Police pool resources in hunt for teen’s killer Investigators descend on Delta by Dan Ferguson

MORE THAN 100 police officers from Delta and around the Lower Mainland are working on the investigation of Laura Szendrei’s murder. Mackie Park and two neighbouring schools, Gray Elementary and Sands Secondary, remained behind police lines Monday, as officers hunted for evidence in the Saturday afternoon attack that killed the pretty 15-year-old affectionately known as “Snooki” at Burnsview Secondary, where she was in Grade 10.

last drink was consumed the night before he arrived at the Surrey RCMP roadblock at the on-ramp to the Golden Ears Bridge. But the officer who spoke to him Friday night had his doubts. He put the driver to the test using a portable breath alcohol device. “Blow,” the Mountie said. “Keep going,” he told the driver, over and over.

But the man wasn’t trying very hard. “Okay, that was not a usable sample,” the Mountie said. “That was a pretend sample.” Under Canadian law, failing to provide a usable breath sample is the same as a refusal. The RCMP officer gave the driver another chance. This time, he did it properly. A high-pitched tone announced a “fail” reading. “Eleven milligrams of alcohol,” the officer said. “You’ve had a drink more recently than yesterday.”

Laura: On her way to meet friends From page 1 Szendrei is being remembered as an outstanding student and a feisty competitor who made up for her small size on the soccer field with sheer determination. She was on her way to meet some friends at a football game at Sands Secondary around 1:30 p.m. when she was attacked in a heavily wooded section of the small municipal park. A friend heard her scream. She died the next day in hospital. On Monday, behind the yellow do-notcross tape, a Port Moody police cruiser could be seen in a school parking lot next to the Delta Police Department (DPD) mobile command post, a large heavy-duty trailer crammed with police gear. In another lot, an Abbotsford Police cruiser was guarding another mobile command post and a New Westminster Police van was on the street. RCMP and transit police were also offering assistance. Several of the officers on the scene had come from the Lower Mainland Tactical Troop and the Municipal Integrated Emergency Response Team – two regional police agencies. Some were conducting a painstaking sweep of the underbrush near the attack scene while others could be seen on the roof of one school. Officers were also going door-to-door, interviewing area residents. Delta Police spokesperson Sgt. Sharlene Brooks said even more officers may be called in “as the investigation dictates.” Mourners had taped bouquets of flowers to a sign post outside the park. Local resident Cassandra Gordon came by Monday afternoon to pay her respects. Gordon, a dog walker who often uses he

Before the meeting, Brooks warned people about believing the many stories making the rounds about the murder. “It’s very difficult for us to quell the rumours and speculation,” Brooks said. There has been a lot of it, some of it quite offensive on the Internet, the apparent work of so-called “trolls” who set out to rile online

readers with their remarks. At least one memorial site has been closed to comments as a result. Brooks confirmed police were not ruling out the possibility the attack was related to two other incidents in Delta parks in May and June where women were approached from behind and struck on the head. The victims managed to escape without serious injury, but were unable to get a good look at their attacker. “We’re not discounting any possibilities,” Brooks said. “We’re pursuing all avenues.” The DPD is still looking for a young male seen leaving the park around 1:15 p.m. on the day of incident.

He is described as 16 to 25 years old with a medium build wearing a white short-sleeve shirt and cargo-style shorts to the knees. He had what is believed to be a backpack on his back and was either on the phone or texting while walking out of the park at 81A Avenue heading east. “[This person] may possess information that they’re not even aware to be significant,” Brooks said. Police are also advising residents to take precautions by walking in groups and staying in visible high-traffic areas. Delta Police can be reached at 604-9464411.

Penalties: New impaired driving rules took effect Sept. 20

From page 1

Under new drinking-and-driving penalties that took effect Sept. 20, the driver could instantly lose his licence for 90 days and his car could be impounded for 30 days. That’s under the Immediate Roadside Prohibition program or IRP. Before the IRP, officers could impose 24-hour roadside suspensions on drivers, but the length of the suspension did not increase on second and third suspensions. Officers could also impose 90-day driving bans, but the suspension would not take effect for 21 days to give drivers time to mount a legal challenge. Now, under the IRP, a first-time driving suspension is for three days with the vehicle impounded for the same period. A second suspension and impoundment is for seven days, and a third is for 30.

BOAZ JOSEPH / THE LEADER

A driver passes a roadside breathalyzer test.

And when a 90-day driving ban is imposed under the IRP it takes effect on the spot, with no 21-day grace period. The breath alcohol limits are unchanged. A “fail” on a portable test device is still more than the .08 limit allowed under the Criminal Code while a “warn” is a reading of more than .05 which is less than the legal maximum. However, the penalties for a “warn” reading are substantially higher. Drivers don’t receive a criminal record under the IRP, but they lose their vehicle and their licence instantly. There is an appeal process, but only for drivers who lose their vehicles for 30 days. The program also levies larger fines and fees – from a $500 administrative fee for a suspension to a $700 towing fee and more. At least one driver at the Surrey check stop got the full IRP treatment, a 90-day loss of licence and their vehicle seized for 30 days. Some critics complain the rules give police too much power. Delta-South MLA Vicki Huntington is hoping police will exercise good judgement when applying the revamped rules she believes are a “little heavy-handed.” While Huntington acknowledged the need for safer driving practices, she said she is wary for drivers who may be seriously penalized without actually being legally over the blood alcohol limit of .08. “I’m having a little trouble with the ability of the police to take your car away or challenge you on the .05 limit because that isn’t illegal,” she said. The officers who deal directly with drunk drivers support the measures. “The new legislation gives us more power to enforce the laws,” said Surrey RCMP Const. Peter Neily. “Anything that is going to enhance safety on our roads, the Delta Police Department (DPD) supports,” said DPD Sgt. Sharlene Brooks.

INTERNET

Ugly side of surfing

RAESIDE

uddenly social media don’t seem so social anymore. Last weekend, a teenage girl was beaten to death in a North Delta park; her friends immediately launched tribute pages in her memory on the social networking site, Facebook. The heartfelt postings were soon interlaced with tawdry photos and other malicious nonsense. The previous week, the sexual assault of another teenage girl at a party in Pitt Meadows became Facebook fodder, as witnesses posted photos and hurled attacks on the victim’s character. A new documentary film, Catfish, chronicles the unsettling relationship formed over Facebook between a freelance photographer in New York City and the family of an eight year-old girl in Northern Michigan who adapted one of his photos into a painting. Another film, about to be released, tells a fictionalized account of the founding of Facebook, portraying its young creator as a bit of a social reject when it comes to interacting with real live human beings. In Arkansas, a radio sports reporter was recently fired for, among other things, posting derogatory comments about her new community on her Twitter page. While the Internet has opened up vast new ways for people to connect and share information, such unbridled freedom brings with it a level of responsibility. Unfortunately, the relative anonymity offered by the World Wide Web and social sites like Facebook, MySpace and Twitter, where anyone with enough imagination to create a username and password can easily concoct an entirely fictional personality, also opens the web to miscreants with mischief and malice on their minds. “Trolls,” as they’re commonly called, rarely think about the consequences of their actions. They stir up virtual trouble just for the thrill of eliciting a reaction. They spread rumours, relay gossip, demean or degrade just because they can. The results of their keyboard tapping can destroy reputations, relationships, careers, even lives. Perhaps in this time of social media, it’s also time for a refresher on social and personal responsibility. – Black Press

cientist-activist David Suzuki was billed as the keynote speaker at a recent rally at the B.C. legislature to oppose construction of Site C, a third hydroelectric dam on the Peace River. Suzuki did not appear, so I wasn’t able to determine how he would square his presumed opposition with his furious advocacy for greenhouse gas reduction. In April, his foundation responded to the B.C. government’s announcement that it would proceed to the environmental assessment stage on Site C with a series of recommendations. Those included further environmental assessment (now underway), a province-wide study of B.C.’s renewable energy plans and review of the social and cultural impacts on the Treaty 8 First Nations in the region. The Treaty 8 group, funded by Indian and Northern Affairs Canada, participated in a 15-month study of the project. The rally marked their determination to reject it.

mercury in fish as a result of the dam. That’s the kind of claim that is seized upon by environmental campaigners such as the Wilderness Committee and Sierra Club of B.C., who helped organize this rally. It’s true that flooding vegetation promotes bacteria that bring naturally occurring mercury into the food chain. It’s also true that this declines as the vegetation decays, as a 2008 study of whitefish and bull trout in the Peace River tends to confirm. It’s also true that mercury occurs in fish all over the world, and in terms of actual mercury concentrations, Logan and others in the region should be more concerned about canned tuna purchased at grocery stores in Fort St. John. But you won’t hear much about climate change or science in this debate. It’s all about the politics. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews. com.

