Both Surrey and Delta move to legalize secondary suites
Feathered refuge
Suite approval
Biologist cares for variety of unique birds by Hannah Sutherland
A
by Kevin Diakiw SURREY IS forging ahead to allow secondary
suites in all single family dwellings. According to a poll conducted this month by Ipsos Reid, 63 per cent of Surrey residents support allowing a suite in all homes. The most supportive community was Newton (65 per cent) and least was South Surrey (57 per cent). The telephone poll of 1,500 people was conducted between June 28 and July 6 and is statistically accurate to +/- 2.8 per cent 19 times out of 20. A report to city council Monday night recommends a policy where: • One secondary suite will be allowed in all single family dwellings in the city; • Multiple suites in a house will be prohibited; • The building owner resides on the premises; • The owner of the home Watts provides extra off-street parking; • Extra fees will be charged to cover city services; • Existing suites comply with building codes. Council members supported the recommendations unanimously. “I think it’s a balanced approach,” said Mayor Dianne Watts. “Like I said, the issues have been multiple suites, and contribution to garbage pick up and things like that.” The issue of secondary suites has dogged Surrey for years. In the 1970s, council prohibited secondary suites. Angry homeowners stormed city hall, saying they’d lose their homes if their suite income was taken away. The city abandoned that plan, then 10 years later attempted to limit suites to predetermined

A sandhill crane feeds its 10-day-old chick at David Hancock’s aviary in South Surrey.
s David Hancock swings open the gate to his yard, he is greeted by his regular house guests, the first of which include Bahama pintail and blue-billed ruddy ducks. “Hello guys, how are you?” Hancock says in a melodic voice as the waterfowl wade through a pond stretched across the lawn. The South Surrey acreage is home to about 20 bird species, some of which are permanent residents, while others – such as a family of wild Canada geese – are just visiting. The parents come to Hancock’s property annually to raise their young, and this year, they have with them four babies who are just learning to fly. Hancock, a biologist, said the youngsters will have seven to 10 days to master the skill before the family leaves and returns next February. Other feathered members of the backyard community are heard before they are seen. As Hancock navigates his way along the pond’s rock wall, he stops to listen to the cry of a nearby pileated woodpecker. It’s a baby, and the first time he has heard its call. While most of the inhabitants of Hancock’s property seem calm and indifferent to his approach, he steps more carefully around the sometimes aggressive, full-grown sandhill cranes. Just a few metres away are two adults with stilt-like legs, long, arching necks and pointed beaks. Their large, grey-feathered wings are folded around their bodies as they walk around the perimeter of the yard, watching their surroundings closely with eyes framed by a splash of red. They are wary, and Hancock warns they could strike if threatened. It’s easy to understand why, once the couple’s offspring – just the size of a See WORKING / Page 20

Verdict in Delta girl’s death
See Surrey Leader website for details by Dan Ferguson ON TUESDAY, a Surrey judge was
expected to deliver a decision in the case of Carol Berner, the woman charged in the May 2008 death of four-year-old Alexa Middelaer in Delta. The child was feeding some horses by the side of a Ladner street when she was hit by Berner’s car. The girl’s aunt was seriously injured in the same crash. Prosecutors were seeking a conviction on two counts of dangerous driving causing death and bodily harm, and two counts of impaired driving causing death and bodily harm. Berner never testified during her trial and never spoke to reporters outside court. Her lawyer, David Tarnow, said his client Middelaer was “sorrowful” about the fatal crash, but maintained she did nothing criminal. Delta Police conducted an undercover investigation, with offers posing as Berner potential new friends to get her to discuss the crash while a concealed video camera recorded her saying she was drinking wine before the crash. Berner failed a roadside blood alcohol test, but passed when she was later tested again at Delta Police headquarters. The ruling was due after The Leader’s print deadline. It is available online at www.surreyleader.com

fires as B.C. heads into the driest days of summer, but careless people are causing as much damage as ever. The B.C. government is expanding its campfire ban to include most of the province effective Thursday, July 29. Heading into its busiest camping weekend of the year with continued hot and dry weather expected, the Kamloops, Northwest, Cariboo and Prince George regions will join the Lower Mainland and Coast region under a ban on all open fires. That means burn barrels, tiki torches, fireworks and even industrial and burning-
permit fires are off limits in all regions except the Kootenays. Camp stoves may still be used. So far this year, 65 per cent of forest fires have been human-caused, compared to 40 per cent last year, despite a size limit imposed for campfires. Forests Minister Pat Bell said Monday the current forest fire season has seen 23,000 hectares burned and $27.1 million spent on firefighting. That’s less than half the damage as this time last year, when 47,000 hectares had burned and $64.9 million was spent. A fire at the base of Mount Seymour in North Vancouver Sunday was the season’s first interface fire, but it was contained before any homes were threatened. Witnesses said a campfire got out of control in a remote spot
near Northlands golf course. Another interface fire was contained quickly in West Kelowna on Sunday, after an evacuation alert was issued for homes in the area. Bell said he is encouraged by the relatively low damage so far this season, despite a hot July and drought conditions in some regions. “But that can all change in a very short period of time, and fire bans are now on throughout the province, with the exception of the Kootenay region,” he said. Unauthorized campfires are subject to a $345 fine, and there are penalties of up to $1 million fine or three years in prison for causing a wildfire. Enforcement officers will be out full force during the August long weekend.

