A NEW POLL suggests Lower Mainland residents generally support a casino in their community – if one already exists.

� e new Insights West online poll found a 55-per-cent majority of Metro Vancouver and Fraser Valley residents whose community hosts a casino supports it, but the mood is marginally against gambling venues in cities that don’t yet have one.

In those areas, 45 per cent oppose a new casino, compared to 42 per cent who support a future addition.

� e � ndings come in the wake of Surrey city council’s rejection in January of a new 600-slot South Surrey casino and entertainment complex, which would have replaced an existing community gaming centre in Newton.

“A� er the Surrey casino debacle, there has been a lot of public debate about the level of public support for or against the construction of new casinos,” Insights West president Steve Mos-sop said.

“Our poll shows that, generally speaking, the public is in favour of casinos – just not new ones.”

� e poll found a overwhelming majority of regular casino patrons (84 per cent) support existing casinos and two-thirds of patrons back new ones in municipalities that don’t yet have them.

� e top concern respondents listed was problem gambling, with 72 per cent agreeing casinos make it worse, while 48 per cent said they’re harmful to society and bring crime and gang activity.

Tra� c and parking were also a concern of nearly half of those polled.Casino opponents and supporters generally agreed casinos boost the local tax base,

bring jobs and attract tourists.� e big divide between the two camps is whether casinos are bad for society – 88 per

cent of opponents think so but only 10 per cent of supporters do.“� ese � ndings suggest that the greatest barrier for support of casinos is not a simple

NIMBY [not in my back yard] syndrome, but instead the broader concern about soci-etal problems that a greater access to casino gambling can create,” Mossop said.

Trucks shift to free Pattullo to beat Port Mann tolls: Watts

by Jeff Nagel

SuRRey MayoR Dianne Watts is alarmed an estimated 25 per cent more trucks are using the free Pattullo Bridge since the province started charg-ing tolls on the new Port Mann Bridge.

Watts said she received the estimate of trucks diverting to the Pattullo from the B.C. Trucking Association, which made the calculation based on City of Surrey traffic counts.

“We knew there would be some diversion – it’s been a concern since square one,” said Watts, who chairs a new Metro Vancouver transportation committee.

“It’s problematic because the infrastructure can’t accommodate it.”

Critics of tolls on the new Port Mann had predicted a major shift in traffic to the free route once the toll bridge opened in December. The opening of the northern section of the South Fraser Perimeter Road has

acted as a bypass, carrying toll-avoiding traffic most of the way to the Pattullo.

Big rigs sometimes straddle both lanes over the Pattullo because the 75-year-old span is too narrow, compounding delays from heavy truck

traffic. Watts said part of the problem is heavy trucks

haven’t been offered an introductory discount – regular drivers who signed up by February get half-price tolls all year – or the option of a reduced rate monthly pass offered to other drivers. Large trucks pay a full $9 per crossing, which some truck-ers estimate can add up to $12,000 a year.

“If there isn’t a monthly pass for large trucks – which there isn’t right now – then there has to be a discount,” Watts said. “We’re talking the

economy, we’re talking the movement of goods. So we have to deal with these issues.”

Strong showing of family and friends

honor woman’s memory Friday

by Kevin Diakiw

MoRe than 60 people packed a room to honour the memory of a woman beaten to death and left for dead on the streets of Whalley.

Janice Shore was laid to rest on Friday morning at the Avalon Surrey Funeral Home, providing closure to family and friends after her violent death.

Pastor MaryAnne Connor spoke right away about the “elephant in the room,” regarding the need for mean-ingful justice to be meted out to those responsible for Shore’s death.

Connor also drew parallels between Shore’s life and her own – being the star in their Daddy’s eye, losing him too early in life, and dealing with the emotional fallout from there.

All three of Shore’s children were at the ceremony, as were her sister and two brothers.

Shore died Feb. 18 after being found badly beaten in a vacant lot in Whalley on Dec. 2.

Connor challenged the crowd to take the tragedy seriously and think about how society can better raise awareness about violence against women, mental illness, addiction, poverty and homelessness.

“We need to find a solution, and can’t give up until we do,” Connor said after the service, “so that her death is not in vain.”

Connor said it would be Shore’s wish that some good would come out of her death.

After the service, the group gath-ered at NightShift Street Ministries for an open mic celebration of Shore’s life.

aniva Shaji had just started Grade 7 when she died.

School kicks offfundraising campaign

to benefit Make-A-Wish Foundation

by Sheila Reynolds

aniva Shaji liked to swim and ride horses and couldn’t resist a good book.

