Efforts are underway to once again breathe new life into White Rock’s longstanding annual water-front festival.

Those rallying support for the next incarnation of the Spirit of the Sea Festival say while discussions are still in the early stages, anyone interested in getting involved is encouraged to step forward.

“There is interest in, specifically, trying to pull together a celebration next year, and it’s really in regards to the 65th anniversary,” said Brian Hagerman, a longtime White Rock resident who was involved in the festival about 25 years ago.

“The interest from myself and others is to see if there is a way to put together the society in a format that would really sort of celebrate that 65th anniversary, and get the full support of the city and the resi-dents for a summer event.”

Hagerman said a group of about 10 people has been meeting since mid-August – shortly after the last festival wrapped up – to explore the options, and they expect to have a new society established in the next three weeks.

Creating something sustainable will take time, money and people, he said.

Nick GreenizanStaff Reporter

The 2016 Women’s World Fastpitch Cham-pionships have been awarded to Surrey.

The announcement was made Friday at the conclusion of the International Softball Fed-eration’s congress in Cartegena, Colombia.

Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts and Coun. Tom Gill joined members of the Canadian

Open Fastpitch International Championship committee – headed up by Greg Timm – in Colombia, and the committee made the announcement on Twitter and via a flurry of text messages.

“We got it – I just got a text from Greg. The (ISF) called it ‘an exemplary bid.’ It’s pretty exciting, and I can tell all the guys down there are excited, too,” Chuck Westgard, a

member of the bid committee who did not make the trip south, told Peace Arch News.

“It’s the first-ever world championship for Surrey, so it’s big – it’s big for the city and for softball in B.C.”

In Colombia, the bid committee made a handful of presentations to the ISF congress throughout the week, and a final vote among the ISF’s more-than-130 members was held

Friday morning.“Developing our bid was 18 months of

work on behalf of the bid committee, and winning today is incredibly exciting,” Timm said in a news release sent Friday afternoon.

“This is the premier tournament in our sport, and bringing it home to Surrey and Canada is an incredibly proud moment.”

newsShooting fatality

Police have identified Satwant Singh Bains as Surrey’s 19th homicide victim.

The 35-year-old was found shot to death early Friday in his driveway.

The incident took place in a residential neighbourhood near 156 Street and 86 Avenue.

According to a news release, Bains said goodbye to his wife and children before heading to work. He walked out his door, entered his vehicle and moments later was shot to death.

Surrey RCMP and paramedics arrived to find his body in his vehicle.

The incident is being described as a targeted shooting, however, - Bains does not have a criminal record and was not known to police.

A neighbour told CTV he heard about three gunshots at approximately 5 a.m. and then heard a car leaving the scene.

The integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) is investigating.

Anyone with information is asked to call the IHIT tip line at 1-877-557-4448 or, to remain anonymous, Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.

Motorcycle crashOne of two people

seriously injured in a motorcycle crash in South Surrey Saturday was airlifted to hospital with two

broken limbs.Police say a 52-year-old

New Westminster man broke his leg and arm in the single-vehicle incident, which occurred just before 8 p.m. at 160 Street and Croydon Avenue when a southbound Harley Davidson collided with a “steel-pipe drainage structure.”

The passenger, a 42-year-old White Rock woman, was transported to Surrey Memorial Hospital with a broken arm and neck vertebrae.

The air ambulance landed at nearby Southridge School to take the driver to Royal Columbian Hospital.

An RCMP supervisor on the scene said the injuries were not life-threatening.

Investigation is ongoing, however, alcohol is believed to have been a contributing factor.

Man slashedA Whalley man is nursing

slash wounds after finding

an intruder in his carport last week.

At 2:25 a.m. Thursday, police were called to a home in the 9800-block of 138 Street. They arrived to find a 47-year-old resident of the home suffering from cuts from a sharp object.

The victim had heard some noise coming from his carport, which he initially

thought was being made by animals. When he went out to investigate, he confronted a man who he believed was

trying to steal things.An altercation ensued,

and the resident was slashed. Both wounds were superficial and were treated by paramedics.

The suspect is described as a Caucasian male, 35-45 years old, about six-foot, with a medium build, shaved head, and wearing a camouflage-style jacket. 

Police are asking that anyone who witnessed this incident to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502.

newsWhite Rock approached by First Nation investors, Baldwin says

Mayor wary of satellite-reserve proposal

Brown testifies he ‘came to’ covered in blood

Accused says he was victim in violent attack

Alex BrowneStaff Reporter

White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin said approaches received by the city from potential First Nations investors indicate any commu-nity might feel the impact of a proposed fed-eral policy change allowing satellite aboriginal reserves.

He said that – while not at liberty to dis-cuss specific proposals received by White Rock – he is concerned the proposed satel-lite reserve policy would prove divisive.

Baldwin was among members of Metro Vancouver’s board voting last week to lodge objections to Ottawa’s proposal to revise its additions-to-reserve policy.

Critics say the changes would let aboriginal

groups buy property in any city and then convert it to reserve land, which is exempt from local zoning and other municipal rules.

In the past, new land given reserve status generally had to adjoin existing reserves. That restriction would be lifted under the policy proposed, and bands would get more scope to use it for economic development.

Baldwin suggested that, under the policy change, a First Nation that bought Pacific Centre mall in downtown Vancouver, and gained reserve status for it, would suddenly control an “ultra-competitive” special taxa-tion zone where merchants’ costs might be much lower, creating uncertainty for nearby properties and businesses.

“No one has talked about the issue of taxa-

tion,” he added. “If you get reserve status I expect you would have the attendant taxation relief.

“That could be quite significant – it does create a potential problem. If merchants within that area can reduce their prices it may cause some difficulties for other competitors who are not within the same block.”

Baldwin said he sees no problem with First Nations establishing satel-lite areas as private-property owners.

“For a First Nation looking for an economic opportunity it’s a great way to do it. This doesn’t mean they couldn’t go some-where else – particularly if a reservation is disadvantaged in terms of location – but the

rules should be the same as they are for everybody else.

“To be able to expand and apply a separate set of rules doesn’t seem right to me,” he said

Delta Mayor Lois Jackson also sup-ported the Metro Vancouver motion, saying the change in federal policy could create a situation in which a band from northern B.C. could buy up a city block in downtown Vancouver, convert it to reserve and confound normal urban planning.

“The complications surrounding the issue are immense,” she told the board. “We have to be very cautious and very guarded.”

Tracy HolmesStaff Reporter

A man accused of brutally assaulting a White Rock business-man with a hammer and a pipe wrench testified Friday that he was the one who was attacked dur-ing the incident at a South Surrey property four years ago.

Taking the stand at B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster, Darryl Gordon Brown also told Justice R. Crawford that he remembers next to nothing of what transpired after Fred Edrissi hit him in the arm with a grinder and on the head with a pipe wrench – other than seeing “stars,” and wrestling with Edrissi on the ground.

“I don’t remember anything after that. I came to at a Washworld in Surrey, covered in blood and vomit,” Brown said.

Brown, 47, has pleaded not guilty to aggravated assault, assault with a weapon and robbery in connec-

tion with the Aug. 1, 2009 incident, which occurred on property in the 16500-block of 32 Avenue. He was ordered in December 2010 to stand trial on the charges, follow-ing a preliminary hearing in Surrey Provincial Court.

The trial got underway in Sep-tember 2012. At that time, Edrissi testified that a “broken hand, broken knee, broken skull, bro-ken ribs” were among injuries he suffered in the attack, which, he said, occurred while waiting for mechanical work to be done on his minivan. Edrissi told the court that Brown hit him several times in the head with a hammer or pipe wrench and had tried to strangle him with a grinder cord.

The court also heard last year from Sheri-Lyn Brown, who was married to the accused at the time of the incident. She testified she witnessed much of what transpired between Edrissi and her husband, and that she believed at the time that her husband had killed Edrissi.

On Friday, prosecutor Jas Gahu-nia suggested to Darryl Brown that he, out of anger, struck Edrissi from behind with a hammer and a pipe wrench – a scenario he

denied.“There’s no way that I went up

and hit him,” he said.Brown, a mechanic, said the inci-

dent occurred on the last of five visits Edrissi made to the property that day regarding work he wanted done on his van. On the earlier visits, discussion had covered the cost of the work, parts that needed to be picked up and a request from Brown for Edrissi to return later, as he was spending some rare alone time with his wife, he said.