they have spent almost $4 million (for the move). On the one hand they are tightening their belts, on the other hand they are just squandering this money. It’s totally unfair.” NDP Health Critic Adrian Dix said the hurried move to Surrey and the move back is “something of a fiasco.” He pointed out that the move of services to Surrey was publicly celebrated by FHA, and the transfer back to RCH was executed without any public notice. “This has been an incredibly divisive and poorly managed effort,” Dix said. “I think the public is going to be justifiably appalled.”

Delta: Suites offer affordable housing option, says mayor From page 1 zones, mostly in Newton. The backlash was fierce, as some people living in an area that allowed suites and had to pay about $700 annually for being situated in the premium zone – even though their homes were suite-free. And while Surrey was trying to contain the proliferation of suites, they were being built in unfinished basements throughout the city. In 1997, council passed a controversial secondary suite bylaw, allowing a fee to be levied to recover some of the costs created by the supplemental housing, including sewer, water and garbage pick-up. Watts noted the status quo is no longer an option. “We’re the last ones in the Lower Mainland to deal with this issue,” Watts said. “This is an issue that’s had a band-aid solution for 20 plus years – It’s high time we dealt with it.” Coun. Marvin Hunt said he was pleased with 63 per cent in favour of suites in the telephone poll. He wants to take a second

On Monday, Delta council unanimously gave final approval to three new bylaws to legalize and to establish regulations for secondary suites in single family homes in Delta. “Secondary suites offer a much-needed affordable housing option in our community,” Mayor Lois Jackson said Friday after a Thursday public hearing on the proposed regulations. “It has taken us a

staff estimate there are 5,300 to 7,000 secondary suites in Delta, many of which do not meet zoning or building code standards.
FIRE SEASON
The new regulations were drafted by the Delta Housing Task Force after a housing questionnaire last fall found that almost 60
per cent of the 600 people surveyed were in favour of legalizing secondary suites. Property owners with existing secondary suites won’t have to pay municipal fees for the inspection and reinspection of an existing secondary suite until Jan. 31, 2012. Under the bylaw enforcement program, all secondary suites will need to be registered with the Corporation of Delta, and owners will be required to pay additional annual utility fees. After Dec. 31, 2010 a $200 daily fine will come into effect for property owners who have more than one secondary suite in a single family dwelling, have a secondary suite that does not comply with the B.C. Building Code or have insufficient off-street parking. - with files from Dan Ferguson

Surrey RCMP were called around 12:15 p.m., after a semitrailer eastbound on 21 Avenue collided with a minivan that was travelling south on 192 Street. According to police, preliminary investigation indicates the truck did not stop at the stop sign. It struck the van on the passenger side.

PUBLIC INTEREST
Keeping court records accessible
RAESIDE
O
n Jan. 4 of this year, the ministry of the attorney general quietly introduced a fee structure for accessing criminal court records online. A charge of $6 would be levied each time a file or document was opened. The justification was the recovery of some of the costs associated with providing the online service, and to discourage frivolous record searches. For most people, it was an initiative of seemingly little significance, affecting perhaps only those who worked in legal circles. In fact, it carried the potential of profound public impact. Court records contain critical public information. The media relies heavily on that to keep the public informed about criminal justice proceedings, individuals who run afoul of the law, and the context of their crimes. When someone is charged with a serious offence, does that person have a previous criminal record? Is he or she connected with criminal organizations or other activities? Although that information can be accessed in person at court houses, many B.C. towns are served by court facilities in larger communities long distances away. The cumulative cost of frequent and numerous court record searches was prohibitive, especially for smaller papers and other media outlets. The potential result was restricted access, less detailed reporting, and a less informed public. Over the past several months, various media organizations, including Black Press, have lobbied Attorney General Mike de Jong to rescind the fees. Now, the AG announced the online criminal record search fee will be scrapped, as of Aug. 31. It was a commendable decision, ultimately made in the public interest. – Black Press

