Serving Surrey and North Delta

by Jeff Nagel

TRANSLINK IS reviewing its practice of spending signifi cant sums of money on public art to beautify SkyTrain stations aft er criticism of its priorities.

Board chair Nancy Olewiler defends the concept of paying to put art along parts of the transit sys-tem, but says the policy for selecting works and the amounts to be spent is being reconsidered.

TransLink has so far approved spending

$615,000 for three public art installations at Metrotown, Commercial-Broadway, and Main Street-Science World as part of Expo Line SkyTrain station upgrades.

Th e transportation authority is also expected to consider art installations for Surrey Central and Joyce-Collingwood stations.

“We’re very mindful of the need to pinch every penny,” Olewiler said, adding it’s too soon yet to say if the art pieces already commissioned

are too costly or not.“I’m totally in favour of the concept,” she said,

adding she’d incorporate gardens as well if it were up to her.

“As we urbanize we want public spaces to be welcoming and accommodating. People want to see that their city isn’t just turned into giant blocks of concrete.”

Bob Mulholland, regional organizer for the Sensible BC campaign, says that marijuana saved his life while he had cancer and he wants the drug decriminalized.

Sensible BC marijuana campaign comes to Delta

by Adrian MacNair

THE SENSIBLE BC campaign for marijuana reform kicked off Sept. 9 and organizers are scrambling to fi nd volunteers in every riding to help gather enough signatures to get a draft bill on decriminalization accepted by B.C.’s chief electoral offi cer.

North Delta resident Bob Mulholland has taken on the role of regional organizer to help get the ball rolling.

Th e reason he’s so passionate about getting marijuana decriminalized is simple. He says it saved his life.

Mulholland was fi ghting Hodgkins Disease in 2000-2001 and underwent six months of chemotherapy to fi ght the cancer. During that time he was so sick from treatment that he couldn’t keep any food down. Not a single bite.

“I even converted my own mother,” he said, regarding his marijuana use. “She had always been anti-anything to do with that.”

One day Mulholland’s mother visited him aft er chemotherapy with one of his favourite meals – Swiss Chalet chicken – but aft er a few bites

he couldn’t keep the food down.“I told her I’m going to call my friend, she’s going to come over here,

we’re going to go out onto the balcony and smoke a joint and when we come back in we’re going to eat,” he said.

Aft er he returned from smoking he not only downed his entire plate, he went back for seconds and thirds. His mother was sold.

Even prior to his cancer diagnosis, however, Mulholland says he was a recreational marijuana user, using it to relax or unwind at the end of a day. He says those who know about his marijuana use are generally supportive of it, whether for recreational or medicinal use.

Th e Sensible BC campaign may be facing a steep uphill battle. Dana Larsen, the campaign’s fi nancial agent and most recognizable face of marijuana reform along with Jodie and Marc Emery, will have to collect the signatures of at least 10 per cent of registered voters in each of the

province’s 85 ridings.

Pair is stealing expensive jewelry

from women

by Kevin Diakiw

SURREY RCMP has now joined the hunt for a pair of thieves taking jewelry from women over the last month.

On Aug. 13, a heavy-set South Asian or Middle-Eastern woman with gold teeth approached another woman and tried to put some fake jewelry on her.

During the exchange, the large woman stole two bracelets from

the woman being targeted.

Th e thief then got into a car and took off .

Th en, on Aug. 30, what is believed to be the same woman approached an elderly Asian

woman with a similar scheme, and then took her necklace.

Police say the theft s occurred in the Whalley and Newton areas.

And on Aug. 31 in North Delta, a 75-year-old woman was unload-ing groceries from her car when a woman fi tting the above descrip-tion asked her for directions to Surrey Memorial Hospital.

Seemingly grateful for the help, the heavy-set woman handed the Delta senior a necklace.

When she reached for it, the woman grabbed her other hand and pulled a ring with seven one-carat diamonds from her fi nger.