The petite girl with the dark hair and big brown eyes always had a smile at the ready – a quality that didn’t go unnoticed.

“She was very optimistic about life,” said

student Gurtej Jaswal during an assembly at Newton Elementary on Wednesday. “She was a very good friend.”

About four years ago, Aniva’s health began to deteriorate due to a degenerative muscle disorder.

But Aniva didn’t waste her time whining or grumbling. She continued living her life to the fullest, having snowball fights and visiting the swimming pool and travelling with her family.

“She couldn’t stand the pain, but she never complained,” said her father.

As her condition worsened, Make-A-Wish Foundation contacted Aniva and asked if there was a wish she would like to see come true.

Many children request – and are often granted – wishes such as exotic trips or fancy bedroom makeovers or meeting their favou-rite celebrities. But not Aniva. She simply wanted her own laptop.

Make-A-Wish granted her request the same day.

“She was a very simple and humble person and she never asked for very many things because she was happy with her life,” said Ansu Shaji, Aniva’s sister.

The 21-year-old said her youngest sibling taught her a lot.

“It’s not about how long we have lived, but how much we have lived,” said Ansu.

Newton Elementary honours former student

“It’s problematic because the infrastructure can’t

accommodate it.”

Watts noted truck traffic in the region is projected to grow steadily as Port Metro Vancouver expands and cargo shipments increase.

B.C. Trucking Association Vice-President Trace Acres said the increase in truck use at the Pattullo doesn’t necessarily prove there’s a large diversion from the Port Mann, but added truckers are carefully weighing the costs and benefits of different routes since the new tolls kicked in.

Acres said the Transportation Investment Corp., the Crown cor-poration that administers the Port Mann, has committed to consider a monthly pass for heavy trucks in the months ahead.

“There was some concern the trucks weren’t being offered a discount in the same way smaller vehicles were,” he said.

TI Corp. spokesman Max Logan said Port Mann traffic counts show no evidence large numbers of trucks are diverting to the Pattullo.

“Those numbers aren’t con-sistent with what we’re seeing on

the Port Mann Bridge right now,” Logan said. “Our truck numbers and our overall traffic volumes are consistent with what we saw before tolling started.”

In January, he said, 2.86 million vehicles crossed the bridge, com-pared to 2.9 million in the same month of 2012.

Truck counts fluctuate more, he said, but range from 10,000 to 15,000 crossings a day.

One permanent discount that is offered to big trucks gives them half price tolls if they travel over-night from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m.

Aniva passed away last October, prior to her 14th birthday. She had just started Grade 7 at Newton Elementary.

On Wednesday, the Surrey school honoured Aniva by kicking off a fundrais-ing campaign to benefit Make-A-Wish, whose mission it is to grant requests of children with life-threatening medical conditions.

Funds will be raised through the sale of light-up star necklaces ($5) at the school, as well as a popcorn sale next month.

As well, every child in the school was sent home with a blue star piggy bank to save coins for the next three months. All the money collected at the school by June will go toward granting the wishes of children.

Aniva, said her sister, always thought of others and was an inspiration.

“She was so caring and loving and full of energy,” said Ansu. “She gives me hope and faith. She was the best sister anyone could have asked for.”

It seems job security is not one of the benefits that comes from working for Premier Christy Clark.

Last week, British Columbia’s multicultural minister John Yap stepped aside after a document proposing a

series of initiatives to win the favour of ethnic voters in the run-up to May’s provincial election was leaked earlier this month. The premier’s deputy chief of staff, Kim Haakstad, was the first to take the fall for the memo.

Haakstad, whose name had the misfortune of appearing atop the controversial memo as its author, has been a part of pre-mier’s inner circle of advisors and confidants since June, 2001, when she served as Clark’s executive assistant.

It’s hard to believe Haakstad would issue any memo without the full knowledge and consultation of her boss.

Of course wooing specific interests isn’t a new election strategy. Heck, it’s pretty much what every election campaign is about.

But for a government that can’t seem to get out of its own way as it stumbles toward a spring campaign as the underdog, the 17-page document that outlines ways to win favour with ethnic communities offends on two fronts – by using non-political government resources and information for political purposes, and by patronizing ethnic groups.

It’s true these strategies are no doubt discussed in caucus and campaign strategy meetings of parties of every political stripe.

But the memo suggests the B.C. Liberals clearly crossed a line.

Opening the drawer to expose the B.C. Liberals’ dirty laun-dry is embarrassing. For that, someone had to take the fall, just as members of the premier’s communications team have paid the price for her previous gaffes.