he B.C. government continues to innovate. First on the continent with an emission-based carbon tax, first in Western Canada to embrace the European-style value added tax, and now, first to plunge into high-stakes Internet casino gambling. Housing and Social Development Minister Rich Coleman did the big rollout for the Vancouver TV cameras last week, but the plan has been known since March. A sleepy little website where people can save a trip to the corner store to buy their Lotto Max tickets is given a sudden dose of corporate steroids: online slots, Texas hold ’em poker later this year, and a betting limit jacked up to $10,000 a week. Coleman defended this latest quantum leap in government gambling with a lurid scenario: kids borrowing Mum’s credit card from her purse and logging on for a no-limit spree at a casino site in the Cayman Islands. He claims B.C. gamblers are spending $100 million a year at unregulated sites that siphon profits offshore, and might be crooked to boot.

says there’s room in the market. We’ll see. At least it’ll give me a chance to tell him off about the freakin’ HST. Be careful out there. Big Julie But seriously, one question really matters here: is this an appropriate role for government? Coleman’s answer is that B.C. Lottery Corp. is a business. It exists for one reason, to make money for its four million shareholders. The board of directors decided to spend $325 million to upgrade its network and games, and once they get it working it should be fine. This is the same logic that led to lawyers for that other Crown corporation, BC Ferries, grinding out a chintzy settlement of a thousand bucks or so for passengers who fled the sinking Queen of the North. As Big Julie might say, nothing personal. It’s just business. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com

Weakening democracy IT IS A SAD DAY for not only peace
but especially democracy. I visited my father the other day and he was a little distressed by the violence at the G20, we talked about it and he came to realize that there would be worse to come. For an example we talked about the legal, peaceful, highly successful anti-HST petition that he signed and that got over 700,000 registered voters signatures and how it hadn’t swayed the government in the very least and had only subjected us to even more lies, and the waste of even more public tax dollars. Our elected public officials have shown nothing but contempt for the electorate, democracy and peaceful protest. The sad fact is that the only thing that ever has got people or politicians to sit up pay attention and then act to rectify any problem, is a bit of violence or public mayhem. As much as I hate this reality, my experience confirms that it is nonetheless the reality. We have politicians with no mandates telling an electorate they have the power to do whatever they feel like. What happens when an overwhelming force meets an immovable object?

It’s about time for green energy adoption IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE to count the number
of popular songs that celebrate the power of love. Love, it seems, is the perfect source of power in the universe. It costs nothing to produce. It doesn’t generate harmful emissions. And it doesn’t appear to have any negative environmental impacts. Wouldn’t it be great if we could somehow power our homes and businesses with love and forget about facing up to all the difficult questions surrounding our energy use such as
whether we should burn coal, dam rivers or even look at nuclear power? Unfortunately for us, love as a power source is as elusive as it can be in affairs of the heart. And until we can tap into science fiction energy sources like cold fusion, zero point energy fields and dilithium crystals we’re going to have to approach our difficult energy questions with sober minds and seek out the best, cleanest power sources available to us in the here and now. Fortunately, we are at a technological stage in human history where we can dispense with
burning coal and gas as power sources. Wind, run-of-river, biomass, geothermal, solar and many other renewable energy sources are available and they have more than proven themselves. All we need to do is step up the pace and start putting more of these green energy sources to work because they are the very best we have.

Surrey’s blueberry growing pains EVERY SUMMER the southern
reaches of Cloverdale take on the sounds of war, for local blueberry farmers have equipped themselves with enough cannons to ward off an invading army of starlings. Many residents have long ago tired of the constant gunshot noise every few seconds all day and summer long and have petitioned for help. Yet local politicians have either ducked from the issue or beat around the (blueberry) bush, never quite saying why they are ignoring their own noise bylaws and refusing to ever issue a fine – worried that they will lose support in Surrey’s vital voting block. Like the issue of secondary suites or unsafe streets or monster homes or truck parking or bad city planning or toll bridges, the longer one hides from an issue, the longer one stays in office. Citizens of Surrey deserve better from their elected representatives.