Brown said that immediately prior to Edrissi hitting him, Edrissi was “ranting” about having already paid for the work. Brown said Edrissi didn’t understand that he had paid for the parts needed but not the labour.

“He wouldn’t listen that he had not paid me,” he said. “He said ‘bullsh-t’ about 20 times.”

Brown said Edrissi swung the tools at him when he reached

around Edrissi to grab the keys to the minivan, which were needed in order for him to do the requested work. Brown said he told Edrissi at that time that he’d return the keys once he’d been paid the $50 he was owed for the labour, but that he never intended to actually with-hold the keys.

“It was just something to say,” he said.

Brown said Edrissi swung first with the grinder, then with the pipe wrench, hitting him in the left forearm and on the right side of his head, near the hairline.

“I could see stars floating around, then tunnel vision, then that’s it.”

Brown said he never attended a hospital for his injuries, didn’t report the incident to police and never returned to the property where it occurred.

Gahunia and defence counsel Jeremy Fung are to make closing arguments on Friday.

Artists celebratedThe first annual International Artist Day Festival gala at White Rock Community Centre brought out some 120 ticket holders Friday to view works by master artists and anonymously displayed 12-by-12-inch pieces by locally known artists. Art lovers competed enthusiastically for the smaller pieces, while Vancouver rock-and-roll artist Dave Benning (left) completed details to a portrait of actor Seth Rogen, and White Rock-raised Richard Tetrault (above left) discussed painting approaches with El Salvador-born Jose Ventura.

the logistics of recover-ing subjects is the hardest part,” Cromer said in a news release.

“This last crash was in a very remote area and required specialized skills to perform a safe recov-ery.

“Small aircraft made of aluminum often shred on impact and we are faced with a pile of razor blades to work around,” he added. “Not accounting for the tree hazards and fuel/explosion issues…recoveries from aircraft are one of the most dan-gerous things we do.”

Two volunteers cut away the trees and branch limbs while another pair – a machinist and mill-wright by trade – were able to determine what parts of the plane to cut off in order to safely access the cabin.

Investigation into the crash is ongoing.

“No one likes to get the call that we are on the way to recover a deceased subject, but we all do it knowing that those peo-ple deserve an opportu-nity to be brought back so loved ones can find some closure,” Cromer said.

The B.C. Coroner’s Service was expected to release further informa-tion Monday afternoon, after PAN’s press dead-line.

The latter two were key chal-lenges faced this year, in par-ticular, by those involved with the Community of Lights Events Society. That volunteer group formed in the late 1990s to rein-carnate the festival after the pre-vious organizing group dissolved in the wake of fraud charges against its former president.

Hagerman said overcoming the negativity that still exists from all those years ago was a hurdle for the Community of Lights Events Society, and remains a hurdle going forward.

“If it had run without incident for the last 25 years, I think that it almost wouldn’t be a story that some people are thinking that they would like to get involved,” he said.

The “door is open” for Com-munity of Lights Events Society volunteers to join in the new group, Hagerman added, noting the aim is to build on elements that worked and learn from those that didn’t.

Invitations have also been extended to existing groups such as swim clubs and Rotary groups to take ownership of specific

elements of the festival, so that everything doesn’t fall on the laps of one small group of organizers.

The City of White Rock’s involvement would be integral, Hagerman said.

Anyone wanting to get involved may contact Hagerman at 604-536-5634.

The next meeting is being planned for late November.

The world championships are set to take place in July 2016 and will likely coincide with Surrey’s Fusion Festival, according to the news release.

For one year, the tournament will replace the Canadian Open, which is played each summer in

South Surrey and Cloverdale.The world championships have

been held in Canada just twice before – in 1994 in St. John’s, Nfld. and in 2012 in Whitehorse.

Westgard expected the process of organizing such a large event to be a grueling one. He said he and other supporters were able

to take a celebratory breather Friday.

“It was a lot of hard work to put this together, and this was only the first part of it. We’ve got three years to go, and it’ll go by fast, but we’ve got Greg at the helm, so it’s lot of work, but we know we’ll be fine,” Westgard told PAN.

Attempts to book former U.S. Secretary of State unsuccessful

Speaker search delays summitKevin DiakiwBlack Press

The Surrey Regional Eco-nomic Summit (SRES) has been delayed for a few months because the city couldn’t find the keynote speaker it wanted for the event.

The city had been wooing former U.S. Secretary of State Hilary Clinton, but at the last

minute, that plan didn’t work out.

The SRES has now been pushed forward to February 2014, and Coun. Linda Hep-ner says another speaker has nearly been secured for the event.

Previous speakers have included former U.S. presi-dents Bill Clinton and George

Bush, former British prime minister Tony Blair, billionaire Richard Branson and former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani.

“We were looking for a speaker as significant as we have had before,” Hepner said Thursday.

She said she couldn’t confirm who the city was courting for

the February event, but noted Surrey had been criticized before for being too close to the U.S., so the speaker will be coming from elsewhere.

“There will be a more inter-national flavour to it,” Hepner said.

She said the city will announce who the speaker is in about three to four weeks.

2010 WINNER

Our municipalities and province likely won’t be using Internet voting to help determine election results anytime soon.

But that doesn’t mean we won’t eventually be using such a method to cast our ballots in future.

An independent panel tasked by Elections B.C. to study Internet voting recommended this week that any such system not be implemented in time for the upcoming municipal election, nor the next B.C. vote. But it did suggest that a technical committee be struck to look into the matter further and that the legislature should support jurisdictions that wish to pursue the option in future.

The preliminary report released in mid-October offered less than lukewarm support for the idea. It confirmed that making voting easier for people in this way – those who are incapacitated, can’t work a trip to their local polling station into their schedule, or are too lazy to do so come to mind – has not been shown in other jurisdictions to significantly increase voter turnout.

As for the large group of people who feel their vote doesn’t matter, or don’t care enough to vote in the first place, they present another challenge altogether, one likely not solvable with online voting.

Increasing voter turnout at any level still comes down to individuals and parties doing the legwork and convincing non-voters of the importance of getting engaged in their communities, and potentially making a difference through casting their ballot.

That said, the world is fast becoming an all-digital environment, where computers and cellphones can be used for virtually any transaction.

While the report states the current system of voting is trusted by those who vote, that factor will become less meaningful as time goes on and generations that have grown up with technology become our communities’ core voters.

We may not have the most efficient or system-improving Internet voting experiences to draw from yet, but now is the best time to begin investigating this option, to be ready for when it is the best alternative.

Online voting only a matter of time

With the B.C. and federal governments once again struggling to climb out of

deep operating deficits, it’s a good time for the release of Mark Milke’s book Tax Me, I’m Canadian.

An update of the same title published 12 years ago, the book retains the history of taxes in Canada, detailing how Canada’s tax system was initially built to mimic the United States’ system in the late 19th century.

Beyond the history, it is mostly new material. Included are chapters on the global meltdown of 2009, the surge of pension liabilities as the baby boomers retire and the flawed logic behind the “Occupy” and “Idle No More” protests.

Some readers will immediately note that Milke works for the Fraser Institute and was previously B.C. director of the Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation. But the book is not just an argument for cutting taxes. It also dismantles persistent myths that income taxes are illegal, and launches a broadside on what Milke calls “Canada’s corporate welfare carnival.”

Many people will be able to identify some top names in the government subsidy game: Bombardier, General

Motors, even poor old Rolls Royce Canada. Some will also be well aware that our supposedly tight-fisted Conservative

federal government has continued to pour out “regional development” and other funds to every part of the country.

But I did not know that Industry Canada grants were handed out to pizza parlours (including the remote pizza-starved village of Kamloops), or to help open gas stations or convenience stores in Kelowna, Vernon and Chilliwack.

Milke makes a useful point for B.C. about royalty rates for timber, natural gas and other resources. They are resource

rents, and if they are too high, the tenants will move out. Reducing them isn’t a subsidy, especially if it leads to big revenue gains as B.C.’s unconventional shale gas incentives have done.

On the Occupy movement: The infamous “one per cent,” who in Canada earn $250,000 a year or more, earned 10 per cent of all income and paid 20 per cent of all taxes in 2010. The bottom 73 per cent of tax filers paid just 17 per cent of all taxes. About a third paid no tax at all.

On Idle No More: When Attawapiskat Chief Teresa Spence played to the Ottawa

media with her soup strike, former Liberal leader Bob Rae suggested a nearby diamond mine should share more revenue.