Th e thief fl ed to a waiting vehicle with a man in the driver’s seat, and the pair sped off in the grey, four-door car.

A seven-foot-tall white poodle on Vancouver’s Main Street –with a $100,000 price tag – was partly funded by TransLink.

Spectacular art has made YVR a wonder of the airport world, she noted.

“It makes people much happier waiting for that plane fl ight,” Olewiler said. “And we want people to be happy on SkyTrain too.”

Olewiler, who is also the direc-tor of SFU’s school of public policy, argues public art can serve more purposes than just pleasing the eye.

She said research by crimi-nologists suggests the addition of public art can help make

crime-prone areas not just more welcoming but also safer and more secure.

Olewiler noted municipalities pay for public art all the time.

Th e latest, a $100,000 seven-foot-tall white poodle statue on Vancouver’s Main Street, was partly funded by TransLink and met mixed reviews.

Other prominent pieces include two immense 18-foot bird statues in southeast False Creek. Olympic Village develop-ers covered the $600,000 cost.

TransLink’s art policy review began early this spring in response to ongoing manage-

ment-led eff orts to cut costs, Olewiler said. Art for the initial three stations had already been approved but there’s no word yet on what designs will be used.

Delta Mayor Lois Jackson said she thinks most transit riders would rather see the money spent on improved buses and transit, not public art.

“It really is totally inappropri-ate,” Jackson said. “Th e TransLink people are always crying for money from local government. But on the other hand they’re spending money as if it comes from a bottomless pit.”

Similar to the Stop HST campaign, the Sensible campaign has just 90 days to accomplish this feat, which would require an estimated 400,000 signatures.

If that target can be reached, the chief electoral offi cer will have 42 days to verify the validity of the signatures. If that happens, the bill will go to a legislative committee where members can either table a report recommending it be introduced to the legis-lature, where it could die on the order paper, or refer it back to the chief electoral offi cer

for an initiative vote, as happened with the HST campaign. Th at vote would take place Sept. 27, 2014.

In order for all that to happen, marijuana advocates will need to join the campaign quickly.

“I’m going to be doing everything I can to try and coordinate and delegate to whoever else is in my riding and make sure we get the right number of signatures,” says Mulholland.

The campaign officially got under-way Monday (Sept. 9), with signature collecting and organizers having until

December to reach their goal.According to a Forum Research poll con-

ducted last week, 36 per cent of Canadians prefer legalization, while 34 per cent are in favour of decriminalization. Another 15 per cent felt the laws should be kept as they are.

Marijuana legalization and decriminaliza-tion discussions have reached a fever pitch in the Canadian political climate in recent weeks over federal Liberal leader Justin Trudeau’s public admission of pot smoking and his goal to legalize the substance should he become prime minister in the future.

POLICE BRIEFS

by Kevin Diakiw

A SURREY woman is in serious, but stable condition after a colli-sion with another vehicle on the weekend.

At just after noon on Saturday (Sept. 8), a blue Neon was turning left from Highway 10 onto 177B Street, when a GMC Sierra crashed into it, hitting the passenger side.

Police believe speed may have been a factor, but continue to investigate the accident.

The drivers of both vehicles were unhurt, but a 46-year-old Surrey resident who was a passenger in the Neon was airlifted to hospital with serious injuries to her head and lungs.

Man shot in North Surrey

A MAN is in hospital after being shot on the weekend in Cedar Hills.

The 20-year-old Surrey woman was heading along 101 Avenue near 121 Street last Wednesday (Sept. 4), when four people jumped from a car, beat her, and robbed her.

The driver had honked and the car did a U-turn. A woman got out of the car and told the victim to surrender her cellphone. She then began to beat her and the victim fought back.

Then a man and another woman jumped from the car, and the vic-tim gave up her belongings.

The Surrey Board of Trade’s position statement released last week oppos-ing the legalization of marijuana begs some serious questions.