However, the way things are going, they’re just beating her to the unemployment line.

– Black Press

The B.C. legislature session ends this week. It can’t come quickly enough for Premier Christy Clark and the B.C. Liberals.

� is is also the week we see the rest of the fallout from “ethnic-gate,” as the latest contro-versy over partisan activity by political sta� has been clumsily labelled.

A disgruntled former B.C. Liberal caucus sta� er handed the NDP opposition an internal memo setting out a strategy for ethnic “out-reach” that strayed into forbidden territory, suggesting that ethnic-friendly government events could be staged and participants’ names collected and turned over to the party.

“� is secret plan clearly demonstrates the Liberals are deliberately folding government resources and sta� into their party’s campaign machinery, despite rules that forbid this,” thundered NDP house leader John Horgan. “We’ve seen this before, with the Liberals’ e� orts to run a secret committee to subvert the public process around Burnaby Hospital, and in the attack website created by caucus sta� and launched by the Liberal party.”

Casual observers might see this as a disturb-ing new development in misuse of public resources. It’s disturbing, all right, but it’s hardly new.

� e “attack website” Horgan refers to is a case in point. While a website targeting NDP leader Adrian Dix was being cooked up in the B.C. Liberal bunker, a similar e� ort was being developed in NDP research down the hall.

� is partisan message detailed all the worthwhile things that could be done with the govern-ment’s $15 million advertising budget singing the praises of the government’s “jobs plan.”

But this one carried the logo of the NDP caucus, so it was within the rules. � e average person, seeing two groups of sta� on the public payroll, each slagging the other, might not detect much of a di� erence.

� e biggest headline from the leaked memo was its reference to generating “quick wins”

for the election campaign by staging apologies for historic racial injustices. It mentioned how former premier Gordon Campbell delivered a solemn apology in 2008 for the decision to turn away a ship carrying Sikh refugees from

Vancouver harbour – shortly a� er the outbreak of the First World War.

What does a modern pro-vincial premier accomplish by apologizing for a federal immi-gration decision made in 1915? Why would another premier now feel the need to apologize for a federal “head tax” imposed on Chinese immigrants from 1885 to 1923?

� e answer is obvious.Again, don’t expect much to

change with an NDP government. Asked last week if he would stage an apology for the head tax, Dix delivered a well-rehearsed history les-son that made it clear he is anxious to do so. 

Welcome to politics in an urbanized, global-ized media culture. It’s more important to put

on a show than to do the right thing. Hospitals are announced three times before they’re built, then announced again when they are sta� ed.

Politics is a lucrative career. Former B.C. Liberal MLA Lorne Mayencourt is one of the additional “outreach” sta� hand-picked by Clark. � e B.C. Liberals retort that the NDP caucus has a similar sta� er named Gabriel Yiu, who has taken three leaves of absence to run for MLA, and is in practical terms a profes-sional NDP candidate.

Yiu is running for a fourth time in Van-couver-Fraserview, having been defeated in 2009 by former West Vancouver police chief Kash Heed. � at campaign was notorious for anonymous Chinese-language pamphlets claiming the NDP favours legalizing drugs and imposing a “death tax” on inheritance.

� is latest scandal might produce meaning-ful reform. But the misuse of public money to further the interests of political parties is deeply entrenched.

Just a note from a (slightly) miffed Dad from the team (J.L. Crowe Hawks from Trail ) that the Holy Cross Crusaders recently beat 116-24.

At some point, in a tournament where total points aren’t an issue, (i.e. no tiebreakers), going up more than 30 points on another team is a bit much. Our senior boys have been in that position, and they quickly switched to playing second-stringers, not full-court pressing, and making very sure no one gets hurt.

I have a hard time believing that the Holy Cross girls were demonstrating any real “sportswoman-ship.”

 Anyway, congratulations on their skills, if not their class.

I really enjoyed Tom Fletcher’s column about David Suzuki and friends cherry picking (“The Don Cherry of television science,” The Leader, Feb. 26).

It was a good exposé of the way in which Suzuki’s speeches and comments are so one-sidedly selective and don’t tell the

whole story. He has built a career on this kind of

activity, and I for one do not admire him, or respect his opinions.

Dirtyoutcomes with coal

In a recent column (“Joe Oliver on oil, gas and coal,” The Leader, March 5), Tom Fletcher quotes Federal Natural Resources Minister Joe Oliver as saying, “Coal is con-tributing 40 times the greenhouse gas emissions of the oil sands.”

The minister also states that the Stephen Harper government’s objec-tive is to see all Canadian coal-fired electricity plants closed.