SFPR blocks new park RE: NEW PARK in Surrey Bend.
Marvin Hunt’s statement that “People in Fraser Heights who don’t want to go across the freeway to Tynehead will use it extensively” makes little sense unless the South Fraser Perimeter Road gets cancelled. The planned route of this new freeway would sever Surrey Bend from the Fraser Heights neighbourhood and the important wildlife corridors adjacent to the park. The SFPR should be cancelled and the extensive forest and wetland network currently outside the park boundaries should be added to the park. For more info including how to access the volunteer-built trail following the proposed freeway route through this forest see http:// wildernesscommittee.org/bend and http://gatewaysucks.org/trail Tom Jaugelis, Surrey

Get cleaning Broke after the Olympics BACK IN THE 1990s, young people like myself were
leaving B.C. in great numbers and heading to places like Alberta where the economic conditions and opportunities were much better. That’s a sad situation to be in. Alberta may not have any provincial sales tax, and it may not have any debt thanks to its diligent debtbusting during the 1990s, but it’s not home either. Fortunately the tide has now changed and B.C. is once again a province of opportunity and a far more attractive place for those of us who want to stay here. All of the economic indicators for B.C. have been pointing in the right direction and in most areas we’re leading the country. The one area where we’re falling behind, however, is in the critically important renewable energy and clean technology sector. Ontario recently stole the clean energy lead from B.C. and that represents jobs and opportunities that could have been ours here in B.C. If this province wants to keep its young people and keep the vigour and energy we bring to the mix then the province is going to have to redouble its efforts and regain the lead position in clean energy and technology that is rightfully ours. If we can do that then there is nothing that can stop us at all. Christian Albanese Coquitlam
THE OLYMPICS were a
waste of time, money and resources. Why the $925 million price tag? Can everyone in Vancouver afford a doctor? Do they all have someplace to live? Are they all drug free? No. And here we are spending close to a $1 billion for two weeks of fun in the snow. How do the politicians sleep at night, knowing they swindled the city and its people? I’ll tell you how. Very
peacefully. Because they don’t care about health care, helping the homeless, and saving the environment. They care about lining their pockets full of cash, then spending it all on useless things such as the Olympics. The Olympics brought us nothing but publicity. One of my teachers said it right: “All the Olympic Games should be carried out in some deserted island somewhere.
And the I.O.C. can pay for it itself. None of this crap about having a different country host every single Olympics. Just one secluded place where all the athletes can strut there stuff and not hurt our wallets and our nation. And when everyone can afford a doctor, food, and a place to live, then countries can host the Olympics. Oh, Canada.

Tobacco laws protect kids AFTER READING AN interesting article
regarding the new tobacco laws implemented in British Columbia that protect children from smoking by removing flavourful smokes from the shelves I kind of chuckled. As I was driving by a gas station the other day, there was a teenage boy around the age of 15 waiting outside the gas station. Stopped at the red light I decided to observe the surroundings, and a couple of minutes later noticed an older male around
29 handing the young boy a pack of cigarettes continued along his way. So, even though we think that young children are protected from smoking, there are still ways that many underage children get their hands on tobacco and liquor. I guess the problem is still waiting to be cured. Ruby Grewal Surrey

Better training for truck drivers delayed Funding issues blamed for postponement of pilot program by Dan Ferguson
A PILOT program that would train B.C. commercial truck drivers to a much higher standard has been postponed. The BC Professional Truck Driver Training Program was originally
set to begin this April, but “funding issues” have forced the delay until this fall, said Paul Landry, president of the British Columbia Trucking Association. He said it was a matter of lining up money from different industry

sources to sponsor the program. Novice drivers who take the course will have to complete eight weeks of classroom and behind-the-wheel training, followed by four weeks of supervised work experience and 1,000 hours of solo driving to receive a certificate of qualification. It’s modelled on a federal training program offered by the Canadian Trucking Human Resources Council in some provinces, Landry said. Currently, all a B.C. driver needs to get a Class 1 learner’s licence for big trucks is to pass a short test, Landry noted. He said some drivers just train for the test without learning how to handle the wider variety of situations they will encounter.
FILE PHOTO / THE LEADER
B.C. Trucking Association president Paul Landry says a new training program would allow drivers to be “recognized as the professionals they are.” For example, Landry said, he’d heard complaints from some shipping yard operators about drivers who struggle to back their trailers up to loading bays. If the fall pilot train-
LIST OF REGISTERED ELECTORS The List of Registered Electors (List) to be used for the 2010 Local Government By-Election for Councillor in The Corporation of Delta to be held on September 18, 2010, will be available for public inspection at Delta Municipal Hall during regular business hours, beginning Tuesday, August 3, 2010 until the close of general voting for this election at 8:00 p.m. on Saturday, September 18, 2010. An elector may request that personal information respecting the elector be omitted from or obscured on the List in accordance with Section 63 of the Local Government Act. OBJECTION TO REGISTRATION An objection to the registration of a person whose name appears on the List may be made in accordance with Section 64 of the Local Government Act and must be received by the Chief Election Officer before 4:00 p.m. August 13, 2010. An objection may only be made by a person entitled to be registered as an elector of Delta and can only be made on the basis that the person whose name appears on the List has died, or that at the time of objection, the person is not qualified to be registered as an elector in Delta. An objection must be made in writing, signed by the person making it and include the following: (a) the name and address, as shown in the List, of the person against whose registration the objection is made; (b) the basis of the objection, including a statement of the facts that the objector believes support this; and (c ) the name and address of the person making this objection. Before viewing the List a person must sign a statement that he or she will not inspect the List or use the information included on the List except for the purposes of the Election.