Th e position has been taken by the board’s 19 elected directors, acting in their mandate as advocates on behalf of the organization’s

membership and the business community at large.Granted, marijuana use has acquired hot-button potency in recent days – par-

ticularly with the Sensible BC campaign now rolling out and following Liberal leader Justin Trudeau’s headline-provoking admission that he, as an MP, has smoked pot.

But the board’s position was endorsed in September 2012, following, appar-ently, extensive research by its Crime and Justice Advocacy Committee.

If the issue is as important to the Surrey business community as the board of trade now insists, why didn’t the results of its committee’s hard work deserve public discussion and distribution long before this?

Also curious is that while many conclusions are off ered in the position state-ment (published on Th e Leader’s Letters page on Th ursday), none of the docu-mented evidence presented to board directors by the committee is cited directly.

Th e board alleges the Surrey business community has many things to fear, should marijuana be legalized. Among them are impaired job performance, loss of production, disruption of workplaces due to the risk of impaired machinery operators, problems with interpersonal relations in the workplace, and poten-tially ballooning costs of absenteeism and health programs.

If this is indeed the case, then it’s in everyone’s interest that the board share the substantiating research with its membership and the general public.

Even though marijuana possession has not yet been legalized for other than medical use – as opposed to, say, alcohol or tobacco, which would seem to share some of these more critical impacts – it should be no news to anyone that pot is already readily available to Surrey workers who choose to use it.

And if its use poses serious negative impacts on businesses in a future legal-ization scenario, these eff ects must be evident already.

Having taken this position, the board is obliged to go further. It could start by outlining the scope of the problem in Surrey workplaces that made this an action item at this time.

Local politicians from across B.C. are in Vancouver Sept. 16-20 to take part in the annual Union of B.C. Mu-nicipalities (UBCM) convention.

Th ere will be trivia reported as news, such as the cost of hotels. Suggestions to license mobil-ity scooters or lower speed limits to 40 km/h, dreamed up in Vancouver Island retirement locales, will be rejected by delegates from the rest of the province.

Serious discussion will revolve around a report by a UBCM executive committee to reshape the fi nancial relationship between the province and local governments. If this proposal gets the support it deserves, Premier Christy Clark’s government will be asked to undo a couple of decades of political meddling in that relationship.

One problem for local governments is that they depend on property tax, a stable source of revenue but one that has no relationship to the property owner’s ability to pay. It tends to load costs onto lower-income groups such as seniors and renters.

Economic growth results mainly in increased corporate and personal income

tax revenues as well as sales taxes, which aren’t shared with local governments.

One key proposal is to return to a system of revenue sharing grants introduced by the Social Credit government in the 1980s. Th ey were funded by one point each from personal and corporate income tax and six per cent of sales, fuel and resource tax reve-nues, thus increasing in years when provincial revenues were strong.

Th e UBCM proposal is to put a share of provincial revenues into an infrastructure bank, to be distributed by the organization on a more stable basis.

Saanich Mayor Frank Leonard, one of the authors of the report, uses a basketball analogy to describe the current system of federal-provincial grants for road and bridge projects. It’s a “jump ball,” where communities have to apply to a fund when it’s off ered and then see who gets it.

Even if a community wins the jump ball, they may fi nd themselves with costs infl ated

by a hot construction market and an arbitrary deadline to get the job done.

Th en there are new regulations imposed by senior governments. Th e most dramatic example these days is a 2020 federal dead-

line for Greater Victoria to construct land-based sewage treatment. Even with federal and provincial cost sharing, this project is going to land heavily on property tax bills, including those of pensioners and poor renters who will have it passed on to them.

Leonard points to another arbitrary system, provincial facilities that pay grants in lieu of property taxes. Saanich is home to the University of Vic-toria, a community of 25,000

people that needs water and sewer ser-vice, as well as police and fi re protection. Saanich gets an annual grant in lieu of property taxes of $120,000 for UVic, enough to cover wages and benefi ts for one cop and maybe some gas money.