First of all, sending a delegation there is meaningless. Various government-level trade missions have proved fruitless. Ask Gordon Campbell about the business generated for B.C. when his delegation visited India. I can understand at a federal level we need good relations with India, but on a business level, India is nowhere close to China and its various investments. Most of Surrey’s Indo-Canadian population originate from Punjab, but Mayor Watts decided to go to the more scenic Mumbai with its five-star hotels. What is she trying to achieve? Save the money Mayor Watts, spend it on some useful projects. If you want a free curry, I’ll gladly buy you one.

Sept. 7. Surrey’s chronic lack of school space and over-reliance on portable classrooms are part of a larger problem that has existed for decades. While much of the blame lies with the provincial government for failing to provide funds for new schools, at least some of the blame lies with our own city council.

For too long, council has allowed an extremely high rate of growth without demanding that the corresponding infrastructure be built. The Surrey Civic Coalition (SCC) believes that council and the Surrey Board of Education should work together on a school construction strategy. When current SCC Coun. Bob Bose was mayor, building permits were withheld

until funding for new schools was in place. As a result, developers joined with other groups to lobby the provincial government, and new school construction took place in a timely fashion. It is time for council to re-examine this strategy.

What happened to North Delta?

MOST OF us in North Delta are ask-

BOAZ JOSEPH / THE LEADER

ing: Is it safe to live in this community? What has been happening in North Delta lately is unprecedented and the community is living on the edge. It seems that crime is rampant and the disturbing part is that there have been no charges laid or any arrests made. Just in September alone following disturbing incidents have taken place: • Homicide in Mackie Park; • Police incident and lockdown of Jarvis Elementary School; • Seizure of doda at a flower shop and then a truck load of it found; • Discovery of marijuana grow operation in Burns Bog; • Knife assault on a woman at the Scottsdale Mall parking lot. In addition we have had two assaults on women near the Burns Bog area. These are the reported crimes and one wonders how many unreported crimes have occurred. The mayor and the police chief have to come up with some effective strategy and assure the people of North Delta on their safety and security. We need to know what steps are being taken to make this community safe again.

A police ofﬁcer adjusts crime scene tape at Mackie Park, 10900 82 Avenue, where a 15-year-old girl was fatally beaten on Saturday.

TramTrain is the Valley’s best option LAST MONDAY, Rail for the Val-

ley and Leewood Projects (UK) released a historic and revolutionary TramTrain report for Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley. The TramTrain plan is historic, for it is the first time in over 30 years that a transit study, independent of political and bureaucratic influence, has been release to the public, giving an affordable option to TransLink’s expensive SkyTrain planning. The TramTrain plan is revolutionary because it gives economic 21st-century transit solutions for the region, instead of costly and dated 1950s metro and subway planning. TramTrain is a reinvention of the interurban and is part of the large light rail family, which sees over 450 such systems in operation around the world. First operated in Karlsruhe, Germany in 1993, the new TramTrain proved so suc-

cessful that ridership on the new TramTrain line (which replaced a commuter train and one transfer) exploded from 533,600 per week to over 2,555,000, (almost 480 per cent increase) in just a few months. Karlsruhe now operates over 410 kilometres of TramTrain, including lines in the environmentally sensitive Black Forest, with the longest route being over 210 kms. As TramTrain is inexpensive to

build, TramTrain lines do not need the massive densification needed by SkyTrain and the Canada Line. TramTrain can pass through sensitive ALR lands, leaving farm lands as they are and prevent rampant land speculation and development that more expensive transit modes need to sustain them. The Rail for the Valley /Leewood plan also gives glimpse in the future with the initial line expand-

Driven to distraction SURREY COUNCIL has voted to approve an electronic billboard near the Pattullo Bridge. Am I missing something? It is now illegal to use hand-held cellphones when driving. Why? To stop drivers being distracted. What is the point of electronic billboards? To have people look at them. If they’re beside a road, it’s certain that drivers are the target audience. So the point is to have drivers look at the billboards, when they should be looking at the road. Logic suggests that they be made illegal, as with cellphones. What is it I’m missing? Jim Gunson, Surrey

ing to Vancouver, Richmond and Rosedale. Why build the 11-km, $1.4-billion plus SkyTrain Evergreen Line, when we can build a 138-km Vancouver/Richmond to Rosedale TramTrain service for under $1 billion, with enough money left over to build a Vancouver to Maple Ridge TramTrain service, as TransLink planned for in the late 1990s. Today there are 14 cities with TramTrain operation (only seven cities have SkyTrain), with a further 20 TramTrain operations being planned for. One hopes the region’s mayors’ council boards the TramTrain for better public transit, if not they will be left behind at the station, waiting for a SkyTrain that will never come.

Six murder victim Chris Mohan was talking about the third annual Ed Schellenberg/Chris Mohan Memorial Golf Tournament held Friday at the Hazelmere Golf Course in South Surrey. Mohan supports raising funds for a scholarship in the name of his son and Schellenberg of Abbotsford, but he wishes it wasn’t necessary. Schellenberg, 55, and Mohan, 22, were killed in an East Whalley Ring Road highrise suite in October of 2007, apparently murdered because the killers of four other men didn’t want any witnesses. Schellenberg was a gas fitter who was working in the building where the murders took place and Mohan lived next door to the murder scene. “We don’t want to see another family going through what we’re going through,” Mohan said.

Thanks to some lastminute registrations in the last few days, the number of paid participants (70) was up slightly from the year before. It was welcome news to Eileen Mohan, mother of Chris, who was wondering whether interest in the three-year-old case was fading. “We’ll be raising more money to hand out for scholarships in the name of Chris and Ed,” she said. The Mohan-Schellenberg scholarships are to help at-risk youth stay in school. So far, four scholarships in Surrey have been funded and four more will be awarded in Abbotsford later this year and early next year. Ed Schellenberg’s wife Lois said events like the golf tournament are a way of keeping the memories from fading. “I think opportunities like this keep it in the forefront,” she said.

“You always hope people don’t forget.” She added people who personally knew Ed will always remember him, noting that some former colleagues from the gas fitting industry were taking part in the tournament. Another participant was RCMP Cpl. Dale Carr, who speaks for the Integrated Homicide Investigation team (IHIT), the regional agency that investigated the murders. Last year Dennis Karbovanec pleaded guilty to three counts of second-degree murder in the Surrey Six killings. Four other men face first-degree murder charges. They are in jail awaiting trial. A fifth was charged with manslaughter and is currently free on bail. Carr said a trial in the case is at least a year away.