ing program is a success, organizers would like to see it become a provincewide requirement. “We want to train people for a career, to be recognized as the professionals they are,” Landry said. Landry said the B.C. trucking industry needs to recruit as many as 5,000 new drivers a year to replace people who retire or quit the industry. “We have more than our fair share of older workers,” Landry said.
If the tougher training standards are adopted provincewide, Landry said experienced drivers will not automatically be required to take the course, but they could be tested. The move to tougher training standards comes at a time when punishments for unsafe trucks are being toughened and incentives for trucking companies with good safety records are being deployed in a bid to improve the industry safety record. New rules are now in effect that allow commercial vehicle inspectors to seize licence plates of trucks with critical defects and hold them until repairs are made and owners present a plan assuring proper maintenance and monitoring. Inspectors now have more power to go after privately run “lick and stick” truck inspection facilities that do virtually nothing but complete the paper work and issue a decal.

Program that will give companies with good safety records special privileges, allowing their drivers to bypass some weigh stations and cut paperwork. An ICBC review has found defective heavy trucks are a factor in an average of three fatal collisions in B.C. each year and 53 crashes causing injuries. The leading causes are insecure loads, bad brakes or bad tires. Roadside blitzes by Lower Mainland commercial vehicle inspectors routinely find thousands of trucks each year with safety violations, often serious defects like dangerously rusted brakes. Failure rates of 40 to 50 per cent are not uncommon, although Landry said that’s because inspectors target rigs that are old and look most likely to be ill-maintained. He said truly random checks tend to find around 20 per cent of trucks require some sort of adjustment or repair.

Murder victim was a drug dealer, say police Surrey man found dead in burned out vehicle in Burnaby last year Black Press THE SURREY man
found dead in a burned out vehicle in Burnaby a year ago was a streetlevel drug dealer, police said Thursday. A spokesman for the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) said there have been some changes in the drug trade since 25-year-old John William Hanna of Surrey was murdered and they are hoping that will help them solve the case. “The street level drug trade is a very volatile industry,” said IHIT spokesperson Cpl. Dale Carr. “It is our belief that there have been some significant changes in the people in charge of the drug line that John Hanna was involved with. Those changes may now make people want to come forward with information.” On July 16, 2009 around 4 a.m., Burnaby RCMP received a call about shots fired in the 5600 block of Clinton Avenue. They arrived to find a fully engulfed vehicle burning at that location. After the Burnaby Fire Department extinguished the fire,

by Kevin Diakiw THE ZERO-WASTE
Challenge may be a thing of the past, as regional waste directors agree the target is unattainable. Implemented in 2008, the Zero-Waste Challenge encourages the 20 member cities of Metro Vancouver to reduce the amount of garbage headed for landfills. The problem is that some of the cities with the best practices worldwide are diverting only about 70 per cent of waste, with 80 per cent considered

an impossibility. Last week, Burnaby mayor and Metro director Derek Corrigan asked his colleagues on the waste committee to dispose of the Zero-Waste term. “It gives people the impression somehow it can be achieved,” Corrigan said. “It’s that kind of hyperbole that makes politicians the authors of their own misfortune.” He also said it’s embarrassing using the term in front of international audiences that know the target is impossible. Waste committee chair Greg Moore agreed. “I think there’s some good wisdom in there,” Moore said. Staff will revisit the challenge with the purpose of coming up with a more realistic target. Metro is aiming to attain a 70 per cent diversion by 2015. kdiakiw@surreyleader.com

Local Eco-Centre shelved for now Surrey promised a local waste drop-off 15 years ago by Kevin Diakiw
SOUTH SURREY and White Rock residents will keep driving further to drop off recyclables. A dog fight continues at Metro Vancouver over whether the region will build a local residential drop
off (RDO) facility to service the south end of Surrey. The promise to build one is contained in a 15-year-old agreement, and in several letters since. Since the original agreement, Metro Vancouver staff now want to make it a larger Eco-
Centre, which could process recyclables on site. The latest draft of the Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan states the region should “establish the first Eco-Centre in Surrey to replace the commitment for residential drop off facility