Cariboo Regional District chair Al Rich-mond, co-chair of the UBCM committee, is concerned about new water and fl ood pro-tection legislation the province is preparing to impose. His district and others like it have thousands of kilometres of riverfront, with relatively few property owners.

Interior communities also want BC Hydro to pay something for power lines, as is now being done with some aboriginal territories.

Local politicians will be expecting a sympathetic ear from the new version of the B.C. Liberal government. Former Quesnel councillor Coralee Oakes is the new com-munity, sport and cultural development minister, with direct responsibility for local government issues.

And one of the original members of this UBCM committee was former Lang-ley City mayor Peter Fassbender, who is now minister of education.

RE: “EASY MONEY for Surrey,” Let-ters, Th e Leader, Sept. 5.

I too live in a “nice” part of Cloverdale. Actually it was nice, but seven years later, it is now just a congested mess of parking and inconsiderate neighbours.

The letter writer comments that she should be able to rent a spot in front of her home to park. Why can she not park in her garage? That is what a garage is for in this area of Cloverdale (East Clayton) – parking.

The number-one problem is the city not enforcing the suite or multiple suite bylaws and the law that one parking spot must be provided for tenants on the properties in East Clayton.

And so it goes like this: Own-ers fill their basements with tenants, their garages with junk

they don’t use, therefore they have to park their cars on the street – all of them.

And if they have an outdoor spot at the rear of their lot, they usually selfishly use it for them-

selves when it should be for their tenants. Their tenants are left to park on the streets.

People like myself that do not have a suite and that use their two-car garage for what it is for

– parking cars – are the ones left to suffer if we have more than two cars.

If we want to park in front of our home it is a battle to do so in the evenings and on week-ends, which is ridiculous.

The city should allot one park-ing spot in front of each owner’s home to the owner, be it for their own use or for their visitors, just as they do in White Rock.

Tenants of illegal multiple suites or suites that are not fol-lowing the suite parking bylaw should not be allowed to take parking away from owners that pay the appropriate taxes.

The city needs to enforce the suite bylaws and fix the parking mess they have let go on for so long here in East Clayton.

RE: “PITY the bus stops,” Letters, The Leader, Aug. 27.The only part of the new 96 B-Line route that was altered was

dropping the White Rock portion. TransLink claims it doesn’t have the money to run the full route at this time.

As for the stops along King George Boulevard, these were selected as they are transfer points to other bus routes. Not all the stops along King George Boulevard are designed for the 60-foot bus.

Maybe stops will be added in the future, but I would prefer to see the extension to White Rock or at least the South Surrey park-and-ride first. That should be the priority.

Jon Argitos, bus driver

TransLinkdecisions

make senseTHE RECENT letter claiming it would take 91 years to recoup the cost for the SkyTrain fare gates has a lot of inconsistencies.

First, the $171-million capital cost is for both the fare gates and the system-wide Compass smart card system, not the fare gates exclusively.

Secondly, the numbers do add up. Th ere are many monetary benefi ts to the system aside from just reducing fare evasion, which are explained in the business case document for Compass and the fare gates. You can fi nd this in the docu-ment library on TransLink’s website or through a link on my blog at darylvsworld.wordpress.com.

Th irdly, with $70 million of the project funding coming from senior levels of government, it’s hard to believe that the project could have moved forward at all if there was no business case and no return for the money.

Many of the complaints on Metro Vancouver transit decisions I have seen have been based on large mis-interpretations. If more people did their research on Metro Vancouver’s transit “issues” before complaining, they would see that a lot of recent decisions do make sense.

I’m looking forward to a better and more reliable transit system once the Compass card system is in full swing.

Daryl Dela Cruz

THE DE-FUNDING of education in B.C. usu-ally doesn’t get much attention until a crisis threatens to shut down the schools. Then suddenly, everyone takes notice.

This time it’s the support workers who, if negotiations fail, will soon be in a position to strike.