Concerns over eco-study

We Support Local Farmers

Surrey used outdated data, environmentalists say A LONG-AWAITED ecological

review of Surrey has come up short, according to local environmentalists. Over the last year, the city consulted with the public over its draft Ecosystem Management Study (EMS), a document identifying environmentally sensitive areas within Surrey. David Suzuki Foundation biologist John Werring says the review is a great idea, but some of the principles in putting it together are flawed. Werring, a North Surrey resident, wrote the city last month, detailing his list of concerns. He notes that the data used in preparing the EMS is out of date. “Several of the vegetated ‘sites’ that are plotted on the inventory maps no longer exist as green spaces,” Werring wrote in the Aug. 12 letter to Mayor Dianne Watts. He also noted the maps within the draft document are huge and carry very little detail. “The ‘Sensitive Species Occurrences and Habit’ map is very

Premier weighs in on transit debate

P U B L I C N OT I C E

Inside Track ...with Dan Jukich Since we’re going to be sharing this space together over the course of the 2010-2011 harness racing season at Fraser Downs, I thought I’d take a minute to introduce myself. Horse racing – both of the standardbred and thoroughbred varieties – has been part of my life since my father introduced me to the sport as a toddler. My late dad was Roy Jukich, a sportswriter with the Vancouver Sun and the old News Herald. He covered a variety of assignments, including racing when it was front-page news in the 1950s. He encouraged me to get into the business and after realizing I wasn’t going to make it as a major league baseball player, I began calling races at Cloverdale as a ﬁll-in back 1978. It led to a full-time gig at Hastings Racecourse in 1990 and despite a few road bumps along the way, the broadcast booth at Hastings has been my second home for almost two decades. I am also quite familiar with life behind the microphone at Fraser Downs. While my good friend Rick Uppal is the talented ‘voice of the races’ at the Downs, I’m always around should he need a night off. My main responsibility at Fraser Downs in recent years is making sure the simulcast telecasts are in order, both sending the Downs coverage out to North American channels and making sure we have ample coverage of out of town races. Over the next several months the purpose of this column will be to enlighten Surrey Leader readers about everything that’s happening at Fraser Downs and also – and this is important – ask for feedback. From time to time we will be offering dinners for two at Fraser Downs to those who send comments and questions to Inside Track addressed to me at djukich@fraserdowns.com We’re all looking forward to the opening of the 2010-2011 season on Friday, Oct. 1. The big question will be: “Can Ed Hensely repeat in such impressive fashion as leading driver and leading trainer?” Hensley took Fraser Downs by storm last season by locking up both titles a month before the schedule drew to a close in mid-June. Can you believe these stats: 159 driving wins with earnings of $865,466; 118 wins training with earnings of $859,492? Nobody else was even close. “Fast Eddie’ has returned to the Downs after spending almost three months on the U.S. circuit and brought with him more than 20 horses that he’ll be working with over the coming season. As superstars in local sporting circles go, Ed Hensley is to harness racing what Geroy Simon is to the BC Lions and Henrik Sedin to the Vancouver Canucks. They’re at the head of their class. I’m looking forward to sharing my “Inside Track” information with you during the Fraser Downs season. Let’s have some fun with it.

Gordon Campbell discusses SkyTrain versus light rail by Jeff Nagel SKYTRAIN DETRACTORS should consider the ben-

efits of the technology and not focus solely on the lower cost of building new rapid transit lines with at-grade light rail, Premier Gordon Campbell said. “It does cost less in capital – it costs about $150 million less,” the premier said in an interview with Black Press, referring to price estimates for the Evergreen Line to Coquitlam. “But you know the operating costs of the SkyTrain are about 50 per cent a year less than with light rail. And the ridership is two-and-a-half times greater with SkyTrain.” The decision to make the Evergreen Line a SkyTrain extension rather than a separate light rail line will move more people, faster at lower long-term costs, he predicted. Campbell spoke Thursday, two days after the release of a new study from advocates who say a 100-kilometre light rail line from Surrey to Chilliwack can be opened on existing railway tracks for less than $500 million, compared to $1.4 billion for the 11-kilometre Evergreen Line. Several mayors, including Surrey’s Dianne Watts, have lobbied for light rail for future lines. Campbell signed an accord with Metro Vancouver mayors Sept. 23 promising to explore a multitude of methods to raise more cash for transit expansion. He said mayors are free to put on the table even contentious options like a vehicle levy or forms of road pricing, which the agreement notes can help shape how people choose to travel. He said an “adult conversation” is required on the options to fund TransLink for the future. Other parts of B.C. need transportation upgrades too, he said, adding the province will be hesitant about steering money to TransLink that deepens B.C.’s deficit or makes it harder to fund health care.

EXPOSED!

“Regular Joe” Plumber & Wife Speak Out and Reveal the Raw Truth About That Canadian “Multi-Millionaire,” Darren Weeks, and his How to Get Rich in Canada Seminars.

Brian Lauer a “Regular Joe” This guy, Darren Weeks, promises all sorts of things to us average Canadians about how we can get out of the “Canadian Rat Race” and on to the “Fast Track” He claims that people can start from scratch and become “Rich” in 5 years or less. He talks about wrestling back control of your finances from the Big Banks and Financial Planners. He says he teaches people how to buy Canadian Real Estate with “No Money Down”, and many other “creative” money making ideas and so on. Every time I used to read one of his ads, I thought, “Who could be dumb enough to fall for this guy’s smoke & mirrors?” Now, I’m going to tell you the raw truth about Darren Weeks and his “How to Get Rich in Canada” stuff. My name is Brian Lauer. I live in Kelowna, B.C. with my wife Donna and our 2 kids. I grew up in Saskatchewan, moved to B.C. in the early 70’s. After doing different jobs in the Alberta oil patch, and then in construction, I married Donna in 1991. A few years after getting married I was out of work for a few months and I decided to get into plumbing. It was pretty rough trying to make it on apprentice wages of only $9 bucks an hour back then – especially with a family to support. Once I got my Plumber’s ticket things were OK, but I always thought I could do better in life instead of just grinding it out 9 - 5. I was doing OK with my plumbing work. But at the end of the day I was always trading hours for dollars – and there always seemed to be more expenses than money in the bank. If I ever stopped working, the money stopped coming in. I had a $15,000 line of credit that I honestly thought I’d never pay off. Then in 2001 I saw an ad for one of these “Free Rich Dad” events. I had read “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” and I thought what the heck, maybe I should be a little more open minded – what can I lose at a ‘free’ seminar anyway? But in the back of my mind I was sure that they were going to try to get me all jazzed up and excited, and then try to sell me some $5,000.00 real estate course. I had told myself that I would only stay at the event until the “pitch” started, then I’d go home. What Donna and I discovered at Darren’s “How to Get Rich in Canada” seminar really shocked us. First of all, I was waiting the whole time for the “other shoe to fall” and wondering when I was going to get “pitched” the expensive Real Estate course. It never happened. The most expensive thing I could buy there was a book – and they weren’t hardly

mentioned. What was mentioned were rock solid ideas, tips and strategies that Darren himself has put to use in his own life to create millions of dollars in income and equity in his businesses, investments and Real Estate. The man doesn’t like the Big Banks or Financial Planning companies very much, and he showed us why not. He opened our eyes to a whole different way of thinking about money and wealth – and most importantly, he inspired us to take action and go for it! Within a week of attending that event we decided to make Real Estate investing our vehicle to wealth (but Real Estate is not the only subject covered at Darren’s events – he also goes in depth about Business and investing). Over the next couple of months we got cracking and started buying our first investment properties. Now, just a few short years later, we have over 29 ‘doors’ (rental units) in B.C. an Alberta and we are looking for another apartment building to buy with our investors. The positive cashflow from our properties is more than enough to replace my plumber’s wages. Now I work at plumbing because I want to, not because I have to. While others in my field are worried about the economy and impending work shortages – all I can see is opportunity! And I know that if anything ever happened to me, we would be just fine with our Real Estate. Not only that, but we learned how to buy them right and at the right price, and our Net Worth now officially makes us millionaires twice over! (Which is sweet revenge for all the snickers we got from friends and family when we first told them what we were up to). Now you might be asking yourself how such a thing could happen to a blue-collar guy like me. The answer is simple. It’s all about learning how real proven and effective wealth creation systems work. I’m not talking about the “late nite t.v.” crap that comes in from South of the border either. I’m talking about proven methods and strategies that work right here in Canada – our home and native land. In spite of everything you’ve heard about investing in Real Estate being ‘risky’ – or the failure rate of starting your own business – or how crappy investing can be (and it can be – if you do it the way the ‘establishment’ tells you to) you too can learn how to get rich sooner rather that later. So here is the raw truth about Darren Weeks: Unlike most of those ‘pretend’ experts out there, he actually teaches stuff that works. He not only teaches it – he does it! He walks his talk and has businesses, investments and lots of Real Estate. Just like me, you’ve seen his ads in this paper before. You’ve gotten postcards from him. Or maybe you’ve seen him on TV, or heard his ads on the radio. If you haven’t been to one of his “How to Get Rich in Canada” events yet, I don’t know why not!. Maybe you think you’re too smart and know it all, or that it is going to be a rip off, like I did. But if you’re so smart, why aren’t you rich and happy? Maybe you are doing well already – but you could do better (many of Darren’s students are ‘retired’ in their 30’s or 40’s). Maybe you just don’t want to be sold something that’ll be a waste of your hard-earned money. About that you can relax. At this event there’s nothing for sale that’s more expensive than a book – so leave your cheque book at home!