Milke omits the substantial support and employment that mine provides, and glosses over the misguided blockades that disrupted that and other job-creating enterprises. But he does detail the disastrous effects of passive resource wealth bestowed on impoverished aboriginal communities, and contrasts it with success stories of reserves that build their own enterprises through hard work.

On public-sector pensions: Milke notes that historically, public employees traded higher wages for better benefits and job security. Now their wages are generally higher, and taxpayers have to cover their personal pension contributions (as a portion of those wages) as well as the employer contributions, plus the “defined benefit” payout, which has to be subsidized far beyond what the pension fund can support.

On the debt-financed welfare state, there are memorable observations, like this one: “For the record, the generous Quebec welfare state and its ostensibly more progressive model are paid for in part with the taxes of other Canadians; Quebec is merely the North American equivalent of Greece.”

The recent B.C. political crisis over adoption of the harmonized sales tax showed that there is too much emotion and too little knowledge about how taxes work. This book is a step towards addressing that.

BrightersolutionEditor:Re: Tour of White Rock’s track, Oct. 15.

I read with interest that the City of White Rock and BNSF officials are now looking to identify options for improving pedestrian safety along White Rock’s waterfront rail line.

Not only should it be safe for locals, but also for visitors who may not be aware of the train tracks.

At most places, the trains’ rail line is guarded by black guardrails along the promenade. In the daylight, it’s obvious that train rails exists on the other side of the guardrail and that they – the guardrails – offer some warning to not enter the track area. In addition to the guardrails, there are also signs indicating it is unsafe and against the law to enter.

But in the evenings and at night, the black guardrails are harder to distinguish from the track area.

In some dimly lit areas, not only are the warning signs difficult to see, so are the guardrails themselves because of their lack of color. Their blackness give the impression that whatever is on the other side mustn’t be dangerous.

If the purpose of this guardrail is to keep persons from crossing into the train track area, it should be visible all the time; not just the day.

The promenade should be safe for evening and night visitors from other areas who may not know about the train tracks. Tony Roy, White Rock

Infrastructurenot in placeEditor:Re: Arts centre eyed, Oct. 15; Residents target towers, Oct. 17.

Did anyone think about what traffic this will bring to the already overloaded streets?

As much as I would love to have a centre for the arts etc., we do not have the infrastructure for this kind of development.

Can the hospital cope with possible patients from two more highrises?

I live close to 20 Avenue and l54 Street and we have seen a huge increase of traffic with the new construction in that area alone.J. Koloska, Surrey

Tunnel stillhas potentialEditor:Re: Bridge vote sought, Sept. 26.

I grew up in the Detroit/Windsor area where there is a bridge and tunnel connecting the cities.

I fail to see why both cannot be used in this area.

It would be a pity to tear out the tunnel for a new bridge, when it is still potentially useful.Eleanor Peddle, Surrey

Rail movementlong discussedEditor:

In light of the most recent train derailment in Gainford, Alta., on Oct. 19 – is this the fourth since this summer in Canada? – and the horrendous situation with oil products burning out of control, I think it is only fitting that we quickly readjust our thinking and aim for the fastest possible relocation for the tracks that pass through our highly populated areas of White Rock and South Surrey.

No one wants the guilt associated with the tragedy of Lac-Mégantic visited upon us here in B.C.

This is not a new idea. Many people have been working on and discussing this very critical safety

situation for many, many years. There are maps and detailed studies with various solutions.

Please restart the government movement to make this once jewel of Canada again a place where one and all can walk on the beaches and feel the wonder and the safety of what it means to live in Canada. Susan Potzold, White Rock

Take stepsto stop trafficEditor:Re: Crossings to get traffic lights, Oct. 17.

I read that there are more crosswalk lights coming to 148 Street to ensure safer crossing for the students.

Two things came to mind:

1) Please do not install any more lights like the one that is now at the corner of 148 Street and 17 Avenue.

I don’t know who is responsible for the design of this type of pedestrian crosswalk, but as a pedestrian, I can assure you that I never feel very safe using it, as I have no idea if the cars are going to stop or not because I can’t see if the lights have been activated.

2) If it is necessary that two more lights be installed to ensure the safety of the students, perhaps some education about safety should be re-introduced at the schools first.

Perhaps a strong reminder that no matter your age, it is very important to look first before crossing any street, and not just stepping out there and expecting that because you are a student, all drivers will stop every 30 seconds to accommodate you.C.J. Mitton, White Rock

questions?

What are you going to do when they fi nally fi nd something that

you enjoy in their crosshairs?

Michael J. Klaver

Submissions will be edited for clarity, brevity, legality

and taste.

David De Lossy photoHunters respond to a letter writer who questioned what he should tell his grandson when they hear their gunfire.

Editor:Re: Different blasts for the birds, Oct. 22 letters.

I tire of the pervasive attitude than has crept quite deep into society the past few years – the one that moved people to try to get another’s hobby, pastime or activity banned if it is not in their own taste, style or desire.

Letter-writer Brian Lauder writes about how he is to explain to his grandchildren what is going on when they hear shotguns in the distance.

Let me help him: “Well grandson/granddaughter, what is happening is what has been going on here for many generations – hunting of waterfowl. In fact, it has been going on here since the 1800s and perhaps longer, much longer than I have lived here, and it will go on long after I am gone. It is a proud Canadian tradition that is passed down from generation to generation. In fact, there might be a grandfather down there teaching his grandson or granddaughter this tradition.”

We live on the Great Pacific Flyway, where the waterfowl population is extremely healthy and robust, numbering in the tens of millions, with far less than one per cent being taken by hunters. Communities that do not allow hunting are now overrun by Canada geese, destroying park land and making fields unusable.

Ethical hunting is a safe and legitimate pastime for over a million Canadians and has been a part of the fabric of Canada since there was a Canada.

An ethical hunter is a conservationist, with the largest group that protects bird habitat being Ducks Unlimited – which set aside the bird preserve in Serpentine Fen, was established by waterfowl hunters, and its paying members are hunters, primarily.

I expect that if the letter writer objects to the

“slaughtering” of “defenceless birds,” he is a vegetarian, not even wearing leather shoes, gloves or jackets.

The birds that die and wind up on my dinner table are hunted ethically, are killed quickly and have lived a free-range life, which is far more that can be said for any meat that objectors buy in the supermarket.

In fact, the Vancouver Sun reported last hunting season that the largest group of new hunters are vegetarians who stopped eating meat for ethical reasons, but now turn to hunting as the animals they hunt and eat have lived a free life and are ethically killed.

Which brings me to my last point – if people in society keep trying to get activities banned that they find mildly annoying, if they try to get activities banned that they find a little distasteful, even though they cause them no harm, what are you going to do when they finally find something that you enjoy in their crosshairs?

You live your life, and I will live mine.Michael J. Klaver, White Rock

Yes it is that time of year. When Canadians and New Canadians take part in our proud Canadian heritage and go hunting. I love wildlife and support their conservation, and – if not for hunters and sportsmen alike – there would be a lot less wildlife.

As for my grandchildren, they see that an animal is harvested and utilized, a part of Canadian life. Maybe you should show your grandchildren where their chicken, beef and pork come from.

More of the natural bird species are killed by the common house cat than licensed hunters every year. Do you own a cat?Lance Ponych, Surrey

Building a new bridge to replace the George Massey Tunnel is crit-ical to reducing congestion on the Highway 99 corridor, Delta Mayor Lois Jackson argued Friday before a skeptical Metro Vancou-ver board.

But she failed to derail a board motion that passed demanding the province prove how the mega-project will respect the regional growth strategy and other regional objectives, like improv-ing air quality and access to public transit.

Jackson called the premier’s September announcement a new bridge will be built “long, long overdue” and insisted the corri-dor is congested because of truck traffic that can’t be put on transit lines.

She said congestion has also worsened due to increasing traffic from the U.S., South Surrey/White Rock, the Tsaw-wassen ferry terminal and said more will come when the Tsawwassen First Nation opens a planned major destina-tion shopping mall.

Jackson rejected argu-ments a new bridge may spur more traffic and pollution.

“When you’ve got four miles of traffic sitting there puffing for hours on end I don’t think that’s a good air quality situation,” she said, referring to long lines to get through the tunnel in each direc-tion at peak times.

Jackson argued Metro planners failed to understand the justifica-tion for the project and wanted the issue referred back to staff to consider studies prepared by Delta.

Richmond Coun. Harold Steves

said a second tube for transit could easily be dropped in the Fraser River beside the existing tunnel to carry light rail transit from Richmond to Surrey and White Rock.