These folks – secretaries, custodians, maintenance technicians and educational assistants – do work of immense value, yet often get the least appreciation.

In my 33 years of teaching, I relied on these people constantly, and was over-whelmed by their professionalism, generosity

and adaptability, often in face of very dif-ficult circumstances.

Educational assistants, for example, are required to be experts in all the various bar-riers to learning which students face. They also must be conversant with all the school subjects and be able to provide discreet assistance to students inside and outside of the classroom.

They have to do all this within the educational structure of the individual teacher. Oh, and their students often have behavioural, emotional or medicals issues to go along with their learning difficulties.

Needless to say, it’s a very tough job. And the pay, relative to the required skill level, is absurdly low. “Full-time” is considered to be 25 hours a week. As a result, a “full-time” educational assistant will make about $20,000 a year. Could you get by on that?

The B.C. government has allowed educa-tion funding to slip far below the national average. By doing so, they are especially hurting the most vulnerable children, as well as the workers at the bottom of the ladder.

RE: “POT IS bad for business,” Let-ters, Th e Leader, Sept. 5.

Your entire letter, Ms. Huberman, is directed towards those who would use marijuana at work. But how will legalization cause people to want to be impaired at work?

To show up at my construc-tion site impaired would result in immediate removal from site, loss of employment, and possible criminal charges. Would Ms. Huberman sug-gest that responsible, contributing members of society will suddenly and immediately lose all self-control and risk their livelihoods by getting stoned before work if marijuana was legal to buy in stores like alcohol?

According to Ms. Huberman’s ridiculously fl awed logic, people whoenjoy drinking alcohol recreationally will not have enough discretion to stay sober for work. I mean, if it’s legal then we should be able to drink at work, right?

Obviously, a total meltdown of western civilization will follow legalization of marijuana. Give me a break. Th is letter was a joke, right?

Th ankfully, people are not as dumb as you think. Your perception of reality, Ms. Huberman, is disturb-ingly naive and ignorant of all the facts.

THE INTRODUCTION of the B-line is blissful for Surrey commuters.

Surrey is one of the rapidly grow-ing cities in the region that needs more modern links to meet with transportation demand.

If TransLink off ers easy, aff ord-able, comfortable and reliable service, they will defi nitely attract more ridership and help to maintain a green environment.

Th e 96 B-line on King George Boulevard is providing express service to people to reach SkyTrain during peak hours. If a similar service is allocated on other major routes, then passengers can reach their destination without wasting valuable time.

Finding bliss on

the B-line

by Jeff Nagel

TRANSLINK BOARD chair Nancy Olewiler says there’s no delay in the expected launch of transit fare gates and Compass cards, but she confi rmed the project will go over its $171-mil-lion budget.

Offi cials aren’t yet saying how big the cost overrun will be.

“It’s going to be a bit higher than initially esti-mated,” Olewiler said.

“Th ere are some addi-tional costs that were not foreseen at the beginning of the project. But it’s to make the system work and these things weren’t known by us or the sup-plier at the time.”

Operating costs have escalated on some fronts, she said, including provision of customer information.

Mike Madill, Trans-Link vice-president of enterprise initiatives, wouldn’t disclose details, saying only the costs of the project are currently being examined as part of a recurring review and more information will be available in a few weeks.

“I wouldn’t even say overrun at this point in time,” Madill said.

“I would say we’re reviewing the budget and we don’t yet know what that review will show us as to whether or not there’s any adjustment to the budget required.”

He wouldn’t say what fi nal project cost estimate was last provided to TransLink’s board.

Madill did note the original budget fi gure was in 2009 dollars and that some escalation by 2013 isn’t unexpected.

Both Madill and Olewiler rejected accusa-tions that TransLink has failed to deliver the project on time because the fare gates – labelled “Operational in Fall 2013” – won’t actually be closed and holding back would-be fare evaders until well into 2014.

Th ey say the gates are operational now – although not yet fl ap-ping – and Compass cards are being tested in advance of the smart card being made avail-able to the general public in the months ahead.