What kind of double-speak is this? If coal is such a bad fuel, and if the Harper government is committed to phasing out coal-fired plants in Canada, then it’s totally counter-productive to be shipping millions of tonnes of it every year from Port Metro Vancouver to China – where it is burned in plants that are no doubt far dirtier than ones here.  

Air pollution and greenhouse gases know no boundaries. What pollutes China will come back to pollute Canada too. While a few large corporations enjoy huge profits, we taxpayers are on the hook for the health and environmental fallout. 

As if massive coal exports weren’t outrageous enough in themselves, now the plan is to bring eight million tonnes of the stuff each year to Fraser Surrey Docks – in open rail cars, straight through North Delta’s priceless natural corridor. The trains will run mere metres from the best salmon spawning grounds on Watershed Creek and Cougar Creek, and then right through the heart of the Delta Nature Reserve (the public-access portion of Burns Bog). 

Even more astounding, the coal will be transferred to barges right on B.C.’s greatest salmon river, the Fraser. 

We’re told that only “small” amounts of coal dust will escape the trains, and that toxic heavy metals associated with coal are “less likely” to be in airborne dust than in lumps of coal. Nonsense! Small amounts, multiplied many times, become very large and harmful amounts.

It doesn’t take a massive spill to destroy human and environmental health, all it takes is the day-in day-out deposition of “small” amounts of coal dust.

Wikipedia says Port Metro Van-couver and Fraser Surrey Docks are accountable to the federal minister of transport. If that’s the case, then I call on Transport Minister Denis Lebel to mandate zero tolerance of coal dust in all phases of transport and handling. Better yet, phase out coal transport entirely and re-direct the investment into clean energy.

B.c.’s InformatIon and Privacy Commis-sioner has raised concerns about the lack of record-keeping in Premier Christy Clark’s office. The commissioner found Clark’s office failed to find records for 45 per cent of Free-dom of Information requests, the highest level of any government department.

Obviously Clark prefers to run govern-ment business orally so there are no (potentially) incriminating paper trails.

How many examples of incompetence and mismanagement do the members of the B.C. Liberal party need before

they admit the job of premier is beyond Clark’s (ethical) capacity?

I fInd it interesting that Adrian Dix and the NDP oppose balancing the budget and even went as far as to say: “Well, we might get around to balancing the budget in four or five years.”

So there is the deciding factor for me. A government in waiting that will continue to pile on debt for my kids to pay off or one that will do whatever it can to reach a balanced budget to ensure my kids have less debt, help ensure a triple A credit rating to reduce interest pay-ments which will help lower taxes as a result.

As much as I was toying and tinkering with the NDP, I have decided to vote for responsible government.

Sandra Robinson, Maple Ridge

Budget plans the deciding factor

I read with interest Marion O’Byrne’s letter to the editor Feb. 5 regarding “Putting up with monster homes.”

As a 43-year resident of Surrey, I couldn’t agree more. The lack of action by Surrey council regarding monster homes and illegal suites is appalling.

One block away from my residence in Fleetwood we now have a tailor operating out of his basement with “open” signs and awnings over the entrance and driveway and,

up until neighbours complained, full  neon signage.

We now must endure year-round Christ-mas lights to make up for the lost neon.

This is only one example of many in Fleet-wood and all very legal according to Surrey’s bylaw department.

You cannot be intolerant, so you must therefore move. It is not going to change.

TransLink officiaLs are being criticized by Metro Vancouver mayors for backing off on the push for new funding solutions to expand the transit system.

Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie accused the transportation authority of shirking the unpopular task of secur-ing new revenue tools and dumping the job in the laps of the mayors.

“This is a complete and utter abdication by the board and by TransLink to do what they’re sup-posed to do,” Brodie said at a March 7 meeting of Metro Vancouver’s newly formed transportation committee.

The regional mayors council has called on the province to provide TransLink with new cash sources – an annual vehicle levy, road pricing, a share of carbon tax rev-enue or a small dedicated sales tax of no more than 0.5 per cent.

“We are taking on the role because no one else is taking it on,” Brodie said. “Everybody else has walked away.”

Brodie also criticized TransLink board chair Nancy Olewiler for so far failing to keep a promise to open up closed board

meetings to the public.Burnaby Mayor Derek

Corrigan also argued the TransLink board has not sufficiently backed up the mayors in the push for new funding.

TransLink executive vice-president Bob Paddon responded, saying it’s “very difficult” to have an informed dialogue with the public at large about new taxes or fees to fund Trans-Link.