I’ve got over two million reasons why you ought to check out what Darren has to say. What reasons do you have NOT to look at this? There is an event coming to Surrey on Tuesday, October 5. This is a FREE event if you pre-register (otherwise it is $39.95 at the door) and registration is super easy. Either go on-line to www.SurreyFastTrack.ca or call the 24 hr. live operator to register by phone at 1-877-RICH CDN (1-877-742-4236). By the way, I wasn’t paid even a penny or given anything to write this about Darren Weeks. I am a regular Joe just like you. I did this as my way of saying thanks to Darren for everything he’s done for me and my family. And I’m not the only person who feels this way. Darren has spoken to over 200,000 Canadians at his events since he started in 2001. Many, just like me, are now making more money than they ever did before and are reaching their own financial dreams. My wife Donna just says “Wow!” about how much we have accomplished and how much more we are going to do and have. We continue to go to Darren’s events as often as we can, because we always learn something new, and meet great new people. All I can say is, “Don’t envy us. Join us” BRIAN LAUER, Kelowna, B.C. P.S. Please don’t get my number and call

Darren Weeks, Donna & Brian Lauer (after Brian’s make over!) me. The last thing I need is a zillion phone calls asking me about Darren Weeks. I’ve said what I have to say right here. What else could you possibly need to know? Go to his upcoming FREE Event and learn for yourself “How to Get Rich in Canada”. The event is in Surrey on Tuesday, October 5 and you can go either at 12 noon or 7 p.m. The event is FREE with online to pre-registration, so go www.SurreyFastTrack.ca or call 1-877-7424236 to register with a live operator 24/7.

Heavily armed members of the Delta Police Department’s Emergency Response Team approach a house near 76 Avenue and 116 Street Friday afternoon. Jarvis Elementary School had to be locked down after a man was spotted carrying a gun. It turned out to be an air gun. EVAN SEAL / THE LEADER

Black Press ONE MAN was arrested in North Delta following a

two-and-a-half hour standoff at a house near the Jarvis Traditional Elementary School at 76 Avenue and 116 Street Friday afternoon. Around 3 p.m. police ordered a lockdown of the school as a precaution after a report of a man with a gun was received. One eyewitness told Surrey radio station Red-FM that she saw a masked man pointing a weapon at cars on the street. Students and teachers were ordered by Delta Police to remain in the school gymnasium until further notice as a precautionary measure. Members of the Delta Police Department’s Emergency Response Team were called in and they cordoned off the street around one house. Around 5:30 p.m., one man surrendered. Delta Police Sgt. Sharlene Brooks said it appears the weapon was an airsoft gun. According to Wikipedia, airsoft replica handguns are similar in operation to BB guns, but because they use lightweight plastic projectiles instead of metallic BBs, their muzzle velocity is roughly half that of a BB gun. They look like real pistols and rifles and are usually used for outdoor war games. A 27-year-old Delta man is in custody. He faces possible charges of possession of a imitation weapon for a dangerous purpose and uttering threats.

Long sentence upheld in shooting case Drug dealer was given 10 years in jail for 2005 wounding at Whalley crack shack by Dan Ferguson THE B.C. Court of Appeal has

upheld a 10-year jail sentence imposed on a teenage drug dealer who shot a man inside a Whalley crack shack in 2005. The lawyer for Jaspal Thiara argued the B.C. Supreme Court jury who convicted his client in 2008 was not properly instructed about reasonable doubt before they began the closed-door discussions that saw Thiara convicted of three criminal charges. A three-judge panel of the Appeal Court dismissed the application Thursday in a written ruling that said â&#x20AC;&#x153;the trial court judge could have said more, but in the

circumstances the failure to do so was harmless.â&#x20AC;? On Dec. 29, 2005, the then-19year-old Thiara shot Craig Hall at least two times with a Glock pistol inside a house in the 9200 block of 134 Street around 4:12 a.m.. Hall, described in court as an addict who sold drugs for Thiara and others, was shot in the stomach, then in one leg as he tried to escape. He survived after emergency surgery and the removal of one kidney and part of his small intestine. At the time of the shooting, Hall owed Thiara and some associates money. Thiara had been in the drug trade since he was 17, earning

addicts... to the dealers such as Mr. Thiara and to innocent bystanders, such as Mr. Thiaraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family.â&#x20AC;? On the night of the shooting, Thiara, his girlfriend and two â&#x20AC;&#x153;business partnersâ&#x20AC;? arrived at the crack house. Thiara carried a handgun, concealed in his pocket. In a back bedroom of the house, Thiara shot Hall in the upper abdomen. He claimed Hall had been reaching for a weapon. When Hall tried to leave the house, Thiara shot him again. Hall collapsed at the front door and Thiara and his girlfriend left, stepping over the victim as they did.

preventing the unexpected… Many homeowners think about getting a full home inspection before purchasing a home. But what about before a major home renovation? It can pay to inspect before beginning any renovation. > P.6

After the home renovation is complete, the old furniture and interior décor may not really match the new look. This is when the professionals – home stagers and interior designers – can help homeowners maximize their newly renovated living space with stylish furniture and finishings that won’t necessarily cost a lot more money. ›› p.23

Rebuild: repairs only go so far Metro Vancouver renovator makes it as easy as possible for his clients MAGGIE CALLOWAY

The home is outdated, old and tired. The 1970s may seem like yesterday but it’s 35 to 40 years ago. Maybe the kids are gone and it’s time for the homeowners to rethink the way they use their

living space. The remnants from the ’70s can be embarrassing and even if the trend setters say revisiting the era is in, it is definitely time for a change. There is no question it’s a big decision to embark on a major renovation. When a house reaches around 35 years of age, there is a lot to change in order to bring the mechanics of the home up to date and more energy-efficient.

But when the homeowners love their neighbourhood and want to stay in a place where ‘everybody knows your name,’ then a renovation is definitely worth considering. The first job is to find a designer and contractor who take the time to fully understand the family’s dynamic, needs, and dreams. Homeown-

One definition of a kitchen describes it as simply, “a room or an area equipped for preparing and cooking food.” But it is so much more than that. Sure, the tempting smells that waft throughout the entire house after a cookie-baking session, or prior to a meal, are indicative that food preparation is indeed, important to this part of the home. But the kitchen is also – often – the heart of the home. It’s the warm, safe refuge where kids take their troubles to Mom. It’s where tweens and teens hang out after school or sports or shopping. It becomes the centre of every party and social event ever held in the home and, as all of these things, it is related to or part of countless memories as the family grows together. This could be why so many homeowners focus on the kitchen when planning home renovations.

Tom Bakker Design created a functional backyard space that looks fantastic at a South Surrey home. Bakker says it’s important for clients to have a good relationship with the people who are doing their renovation.

the renovation process. “Everything should be questioned. It is easy to just follow the trends but this is their home and every single item needs to work for this family,” says Bakker. “My job is to open the doors of creativity. It is then you get something very special.” Bakker refers to himself as a coach to his clients and describes the relationship as a team that feeds off each other. “You don’t need a designer telling you what to do,” he says. During the design phase, Bakker encourages clients to ‘open the floodgates of creativity’ and forget the budget in order to help visualize what the clients really want. “This is when you get interiors that put tears in people’s eyes,” says Bakker. “This is my biggest reward – when people are totally thrilled with the results, both interior and exterior.” Bakker has had a varied career; he has designed hotels, yachts, and commercial offices. This vast experience, plus his grounding in design and manufacture, make him unique and able to bring a different dimension to every project. Many of his clients are welltravelled and have been exposed to a vast variety of styles, and they want to incorporate some of what they’ve seen in their own home. “If they have stayed in a hotel room they loved, for instance, they want that same feeling in their own home. “Travel changes who people are and they want that reflected in their surroundings,” Bakker says.

home should fit the homeowners like a glove, which takes a lot of time and effort. “Every single time the parameters are so different. The challenge I always put on myself is that the finished home really needs to fit in the minutest detail,” Bakker says. “My conditioning, both in Holland and here, comes from jobs where I was exposed to clients who expected and demanded the very best in a very positive way.” Everyone embarking on such a major project should prepare in advance, not just the physical dislocation but the stress such a venture places on each member of the family. Communication is the key, and it’s important to fully understand the timeline of the renovation – delays are sometimes inevitable while waiting for materials, for example – but the end result is usually worth any headaches along the way.

