” said Watts. “Surrey is thriving and that is a testament to people like Avril Flather who demonstrate the power of individuals to shape the communities in which they live.” The ceremony honouring Flather was last night (Tuesday) at the Sheraton Vancouver Guildford.

B.C. seeks ways to ease ferry fare hikes New ferry commissioner reviewing system by Tom Fletcher BC FERRIES isn’t allowed to use revenue from its busy routes to prevent steeper increases on the smaller island and northern runs. That is one of the regulations imposed by the B.C. government in 2003 that is being reviewed by Gordon Macatee, the new B.C. Ferry Commissioner. Another is the mandate to move toward a user-pay system, which has resulted in fuel surcharges along with higher fares on BC Ferries’ 25 salt-water routes. Transportation Minister Blair Lekstrom said he has heard loud and clear from ferry users that they’ve had enough of big increases, and he wants “a primary focus on affordability” to consider tourism and other business as well as residents. BC Ferries CEO David Hahn has said the mandate of the quasi-

independent Crown corporation and its current public subsidy could result in a doubling of rates for some routes in the coming years, and substantial increases across the fleet. Lekstrom said he doesn’t accept that, but he wouldn’t comment on the possibility of increasing the provincial subsidy. BC Ferries is returning to fuel surcharges in June as fuel prices have soared, and has requested rate increases for next spring. Lekstrom said the fuel surcharges will go ahead. BC Ferries is seeking rate increases of about four per cent on major routes and eight per cent on others to take effect next year. Lekstrom said he is considering legislation to allow temporary relief before the spring legislative session ends June 2. Macatee’s review is to be complete at the end of September. tﬂetcher@blackpress.ca

Recently my family and I decided to dine at the Taj Restaurant. We all ordered the Butter Chicken to compare with other places we’ve been. I can say without a doubt that the Taj Restaurant has the best Butter Chicken I have ever tasted. We have gone back several times since to sample more items and they have all been fantastic. I would recommend trying the Taj at your next opportunity.

Civic unions poised to take on Metroâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s divided cities Mayors fear taxpayers will foot bill for bargaining discord by Jeff Nagel A ONCE-UNIFIED front

by local cities in labour negotiations with their unions has crumbled, raising fears that cashstrapped taxpayers in much of Metro Vancouver will soon be forced to pay their civic workers significantly higher wages. Cities have been gradually bailing out of

the Metro Vancouver labour relations bureau, an arm of the regional district that coordinates bargaining for the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s municipalities to keep a lid on contract costs. But the crisis has now come to a head on the eve of a new round of talks with unionized employees set to start later this year. A new report from labour consultant Jim

Dorsey concludes the breakaway cities canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be brought back into the fold and the other mainly smaller municipalities that choose to band together should form a new bargaining group. Already out of the labour relations bureau are Surrey, Richmond and Port Coquitlam, while Vancouver, West Vancouver, Burnaby and Delta have given notice in the past three years of their intention to leave the bargaining group. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The four largest will act in their self-interest,â&#x20AC;? Dorseyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s report concludes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Let them go their separate ways and get on with it. There must be some tearing down before rebuilding.â&#x20AC;? Since the breakaway group is home to more than 70 per cent of the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s residents, the remaining 14 mainly smaller municipalities have fewer resources to pool to counter the municipal unions. The risk, some mayors say, is that unions will secure advantageous deals with some cities and then play those agreements off against other councils. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The downside is youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see a bit of whipsawing happening,â&#x20AC;? Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If one group agrees to a settlement it will set the track for everybody else,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding some cities may agree to new deals with more generous terms that other cities canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford. The breakaway cities contend they could have reached better agreements in the past but were barred by the restrictive group bargaining association because other cities objected to some of the terms. They say they ended up paying too much in 2007 when Richmond signed a 17.5-per-cent five-year deal with its workers that other cities were later forced to match. And some of those cities feel they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get enough value for what they invest in the labour bureau. All Metro Vancouver cities share in at least some of the $2.5 million annual cost of the bureau, with participating members paying more. While cities like Vancouver and Burnaby donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to be bound by the bureau and wish to