Surrey watching ban on medical grow-ops Federally sanctioned grows not permitted or inspected by Kevin Diakiw SURREY IS watching closely as
the City of Pitt Meadows has given early endorsement to a ban from growing medical marijuana in that municipality. Health Canada allows the medicinal use of marijuana for several conditions, including severe pain or muscle spasms from multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury or disease, pain or nausea from cancer or HIV and seizures from epilepsy. On Tuesday, Pitt Meadows council held a public hearing on a bylaw amendment that would ban the growing of marijuana for medical purposes. The proposed bylaw amendment would still allow production of medical marijuana for personal use, but would outlaw cultivation for sale. Council endorsed the bylaw at third reading and is expected to give it final adoption in September, making it the first city in Canada to disallow the federally sanctioned activity. Surrey Fire Chief Len Garis said the Pitt Meadows move is quite bold, and noted this city
has existing bylaws that preclude growers from conducting business in urban areas. Because it’s a horticultural use, and it is for profit, medical grows are not allowed in a residential setting, he said. Garis has long said the medical grows are often wired incorrectly and pose a high risk of causing a structure fire. He notes that they are not permitted, regulated or deemed safe by a city inspector. While Health Canada stipulates permits are required, federal health minister Leona Aglukkaq wrote in a letter to the Federation of Canadian Municipalities in April: “Health Canada does not, however, verify com-
pliance with these requirements either before or after licensing.” She also referred to a “reform exercise” being undertaken. Health Canada has declined city requests for the locations of the authorized growers for privacy reasons. Garis said he’s also been unable to find out how many there are. About 2,800 production licences have been issued to medical marijuana growers in Canada. Garis said of the six Lower Mainland municipalities participating in a new Electrical Fire and Safety Initiative, there have been 50 medical grow-ops found. Garis said it’s possible Surrey could introduce a similar bylaw to that of Pitt Meadows, depending on how it stands up to legal challenges. Surrey is also watching closely to see what the federal government does with its “reform exercise.” Studies have shown that dwellings with marijuana grow operations are 24 times more likely to catch fire.

John Kageorge has been nationally recognized for his work in communications, winning an outstanding achievement award from the Canadian Public Relations Society. Kageorge, who runs Vital Communications, was acknowledged amongst his peers at the CPRS national conference awards gala last month in Regina for his work as the chair of the 2009 CPRS National
Conference in Vancouver. Kageorge stepped into the role after the then-conference chair was seriously injured in a water accident. According to a release, the 2009 conference – under Kageorge’s leadership – was one of the most successful in CPRS history, attracting 350 delegates and earning a surplus despite the economic downturn. “John’s name has become synonymous with the conference’s success,” said Michael

Kageorge said receiving the award – one of six major awards presented at this year’s gala – was a humbling experience. “I feel way too young to receive one of the highest honours – it’s intimidating,” he said. “This particular honour is very meaningful because it comes from great talent across the country that realize how critical it is that the public receive information in an honest, forthright manner from companies and non-profits, and that they connect well.”

Second-hand smoke subject of complaint
152 St & 104 Ave
by Tracy Holmes A B.C. HUMAN Rights
Tribunal hearing centred on second-hand smoke is hoped to result in better protection for residents of subsidized housing, says Rose Marie Borutski. The resident of Kiwanis Park Place in South Surrey led the
effort that resulted in next month’s hearing, set to begin Aug. 16. Borutski believes it will have a provincewide impact for many seniors and people with disabilities. “The health hazard of drifting second-hand smoke explodes into critical mass when considering all (multi-unit
dwellings) provincially and nationally,” she stated in a press release. The complaints, first filed nearly two years ago, allege discrimination based on physical disability due to secondhand smoke in subsidized suites at the 12850 126 St. complex. According to Borutski, changes have
been made since the conflict began – including the introduction of smoke-free rental agreements – but they haven’t gone far enough.

Surrey loses season opener in Nanaimo
Rams fall to Raiders by Nick Greenizan SATURDAY’S MUCH-ANTICIPATED rematch
between the Surrey Big Kahuna Rams and Vancouver Island Raiders – who met in last year’s B.C. Football Conference final – ended the same way as the first: with a convincing Raiders’ win. Against Big Kahuna, the Nanaimo-based Raiders – the defending Canadian Junior Football League champs – jumped out to an early lead on home turf and never let up, eventually going home with a 37-13 victory. The Raiders got on the board in the first quarter, when Mike Schaper hauled in a touchdown pass from quarterback Jordan Yantz – one of five touchdowns the pivot threw on the day – and led 16-0 by halftime. The Rams got on the board in the third quarter – when rookie quarterback Nathaniel White connected with Everad Jackson for a 15-yard score – but had another score called back on a penalty, which opened the door for Vancouver Island to extend its lead. Special teams wizard Nick Downey had the Rams’ other touchdown, scoring on a 65-yard run Mike Schaper late in the fourth quarter. Downey with 80 yards rushing, Griffin Bullock with four receptions for 73 yards, and Matt Chapdelaine with three catches for 49 yards, were the team’s offensive leaders. Though the Rams are trying to work several new players into the offence – including White, at quarterback – the offence still managed to tally 252 total yards. But it was the team’s defence that struggled against the Raiders’ attack. The Raiders finished with 497 yards of total offence, with 398 of those yards coming from Yantz, who picked apart the Rams through the air. “The plays that we knew would work actually worked ... We knew everything they were going to do,” said Schaper, who finished with 115 yards receiving and two touchdowns. The Rams will look to even their record this Saturday in Kelowna, against the Okanagan Sun. Kickoff is 7 p.m. at the Apple Bowl.
Svensson wins B.C. Amateur title by Rick Kupchuk