He predicted a rapid transit alternative along Highway 99 will

be stalled for a decade or more under the prov-ince’s plan.

“If you put in a toll bridge for cars they’re not going to want public transit on it until they pay for the bridge.”

Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan said the region will never build its way out of congestion by add-ing more lanes of road.

“It sells well in the sub-urbs, but the problem is you can’t bring more cars into Vancouver.”

He said the strategy of trying to carry still more traffic into a plugged urban core also runs counter to the regional aim of placing new destination ameni-ties South of the Fraser to shift the focus away from downtown Vancouver.

The Metro board motion also directs staff to investigate the business plan for the new bridge, the role of the port in the decision and the effects of other Gate-

way Program infrastructure, like South Fraser Perimeter Road, which will soon be fully opened.

Metro directors also called on the TransLink board to give its analysis of the ramifications of expanding the crossing, with an examination of both tolled and non-tolled scenarios.

Vancouver Coun. Heather Deal, chair of Metro’s environment and parks committee, said there’s also concern about impacts to Deas Island Regional Park, which would be in the shadow of the new bridge.

She said shoreline habitat will be threatened if the channel is dredged to open increased ship-ping up the Fraser towards Surrey.

Deal said it appears that would enable a proposed coal export terminal at Fraser Surrey Docks that Metro has already opposed.

Metro’s board also voted to have staff more closely study a pro-posal from the Port Alberni Port Authority to develop a container port there and send barges up the Fraser River.

Jackson doubted the concept would work but other directors see it as offering potential to get more trucks off the region’s roads and move freight on the river without the need for a new bridge or removal of the tunnel.

The province is poised to start awarding con-tracts for work related to replacing the George Massey Tun-nel with a new bridge.

Four requests for proposals were issued this month for tech-nical-advisory services for planning, pro-curement and implementation phases of the promised mega-project.

Transportation Minis-ter Todd Stone said the consultants who will be hired to provide engi-neering, environmental, community relations and other technical advice will help the province decide the scope of the project.

“Is the project just a bridge or is it a bridge and approaches on either side?” Stone asked.

“Once we’re able to really tightly define the scope, we’ll be able to

hammer down the bud-get and then of course decide what funding model we’ll use to actu-ally pay for the project.”

Asked if an eventual decision to toll the new bridge might not affect its use and should therefore be considered in the design stage, Stone said no.

“Before you get into a discussion on funding you have to first

determine what you’re building. This could be a $1 billion project. This could be a $3 billion project, depending on the extent of work in addition to the bridge itself.”

The Sept. 20 bridge announcement was accompanied by graph-ics depicting a 10-lane span and the premier said it could cost up to $3 billion.

Stone said funding for the Massey bridge project won’t be part of

the future referendum on TransLink funding options because the Highway 99 crossing is a provincial responsibil-ity.

The terms of the con-tracts run until 2022 and the requests for proposals closed Oct. 24.

The advisory-services contractors are separate from the eventual later choice of a construc-tion team to design and build the new bridge, as well as potentially finance and operate it as a broader public-private partnership.

Stone said he also plans a “refresh” of the Provincial Transit Plan in the new year.

Stone said there are demands for improved transit province-wide – not just in the Lower Mainland – that cities can’t always fund them-selves.

He also acknowledged the challenges of dif-ferent bridges in Metro being controlled by TransLink and the prov-ince, while tolling some of them but not all has raised questions about potentially reforming the province’s tolling policy.

“I think a discussion at a higher level about the need to ensure our transportation and tran-sit system is truly inte-grated is a discussion we need to have.”

Surrey Six trial hears from pathologist

Lawcourt barriers erectedSheila ReynoldsBlack Press

The media will no longer be able to take photos of people entering the Surrey Six trial in Vancouver.

Barriers were erected last Tuesday, blocking the sightline between the exterior doors and the high-security courtroom entrance at B.C. Supreme Court.

By law, cameras are not allowed in courthouses, but the press often takes photos through the windows.

The exit from the courtroom, where the mass-murder case is expected to be heard for the next year or so, was not barricaded, so the media will still be able to see people leaving. However, for security reasons, at least one wit-ness has been allowed to exit the courtroom by way of an interior elevator.

The court heard Tuesday that Surrey’s Chris Mohan, one of two innocent bystanders in a

mass, gang-related shooting six years ago, suffered two gunshot wounds the day he was killed.

Pathologist Dr. John Charles-worth performed autopsies Oct. 22 and 23, 2007 on murder vic-tims Mohan, Ed Schellenberg, Edward Narong, Ryan Bartolo-meo and brothers Corey and Michael Lal, who were killed Oct. 19, 2007.

Three men – Michael Le, Cody Haevischer and Matthew John-ston – are currently on trial and have pleaded not guilty to first-

degree murder and conspiracy charges in connection with the deaths.

During his testimony, Charles-worth referred to photos, which were not displayed in the public court gallery.

He said Mohan, 22, had bullet wounds below his ear and in his neck. While the one below the ear missed the spinal column, Charlesworth said, the other in the neck went through the spinal cord, paralyzing Mohan imme-diately. The doctor testified it was uncertain which of the two injuries was sustained first.

Eileen Mohan, Chris’s mother, was in court Tuesday listening to the autopsy details, but left half-way through the day.

Schellenberg, 55 – the second innocent bystander –  was shot in the back of the head twice, Charlesworth testified earlier in the day. Either bullet would have killed him instantly, he said.

The trial continues.

perspectives…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Sarah MassahStaff Reporter

It came as no surprise to White Rock resident Craig Thomas that there are big plans for Fergus Watershed Park.

After discovering the South Surrey green space near 168 Street and 14 Avenue while walking with his wife Carolyn, the self-taught photographer and artist noted it was teeming with potential.

“It was the first time (I had been), and it looks like such a wonderful area with potential for multi-uses,” he said. “With all that pasture, I was thinking what

a great place to have a multi-use area, like a bicycle track, picnic grounds and this wooded boundary, a place to walk the dog.”

Earlier this month, the City of Surrey hosted an open house for the park, asking for the public to submit their ideas to help form a concept plan for 67-acre space.

The park, acquired by the city in 2009 in order to protect habitat in the eco-sensitive area, will undergo a revitalization as per a master plan being worked on by city staffers, which will recommend potential recreational

uses and improvement to existing ecological resources in the park.

The first public session in the master planning process kicked off in June with “the visioning stage,” followed by a review of three different plan options at the Oct. 23 session.

Some suggestions for the park included creating habitats, removing invasive species and reforestation to naturalize the tributary to better support fish.

For Thomas, 57, who was unable to attend the open houses, the revitalization process is a big step in the right direction.

Using the camera gifted to him from his father three years ago, the former wood carver – who had to give up the profession following an accident on the job – hoped to share his photos in order to highlight the beauty right

in the community’s backyard.“A lot of places are so groomed,

I like this because there were

areas you could just leave and there are no real paths, per se, through here. But it’s game trails and these beautiful hidden clearings,” he explained. “If I can communicate what’s out there, then it might help others have more appreciation.”

The City of Surrey’s Parks Planning department is still taking suggestions for the project. To review the concept plan, visit www.surrey.ca/culture-recreation/13496.aspx

To add your voice to the project, email [email protected] or call 604-501-5050.

We live too long.Four words

out of the mouth of an octogenar-ian on the cusp of her next decade. A woman who has lived a long and adventurous life with no signs of her demise.

She will likely be one of many Canadians who will reach 100 years old, and by then the announce-ment will not be made by the local TV weath-erman as it will not be anything out of the ordi-nary.

With all the media coverage about dying with dignity, we can’t help but wonder what the future holds for us Zoomers.

Now, it is not my intent to wade into this timely and controver-sial debate except to say, we are all going to die. That is for certain.

And because we baby boomers are used to having things our way, needless to say, we will have a choice when our time comes. To depart this earth in a time of our choosing in a peaceful and unevent-ful fashion without repercussions for those left behind. Of that I am certain, the Supreme Court appeal notwithstanding.

As someone who has spent her entire career in health care, it still baffles me why we are so afraid to talk about death.

Even in the hospital setting where I worked, we were requested to use the words “expired” when someone died. My Visa “expires” – that is the only time I use this word.

And we resort to other euphemisms such as “passed away” or “passed on.”

When someone is born, we don’t say, “My child passed into the world” or was “inspired” at the time of their birth. Although looking back, as a par-ent, we hoped our kids were infused with a modicum of inspira-tion.

Why do we have such difficulty in using the ‘D’ word?