be free to strike their own deals with civic workers, they still want some of the benefits of the association, like intelligence on what their neighbours are negotiating. Port Moody Mayor Joe Trasolini sees the collapse as a healthy evolution of the civic employersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; association. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You need this sort of a break-up in order at some point in the future to rebuild something new,â&#x20AC;? he said. He expects the smaller cities will band together because there is strength in numbers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The worrisome part is if a bigger municipality with some means goes out and signs a contract that is more lucrative,â&#x20AC;? Trasolini said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That is the danger, especially for smaller municipalities.â&#x20AC;? Dorseyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s report echoes the concern of â&#x20AC;&#x153;concession contaminationâ&#x20AC;? and the potential that wealthy cities will do sweetheart deals that get replicated and force the rest of the region to raise taxes or sacrifice other spending priorities. But it also recognizes complaints about the inflexibility of the onesize-fits-all bargaining system. A â&#x20AC;&#x153;slavishâ&#x20AC;? adherence to regional contract standards may be less innovative, the report notes, and seen as handcuffing cities that think they can come up with more creative solutions with their unionized workers and achieve more positive local relations. The strict bureaucontrolled negotiations have led some cities to covertly strike â&#x20AC;&#x153;stealth agreementsâ&#x20AC;? or unwritten understandings outside of collective agreements, according to Dorsey. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For them, belonging to a defensive alliance is more a burden than a benefit,â&#x20AC;? he said, citing complaints the bureau is tired, failing, backwardlooking and unaccountable. Dorseyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recommendations include creating an open public database of collective agreements. The new association of smaller cities expected to emerge may coordinate research and other services that non-members could buy into on a fee-for-service basis, although they wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be privy to the details of active negotiations. jnagel@surreyleader.com

Markita Kaulius wants to see a five-year minimum jail sentence, and a charge of vehicular homicide if someone is killed in that accident. During a press conference last week, the Kaulius family mentioned that Nina Grewal, the MP for Fleetwood-Port Kells, attended the memorial service for Kassandra. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was really sad, my heart goes to the family,â&#x20AC;?

Grewal noted there is already a mandatory penalty of $1,000 for a first offense involving drunk driving, a jail sentence of 30 days for a second offense and 120 days for a third.

And the information we all provide in the Census is one of the main sources of information to determine how it should be spent. This is why the Census is important. Every ¿ve years, the Federal Government undertakes the Census – a count of the number of people living in Canada. They look at how old people are and where they live. All governments will use the Census results to make long term plans. Those plans include transfer payments from Federal to Provincial coffers and from Provincial to Municipal coffers. In other words, they use the Census data to re-distribute your money. The City of Surrey has the youngest population in BC – approximately 33% of the people living in Surrey are under the age of 19 years. In Surrey, thousands of children are being taught in portables because our schools are bursting at the seams. We need more schools. Surrey not only needs schools for elementary and high school-age students but we need more spaces for postsecondary students. Statistics show that the population south of the Fraser is vastly underserved for post -secondary seats. Although we have a young population, we are also an aging population. Vancouver has several hospitals for a population not much greater than Surrey’s. Even with the expansions underway to Surrey Memorial Hospital, our continued growth will only increase the need for expanded health care services. Shouldn’t we have another hospital to serve our rapidly growing needs? In order to be a green community, we require a transit system that meets our needs. If you can get to Skytrain, it’s easy to get to Vancouver and use their well-scheduled transit. But we need a system that allows us to get around in our City and the neighbouring communities South of the Fraser. Every month between 800 and 1,000 people move to Surrey. Stopping development and discouraging people from moving here is not the answer - getting Surrey’s fair share of your tax dollars is. When that Census envelope comes in the mail, don’t put it off. Stand up and be counted. Make sure all the members of your household are included in the count. It is your responsibility to insure that the taxes you pay come back to Surrey.

Kaulius: Family circulating a petition for change From page 12 “Despite all of these improvements, more work still needs to be done,” Grewal said. She will be talking with the federal minister of justice Rob Nicholson about the possibility of bringing forward stronger mandatory minimums. “I’ll be in touch with the family,” Grewal said. “The law should be tougher, I agree with them 100 per cent, so that no one else dares go on the road (after) drinking alcohol.” Russ Hiebert, the MP for South SurreyWhite Rock-Cloverdale, said mandatory minimum sentences should be reserved for when judges are clearly falling short on sentencing. The Kaulius accident was extremely tragic,

he said, and the issue the family is talking about now has his attention. “I think it’s a little bit early to say the sentencing for these types of crimes is inappropriate,” Hiebert said. “I would like to know that there is a pattern of judges handing sentences Nina Grewal that aren’t proportionate to the seriousness of the crime.” He notes several factors are often considered, such as the level of intoxication, previous drinking and driving record, mental health issues, or whether street racing was involved. “All of these factors need to be considered,”

Hiebert said. “I think it’s important for judges to have some latitude to evaluate those things.” Joining the Kaulius family at last week’s press conference was Laurel Middelaer, whose four-year-old daughter Alexa was killed three years ago by a drunk Russ Hiebert driver. The drunk driver in that case was sentenced to two and a half years in jail and got a fiveyear driving prohibition. Laurel said in her case, the judge was bound by 25 years of case law, “25 years of really light sentencing,” she said. TELUS AUTHORIZED DEALERS LOWER MAINLAND

“The issue of impaired driving is a nut that needs to be cracked,” Laurel said. “And the reality of what your seeing in this family today, is the reality that four families face every day in Canada.” She said the solution is like a three-legged stool, including education, enforcement and the application of the law. The first two, in this country, are outstanding, she said. “The part of the stool that is causing everything to be off balance, is the application of justice,” said Laurel. “There is a void there, and that is the area that needs to be addressed.” The Kaulius family is also circulating a petition for changes in law which will allow judges to hand out more meaningful sentences.