Create a home you’ll love – after the renovation MAGGIE CALLOWAY The major renovation is finally over. The new design and finishes are spectacular but – and sometimes it’s a big ‘but’ – the furniture and finishings look a little awkward in the new space. So now what? To make the most of the new renovation, some homeowners call on the professionals – home staging companies that know what they’re doing. Granted, most people likely think of this before selling the home, but the sheer talent of the designers and their eye for first, using what the homeowners already has, eliminating the rest and making suggestions about what to buy, is invaluable. Ron Sowden, co-founder and CEO of Dekora, says when his company comes in after a reno, the concept is less about staging and more about interior design. “When we stage a home for resale, we don’t take into consideration the people presently living in the space BEFORE or how they use the home. We are focusing on the potential buyer; we are literally merchandizing the home,” Sowden says. “When we are consulting with a homeowner, the opposite is true. Who they are and how they live in the home is paramount.”

It pays to inspect before a reno MAGGIE CALLOWAY General common sense says it is wise to have a home inspection before any homeowner completes a home purchase. No one wants to be hit with major repairs, or worse yet, structural weaknesses, after they move into their dream property. When it comes to “There is renovations, no point homeowners spending might not really good money think about having a full home on a major inspection done renovation prior to embarking on a major without renovation. knowing the But perhaps state of the they should. When planfundamentals ning a major of the home renovabuilding.” tion, it is human nature to be drawn to the finishes, the flooring and the colour of the walls – but this is all for naught if the crack in the basement turns out to be a foundation failure and the whole structure is in jeopardy.

renovation decisions. This can eliminate crossing the fingers and hoping everything will be OK; homeowners can arm themselves with real information on which they can reliably make informed decisions about what they need and what they can afford. Glenn Duxbury of Glenn Duxbury and Associates, Building Inspection and Consulting, couldn’t agree more. “Most people think of home inspectors only when buying a house, but having an inspection before you begin even designing a renovation makes perfect sense,” Duxbury says. “There is no point spending good money on a major renovation without knowing the state of the fundamentals of the building.” Duxbury’s company often acts as a consultant throughout local renovations to ensure all sub-trades work is up to par. The average homeowner is likely out of his depth judging the soundness of a roof (until the rainy season) or the professionalism of the electrician or plumber, so Duxbury and his staff lend a hand. Of course, after the initial inspection, it helps if homeowners hire a certified renovator with a solid reputation, one who belongs to a reputable industry organization such as the Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association, or those who are RenoMark-certified. Duxbury recalls that one client who he worked for as an advocate during a major renovation called the whole renovation ‘boring’ because there were no disputes between anyone on site. This ability to diffuse sometimestense situations, which can occur during something as potentially stressful as a renovation, allows everyone to concentrate on what they do best and enables a smooth process from start to finish.

Quality is now available in space-saving design.” Planning a home renovation is a great time to incorporate a home gym and, just like all the other sub-trades and designers involved in the planning, bringing in a specialist to design the fitness area early in the process is a great idea. “Don’t think you need a huge space to have an effective, workable space,” says Manuel. “We just finished putting a gym in a yacht and it works just great. It just takes planning and that is where we come in. Each person has unique needs which need to be addressed so they stay motivated.” Manuel says Fitness Town staff also suggest hiring a personal trainer, once the home gym is built, to help get the best use out of all the equipment. Before they know it, homeowners may become addicted to physical fitness because it’s so easy to exercise at home. And that’s an addiction they won’t need to give up.

Hiring a reputable contractor for renovations can save homeowners time, stress and a lot of money.

Realize your dream with home design CONTINUED FROM PG.23

Dekora staff will spend time learning about the homeowners needs, likes and desires for the new space, he notes, then to realize that vision for them, or lead them to a way to make it realized, Sowden says. Another consideration is the budget. After spending a sizable amount on the actual renovation, facing another large expenditure on new furniture is not only daunting but sometimes, financially impossible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We fully understand the constraints of budget but we can help clients make a longterm plan,â&#x20AC;? Sowden says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Buying furniture ad-hoc, which can be an investment, can sometimes lead to very costly mistakes. We

can go into a newly renovated home, make a master plan of what to use and what to discard then come up with a step-by-step plan the homeowner can implement over months or years, as the budget becomes available. This way the home looks great right from the start and just improves as pieces are added.â&#x20AC;? This is a fantastic way to work toward a space that is personalized for the homeownersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; needs, especially if the family dynamic has changed, and what worked previously needs a new sophistication. And the end result? The homeowners have a beautiful space the entire family will enjoy for a lifetime.

As with any home renovation, no matter how large or small, the process starts with what the client wants; each reno differs depending on budget, space, varying tastes and based on the relationship between the homeowners work with their renovation team of contractors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to build a relationship with each client,â&#x20AC;? says kitchen designer Bruce Macdonald, who works with My House Design/Build Team alongside interior designer Linda Jones. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They have to feel comfortable with you.â&#x20AC;?

As with many renovations of older homes, Jones says the homeowners wanted to open up their old kitchen space to the rest of the living area, instead of having a small, tucked-away space. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We get asked to do that all the time,â&#x20AC;? says Jones of the open concept.

Extend your kitchen outside CONTINUED FROM P. 28

eral design requests are currently more in demand than others. Stainless steel appliances â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and in some cases, countertops â&#x20AC;&#x201C; still attract huge demand, but also, flat-panel and integrated appliances, which create a more seamless look between the cabinetry and the appliances. Granite countertops are very much chic, along with quartz, silestone and a huge variety of both natural and composite stone. Some homeowners prefer to go with a clean, sleek, European look, while others prefer a more traditional feel, or perhaps, a stylized/themed look (i.e. a French Country kitchen or a heritage-inspired kitchen); slab cabinetry and horizontal grain on the cupboards are chosen more and more by homeowners. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the trend is to a more transitional look â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not as contemporary as some, but not totally traditional, either,â&#x20AC;? Jones says. Wenge, teak and cherry are popular cabinet/stain colours right now, as well as opening up the kitchen to more than the homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interior, says Macdonald. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A big request is to extend the kitchen outdoors,â&#x20AC;? he notes, and adds that with todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s options related to heaters, barbecues and gas fire-

Devils At home in Port Moody hanging Surrey’s Mico Dragutinovic returns after year-long absence

achilles heel in hockey has been far more literal than he’d care to think about. While toiling on the Delta Ice Hawks, Dragutinovic had his back ankle tendon sliced apart by an opposing player’s skate in a seemingly harmless collision on his first shift during a Pacific International Junior B Hockey League (PIJHL) pre-season game versus the Grandview Steelers in August 2009. The 18-year-old Serbia-born forward – a first cousin of Milan Lucic of the NHL’s Boston Bruins – spent most of last season mending and rehabilitating the Goliath-like sports injury, before finally earning a tryout this summer with the Western Hockey League’s Vancouver Giants. After getting released, the Surrey resident was just looking for a place to play. Any place. So he approached the Port Moody Black Panthers, another PIJHL squad that fashioned a league-worst 11-36-1 record the previous season. Dragutinovic is friends with a handful of Black

epitomizes that position. He just has to fine tune everything, like a lot of young players.” Dragutinovic is currently working odd jobs, with the hope of going to trade school in the future to become perhaps an electrician or a plumber. First on his mind currently is hockey, with very realistic goals set for the future. “Whatever, maybe [I’ll play on] the Giants one day, or the [BCHL Coquitlam] Express,” Dragutinovic said. “My ultimate goal is to play [pro] somewhere in Europe, like Germany.” For now at least, Port Moody – home of the Black Panthers – and Dragutinovic seem the perfect fit.