About 50 per cent of Canadians don’t have a will. That speaks vol-umes.

We live in a Western world that defies death as well as denies death.

As our friends and

relatives are starting to leave us in their 60s, dying too young, we can’t help but ponder on our own mortality.

Just like the above-mentioned octogenar-ian who has ample time

to reflect on a colourful life – a life that started in Eng-land where she was born into privilege. A sheltered exis-tence shattered by the assault of a world war where the pain of life reared its ugly head too soon.

No oppor-tunity for a

formal education but instead a new start in a promising, young country called Canada with a handsome Cana-dian husband and an uncertain future but a pocketful of dreams.

Then came a handful

of children and some hard times. But she was blessed with persever-ance and strength and an uncanny ability to roll with the punches and laugh at the same time. A modeling career and various jobs in the hospitality business. Her career ended with the Peace Arch News where she retired from the front office at age 69.

She, too, is a writer.Tranquility lays gently

down its peacefulness,

And, with the evening, calms and draws the mind to kneel

In reverence to its benediction.

It is the end and the beginning of the day’s reward

The quiet erasing of the daily score that leaves no mark

No memory unkind, no half-turned agony of soul.

It is a healer. A layer on of hands.

An Understanding.Deep into the heart,

the clamor fades.The lights are dim.And the Wanderer

comes back home.Thursday, this resil-

ient woman will cele-brate her 90th birthday.

Happy birthday, Mum!

White Rock cashier Joanne Beach can’t help but think that the photograph is an important one.

Featuring side-by-side images of a young boy and a grown man, it was found two or three months ago in the frame aisle of Deals World.

And though Beach kept it propped up at her till in the hopes whoever left it behind would return to claim

it, so far, the mystery behind its owner’s identity and who is pictured remains just

that – a mystery.“I just had a feeling

that it could be an important picture,”

Beach said Thursday. “They were obviously looking for a frame for the picture, left the picture.

“Something like that, you never know – it could be important. I just hope we can find the owner.”

Anyone who recognizes the photo is asked to contact Peace Arch News at 604-531-1711 or drop by 200-2411 160 St.

Grade 9 students at White Rock Christian Academy raised more than $1,000 for a Langley cancer-wig shop that was the victim of a recent robbery.

Through a handful of fundraisers – including a bake sale, pizza sale and a non-uniform day at the school, where students can wear regular clothes in exchange for a donation – WRCA’s Grade 9 Bible class raised $1,106 for The House of Miss Rose beauty salon, which makes wigs for patients who lose their hair during chemotherapy treatments.

The salon, at 20700 56 Ave. in Langley, was robbed earlier

this fall, and had thousands of dollars worth of wigs stolen.

Teeing off for charityMore than 20 golfers hit the

green for the Gastrointestinal Society’s annual Golf Marathon

earlier this month.Doctors, patients,

community members and supporters of the society teed off at Northview Golf and Country Club in Surrey Oct. 5,

raising $25,000 to support the GI Society’s essential programs to help individuals with GI and liver conditions.

Unlike traditional golf tournaments, the 22 participants completed as many rounds as they choose to, beginning at 8

a.m. with some golfers swinging until dusk.

Dozens of Semiahmoo Peninsula residents gathered at Centennial Park Leisure Centre Oct. 15 to mark Muslim holy day Eid Al Adha – known as the festival of sacrifice.

Members of the White Rock Muslim Association attended the morning prayer honouring the willingness of the Prophet Ibrahim – known in Christian and Jewish texts as Abraham – to sacrifice his only

son, Ismail, as an act of submission to Allah’s command, before Allah intervened to provide Abraham with a ram to sacrifice instead.

To mark the day, a lamb, goat or cow may be offered as a sacrifice, followed by visiting family and friends, eating and donating to the less fortunate.

Health and happiness at Royale Peninsula

atHeartYoungYoung

At Royale Peninsula Retirement Residence, residents enjoy new

freedom, with a world of options at their fingertips in a luxurious setting.

The plan at the Royale Peninsula is to provide a platform of good health, which goes far beyond diet and physical exercise.

The approach taken with staff and residents provides for all aspects of basic human needs, seen as elements of a whole, in an effort to achieve happiness and balance.

Because every individual has different goals for a healthy lifestyle, the Royale Peninsula provides the foundation for its residents, empowering them to provide the direction.

There are four main components to the retirement resort’s Holistic Health approach.

The first of these addresses the social, emotional and spiritual side of good health.

At the Royale Peninsula, residents enjoy the company of their peers in a warm community that makes it easy for them to connect through

a variety of programming and common amenity space.

Guided by their unique ‘Zest for Life’ philosophy, individual residents are made the focus of all of the services offered at the Royale Peninsula, from service delivery to program design and dining offerings.

“Our recreation staff will make every effort to find out what makes each resident tick,” says Kim Fitzpatrick, Leisure Consultant, Retirement and Long Term Care “Is there something you wish you were able to try, but haven’t had the time? Or something you used

to enjoy, and would like to experience again? Let us help reconnect you with a past hobby, recreate a meaningful experience, or fulfill a lifelong dream.”

The second aspect of the Royale Peninsula’s holistic wellness approach is physical health.

The on-site Recreation Manager, Diane, – also a licensed osteofit instructor – creates customized fitness plans for residents upon request.

There are a selection of drop-in fitness classes available

to take part in, including Zumba and Balance Fit.

In the on-site tidal pool, aqua-fit instructor Jayleen will teach individuals a gentle, yet invigorating, exercise regime – the perfect physical activity for those who may have mobility limitations.

Of course, at any age, we all want to feel productive, which is the third wellness focus at the Royale Peninsula. With positions available for all talents, skills and interests – including various resident committees, newsletter contribution and preparation, recreation leaders and more – residents can truly know that they are contributing to the greater good.

The final component of holistic wellness is intellectual health – recognizing that learning is a lifelong journey, the Royale Peninsula offers a wide variety of activities designed to challenge or excite the minds of residents.

Their recreation program includes excursions to heritage sites, museums and other inspiring locations. For residents who prefer to stay in the comfort of their new home, online education is available in their business centre and educational classes and seminars are offered in the theatre auditorium.

In addition to their whole-health approach to an inspired, fulfilling life, the Royale Peninsula offers a wide range of services and amenities tailored to residents’ individual needs.

Their in-house executive chef and his culinary team carefully plan each menu with resident input, taking into consideration nutritional needs or preferences. Residents enjoy a variety of comfortable favourites and new creations, and the staff members are happy to accommodate catering requests for special events, where residents are welcome to host guests.

For those who require a little extra help with day-to-day tasks, the care and support staff offer in-suite assisted-living services – such as dressing, bathing and grooming or medication assistance – designed to help residents live within the community safely and with peace of mind, as long as they wish.

If you’re ready for a lifestyle designed to honour your choices, promote your freedom and to provide you with opportunities to explore new experiences, visit the Royale Peninsula Retirement Residence today.

The Healing Power of Cold Laser TherapyCold Laser Therapy (often also called Low Intensity Laser Therapy or Low Level Laser Therapy) is an innovative treatment for a variety of acute and chronic – often painful – conditions.

Laser light transfers energy to interior cells• Stimulates natural healing• Restores normal cellular structure and function• Prevents future injury

What you will experience:• Pain goes away• Reduced infl ammation/swelling• Restored mobility

Why Cold Laser?• Healing, not just masking of pain• Safe, drug free & no side eff ects• Avoid or delay the need for surgery• Accelerate and strengthen the body’s natural healing mechanisms

The Concept Behind Cold Laser TherapyThe healing power of lightThe concept of Cold Laser Therapy is actually quite simple. As humans, light plays a very important role in our existence. Similar to how plant cells require light for photosynthesis, our cells need light to power many of the normal processes that keep us healthy and happy. As long as we are exposed to enough regular sunlight, our skin absorbs the light we need and our cells can use it for many of their normal functions. If our cells are working normally, then our bodies are able to withstand diff erent stresses from day to day activities and heal various ailments.Light therapy is not a new concept. It has been and continues to be used by doctors to treat a wide variety of conditions. For exam-ple, light has shown to be eff ective for treating many skin conditions including psoriasis and acne, depression and even tuberculosis before there were medications. Most people who suff er from arthritis can attest to the fact that their pain usually reduces or even completely subsides during the summer months or on a vacation to a sunny destination.Vitamin D, critical for keeping our bones healthy and strong, is created in our bod-ies by a process that requires sunlight. In places where there isn’t much sunlight available year round, people are usually encouraged to take vitamin D supple-ments during the darker months to help support their bones and prevent against bone-softening conditions such as rickets (in children) or osteoporosis.When we experience pain or infl ammation from a problem or injury in an area of our body, the normal cellular processes slow down and our body has trouble heal-ing as a result. Blood fl ow to these areas also gets interrupted, which restricts the ability of important nutrients to be delivered to the cells that need to heal.The scienceScientifi c research conducted over the last few decades has shown that human cells heal better and faster when the right wavelengths of light energy get delivered to them.Cold Laser Therapy is a breakthrough solution for musculoskeletal pain because it shines a concentrated amount of only helpful wavelengths of light vital for healing (which are in the red and infrared parts of the spectrum) directly on targeted areas. This allows our bones, ligaments, and tissues deep inside our bodies to be exposed to the healthy light that otherwise cannot reach these areas. By delivering just the helpful parts of the light spectrum, the overall laser light power can be kept at very low and therefore very safe levels, which will not burn or otherwise harm the skin or any other tissues.