Madill said Compass cards will be made available to small limited groups of passengers starting in late fall, with more being added in stages through the winter and into the spring of 2014, by which time

anyone should be able to get one.

Th e closing of the gates so people can no longer simply walk through and must tap their cards for access should happen sometime in 2014, he said, but timelines may shift depending on what’s learned in passenger beta tests.

“We haven’t changed our plan,” he said, adding the strategy has always been to begin with test-

ing and then use a care-fully measured rollout to work out bugs and ensure riders have lots of time to adapt to the changes.

Regular tickets and passes will continue to work in parallel with the Compass cards for months before old fare types are phased out and the gates lock.

“I think it’s semantics,” Olewiler said. “I don’t view it as a delay. I view this as a logical way to bring in a very large IT

and behavioural change project. We’re going to take the time to get it right.”

Asked if TransLink will collect more net fare revenue from passengers by reducing prepaid fare discounts – Compass card users will get just a 14-per-cent discount versus cash fares instead of the more than 20 per cent now provided to FareSaver ticket buyers – Olewiler said that’s not the aim.

“It was not the overall intent to raise prices,” she said, adding the system of discounts had to be streamlined and simpli-fi ed.

“Some will pay more, some won’t pay more and some will pay less.”

FareSavers are to be eliminated Jan. 1, 2014 but there are concerns that if TransLink sticks to that timeline some riders may have to pay full fare while they wait to get Compass cards.

Provincial and federal government contribu-tions cover about $70 million of the budgeted cost of the faregates and smart card system.

TransLink originally opposed installing fare-gates, arguing revenue recouped from fare evad-ers – up to $7 million a year – would never cover the costs.

But the system was mandated by then-Trans-portation Minister Kevin Falcon and TransLink planners decided smart card payments would bring many advantages.

Compass cards are over budget

TransLink says some cost escalation isn’t unexpected8 Surrey/North Delta Leader Tuesday, September 10, 2013

More information on the fi nal cost of the transit authority’s new Compass card program is expected in a few weeks, says TransLink Vice-President Mike Madill.

SHE PLANNED her event on Sept. 11 intention-ally.

Though it’s the day the world will forever link with terrorist attacks in the U.S. that killed nearly 3,000 people, Kamal Dhillon wanted to also draw attention to the domestic violence tak-ing place daily in communities everywhere.

“What about the terrorists in our own lives, in our own homes, in our own beds?” asked the Surrey author and speaker. “I’m bringing up those ones that we don’t even think of who are caus-ing the war in our lives.”

Dhillon is the author of Black and Blue Sari, a book detailing her years living with a brutally abusive husband, and her subse-quent escape and survival. For the past few years she has spoken throughout Canada and the U.S.

She has organized An Eve-ning to Stand United in Surrey this week. The evening, which includes dinner, entertainment by Juno nominee Kelita, and a silent auction, will serve as a fundraiser for Kamal’s ongoing anti-domestic abuse efforts.

She hopes the funds generated will help her develop a product that victimized women can hide in their shoe that has phone numbers for crisis lines and transition homes.

“I’ve found if I give my card to women, they reluctantly take it because they know that if their abuser goes through their wallet or purse – which happens much of the time – they could be caught,” explained Dhillon.

“So they don’t take materials to put in their

purse because it’s not safe for them.”Something in a shoe, constructed of a mate-

rial more durable than paper, but would allow women to discretely hide potentially life-saving contact information.

She also hopes to raise funds so that if she’s invited to speak and a group is unable to fund her travel, she’s still able to attend and spread

her message.“I don’t want to lose out

because (an organization) can’t pay,” Dhillon said. “What if there’s a woman who really needs to hear it and doesn’t feel like anybody cares? That’s when I go in and say ‘look at my injuries, look what I’ve been through.’ I understand and can give them hope.”