has kept the North Delta Devils atop the Tom Shaw Conference of the Pacific International Junior Hockey League. The Devils dropped a 7-6 decision to the Ridge Meadows Flames Saturday night at the Sungod Arena, then traveled into the central Fraser Valley Sunday afternoon to hand the Mission Ice Breakers a 7-3 setback. At 5-2 (won-lost) on the season, North Delta leads the Richmond Sockeyes, Delta Ice Hawks and Grandview Steelers by one point in a tight four-way race for the the Tom Shaw Conference lead. The Devils could have stretched that lead with a win Saturday, but the Flames netted two unanswered goals in the final eight minutes of play for a come-from-behind win. North Delta trailed 2-1 after the first period, but were tied 4-4 after 40 minutes and twice took one-goal leads in the final frame. Michael Nardi paced the Devils offence with three goals, with Julius Ho netting two and adding a helper for a three-point night. Christian Rodriguez completed the scoring. Sunday in Mission, a 3-3 game was broken open with four Devils tallies in the final 11 minutes of play, three of which were scored on the powerplay. Marco Finnucci had the hat trick, scoring his trio of goals in North Delta’s late-game surge. He netted the winner nine minutes into the third period, added an insurance goal four minutes later, then completed the hat trick with 72 seconds to play. Nardi notched a pair of goals, bringing his season total to a league-best eight in seven games played. Cole Briggs and Taylan Kornelsen also had goals for the winners. Ho padded his points total with three assists. Alex Wind was in goal, turning aside 24 of 27 Mission shots, while the Devils fired 39 pucks at the Ice Breakers goal. The Devils are in Richmond tomorrow (Thursday) to face the 4-0-1 (won-loss-overtime loss), then host the Ice Breakers in a rematch Saturday at 6:45 p.m. at the Sungod Arena. Sunday, North Delta visits the Grandview Steelers in Burnaby.

“I was used to playing hockey since I was ﬁve...” Mico Dragutinovic

Panther players, including Dean Brunato, with whom he played minor hockey in Burnaby. Dragutinovic fit in on the goal-hungry Cats instantly. In the Black Panthers’ second game this season Sept. 11, the six-foot-three, 195-pound right wing whipped in two goals as the hosts shaved the Mission Icebreakers 4-3 at PoMo Arena. Scoring was “great,” Dragutinovic said. Just playing again felt even better. “[The injury] was pretty shocking, pretty depressing,” said Dragutinovic, who found solace in the words of Lucic, whom he sees often during the off-season, usually at family gatherings. “I was used to playing hockey since I was five and, all of a sudden, I wasn’t. I missed the whole process... the dressing room, playing, scoring.” Dragutinovic’s mom is sister to Lucic’s dad and hockey is often the hot topic of conversation at family functions. “We have barbecues together and our dads talk about hockey a lot but my mom, not so much,” laughed Dragutinovic, who moved to Canada with his family when he was three. “I always put my eggs in one basket before and [Milan] told me it’s all about having fun. You’ve got to have fun. I forgot that. So now I’m trying to have fun, joking around

He’s very determined with lots of compete in him.” Hay said he wouldn’t be surprised to see Dragutinovic dominate the Junior B ranks and, eventually, earn at least a shot at the Junior A level. “Our camp’s just winding up and, with his hip injury, we had to make some pretty quick decisions

on guys,” Hay said. “A lot of players develop later sometimes. I could see him doing very well for himself.” Right now, Black Panthers general manager Ron Luniw is elated to have Dragutinovic add some skill and size to his forward corps. “He’s going to be a pretty strong player in this league,” Luniw said. “He plays with a physical edge and has a bit of a mean streak in him. He’s one of those kids who’s 18 going on 25. Just his [physical] presence... if you didn’t know him, you’d think he was 22 or 23, easily.” Said Black Panthers head coach Ron Johnson: “He’s a tenacious player with a skill set that could get him to a higher level.

What kinds of organizations are eligible? Organizations will normally be expected to: • have an active governing body composed of volunteers, with paid staff excluded from voting membership; • have stable, ongoing financial support; and • extend their service to the general public in Surrey, not excluding anyone by reason of race, religion or ethnic background. Who chooses the successful grant applications? City Council has established a Grants Evaluation Committee, consisting of four city staff members, to review all applications and make recommendations on grant payment priorities. The final decision on all grant applications is made by City Council. The Grants Evaluation Committee will review and recommend grant payments based on the following criteria: • The need for the project, the number of residents benefiting from the grant and the value to the community; • The absence of identifiable or competing services, programs or facilities in the community; • The cost per resident, funding sources and financial stability of the organization; • The effectiveness and quality of the proposed program, project or event; • The history of the organization, including past services and programs; and • The suitability for one-time only funding for specific programs, capital projects or special events. Grants will not normally be recommended for travel, operating deficits, or services that are the responsibility of other levels of government. Any organization which receives a grant should not view the grant as an automatic source of funding in the following years. An evaluation of the use of the Surrey grant must be submitted at the end of the program, project or event. When is the deadline for grant applications: All grants requests must be submitted on an official application form and received at the office of the City Clerk not later than 4:30 p.m., September 30, 2010.

Eagles salvage a split with Express Junior A team loses in Coquitlam, gets a win in South Surrey

by Nick Greenizan

IT TOOK UNTIL the third weekend of the season, but the Surrey Eagles finally won a game in front of a home crowd. After opening the weekend with a 4-2 loss on the road to the Coquitlam Express Friday, the Surrey Eagles exacted a measure of revenge two days later, opening the offensive floodgates to win 7-3 at South Surrey Arena. Forwards Mike Krgovich – playing in his first games of the season – and Tyler Morley led the Eagles’ attack with one goal and two assists apiece, with Erik Cooper, Michael Stenerson, Brad McGowan, Jeff Vanderlugt and Brandon Morley adding singles. Defenceman Riley Sweeney chipped in with two assists. Brandon Morley – the 16-year-old

younger brother of the Eagles’ captain, Tyler – also had an assist to go with his goal, which was the first of his BCHL career. With a 5-3 record, the Eagles sit in second place in the B.C. Hockey League’s Coastal Conference, just two points shy of the Langley Chiefs. Surrey’s hot start has seen them go 4-1 on the road, but they were winless in two games at home before Sunday’s win. “It’s nice to get that first win in front of our fans, and show them what we’re capable of doing, especially offensively,” said Eagles coach Matt Erhart. The Eagles’ top-ranked power play was deadly again on the weekend, striking four times on nine attempts, to put them at 37.7 per cent with the man-advantage;

the team’s 23 power-play goals are more than double any other team in the BCHL. “It’s early, and we’re going to go through a

“...we really have the makings of a good powerplay here.” Matt Erhart rough patch at some point – all teams do – but I think we really have the makings of a good power play here,” Erhart said. “It was nice, too, to score some goals fiveon-five, too. The first weekend, we scored

almost every goal on the power play, and we had five (even-strength goals) Sunday.” On Friday, Coquitlam stymied the Eagles’ forwards, holding them to just a pair of goals – off the sticks of Vanderlugt and the league’s reigning player-of-the-week, Richard Vanderhoek. Former Eagle Jason Grecica – who was dealt to the Express in the off-season – opened the scoring 4:37 into the first period Friday, and Brad Reid made it 2-0 Coquitlam by the first intermission. Surrey scored both its goals in the middle stanza, but Coquitlam’s Alex Petan notched an unassisted marker in the third to put the home side ahead, and teammate Garrick Perry added an empty-netter with 1:11 left in the game to put it out of reach.

You can either be a victim of the New Economy or you can become RICH because of it. It’s up to you. Find out what the Government and the Big Banks don’t want you to know & what your accountant and your financial planner are not able to tell you...