How Does Cold Laser Therapy Work?Cold Laser Therapy delivers light based energy to cells, helping to accel-erate the body’s natural healing process at the cellular level. It targets injured cells, resulting in elimination and prevention of pain, reduction of infl ammation and swelling, and improved range of motion. Laser therapy does not just mask the pain, it actively stimulates healing to resolve mus-culoskeletal conditions for the long term.The Biofl ex Cold Laser Therapy system is a three step process, each using a diff erent wavelength of light which has been found to optimally stimu-late your body’s cells. The fi rst step uses a red light pad at 660 nm, which gets absorbed by the cells of the skin and underlying superfi cial layers of muscle. The second step uses an infrared light pad at 830 nm, reaching deeper into the muscle layers, as well as the tendons and ligaments. The third step includes an infrared laser wand at 840 nm that is placed specifi cally on the aff ected areas by a trained laser therapist. This light is very concentrated and targets the deepest aff ected structures, stimulating healing inside aff ected joints and even bone.

Cold Laser Therapy: Game Changer for Arthritis?Being in my late 50s, I’ve seen my fair share of “can’t miss” investment tips, over-hyped tech-nologies and way too many promises of miracle cures for this or that ailment. So call me a skeptic.

However every once in a while science and engineering produce a technology that is truly remarkable with a profound impact on some part of our life. Some of the technologies that our kids and grand-kids take for granted were not around when I grew up. Computers really changed things. And so did the Internet. There have been quite a few breakthroughs in health care. But most of the better known involve drugs or surgery. However as I found out a little while ago, there’s a remarkable new treatment option available for a variety of conditions that involves neither drugs nor surgery.

Niels’ Story

Early this year my wife Maria and I were having dinner with my friend and busi-ness partner Louba and her daughter Melanie, a bright young chiropractor who had been practising for a few years since obtaining her doctorate in chiropractic. At one point in the conver-sation she mentioned that there was a new technology based treatment called “Cold Laser Therapy”, which seemed to have rather dramatic results for a

variety of conditions. She mentioned that it was really good for accelerating the healing process for muscle tears, tendonitis and also for post surgical healing. I had remembered listening to a sports talk show some years earlier where the host had mentioned truly stun-ning acceleration of healing and getting back to normal when laser therapy was used after hip surgery. That all sounded very interesting as a mental note, if I ever needed such a procedure.

But when she mentioned Cold Laser Therapy had seen remarkable success in the treatment of arthritis, I asked “really?” I was rather skeptical, because my mom has been suff ering from osteoarthritis in an increasingly bad way for many years. People familiar with the condition know all too well, there’s no known cure for the condition, just some ways of fi ghting the symptoms. Some of the medication my mom had tried provided decent temporary relief, but over the years she had to get off the best of those medications because of their strong side eff ects and later because they interacted dangerously with her heart medication. So she found herself between a rock and a hard place. Quitting the heart medication would probably kill her so she had to live with increasingly bad arthritis pain. To use just a simple example, her hands would hurt so much that she took to changing the bedsheets over 3 days. One day to change the pillowcases, another day to change the sheets and a 3rd day to change the duvet cover.

Doctor Mel (that’s what everyone calls her) continued, “yes, this therapy has a remarkable success rate”. Being a health care provider she knows that nothing in health care is ever 100%, but anything that can really help 4 out of every 5 people is truly remarkable.

So the next day I called my mom in Ontario on Skype (another fabulous invention) and told her about “Cold Laser Therapy” and asked her to fi nd a clinic in her neighborhood, who provided such treatment. Over the years my mom had tried many diff erent treatments for her arthritis, most didn’t work, or the side eff ects were too negative. She was naturally a little hesitant. But when I asked her to do this as a favour to me, I think her motherly instincts took over.

After about 6 treatments over 3 weeks, she was very excited. “Look! I’ve got my hands back!” waving her hands to the computer camera, so I could see them. She showed me how much the range of motion in her hands had improved, how the swelling in the joints of her hand had gone down.

Why am I telling this story? Because I can’t believe that Cold Laser Therapy isn’t better known and I think it really should be. And for some people its benefi ts can amount to a life changing event enabling them to return to improved mobility and eliminated or reduced pain.

That dinner resulted in a partnership and a clinic providing Cold Laser Therapy, encouraged by my mom’s and others’ experiences plus other research. Sure, we’d love to be your cold laser therapy clinic of choice. But that’s not the most important point of my story. What’s most important is that this remarkable treatment exists and is truly worth learning about.

While we have enjoyed, for the most part, a beautiful fall here on the Semiahmoo Peninsula, in just a few short weeks, winter will be upon us.

If you’re like many retirees in our community, the colder temperatures tend to awaken the urge to head somewhere warm and sunny for a few weeks, or even a few months.

There are plenty of options when it comes to sun-filled destinations, from the ever-popular islands of Hawaii, to more uncommon areas of southern Europe, according to Cruise Holidays’ owner Nicky Armstrong.

While the mainstays for many seniors continue to be North American hot spots like Arizona, California and Florida, Armstrong noted that there are a number of great deals to be found in the south of Portugal and Spain this time of year.

One trip in particular to Algarve, Portugal includes 26 nights in a fully-equipped apartment, plus three nights hotel in Lisbon, airfare, economy car rental and all transfers for around $2,600 per person, including taxes.

If you prefer to spend your holiday aboard a luxurious cruise ship, Caribbean and Panama cruises are a popular choice for this time of year, generally lasting about 20 days.

Another popular multi-week cruise, according to Armstrong, is a repositioning voyage from the South Pacific that takes place in late winter or early spring. Travellers fly down to Australia or New Zealand and cruise back up to North America over a 20-day period.

“When you’re flying that far, you’re

not going to do just a seven-day cruise,” Armstrong pointed out. “You’ll want something a little more substantial.”

Group packages are a popular choice for the older generation of travel, which allow for a nice balance of guided excursions and independent exploration, with the safety and security of travelling with others.

If you like planning ahead, Armstrong said one of her agents will be flying with a group to London next fall, them embarking on a 14-day cruise down the Mediterranean.

When it comes to booking a holiday – whether it’s a quick tropical getaway or an extended stay in Europe – Armstrong always recommends travellers buy both cancellation and medical insurance. For retirees, she reminds them to pack more than enough medication to get through their trip, plus an extra pair of glasses just in case, and to always ensure your travel company has emergency contact info.

Charities often target certain groups of people when soliciting donations, and with the holiday season approaching, there is sure to be an increase in organizations appealing for help.

Unfortunately, this time of year there is often an increase in criminals posing as legitimate organizations who tend to target specific groups of people as well.

Anyone can be fooled by a fraudulent charity, but such criminals tend to target seniors more than others. Seniors often make attractive targets to con artists because they are most likely to have substantial savings, own their homes and/or have excellent credit.