Trans-Link has been repeatedly slammed with media headlines like “28 ways for TransLink to pick your pocket” when new sources were floated, he told the mayors.

“We pushed hard on this, we got nowhere with it,” Paddon said. “It is something people are very passionate about, they have strong opin-ions about.”

Instead, he said, the

board and executive concentrated on finding efficiencies to cut Trans-Link’s costs.

TransLink needs at least another $5 billion just to keep up the exist-ing system over the next 30 years.

To sig-nificantly expand the system, Paddon estimated $14 to $23 billion will be needed over the same period, depending on how fast the region wants to grow and the types of transit upgrades that are picked.

That expansion

spending equates to a need for TransLink to raise an extra $175 to $700 million per year to fund its share of capital costs, he said, assuming the federal and provin-cial governments still contribute large shares as well.

TransLink will lay out

a plan on transit line expansions, such as the Vancouver and Surrey extensions, over the next 15 years, with costs.

Delta Mayor Lois Jack-son noted $2.3 billion in capital spending divided by 2.3 million residents is the equivalent of $10,000 per capita, adding that is “not acceptable by any standpoint.”

Surrey Mayor and committee chair Dianne Watts reminded her the $2.3 billion doesn’t count senior government contributions.

Paddon also pointed out some of TransLink’s success depends on the decisions of individual cities to densify housing on transit corridors to increase ridership and revenue.

He showed aerial pho-tos of some original Expo Line SkyTrain stations in east Vancouver, still sur-rounded by low-density single-family houses after more than 25 years

“I understand there are reasons why things don’t happen,” Paddon said. “But if we are going to make those invest-ments we want to see the benefits.”

The meeting happened after Mayors Council chair Richard Walton said he was disappointed with the provincial government’s lack of response to the calls for funding reform.

“Without the proper tools and authority, our hands are tied,” he said.

Transportation Minis-ter Mary Polak indicated the province would take no new steps before the May provincial election.

IN PRIZESAWARDED

by Tom Fletcher

Premier Christy Clark surprised the Opposi-tion Thursday with a statement in the B.C. legislature endorsing a proposed heavy oil refin-ery near Kitimat.

Clark emphasized that the project would be sub-ject to the five conditions about environmental safety and aboriginal consultation that she has demanded for heavy oil pipelines.

But she praised the job creation potential and added that a refinery would help supply the “fair share” of benefits for B.C. that is her most controversial condition.

David Black, owner of the Black Press newspaper group in B.C., Alberta and the U.S. (which includes The Surrey-North Delta Leader), set up a separate

company called Kitimat Clean Ltd. last year to develop the refinery plan and seek permits from the B.C. Environmental Assessment Office.

Black announced last week that he is finalizing details for $25 billion in financing and purchase agreements for the gasoline, diesel and jet fuel that the plant would produce.

“Our government takes the view that we should work together to address legitimate environmental and safety concerns and find a way to get to yes on projects that will grow our econ-omy,” Clark said, adding that the B.C. government has been working with Black’s team to secure a suitable site.

Energy Minister Rich Coleman said there is Crown land in the Kitimat area held in an

industrial reserve that could be leased or sold to the company for use of the land.

Black’s proposal speci-fies a 3,000-hectare site 25 kilometres north of Kitimat that is on the proposed route of the Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline. With capacity to process all the pipeline carries, it would be one of the largest refineries in the world.

Black said last week he is pessimistic about the prospects for Enbridge,

but the refinery could bring in Alberta oil sands crude by rail, or another pipeline acceptable to aboriginal groups along the route. Rail transport would require six trains a day, but he said no per-

mits are required and CN Rail is willing to do it.

The $16-billion refinery would require another $9 billion in construction, including six product pipelines to Douglas Channel to load

ships with refined fuel, and a natural gas pipeline to produce power, fire refining equipment and supply hydrogen for a new process to refine heavy oil.

NDP energy critic John Horgan said he plans to meet with Black next week, but he was dismissive of Clark’s endorsement.

“I think it’s important that the public under-stands that this is a long, long way into the future,” Horgan said. “And for a

government that’s down to 68 days left in its mandate before people vote again, it seems odd to me that we would have taken time in the legislature today to read a press release about a proposal that may not happen until after the next election.”

Black estimates that environmental assess-ment will take up to two years, and the refinery could be up and running by 2020.

Federal Funding cuts have forced the closure of an office that coor-dinates environmental protection in the Fraser River estuary and Bur-rard Inlet.

Critics say it’s a fresh blow to habitat protection in Metro Vancouver that could concentrate more power to approve development in the hands of port officials.