Violent robbery suspect kept behind bars Surrey man facing 11 charges after Metro Vancouver crime spree by Gary McKenna A SURREY MAN accused of carrying out a string of violent robberies targeting women in Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam and across Metro Vancouver will remain in custody until a bail hearing next month. Joon Woo Lim appeared via video monitor in Port Coquitlam Provincial Court last Wednesday morning. His lawyer, Mark Rowan, told the court that because of the complicated nature of the case, he would need two weeks

to prepare for a bail hearing, which has been scheduled for June 1. In the meantime the 32-year-old Surrey resident will remain in custody. Lim is facing 11 charges, ranging from multiple counts of robbery to dangerous driving to disguising his face with intent to commit an offence, stemming from a 48-hour crime spree. The attacks began at 5:40 a.m. on May 5, when a woman working in a Surrey coffee shop was attacked and robbed by a man with a crowbar. Less than an hour later, another

woman was attacked by a man with a knife in North Vancouver. At 8:30 a.m. the same day, another North Vancouver woman was walking alone when she was struck by a man with an unidentified weapon. Approximately an hour after that, an elderly Port Coquitlam woman was out walking when she was attacked and beaten over the head with a weapon, leaving her in hospital. The womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s purse was taken in the struggle. And at 10 p.m. the same day, a woman with

a young child in the back seat of her car was driving on Lansdowne Drive in Coquitlam when she was rear-ended by another vehicle. When the woman pulled over to check the damage, she was struck with a hammer by a man who attempted to steal the car. Nearby residents came to the womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aid but the attacker was able to get away. After another attack on May 6 against a woman standing on a Vancouver sidewalk, police were able to make an arrest. gmckenna@tricitynews.com

Fraser Valley meet in Coquitlam

Three golds for Graf by Rick Kupchuk AFTER A dominating performance

at the Fraser Valley Track and Field Championships last week in Coquitlam, Serena Graf of Seaquam Secondary looks poised to challenge for three medals at the provincial championships in Burnaby. A winner of two medals at the B.C. championships last year, Graf won three gold medals in Coquitlam, tops among local athletes. The defending provincial champion in the girls javelin, Graf was first at the Fraser Valley meet with a throw of 39.8 metres, an improvement of the toss of 38.92m which won provincial gold a year ago. Graf also was first in hammer throw (40.92m) and shotput (10.75). A year ago at the B.C. Championships, she won a bronze medal in shot put and was fourth in hammer. Other medalists from the Fraser Valley meet included: ■ Keffri Neal of Fleetwood Park edged rival Sean Keane of White Rock Christian to win the boys 800m race, an event dominated by the top two athletes. Both runners bettered the old Fraser Valley record of 1:53.90, set in 200 by Graham Wells of Seaquam. Neal finished with a new record time of 1:50.72, with Keane right behind at 1:50.91. Neal also was second in the

1,500m event, finishing with the time of 4:01.75. ■ Surrey Christian high school excelled in relay events, winning the 4x400 race in 3:33.8, then placing third in the boys 4x100 race in 45.40. ■ Lord Tweedsmuir’s Hayley Stewart won a pair of bronze medals. A silver medalist in the long jump at last year’s provincial meet with a jump of 5.57m, Stewart’s best jump last week was 5.15m. She was also third in the 100m race with a time of 12.92. ■ Silver medalists at the Fraser Valley meet included Luke Ehman of Holy Cross (second in high jump, 1.8m), Alexis Sebok of Johnston Heights (second in discus, 29.21m), Konrad Piaseczny of Holy Cross (second in boys long jump, 6.18m), Adam Marchinkov of Surrey Christian (second in boys javelin, 46.05m), Erin Slade of Burnsview (second in girls 800m, 2:20.97), Sandy Yu of Fraser Heights (second in girls 1,500m race walk, 8:42.27), and Nathan Goodwin of Panorama Ridge (second in 2,000m steeplechase, 6:30.0). ■ Winning bronze medals at Trevor King of Lord Tweedsmuir (third in boys long jump, 5.95m), and David Malamura of Surrey Christian (third in boys 400m hurdles, 1:01.29).