Dhillon was assaulted for years by her husband, his strikes to her face injuring her jaw so badly she is scheduled to have her 10th surgery – a jaw prosthetic replacement – next month.

But through it all, even the operations, she stays in touch with those needing guidance.

“I will never stop. I think you need to give them hope that you (abuse victims) are not alone.

You will make it.”

A Evening to Stand United – Empowering Families & Communities to End Violence, takes place at Eaglequest - Coyote Creek, 7778 152 St. It is open to men and women. Doors open at 6 p.m. Tickets ($50 apiece or a table of eight for $350) are available online at www.blackandbluesari.com, by calling 604-866-1385 or emailing [email protected]

ON SEPT. 11, 1993, Sur-rey offi cially became a city, so this year, it marks its 20th birthday.

Coun. Linda Hepner was a city staff er in 1993, and helped organize the celebration when Surrey became a city.

One of the biggest changes she has seen over the years has been the huge infl ux of young people.

“We have become the city of choice for young families,” Hepner said Th ursday. “We have more people under the age of 19 than anywhere

else in the province. Th at’s big.”

Th at fact shapes how the city approaches some of its recreational programs, she said.

Development in Sur-rey has also boomed in recent decades. In the 1990s, the municipality’s population was poised to

top 300,000. Since then, Surrey has expanded rapidly, almost doubling its population.

Today, Surrey’s popu-lation tops 500,000, and the city has experienced several record-breaking years of growth, par-ticularly in the residential sector.

Th e formation of six distinct town centres – Fleetwood, Guildford, Newton, Cloverdale, South Surrey, and Whalley (now more commonly known as City Centre) – was recognized in the Offi cial Community Plan in the early 1990s. Th ese areas have become commercialhubs in Surrey.

Th e year aft er Sur-rey’s fi rst birthday, the SkyTrain rolled into town, bringing with it the promise of better con-nections with Vancouver and other regional cities.

Moving forward, Hep-ner said Surrey needs to be more cognizant of its growing refugee popula-tion.

Th at means having services in place to help new Canadians and off ering eff ective multi-cultural programs.

Th e City of Surrey had planned to celebrate the city’s birthday at its new city hall in City Centre. However, con-struction on the build-ing is running about a month behind, so Hep-ner said a celebration will happen at the hall when it’s complete.

Over the course of this week, the city will be hosting a contest on its website at www.sur-rey.ca. Archival photo-graphs from across the city will be posted, and the public is encouraged to log on and guess where the locations are today.

Th ose who guess correctly will have the chance to win prizes.

AN IMPROVING run of sockeye salmon return-ing to the Fraser River has prompted fi shery managers to reopen fi shing for other salmon species that had been closed to guard against any bycatch of sockeye.

Pacifi c Salmon Com-mission offi cials now estimate around four million sockeye are on track to return. Th at’s still below a pre-season forecast of 4.7 million, but it’s much better than a few weeks ago, when salmon watchers feared just two million would return.

Recreational angling for chinook, pink and chum salmon is now allowed below Mission, as well as pink and chum fi shing above Mission.

First Nations also have the go-ahead to fi sh for chinook, chum and pink on the lower Fraser for food, social and ceremonial pur-poses. A limited com-mercial fi shery for pinks is also expected.

Water temperatures have cooled somewhat from dangerously high levels earlier in the summer but fi shery managers still expect 70 per cent of returning sockeye will die on their journey upriver to the spawning grounds.

As a result, all of the fi sheries are directed to release any sockeye that are caught.

“We are getting early reports of fi sh arriving at the spawning grounds in good condition,” said Jeff Grout, DFO regional resource manager.

Th e pink run has also been upgraded, from 14 million to an estimated 16 million fi sh, and that number is expected to

climb further.Fishery offi cers have

been sweeping the river for sockeye poachers.

So far 10 boats and 66 nets have been seized with 29 investigations underway that are expected to lead to charges.