The Fraser River Estuary Management Program (FREMP) and Burrard Inlet Environ-mental Action Program (BIEAP) have stopped vetting shoreline devel-opment applications and will close their Burnaby office doors at the end of the month.

Port Metro Vancou-ver has stepped in to handle incoming proj-ect applications on a temporary basis until a new partnership model can be developed.

The move came after Ottawa chopped about half of the $350,000 annual budget for

FREMP and BIEAP, and follows earlier cuts to Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) staff here and across B.C.

Former DFO habitat assessment manager Otto Langer said the decision continues a pattern of federal cutbacks and policy shifts that leave fewer safeguards in place for sensitive ecosystems.

“It’s a callous disre-gard for environmental protection,” Langer said.

Langer believes the loss of the FREMP/BIEAP coordinating role will reduce scrutiny and free Port Metro

Vancouver to further industrialize sensitive areas.

“They’re given more and more authority to do whatever they want in the estuary,” he said. “Their legislated mandate is to develop and meet the needs of industry. It’s the wolf being put in charge of the sheep.”

But Langer agreed the twin programs have become less relevant over the years – they date back to when three separate harbour authorities existed that have since been merged into Port Metro.

Port Metro Vancou-ver officials say their intervention to handle incoming referrals will be only a temporary one and final approvals will be up to federal or provincial environmen-tal agencies.

The port isn’t taking on any new powers or responsibilities that it did not already have, said Darrell Desjardins, director of environmen-tal programs at Port Metro Vancouver.

“This is very short term,” he said. “We are just acting in the interim as the lead agency while DFO establishes their own front counter or portal to get information into their system and also the province as well.”

Although there will be no standalone office, Desjardins said the multi-agency partner-ship will continue.

Metro Vancouver environment com-mittee chair Heather Deal expressed “grave concern” with the clo-sure and added Metro officials are working

to be part of whatever solution emerges.

“We know there’s increasing pressure, not decreasing pres-sure, on our sensitive eco-resources along our shorelines.”

The office has worked on behalf of the provin-cial environment min-istry, Metro Vancouver and the federal fisheries, environment and trans-portation departments to jointly coordinate

environmental manage-ment in the area.

Its demise comes as the port is under fire for plans to expand coal exports and oil tanker shipments.

Crude oil exports through Port Metro Vancouver climbed 35 per cent last year – one of the few areas of hefty growth for port shipments in 2012.

The port says 50 oil tankers loaded at the Burnaby terminus of the Kinder Morgan pipeline, up from 34 the year before.

The record in a single year was 69 tankers in 2010, but that’s expected to be shattered if a proposal to twin the Trans Mountain pipeline is approved, bringing up to 400 tankers a year through Vancouver harbour as soon as 2017.

Total cargo shipments through Port Metro Vancou-ver were up just one per cent.

Coal exports totalled 32.7 million tonnes, about 70 per cent of it for steel-making, not power production.

That was still up 0.5 per cent but less than expected because Westshore Terminals’ main coal berth was knocked out of service after a ship crashed into it Dec. 6.

Potash shipments were also down because China was refusing to buy during price negotiations with Canadian exporters.

“Those two things took our growth down a little bit,” Port Metro Vancouver president and CEO Robin Silvester. “Overall it was a pretty solid year.”

Container traffic through the port grew eight per cent, setting a new record of 2.7 million containers shipped.

More containers destined for the U.S. were also handled and Silvester said that’s a credit to ongoing efforts to make handling containers and hauling them through the Lower Mainland more efficient.

Several road and overpass projects were underway in 2012 and continue this year.

Silvester said 300 container-hauling trucks now have GPS units installed and the port aims to increase that to about 1,000, or half the fleet.

The resulting data is expected to help terminals and truckers connect more efficiently, hopefully reduc-ing the long waits truckers often spend in lineups at container terminals.

Silvester said the GPS units will also show which trucks are using roads that aren’t designated truck routes so that can be stopped.

Planning continues on the proposed Terminal 2 at Deltaport that would double container-handling capacity there.

Silvester predicts environmental permitting applica-tions will be filed within 12 months.

He said the new container terminal will add 18,000 permanent jobs.

“It’s a critically important project for the port and for the Lower Mainland and for Canada.”

As for controversial plans to add coal export capac-ity in the region, Silvester said he’s not sure when the port will decide on whether to okay a proposed new coal terminal at Fraser Surrey Docks.

“There really isn’t a timeline,” he said. “We’ll make a decision when all the questions are answered that need to be answered.”