GREG SAKAKI / BLACK PRESS
South Surrey Rams receiver Matt Chapdelaine is taken down by Vancouver Island Raiders defenders during the first game of the Canadian Junior Football League season on Saturday at Nanaimo’s Caledonia Park. The Rams lost 37-13.
ADAM SVENSSON continues to dominate on the golf course. The Surrey resident put together four solid rounds to win the B.C. Amateur Championship last week in Castlegar, the third major victory this month for the 16-year-old who is now the youngest ever winner of the event. Svensson fired rounds of 67-71-68-70 for an eight-under par total of 276, five strokes clear of a trio of golfers who tied for second place. Justin Shin of Pitt Meadows Adam Svensson was in that group, after trailing Svensson by just one shot with three shots to play. Svensson put an end to the challenge with an eagle on 16. “I was hitting the ball great and I putted great,” said Svensson. “I was plus one on the front, so pressure was on for the back. I was one up on 15. Justin doubled and I eagled 16. That took the pressure off.” Svensson, who had earlier won both the B.C. Junior title in Courtenay and the Callaway Junior World tournament in San Diego, has now qualified to be part of the B.C. team which will compete at the Canadian Amateur Championships next month in London, Ontario. But before that, he will tee it up at the Canadian Junior Championship Aug. 3-6 at the Richmond Golf and Country Club.
Chiefs, Blue Jays advance to final four Fraser Valley, North Delta win playoff series to qualify by Rick Kupchuk THE B.C. Premier Baseball League final four
playoff will include both the North Delta Blue Jays and the Fraser Valley Chiefs. The two local teams in the elite 18-andunder league qualified for next weekend’s championship tournament by winning their respective best-of-three quarterfinal playoff series on the weekend. The Blue Jays swept the Vancouver Cannons by scores of 5-1 and 10-8 Saturday at Mackie Park in North Delta, while the Chiefs needed all three games to eliminate the Abbotsford Cardinals. Fraser Valley won Saturday’s opening game 4-0, then dropped the rematch 4-3 at Whalley Ball Park.
In the deciding game Sunday, the Chiefs won 4-2. North Delta did all their scoring in the fifth inning in game one Saturday, with Cam Frick driving in three runs with the second of two doubles he hit. Matt Tompkins was the winning pitcher, allowing an unearned run on five hits and a pair of walks. The Blue Jays almost won game two in five innings, then had to hang on for a 10-8 victory. The home side led 10-0 going into the bottom half of the fifth inning, but Vancouver scored once to avoid having the game called on the 10-run mercy rule. They almost completed a comeback from the double-digit deficit, scoring four in the sixth and three
more in the seventh before North Delta got the final out. Reed Lavallee and Cam Frick each doubled and drove in three runs for the Jays. C.J. Pentland also hit a double, and finished the game with a pair of RBIs. Fraser Valley took advantage of a completegame shutout by pitcher Justin Pilgrim in game one of their series with Abbotsford. The Cardinals earned just five hits and a pair of walks off Pilgrim, who struck out eight batters in seven innings. Adam Quan led the offence with two hits, including a double, in three at-bates. He also scored once. The Chiefs couldn’t hold a 3-1 lead in game two, and lost in nine innings. Alex Dunbar

took the loss, despite throwing a five-hitter over seven innings, not giving up a walk. But the Chiefs collected just three hits all game, two of them doubles by Quan and Brandon Bufton. In Sunday’s deciding contest, Fraser Valley opened the scoring with three runs in the third inning, then hung on for the victory. Jaymes Proutt allowed just four hits and three walks in six innings to get the win. Mitch Dornblut was two-for-three with a pair of RBIs. Fraser Valley and the Blue Jays join the Victoria Mariners and Langley Blaze in the fourteam double knockout playoff next weekend at Nat Bailey Stadium in Vancouver.