Fraser salmon fi shing resumesRun size boosted to 4 million;

16 million pinks expected


Fisheries offi cer Jeff Quigley checks the licence of fi sherman James Jarder, who was fi shing for for pink salmon at Brownsville Bar on the Fraser River in North Surrey on Thursday.

THE SURREY Eagles started their BC Hockey League (BCHL) season with a win, but finished the Bauer BCHL Showcase weekend with a split of their two games against Interior Divi-sion opponents in Chilliwack.

The Eagles topped the West Kelowna Warriors 3-0 Friday night at the Prospera Centre, then fell 7-3 to the Vernon Vipers Saturday afternoon.

All 16 BCHL teams were in Chilliwack for the Showcase week-end, each playing two games over three days in front of college and professional scouts.

Special teams and the goaltending of Vic-tor Adamo earned the Eagles their victory against West Kelowna.

The Warriors had a 40-24 shots on goal advantage, but couldn’t put a puck past the 20 year-old Toronto native who earned the first shutout of the young BCHL season.

Joseph Drapluk netted the first Eagles goal while on the powerplay midway through the first period. The Warriors dominated play in the second frame, out-shooting Surrey 19-7, but fell further behind. Zane Schartz made it 2-0 for the Eagles four minutes into the period.

Surrey native Colton

Mackie, in his fourth season in an Eagles uniform, tallied his team’s second pow-erplay goal with nine minutes to play in the game.

The Eagles were two-for-six with the man advantage, and killed off all four shorthanded situa-tions.

Surrey ran out of gas Saturday afternoon, allowing four goals in the final 10 minutes of play in a 7-3 loss to the Vernon Vipers.

Vernon outshot Surrey 14-6 over the first 20 minutes, but led only 1-0 at the first intermission.

Surrey took over in the second period, and with an 18-6 advan-tage in shots on goal,

pulled even with the Vipers.

Braeden Russell tied the score 1-1, then, after former Eagle Demico Hannoun put Vernon back in front, Jonah Renouf scored on an Eagles power play to knot the score 2-2 after 40 minutes.

Again the Vipers took the lead early in the third period, but just 55 seconds later, Russell scored from Renouf to tie the game at three goals each.

Vernon replied with four goals in the last half of the third period. Trailing 5-3 with two minutes to play, the Eagles pulled netminder Bo Didur for a sixth skater, but the Vipers scored into the open net.

They added another in the final minute of play.

Didur, a 16-year-old from West Vancouver, stopped 27 of the 33 shots he faced.

Surrey was one-for-four with the man advantage, while the Vipers were one-for-two on the powerplay.

The Eagles will play twice at home against Mainland Division rivals next weekend. The Langley River-men visit the South Surrey Arena at 7 p.m. Friday night, while the Coquitlam Express are the visitors Sunday afternoon at 4 p.m.

Langley won both of their games on the Showcase weekend, while Coquitlam won one and lost one.

BIG DEAL!

SAVE BIG!Ending Homelessness Is Possible

When Michael woke, all he could see were blurry outlines of tubes protruding from his bruised and broken body. It was 2008, and Michael, then 59, had no idea why he was there. The last thing he remembered was riding his motorcycle down the interstate.

A horse conditioner in the U.S., Michael had a comfortable life and retirement savings. All that changed when a horse kicked him in the head. Four days later, he blacked out on the highway from a severe concussion and had a devastating accident. Without insurance, his hospital bills bankrupted him.

Three years later, Michael relocated to Surrey to try working at the racetrack. But his body was too broken, and he soon faced homelessness.

He went to the Gateway Shelter run by Keys: Housing and Health Solutions, where he could sleep and have a meal. Keys offered Michael subsidized housing at Peterson Place and has been supporting him in numerous ways since. Michael is grateful for the support and care, and gives back by helping with the building’s garden.

Organizations such as Keys, a non-profit charity in North Surrey, are supported by the Surrey Homelessness and Housing Society. Visit www.surreyhomeless.ca for more stories on how Ending Homelessness Is Possible.