He said there are no grounds that he sees to “rewind” the recent approval of a project to expand the export capacity of Neptune Terminals’ coal facility in North Vancouver.

Environmental groups that oppose coal exports have argued the approval process was flawed.

The port’s two automobile import terminals on the Fraser River brought in 380,000 new vehicles last year, a 29 per cent rebound from 2011, when Japanese car exports plunged due to that year’s earthquake and tsunami.

Virtually all Asian vehicles destined for Canada arrive here.

“If you’re driving an Asian-built car anywhere in Canada, right across to Newfoundland, it came in through the Fraser River,” Silvester said.

While much of the oil expected to flow through the Lower Mainland in future years would be bound for Asia, 80 per cent of the crude exports last year went to the U.S., mainly California.

The biTTer taste from a year ago is gone.

The Holy Cross Crusaders captured the B.C. Senior AA Girls High School Basketball Championship banner Saturday night in Kamloops, defeating the Vernon Panthers 69-37 in the final of the 16-team competi-tion.

A year ago, the Crusaders reached the final four before they were upset, and at the time set their goal on winning it all this season.

And they did so by dominat-ing the field. After a one-sided first-round victory, the Crusad-ers won their final three games by an average of 30 points . A 22-point margin in the semi-final game was the closest a competitor came to defeating

the number one-ranked Surrey school.

Unfortu-nately for the school, they were unable to celebrate two pro-vincial champion-ships. The

Crusaders boys team, which was also ranked number one in the province, lost in the semifinal Friday night. They came back Saturday to defeat the Lambrick Park Lions 86-75 to place third.

“We saw what happened to the boys on Friday,” said Crusaders girls head coach Steve Beau-champ. “We’ve been there twice before and come out on the wrong end of the score. But they came back after the tough loss and played very well Saturday.”

It was a young Crusaders team that challenged for the girls championship last season, only to have their run come to end with a last-minute 76-72 loss to the Lambrick Park Pride in a semifinal contest.

With much the same team back for this season, the Crusad-ers didn’t let up on the opposi-tion.

They crushed the J.L. Crowe Hawks 116-24 on Wednesday, then breezed past the Duchess Park Condors 72-37 on Thurs-day. In the semifinal round Friday, they pulled away in the second half for a 62-40 win over the Wellington Wildcats.

And on Saturday night, they dominated Vernon, leading 21-14 after one quarter and and 35-16 at half time. They were ahead 57-27 going into the final

period.“We didn’t shoot the ball well

Friday or Saturday,” said Beau-champ. “But the kids did it on the defensive end.”

Michelle Bos capped off her

MVP (Most Valuable Player) performance with 16 points and 14 rebounds against the Panthers, with first all-stars Rachel Beauchamp (14 points), Amy Sprangers (12) and Nicole

Vanderhelm (10) also scoring in double digits.

In Friday’s win over Welling-ton, Bos was the top scorer with 20 points while Beauchamp with 16 rebounds and 16 points had

the double double. Sprangers was also a factor on the boards with 12 rebounds.

The Wildcats did stay with the Crusaders for 23 minutes, but after pulling to within three early in the third period, they were on the short end of a 14-4 Holy Cross run and never recovered.

“It was a three-point game until the second half,” said coach Beauchamp. “But we kind of wore them down after that.”

The Crusaders could welcome back all but two players to the team next season, as only Delani Buchan and Alyssha Bennett will graduate this season.

With all five starters, includ-ing the provincial MVP and three all-stars, the Crusaders will likely begin next season as the overwhelming favourites.

“After Saturday’s game, people were already asking about next season,” said coach Beauchamp. “But we haven’t looked that far ahead, yet.

“This win was a long time coming, it was a very satisfying tournament.”n Like the girls team of a year

ago, the Crusaders boys team can look back on this season as motivation for next.

Ranked number-one after a dominating performance in win-ning the Fraser Valley champi-onship, Holy Cross lost just once in four games at the provincial championship tournament in Kamloops.

But the one loss dropped the tournament favourites to third.

Holy Cross fell 67-54 to the Kelowna Christian Knights Fri-day night. Down by seven points at half-time, Holy Cross was within four at 57-53 with three minutes to play, but were out-scored 10-1 the rest of the way.

Henry Maduabueke was the main offensive weapon for Holy Cross, scoring 29 points and grabbing a dozen rebounds. Grade 10 point guard Taylor Browne added 11 points.

In Saturday’s game against Lambrick Park, Holy Cross reeled off 14 consecutive points in the third quarter to break a 46-46 tie to take control of the game.