These factors make seniors especially attractive and vulnerable to con artists, particularly those who prey on well-intentioned men and women by posing as fake charities. But there are steps seniors can take to protect themselves from fraud.• Be skeptical of solicitors. Many con artists will indicate that persons have given to the charity in the past, hoping that prospective victims simply won’t remember if that claim is valid or not. If a solicitor or appeal letter claims that you donated in the past, don’t simply take it at face value, especially if you don’t recall making such a donation. Get specific information about alleged past donations, checking that information against your own bank records and receipts. • Don’t feel obligated to reciprocate a gift with a donation. Many charities send gifts, be it mailing labels or holiday cards, to prospective donors as a token

of appreciation for past donations and as a way of encouraging future donations. Con artists are fully aware of this tactic and may try to imitate it in an attempt to defraud potential victims. • Beware of solicitors pressuring you to donate. Reputable charities should not be on the verge of shut down if you fail to make a donation, so such organizations never pressure prospective donors into making donations. If a solicitor is pressuring you into making a donation over the phone or in person, chances are strong that this person is not representing a reputable charity. authorities.• Send donations directly to the charity after independently confirming their address. When making charitable donations, those donations should never be given directly to solicitors. Donations should only be made after you have independently confirmed the charity’s address and mailed straight to the organization.

Take caution with donationsMany seniors fall victim to scams this time of year

Advice from people who live in the Royale Peninsula Retirement Residence

Dear Residents: What is the best way to introduce my grandmother to a residence? She is very social but I think a tour at a fi rst visit would be overwhelming to her and turn her off of the whole idea. – Sarah H.

Dear Sarah: There is a lot of information imparted during a tour that is diffi cult to retain – it is very understanding of you to consider a different approach for your grandmother.  For many people, it is not the layout of the building, but rather the impression they have of the residence atmosphere or culture that helps them to make a decision. Other

family members can take on the role of exploring the amenity spaces in advance and share that information with your grandmother, but for her introduction you may want to ask the marketing director to coordinate a visit with a few welcoming residents over tea. Ask that this be planned during a quieter time in the residence so she is not overwhelmed with the activity during a larger event. We suggest you limit this to just the social visit, and make a follow up appointment to view the suites and building with your grandma on another day.   – the Residents

SAFETY TIPSSAFETY TIPSThe enthusiasm of little ghosts, super heroes

and terrifying monsters during Halloween

can sometimes cause them to forget

some basic safety rules which they

have already been taught. Parents are

there to remend

them of these rules

but also to enforce

a few instructions in

order to make Halloween

celebrations in the street

or at home as creepy as

they are safe!

Vandalism is never okay. Throwing things at cars or houses can get children in serious trouble.

Remember that small, hard candies can be a choking hazard for young children.

Entrée. Cannot be combined with any other offer. Dine in only. No cash value.

Between October 27 & November 3, bring your child into The Pantry in their costume and

they will receive a FREE Kids Meal!*

Set agreed-to boundaries with your children. Explain the importance of staying within those boundaries.

Remind children to say thank you for the treats they receive.

the scene…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Little WomenTickets are available now

for the Surrey Youth Theatre Company (SYTCO) production of Little Women, Saturday Nov. 23 (7 p.m.) and Sunday, Nov. 24 (2 p.m.) at Earl Marriott Secondary’s Wheelhouse Theatre, 15751 16 Ave. Acted by a cast of 13- to 17 year-old student players, the heartwarming play was adapted from the classic semi-autobiographical Louisa May Alcott novel – chronicling enduring family values in New England through the heartache and hardships of the American Civil War period – by Marisha Chamberlain, and is directed by SYTCO founder and artistic director Susan Pendleton.

It’s the story of the four March sisters, ambitious Meg (Jodi-Ann Wang), tomboyish Jo (Cassandra Strain), retiring Beth (Kana Saarni) and headstrong Amy (double-cast between Sofie Levy and Julia Kelleway); their devoted mother and moral guide Marmee (Marina Cyr) and boy next door Theodore ‘Laurie’ Laurence (Dennis Sorescu).

Also featured are Tia Berezan as housekeeper Hannah, Shandel Riedlinger as critical and persnickety Aunt March, Frankie Xie as John Brooke, Zachary Wood as Mr. March and a special appearance by Norm Pettersson as Mr. Laurence.

Tickets ($12) are available from 604-805-3855 or by emailing [email protected]

Hounds spoofThe first full-scale theatrical

production at the Newton Cultural Centre (13530 72 Ave.) – The Hound of the Baskervilles, directed by Ellie King for the newly formed professional company Bad Dog Productions – closes this Thursday (Oct. 31).

It’s a spoof retelling of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s most chilling, Halloween-appropriate adventure, picking up on the genre established by the stage hit version of The Thirty-Nine Steps.

The Clive Francis adaptation employs a small cast (three men in this instance) to play all of the characters, male and female, with often hilarious results – but in spite of the lightning-fast changes of character, scenery and costume, it’s also a surprisingly faithful version of Conan Doyle’s plot.

The Bad Dog version stars Michael Charrois, Mark Carter and James Rowley, all of whom worked with King – recently named

in the Surrey Civic Treasures awards – at the now defunct Raymond Burr Performing Arts Centre in New Westminster on such productions as Charlie’s Aunt, The Haunting, Harvey and Dracula, The Silver Scream.

Performances are at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 22-31 with a 3 p.m. matinee Oct. 26.

Tickets ($25, $20 seniors and students) are available by calling 604-594-2700, or through [email protected] or www.baskervilles.org

Kierah Only a limited number of tickets

are available for an intimate concert aimed at fans of Celtic music – as well as exciting fusions of the form with other idioms.

Classically trained Celtic fiddler extraordinaire Kierah (Raymond) will present a dynamic, high-energy evening of traditional and

not-so-traditional music at White Rock’s Blue Frog Studios (1328 Johnston Rd.) Saturday, Nov. 16 at 8 p.m., in company with frequent collaborator, Victoria Celtic/jazz guitarist Adam Dobres.

Most recent accolade for the award-winning 18-year-old South Surrey musician is a nomination for a 2013 Canadian Folk Music Award (young performer of the year) for her newest CD, Stonemason’s Daughter (the awards will be held in Calgary, Nov. 8).

Well-known locally from her 10 years with the Semiahmoo Strings Youth Orchestra, Kierah has completed her classical violin studies with the Royal Conservatory of Music and is now concentrating on writing her own original tunes.

Dobres has worked extensively with B.C. fiddler Daniel Lapp and Blue Rodeo, and is currently a member of the Ruth Moody Band,

which recently opened for Mark Knopfler at the Albert Hall in London.

Tickets ($24) are available from Tapestry Music, www.irishmadness.com or 604-538-9271.

Hazelmere craft showHazelmere United Church will

present its Christmas Craft Show Nov. 2, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the church hall at 16 Avenue and 184 Street.

Featured will be a wide selection of crafts, pottery, jewellery, clothing and baked goodies.

Breath of Fresh ArtA group of 12 established Lower

mainland artists, A Breath of Fresh Art, will hold its latest show, ‘WoW’ Nov. 2 and 3. 10 a.m to 4 p.m. at Ocean Park Hall, 1577 128 St.

Following up on successful shows in November 2012 and May of this year, the show will feature many new and different paintings.

Participating artists are Adrienne Moore AFCA, Carolynn Doan, Eileen Fong, Gary McDonald, Gwen Murphy, Jess Rice, Lee Caulfield, Lora Armbruster, Mac Grieve, Nicole Carrie, Sheila Symington and guest artist Marilyn Hurst.

All artists will be in attendance during the show and admission is free.

Werner Spangehl bookA launch event for South Surrey

physician Dr. Werner Spangehl’s first book, One Minute Medicine – Your Effortless Guide To Vibrant Health – an unusual treasure trove of medical advice presented in the narrative form of a novel – will take place Sunday Nov. 3, 3-5 p.m. at Beecher Place, 12160 Beecher St.

The wine and cheese reception will also feature music by the jazz guitar ensemble of Andrew Skepasts and Brandon Lin.

Dixieland jazzThe sounds of Dixieland and

retro jazz continue each Sunday from 3 to 6 p.m. at the Royal Canadian Legion Crescent Branch 240 (2643 128 St.).

The White Rock Traditional Jazz Society program continues at the legion with Lloyd, Evan and Arnt Arntzen and Black Stick, (Nov. 3), The Crescent City Shakers (Nov. 10) and the Maple Leaf Jazz Band (Nov. 17). Admission is $10 for the general public, $8 for WRTJS members.

In addition to appearances at the legion, WRTJS house band Red Beans and Rice, featuring leader Rice Honeywell Sr. on cornet and vocals, Gerry Green (reeds), Ray Batten (trombone, vocals), Don Ogilvie (guitar), Peg Thomson (piano) and Casey Tolhurst (bass) and a rotation of drummers, including Bob Aitken, Dave Ayton – and sometimes the leader’s 15-year-old grandson, Ethan Honeywell – can be caught every Friday night from 7 p.m. at Porter’s Bistro, 21611 48 Ave., in Langley’s historic Murrayville (reservations recommended, 604-530-5297).