“Alberta Man Goes From Dead-End $30K Year Job to MultiMillionaire by Age 35 Using Proven Rich Dad, Poor Dad Strategies. Now Teaches Thousands of British Columbians How to Get Rich in Canada (in The New Canadian Economy) at this Amazing FREE Event.”

Robert Kiyosaki with Darren Weeks Dear Financially Frustrated Friend: Are you tired of working your butt off and never getting ahead? Sick of sinking further into debt without any end in sight? Are you fed up with getting taxed to death while watching your tax dollars wasted? Do you see others getting wealthy through Real Estate, Business or Investing, and wonder how they do it? Had enough of those “late-nite TV” Americans ramming their “Get Rich in Real Estate/Tax Leins/Stocks/ Internet” JUNK down our throats (you know, all those tactics that “don’t quite work” here in Canada?). As the stock markets crash and the Big Banks get bailed out, do you wonder why you never seem to get ahead by “doing what you’re told” and investing in stocks, mutual funds, RRSP’s and GIC’s? If you answered “yes” to any of the above, then you will definitely want to do whatever it takes to be at my upcoming “How to Get Rich in Canada” event. But Why Should You Listen to Me? Good question – you should only take advice from people who are successful, and hopefully more so than you are. (In fact, after you ask them about their “net worth”, you might want to “fire” your financial planner and/or banker) My name is Darren Weeks, and I am proud to say that many of my students across the country call me the “Canadian Rich Dad”. Why? Because the monthly Passive Income (i.e. money I don’t have to work for) from my many businesses, real estate holdings and investing ventures is more than what most Canadians work hard for all year long. I’ve made money during good economies and I’ve also made money during bad economies. (In fact, huge fortunes have been made during the worst of economic times). Now don’t get me wrong... I don’t say this to brag. I am telling you this because I want you to know that I don’t just talk a good talk – I actually do what I will teach you to do. But I Haven’t Always Been So Successful... I am the first to admit it – I was a very poor student in high school and University (in fact it took me an extra year just to get through). And when I finally did graduate, my first job right out of the door was with the Alberta Government! I putzed around at a dead-end $30K a year job for far too long before I couldn’t stand it any more and I quit to start my own company. During the 90’s I built up a considerable Real Estate portfolio, and I kept going with different businesses and investment opportunities as well. In fact, by the time I read Robert Kiyosaki’s all time best selling book “Rich Dad, Poor Dad”, I was already doing very well financially. I was so impressed with Kiyosaki’s message, in 2001 I became a “Rich Dad Facilitator” to help spread the Rich Dad message to Canadians. And now, after all of these years, I am very pleased to have been able to show hundreds of thousands of Canadians across the country how to take control of their own finances, and to live life on their own terms. I have spurred dozens and dozens of

people to become multi-millionaires in 5 years or less. Now I do not take credit for their success – they took the action and actually did something – and I am just happy that I was able to inspire them in some way. “...(Darren’s) passion for helping others has been a great inspiration to me and I now truly understand about giving first with no expectations in return. Darren and his advisors/speakers have helped us in many other ways as well, too many to list.” KEN BEATON – OTTAWA, ON.

Darren Weeks, Canadian “Multi-Millionaire” (from Edmonton), is revealing the proven success strategies he learned personally from Robert Kiyosaki (Rich Dad, Poor Dad), and has perfected for our unique Canadian situation. Darren is offering an absolutely FREE event in Surrey on Tuesday, October 5 to show how you too can become financially independent and be able to do whatever you want...in 5 years or less (No matter what is happening in the economy). He’s also giving away an Amazing FREE gift to every attendee who brings a guest. His NEW audio CD “The 7 Keys to Creating Wealth in Canada” – a $39.95 value – Free of charge just for bringing a friend (your guest gets one too)!

Why Should You Come to My FREE “How to Get Rich in Canada” Event? This is an event you will want to attend in order to learn... ✔ How to Make BIG money in Canada’s emerging new economy. ✔ Why the wealth strategies of our parent’s generation don’t work anymore, and what really works now. ✔ The difference between the advice given to the Rich and the Middle Class. ✔ The fastest and most popular way to create millions of $$$. ✔ If “No-Money-Down” real estate inCanada is fact or fiction (the answer may surprise you). ✔ Why personal associations are critical to your financial freedom. ✔ How to “Recession-Proof” Yourself and your family. ✔ How the CASHFLOW quadrants explain the conspiracy by the BIG banks, mutual Co’s and government to keep Canadians poor and dependant. ...and so much more. In fact, many people come to my events time and time again because each one is always different, they want to have the messages re-inforced, and they like being around other positive, action-oriented people. The Government and the Big BANKS are Conspiring to Keep YOU Poor. Big Brother and the Big Banks want to keep you under their thumbs. But with the knowledge that I am going to share with you (and that your accountant/ financial planner will not, or are not able to tell you) you will learn what you need to do to become truly financially free. It is my mission to expose how the Big Banks and Financial companies always make money off average Canadians with their “Management Expense Ratios” and fees – even when their investors are losing their shirts by following their lousy advice. The game is stacked against the average investor – and is completely in their favor…unless you learn the strategies of the rich and “become the bank”. I’ll show you how at this FREE event. You Will Learn More in These 3 Hours Than Most Speakers will teach you in 3 days! I know that is a pretty steep claim, but it is absolutely TRUE. My teaching style is light-years ahead of the way you are used to learning in school. My sessions allow you to capture the information much faster and easier than at any seminar you have ever been to. “...I never thought that I could learn so much and gain so much during a free seminar. I would recommend this Fast Track event to anyone who wants to learn to be financially free”. EVA YE, VANCOUVER BC (WITH OVER $10M IN REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS). What Does Being Financially FREE Mean? It means you never have to: ✘ Work for somebody else. ✘ Limit your holidays to just 2 weeks a year. ✘ Order the cheapest items on the menu at a nice restaurant. ✘ Argue with your spouse about money. ✘ Get taken advantage of with stupid financial advice from broke “professional advisors”. ✘ Worry that you won’t have enough money at the end of the month. So How Long Will It Take You to Become Financially Free? I firmly believe that EVERYONE can become wealthy within 5 years or sooner of attending this life changing FREE event. This is very possible. Thousands of people who have attended this very same event are well on their way to financial freedom. They not only learned the secrets of the Rich, they realized that taking ACTION will ensure their

personal financial freedom – just like it will for you.

And Why is This Event FREE? By now you are probably a little skeptical. Perhaps you’ve been to other “free” events that promised you the world, gave you a little bit of information, and then did the old “bait-and –switch” on you. They probably tried to get you to buy some kind of super expensive Real Estate course (or other training). We do NOT do that at my events. We have some books and cashflow games available if you want them, and there is no pressure to purchase anything. Now putting on FREE events is very expensive, so to help defray the costs I have a very few, select sponsors. You get a fantastic education, I get to meet you and spread the Rich Dad message, and the sponsors get a few minutes to show you what they do. The best thing is... we all win! My goal with putting on these events is to start a relationship with you and get to know you a bit. Robert Kiyosaki taught me “Give first, and then you will get back.” It has worked very well for me. So leave your cheque book at home, bring a friend and just come out to the event with an open mind. Fair enough? How About if I Give You Even MORE? If I’m going to give away the farm, I might as well go even one step further...so, just for bringing a guest to this Free event, I want to give you another FREE gift... My “7 Keys to Creating Wealth in Canada” Audio CD (a $39.95 value). On this CD I show you exactly what I would do to

become Financially Free in less than 5 years, starting from a homeless shelter with my family, in a new city, with no money, no friends, no job and being $35K in credit card debt! My events fill up fast. This one is only a few days away, so take a moment now to pre-register while it is on your mind. See you at the top! Darren Weeks.

You must register immediately to attend my upcoming FREE “How to Get Rich in Canada” event. SURREY Tuesday, October 5 12:00 - 3:00 pm and 7:00 - 10:00 pm Sheraton Vancouver Guildford Hotel 15269 104th Ave. Here are 2 ways to do it:

SPECIAL

A little paint never hurt anyone!