Aaron Madaisky paced the Crusaders with 24 points, with Browne adding 20. Stanley Mad-uabueke contributed 13 points.

Browne was voted to the tournament’s first all-star team, while Henry Maduabueke was a second-team choice.

The Maduabueke brothers, Browne and Brandon Pereira are four starters eligible to return next season, giving the Crusad-ers an experienced group of leaders for 2014.

A few new banners will soon be hanging up at South Surrey Arena.

The Surrey Eagles

wrapped up their regular season schedule last weekend with a win and an overtime loss, walloping the Coquitlam Express 8-1 Friday

before losing to the same team Saturday, 3-2 in overtime.

The three points gained clinched the Eagles first-overall spot in the entire BC Hockey League, with a record of 35-13-3-5 (won-lost-overtime loss-tied), two points up on Victoria Grizzlies, the first place team in the Island Divi-sion.

As a result of their first-place finish, the team was awarded the Ron Boileau Memorial Trophy – for having the league’s best regular-season record – and the Cliff McNabb Trophy – for winning the Coastal Conference. Banners will be unveiled on opening night next season.

There is, of course, a bigger trophy for the team to focus on – the Fred Page Cup – when playoffs begin Friday. Surrey is set to face off against the Langley Riv-ermen in a best-of-five series beginning Friday in South Surrey.

On Friday at Coquitlam’s Poirer Sports and Leisure Cen-tre, the Eagles coasted to victory, scoring 39 seconds into the game and leading 5-0 after two periods of play.

Trevor Cameron – who opened the scoring – had a goal and two assists; Brady Shaw, Kevan Killistoff, Drew Best and Michael Stenerson had a goal and one helper apiece,

and Colton Mackie and Craig Wyszomirski also scored.

Adam Tambellini and Jordan Klimek also had two assists each.

The following night in South Surrey, the Birds were burned by former captain Brandon Morley, who scored the game-tying goal in the third period, and then assisted on Coquitlam’s overtime winner, which was scored by Michael Maciag, who finished off a two-on-one play by directing a Morley pass into the net.

Killistoff and Sten-erson were the goals-corers for the Eagles, and goaltender Michael Santaguida stopped 37 shots on net.

In addition to the team trophies, a hand-ful of Eagles scooped individual awards last week, led by Santaguida, who was named to the Coastal Conference’s second all-star team, the BCHL’s all-rookie team, and on Sunday won the league’s top goaltender award after posting a league-best 2.28 goals-against average. He also led all netminders with 29 wins.

Shaw, who led the team in scoring, and defencemen Devon Toews and Wyszomirski were all named first-team all-stars, while Tambellini joined San-taguida to the BCHL’s second all-star team.

KnocKed out of championship conten-tion in their first game, the Fleetwood Park Dragons reeled off three consecutive wins in consolation play to place sixth at the B.C. Senior AAA Girls High School Basketball Tournament at the Langley Events Centre last week.

The Dragons com-pleted their three-game run Saturday afternoon, upending the Steveston-London Sharks 64-53 in overtime. In a game that saw 10 lead changes, and was tied eight times, Fleetwood Park came from four points down in the fourth quarter to force an extra period. They dominated over-time, outscoring the Sharks 14-3.

Shilpa Khanna of the Dragons went six-for-20 from behind the three-point line, finishing the game with 26 points and 12 rebounds. Sim-ran Bir also hit six treats and added another 19 points, while Robeen Jaj scored 10 points and grabbed a dozen rebounds. Reagan Smith led all rebound-ers with 13.

The tournament began with a 69-45 loss to the Argyle Pipers of North Vancouver on Wednesday afternoon. Fleetwood Park trailed 19-10, 32-18 and 54-30 at the period breaks.

Khanna topped Fleetwood scorers with 15 points. Bir and Cyrille Butac added 11 each. Butac was the top rebounder with seven, and also had four assists.

Consolation play began Thursday morn-

ing with a convincing 69-45 victory over the Claremont Spartans of

Victoria. Khanna and Bir were the offensive leaders with 14 points

each, while Simran Grewal netted 10. Smith was the top rebounder

with seven.Nine Dragons got on

the scoreboard Friday morning, lifting the Dragons to a 78-54 triumph over the Prince George Polars. Leading 25-16 after 10 min-

utes, Fleetwood Park extended the advantage to 18 points by halftime and 27 points going into the fourth quarter.

Khanna was again the top scorer with 23 points, shooting .500

(five-for-10) from the three-point line and also getting credited with a game-high five assists.

Also scoring in double digits were Jaj with 17 points, Bir with 12 and Butac with 11.