Honeywell Sr. also plays smooth jazz every Wednesday with Bob Storms (reeds), sometimes joined by Rice Honeywell Jr. on blues harp, from 7-10 p.m. at Five Corners Bistro, 15182 Buena Vista Ave. (reservations, 604-538-5455).

lifestylesFun Fun fundraiser

A recycling fair last month helped bring organizers a few steps closer to revitalizing Fun Fun Park.

The committee working on the South Surrey park project brought in more than $5,100, with ElectroRecycle donating $4,129.50 to the park after collecting and recycling 1,129.5 kilograms of electric material on Sept. 21.

On top of the hefty donation from ElectroRecycle, the Fun Fun Park committee was able to raise another $1,000 in donations and raffle-ticket sales.

Search partyAn event to boost the

coffers of Crescent Beach-based marine search-and-rescue crews is set to rock Star of the Sea Hall Nov. 16.

The fundraiser dance featuring Cease and Desist is the Royal Canadian Marine Search and Rescue Station 5’s 11th annual, with proceeds to benefit such costs as equipment and training for the volunteer members.

The RCMSAR-5 team responds to marine emergencies in the Crescent

Beach, Boundary Bay and White Rock area. It relies on donations, corporate support and fundraising to operate.

Next month’s dance gets underway at 8 p.m. The

hall is located at 15262 Pacific Ave.

Tickets to the dance are $25 – a price that hasn’t changed since 2002.

For more information, call 604-531-9025, email [email protected] or visit www.rcmsar5.com

Sweet rewardsSweet treats helped raise

more than $1,600 for the new Sources Food Bank building last month.

The ice cream party brunch brought in more than two dozens guests to indulge their sweet tooth, including Olympic medallist Christine Girard, who made sundaes and greeted fans.

According to Sources, the brunch campaign for the food bank can be hosted by anyone. Attendees who make a monetary donation will receive a tax receipt for contributions $15 more.

To reserve a brunch, contact Source s’ Natasha Raey to receive a Brunch for the Bank host kit, at 604-836-1346.

sports…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Nick GreenizanSports Reporter

Whoever is in charge of hanging athletic banners at Semiahmoo Secondary

is going to have to make some more room on the walls of the gym.

The space is needed after the Semiahmoo Totems’ cross-country teams returned home from Fraser Valley championships at Abbotsford’s Clearbrook Park Wednesday with three team titles – from the Grade 8 boys, Grade 8 girls and junior girls teams.

“It’s by far the best we’ve ever done as a school,” said Semiahmoo cross-country coach Scott Yewchuk.

“It’s not uncommon for us to do well and come home with a banner, we’ve never won this many – we’ve never had a boys’ team win at Fraser Valleys.

“Every single kid ran well – just right across the board. It was just a wonderful day.”

The three banners come just a few weeks after the school nabbed four Surrey cross-country banners.

Team titles are tabulated by calculating the placings of each school’s top four runners, with the lowest total score winning.

Both Grade 8 titles were won by a single point – the Totem boys over Maple Ridge, the girls over Sullivan Heights – and adding to the drama, both victories were not official until the following day, after individual results were recounted and confirmed.

“We were actually at school Wednesday when we heard we’d won,” said Yewchuk. “It was as tight as it could get, in both races.”

In the four-km junior girls race, Clayton Heights runner Christina Sevsek placed first, crossing the finish line in 15 minutes, 15.17 seconds. Earl Marriott’s Georgia Ginther was fourth, and Semiahmoo runners Jessica Williams, Dominika Paige and Julia Greer were sixth, seventh and ninth, respectively.

Danielle Steer from Elgin Park was 11th, just ahead of Semi’s Emily Liang.

In the five-km junior boys

event, the Totems were third, led by Connor Jackson and Dawson Ribiero, who were fourth and fifth, respectively. Other south-end runners who fared well included Elgin Park’s Ben Watkins, in ninth, and Marriott’s Jackson Silvester-Lee in 11th.

In the three-km Grade 8 girls event, Semi’s Haley Ribiero finished second – just four seconds back of Abbotsford’s Sienna Lenz – while Sullivan Heights’ Emma Kramer and Alyssa Terry were fourth and fifth, respectively.

Semiahmoo’s Alexa Porpaczy was ninth, and three other Totems – Alina Tork, Priya Gillan and Chelsea Zhou – were inside the top-20.

In the Grade 8 boys race, Earl Marriott’s Jaxon Mackie was second, in a time of 10:08.46, while EMS teammate Sajjan Sarai was ninth.

Semi’s Annie Ouyang and Nick Whiteley also placed in the top 20 runners out of 56 total.

In the senior girls’ four-km run, Panorama Ridge was eighth overall, while Semiahmoo was 10th.

Semi’s Chelsea Ribeiro was the top individual runner among Surrey athletes, placing fourth, while Earl Marriott’s Fiona Brown was 14th and Panorama’s Chelsea Harkins was 20th.

In the five-km senior boys race, Earl Marriott’s Sterling Ginther was the top Surrey finisher, in fifth, while Semi’s Brandon Figueroa was sixth and Lord Tweedsmuir’s Liam McKay ninth.

Other runners to place in the top 20 included White Rock Christian Academy’s Jordan Gin and Panorama’s Philip Truong.

Teams are now preparing for provincial cross-country championships, set for Saturday at Aldergrove Lake Park.

Coming off a successful Fraser Valley championship, Yewchuk hoped his team would be able to contend for another banner or two.

“We’ll just get out there, run as hard as we can. and see what happens,” he said.

sportsThird periods plague Surrey in back-to-back games

‘Inconsistent’ Eagles lose twoNick GreenizanSports Reporter

Inconsistency continues to plague the Surrey Eagles, who were saddled with two more losses on the weekend.

On Friday, the Eagles lost 3-2 on the road to their BC Hockey League rival Chilliwack Chiefs, and Saturday at South Surrey Arena, fell 5-3 to the visiting West Kelowna Warriors. In both contests, the Eagles were either tied or ahead in the third period, before coughing up points to the opposition.

“We’re just a little inconsistent right now – turning over the puck too much,” said Eagles head coach Peter Schaefer.

“And when you’re constantly turning it over – not just in the defensive zone but on offence, too – it’s tough to get much going.”

Against Chilliwack Friday, the game was knotted 2-2 after 40 minutes, until Chiefs’ leading scorer Austin Plevy scored a shorthanded goal 9:52 into the third period to give the home team the lead.

Joseph Drapluk and captain Brett Mulcahy scored for the Eagles, while goaltender Bo Didur was tagged with the loss in net.

The following night, against the Warriors, Surrey held a 3-2 lead heading into the final frame – on goals from Kale Bennett, Austin Ferguson and Mulcahy – but West Kelowna tied the game on a pair of power-play goals,

and then Tyson Dallman, who scored the tying goal, fired home the winner with less than two minutes to go.

“We just have to get back to doing the simple things right. Because when you do the small things, right, they turn into big things, and that’s when you start to get some wins,” Schaefer said.

“Right now we’re not getting the bounces, but we don’t deserve to get them right now.”

Devon Fordyce took the loss in net for the Eagles.

The Eagles have a 7-10-1 record as they head into November, and site fourth in the BCHL’s Mainland Division. By not picking

up a point last weekend, they fell nine points back of the division-leading Langley Rivermen, who won twice.

The Eagles are at home for two games this weekend. On Friday, they host the Prince George Spruce Kings and Saturday, the Alberni Valley Bulldogs come to town. Both games start at 7 p.m.

Adamo dealtThe brief logjam in the Surrey

Eagles’ crease has been settled.

Last week, the Eagles dealt former starting goaltender Victor Adamo to the St. Michael’s Buzzers of the Ontario Junior Hockey League for future considerations.

Adamo, 20, became expendable when the team picked up 19-year-old Fordyce from the Brooks Bandits earlier this month.

While Adamo had been mostly solid in net for Surrey, Schaefer said the move was made to increase roster flexibility, as dealing Adamo frees up one of six 20-year-old spots on the

roster.“He’d been good for us, but he

had let in a couple weak ones lately, and 20-year-old spots, you only get six, so you need those guys to be impact players,” Schaefer said.

“And Fordyce is only 19, so he can come back here next season, too.”

With five other 20-year-olds still on the roster, the trade allows the Eagles to move defenceman Danny Vlanich – who turns 20 Nov. 25 – from the reserve roster to the regular roster.