Thunder confident prior to provincials Panorama Ridge places second at Fraser Valley high school soccer tournament by Rick Kupchuk A FRASER VALLEY championship has slipped

away, but that hasn’t stopped the Panorama Ridge Thunder from setting their sights on the bigger prize. The Senior AAA girls high school soccer team still expects to be a contender for first place at the provincial championship tournament next week in Kamloops. The Thunder placed second at the 16-team Fraser Valley tournament, falling 2-0 to the South Delta Sun Devils in Tsawwassen last Thursday. “Although we were not able to get the win, I think our team should be confident heading to Kamloops,” said Derek Duke, who co-coaches the Panorama Ridge team with Darrell Fast. “The girls have proven all season long that they can compete with the top teams in the province and they gained valuable experience playing in such a big game on Thursday.”

The Panthers lost 1-0 to the Sardis Falcons Thursday, who clinched a berth to the B.C. tournament by placing fifth. ■ The Burnsview Griffins will attempt to repeat as Senior AA provincial champions, qualifying for the June 2-4 event in Burnaby by winning a second consecutive Fraser Valley championship. The Griffins stopped Pitt Meadows 1-0 in the final last Thursday evening in Prince George. Elexis Schlossarek got the goal, with Julie Devriendt and Michelle Wessa playing outstanding games in the midfield. Burnsview had little trouble qualifying for a third straight provincial championship tournament, outscoring the opposition 8-1 in three Fraser Valley tournament games, after going 4-0-2 (won-lost-tied) in league play with a 32-2 goal difference.

Locals excel at nationals Volleyball players contribute to Fraser Valley success by Nick Greenizan A HANDFUL OF Surrey vol-

leyball players were front and centre on the court in recent weeks, at both provincial and national championships. On May 7, the under-18 Surrey Focus Pounders captured the B.C. Boys championship with a victory over the Fraser Valley Volleyball Club (FVVC) Blue U18s 2-0 (25-23, 27-25). A pair of South Surrey athletes figured prominently

into the action; Pounders’ Alex Russell was named tournament MVP, and his teammate, setter Ryan Thain was named to the tournament all-star team. Both clubs advanced to the Canadian Open under-17/18 Championships last weekend in Abbotsford, where the FVVC Blue squad just missed the Tier 1 podium, dropping a straight-sets decision (25-22, 25-20) to Northern Alberta Volleyball Club of Edmonton in the third-place game. The roster of FVVC Blue

was laden with local talent, including Matt Bonshor, Jake Klassen, Keenan McMullin, Josh Sigurdson and Liam Murphy-Burke. On the girls side of the national tournament, the Fraser Valley Volleyball Club Blitz – which includes South Surrey’s Carla Vicic, Morgan Dale and Becky Roder, and Cloverdale’s Breanna Evoy – won the under-17 Division 1/ Tier 2 final, beating a team from Lac-Meganic, Que. in two sets (26-24, 25-23).

Caleb Lefebvre was the winning pitcher in a 9-3 win by the Fraser Valley Chiefs over the Victoria Eagles Saturday afternoon in Victoria.

Chiefs fall to fifth place Split with Eagles, Twins by Rick Kupchuk The Fraser Valley Chiefs won two of four games against opposition in the bottom half of the standings, slipping down one position in the B.C. Premier Baseball League. The Chiefs split a pair of one-sided games in the provincial capital Saturday afternoon, topping the Victoria Eagles 9-3 in the first game of a double header, then losing the second 12-2. Caleb Lefebvre was the winning pitcher in the Chiefs win. Then Monday in North Vancouver, Fraser Valley blanked the North Shore Twins 4-0 before losing a wild 12-11 decision in the rematch. The Chiefs fell to 11-7 (wonlost) on the season, and are now in fifth place. Ty Walker threw a complete-game threehitter in the first game

Monday against the Twins for his fourth shutout win in six decisions. The Sands Secondary student walked just two batters while striking out five, raising his won-lost record to 5-1. Brody Hawkins and Mitch Dornblut both went three-for-four at the plate, and Declan Murphy had a pair of hits, including a double. The two teams combined for 31 hits in game two, with the Twins getting six of their 17 in the bottom of the sixth inning, scoring five times for the victory. Jordan McComb was a perfect four-for-four for the Chiefs, with a double, two runs scored and an RBI (run batted in). Dale Mar had a pair of hits and three RBIs, with Hawkins and Braeden Allemann getting two hits each. Allemann also had a pair of RBIs.

In fact, only Clayton Foltyn was able to stay on the bull for the statutory eight-second ride, giving him $50,000 for the final round and $54,300 overall. The four-day event generated in excess of $5 million dollars.