“Then hopefully he’ll be ready for the playoffs,” McLaren said. Potkins’ favourite target Sunday was B.C. Lions’ draft pick Matt Chapdelaine, who caught five passes, albeit for only 29 yards total. Griffin Bullock had three receptions for 31 yards, while Downey and Everad Jackson each caught a pair of balls. The Rams managed just 44 yards rushing,

led by Jake Glass with 21 on seven carries. Chilliwack’s run game wasn’t much better – the Huskers managed just 55 yards against a tough Big Kahuna defence. Austin Kappell was the team’s top runner, with 34 yards and one score. “The guys played really well and limited Chilliwack’s opportunities,” McLaren said. “Anytime you can stop the run and force them

to throw the ball, and force them into some second- and third-andlongs, you’re going to be successful.” Just one week remains in the B.C. Football Conference regular season, with the Rams set to wrap up the 10-game schedule with another tilt – this time at home – against Chilliwack on Saturday at South Surrey Athletic Park. Should the Rams,

currently in third-place tie with the Victoria Rebels – both have 4-5 records – win to end the season, they’ll clinch third place regardless of whether or not the Rebels win their final game, a tough road tilt versus the 8-1 Okanagan Sun. The Rams won both regular-season contests against the Rebels this season, thus giving them the tie-breaker advantage.

Good year for a wine show D by Jennifer Lang

on’t have time or the means for an O Okanagan wine tour this fall? The Surrey Museum offers the n next best thing with Vineyards of B.C., a new exhibit that celebrates the province’s bustl bustling wine industry. From th the Fraser Valley to Sicamous and Saturna Is Island to the Similkameen, British Columbia is getting to look a lot like wine country, and a little wonder. Over the past 20 years, there’s the been an explosion of wineries, just 17 pioneers in 1990 to growing from f 180 in 20 2010. Neophy Neophytes and connoisseurs alike will find ssomething worthwhile on view, whether it it’s a new winery waiting to be discovered or learning an amazing fun fact. For insta instance, did you know the Vatican has the high highest per capita wine consumption in the world? wo An impressive 66-plus litres a year, cases ca ahead of countries such as Canada or the U.S., but only just ahead of Norfolk Norfo Island in the Pacific near New Zealand and Australia. Zealan All five wine regions of B.C. are inclu included, along with displays of various wine wines, including a selection of awardwinners from the Nk’Mip Winery, the winn first Aboriginal owned and operated wine winery in North America, and local favo favourite, Domaine de Chaberton in Lang Langley, the first winery in the Fraser Valley. Valle Al Also close to home is a selection from Vista d’Oro farm in south Lang Langley. Its flagship fortified wine is a walnu walnut port. To Touch-screen displays take some of the mystery m out of the terms associated wit with wine for those of us who can’t te tell a pinot noir from a zinfandel. Turns out “terroir” refers to a type of sandy soil of the Black Sage Bench near Oliver and a wine’s “vintage” corresponds with the harvest year, which isn’t necessarily when it’s released for sale. Just knowing the right terminology can be daunting for newbies. The touch-screen displays also provide insight on what those words used to describe a wine actually mean, such as “flabby” (a negative term referring to low acidity) or “flinty” (which is a fancy way of saying it tastes stony or metallic). Wine lovers, take note: The Surrey Museum is hosting some winerrelated events this month. An Evening of Wine Tastings is Wednesday, Oct. 13 from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. ($20), and writer and wine expert John Schreiner talks about viticu viticulture through the ages Saturday, Oct. 16 from 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. ($10). That’s followed by The Grape Escape, where you’ll learn how to tour wineries in the F Fraser Valley, Cowichan Valley, and the Okanag Okanagan by bike (by donation). donation You must register for th these sessions in advance.

Family friend comes to the rescue Kidney donor gives 20-year-old a new lease on life by Christine Lyon

had Nishimura has lived with kidney disease his whole life, but thanks to an altruistic family friend, the 20-year-old Surrey resident is getting the chance at a better future. Richmond’s Debbie Talbot was scheduled to undergo a six-hour operation at Vancouver General Hospital last Wednesday (Sept. 22). Doctors were expected to remove her left kidney and spend another six hours inserting the donated organ into Chad’s abdomen. Talbot will be left with one kidney and Chad will have three – although his original pair will eventually stop functioning. Chad was born with polycystic kidney disease. His mother Celia recalls when she first

found out. “When Chad was born he went back in the hospital when he was about a week old with jaundice,” Celia said. Doctors ran some tests which showed his electrolytes were imbalanced. Soon after, a nephrologist at B.C. Children’s Hospital diagnosed the newborn with the genetic kidney disorder. Both of Chad’s kidneys were covered in thousands of irremovable fluid-filled cysts. At birth, his kidneys were functioning at 86 per cent. “(Doctors) said that as early as three (years old) he could possibly have a transplant,” Celia said. But year after year, Chad progressed and was able to live a relatively normal childhood.

“It doesn’t really affect me a lot. I’m just a normal living kid, partying, having fun,” he said last week. But unlike most kids, Chad could never participate in contact sports like hockey because of the risk of rupturing a kidney. He has also been on medication his whole life to mitigate his condition and alleviate the high blood pressure that is symptomatic of the disease. Three years ago, doctors told the family they should start looking for a donor. Chad’s condition was deteriorating – he needed a new kidney, or would have to go on dialysis to filter his blood. A week before the operation, his kidney function was down to just 14 per cent. No one in Chad’s family proved to be an

ideal candidate. That’s when Talbot stepped in. “I said, ‘Well, I don’t mind getting tested,’ ” Talbot recalls. The Steveston Community Centre attendant is a universal donor and knew her O-negative blood type would be a match. Further blood work tested Talbot’s tissue type and antibodies. Celia cried when she learned Talbot was a match. “When (Chad) was born, they didn’t even originally do live donor transplants at that time, it was all just cadaver... you’d be waiting for someone to pass away before your child could get a kidney. That’s a horrible thought, really.” Now her son has a healthy, working kidney that once belonged to her friend of 30 years. “It’s kind of mindboggling actually just to imagine that. I mean, she’s giving him life,” Celia said. The new organ should bring Chad’s kidney function from 14 per cent to 80 per cent. Chad and Talbot will stay in the hospital for three or four days and the at-home recovery time ranges from four

After that, Talbot should feel normal and won’t lose any kidney function, though she’ll have to steer clear of contact sports – not a problem, she says. Chad will still be on medication the

rest of his life, but not for kidney disease or high blood pressure. Instead, he has to take anti-rejection drugs to ensure his immune system doesn’t fight off the new organ. He will eventually need another transplant

– in 25 years or so – but in the immediate future, doctors say he will have renewed energy. He’s pleased to hear that – snowboarding season is just around the corner.

Fish stocks coming to local lakes Rainbow trout will be catchable by the public

THE FRESHWATER Fisheries Society of BC

(FFSBC) has begun their fall stocking program and will be introducing thousands of rainbow trout to five Lower Mainland lakes for five days this week until Friday. Rice, Mill, Green Timbers, Como, and Lafarge Lakes, will each be stocked with th 750-1,500 “catchable” rainbow trout (averaging approximately 250 grams in size) from the FFSBC’s Fraser Valley Trout Hatchery in a move to jump-start fall fishing. The release is part of the FFSBC’s SBC’s ongoing Fishing in the City program to increase the number of people participating in sport fishing by creating urban fisheries in major population centers. “People can’t wait for these stockings,” says Fraser Valley Trout Hatchery Manager Steve

Arnold. “We probably receive 10-15 calls a day from people wondering when we are going to start the urban stocking program for the fall.” Fishing in the City strives to create easily accessible fishing opportunities in urban centers. Many of these locations have great shore or pier fishing and offer quality fishing opportunities for anglers of all skill levels. “Our goal is to provide all anglers access to high-quality, lowcost fishing close to home,” says Arnold. “There are some great fishing spots in prime city locations so anglers should get out and enjoy the local lakes this fall.” For more information on stocked lakes or Fishing in the City, call 604-504-4709 or visit www. gofishbc.com