Working for a
crane
comeback
David Hancock’s aviary includes tropical birds as well as native species such as sandhill cranes (above) and ruddy ducks (below).
Q Photos by Boaz Joseph
White-cheeked turaco.
From page 1 month-old kitten – emerges from some shrubbery, and scurries to catch up with mom and dad. “Hello! How are you doing?” Hancock says as he walks towards the family. “What a fine little baby you’ve got there.” The cranes edge away and head the other direction – a much different reaction than the one he receives from a pair of caged crane parents. As Hancock approaches the duo, they make a loud trumpeting call in unison, before onee runs at the fence, wings at full span. It’s the distinction between captive-reared ed and wild cranes, Hancock said. While those se in ed the wild avoid humans, ones that have lived around people aren’t afraid to get close and attack. He’s observed the behaviour through his studies of the birds, which he is undertaking in hopes of helping them breed and, ultimately, replenish their dwindling population. “I think this is such a neat indigenous bird,” he says. “It would be nice to have them back again.”
H
ancock has had a passion for birds since catching his first hawk at 11 years old and becoming a falconer. He spent most of his life studying West Coast and Arctic wildlife, and worked as a pilot and wildlife film producer. While Hancock has published writings on whales, seals, seabirds, grouse and northern native cultures, his specialty is in northern raptors, particularly eagle. His most recent noted work has been with live bald eagle streaming video cameras, a study that has turned up more than 300 nesting pairs in Greater Vancouver.
On top of lecturing, Hancock also runs his own publishing company that specializes in western Canadian history, native culture and nature and wildlife books. He uses the business to support his other pursuit, the Hancock Wildlife Foundation, which strives to promote the conservation of wildlife and its habitats. He runs both organizations out of his 0 Avenue property, where his house, office and around 20 aviaries can be found. Hancock said there were 135 pens at one time, but bu most collapsed under heavy snowfall a few winters ago, while the birds were indoors. ere are also a number of some Ther exotic, non-indigenous species on exo his property, including a number hi of tropical turacos, such as the o white-cheeked and Lady Ross w varieties. Currently, he is focusing on ccranes.
W
hile there is little chance of Hancock getting close to a b baby crane guarded by its two defensive parents, there are many captivereared youngsters youn who are eager to socialize. They follow him around while he visits the aviaries, peck at the buttons on his shirt and attempt to untie his shoelaces. They are inquisitive, friendly and likable. Hancock said his daughter, Mia, aas a young teen, had a crane for be three years after it hatched at her bedside and imprinted on her as his de facto mother. It was not unco uncommon for Mia to pack Gus up in the car and take him to Crescent Beach. “As long as you have lots of napkins, it’s okay,” Hancock said, smiling. She would also help him practise flying by running ahead of him

Cranes: Captive rearing can help in the wild
From page 20
on 192 Street. Gus would follow, and, upon reaching a dip in the road, take off into the air. He would always come home after. Although baby cranes are affable, they don’t stay that way. Within a few years, Hancock said, they become hostile and attack humans. The behaviour is similar to the birds’ instinct upon hatching. Although all cranes lay two eggs, they only raise one baby, as one offspring kills the other, he said. Hancock intervenes before this happens, taking one of the eggs for him and his staff to raise. Once the young birds get big, they are no longer violent towards each other, and can intermingle. Captive-rearing the cranes is part of his goal to help them in the wild. Hancock said wild cranes insist on large, secluded areas to breed, which is problematic when much of their habitat is encroached upon by people. His aim is to help the birds adapt to smaller areas, where they can raise young – something he said many wild cranes haven’t done for years. “Our local populations are on the verge of being nothing,” he said. “Cranes demand absolute isolation and privacy. If we raise them in captivity, we might be able to get them to nest in their natural areas that are reduced in size. “By captive-rearing the birds, they get a little more accustomed to people and built up surroundings.” Hancock would like to see crane habitats enclosed with coyote-proof
Spreo fences, and believes captive-reared cranes would be more likely to stay within the confines than wild ones. “I need to show people cranes can fend for themselves,” he said, noting he hopes to replicate similar projects that proved successful with eagles and peregrine falcons. “Initially, you have to show it’s possible.” With all the nearby wild crane areas – such as Burns Bog and the Serpentine Fen – unfenced from coyotes, the next step is finding someone to invest in the undertaking. “That’s a fairly big expense.” But that’s not stopping Hancock from trying. He’s determined to see sandhill cranes back in habitats
where they’ve been known to successfully raise young, seek protection and thrive – the homes they’ve been forced out of.
David Hancock feeds three of his sandhill crane chicks, left, and above, hands a grape to a Lady Ross Turaco.
