Watts takesover policecommittee

Amy ReidNow staffTwitter @amyreid87

SURREYMayor DianneWatts istaking over as interim chair of the policecommittee.The announcement, made at Monday

nights council meeting, caught formerpolice committee chair Coun. BarinderRasode off guard.Im quite surprised, Rasode said after

the meeting.Watts said she will be acting as chair on

an interim basis, while both the police andcommunity safety committees go throughrestructuring.I was going to be bringing some

changes forward to the police committee,as chair, around transparency andopenness and receiving delegationsfrom the public and live-streaming themeetings, Rasode said.So I was quite surprised by the

announcement tonight that I would nolonger be chairing the committee. So, Iwas actually not in a position to make thechanges I had been hoping to.Rasode said she doesnt know why the

mayor made the change.Watts insists the move was not personal,

but rather simply about reorganizing thetwo committees.The public safety portfolio still sits with

Rasode. Shes still chair of the communitysafety committee.Weve just done somereorganizing,Watts said.

In terms of the police committee,in the interim, while we do thereorganization, Im stepping in aschair. I want to make sure that theflow of information is structured in away that it comes through to council inan open format and to the communityas well,Watts said.So theres some administrative

stuff, and I want to be clear here,because this is no reflection on Coun.Rasodes ability. I think shes done agreat job. Im stepping in as interim,just to realign stuff.The changes come after questions

about why the police committeemeeting minutes for the past twoyears are not available on the City ofSurreys website.The citys website shows minutes

from 2002 to 2011, but they stop in2012.I think that in terms of the police

committee, we need to have thosemeetings consistent and regularlyscheduled,Watts said, adding thatthe police committee met five timesin 2012 and four times in 2013.We need monthly meetings in an

open forum making sure that thecommunity and council have thatflow of information, and as standingitems on the agenda, I think we need

to... have items on the communitysafety committee update, mayorstask force update, integrated teamupdate,Watts said.When asked when Rasode would

be put back on as chair, Watts said,Well discuss that at the policecommittee meeting, just seeing whatthat framework looks like.At Monday nights meeting, Watts

formalized the community safetycommittee and added councillorsBarbara Steele, Linda Hepner andBruce Hayne to support the workbeing done.The community safety committee

was originally set up as aninformal working group to reviewrecommendations of the CrimeReduction Strategy.Minutes from that committee will

now go through the police committee.When it comes to why there werent

many police committee meetingsover the past two years, Rasode said,I know the mayors schedule is verychallenging, because she is very busy,but that is one of the reasons wedidnt have as many meetings as weshould have.Rasode said she is committed

to public safety, communityengagement, transparency andopenness with or without titles.We dont get boxed in by what

title we hold because we should stillbe doing the work and asking thetough questions.

WATTS, RASODE DENY RIFTRasode and Watts both maintain

there is not a rift between them, butRasode did say she and the mayorhave a difference in opinion oncommunity public safety.The two Surrey First politicians

have made headlines recently.After Julie Paskalls murder outside

Newton Arena, Rasode broke partylines and went public with commentsthat Surrey did not do enough in theneighbourhood.Less than a week later, Watts said

it was an accident that she liked fourposts on Facebook that slammedRasode, including one that called hera coward.Then, when questions were raised

about why police committee meetingswerent publicly available for the pasttwo years, Watts referred commentsback to Rasode, as she was chair atthe time, until Watts took over asinterim chair of the committee lastMonday.In January 2013, media reports

made note of a rift at city hallfollowing the divide among Surreycouncil following the rejected SouthSurrey casino proposal, but RasodeandWatts both said that was not thecase.

the entrance to the SkyTrain station, andafter the driver returned to the bus, the man

NEWWESTMINSTER SpencerOSoup says he feels no ill will toward thewoman accused of murdering his littlebrother.Beatrice Thomas, 38, is being tried for

second-degree murder in B.C. SupremeCourt in NewWestminster, accusedof stabbing her common-law husbandQuannah OSoup, 37, to death in NorthDelta on July 3, 2011.Im not here to have pitchforks and fire,

Spencer OSoup told the Now outside courtTuesday. For me, its about healing.I dont feel hatred or anything like that,

he said. I feel a lot of compassion. I feelreally sorry for her.OSoup has not been called as a witness

but plans to watch the trial, set for threeweeks, in the hope hell achieve some levelof closure over his brothers death. I wasdevastated when I heard, he recalled.Its the worst news ever.He said his brother and Thomas met in

Edmonton and had been together for abouta year. She followed him to the coast, hesaid. She made her way here with her kids.They rented a tiny half-duplex at 11540

80th Ave. in North Delta, across the streetfrom the entrance to McCloskey elementaryschool.Their relationship was toxic, Spencer

said. It was desperation. The relationship

was up and down.He said his younger brother had five

children of his own in Edmonton. Theeldest is 22, and the youngest are twins, age10.He was a family man,

Spencer said. My brother wastrying to get away, end therelationship and reunite with hiskids.Crown prosecutor Jennifer

Lopes opened the Crowns caseTuesday, with Justice TrevorArmstrong presiding.Thomas, Quannah OSoup,

two guests and Thomasschildren, aged 10 and 15 at thetime, were inside the house when OSoupwas stabbed once in the chest, in the livingroom, shortly after midnight.The children did not see the stabbing, as

they were in their bedroom at the time. Nordid the couples friends, a man and womanwho were in the kitchen.The Crown will establish the necessary

intent for murder by a constellation ofcircumstantial evidence, Lopes told thecourt. This, she said, is based on statementsthe accused made, her actions after thestabbing and the testimony of the twoguests.Lopes said Thomas, OSoup and one

of their guests had been smoking crackcocaine that night.The prosecutor said Thomas told her

female friend she was unhappy withOSoup before she followed him into theliving room.The guests couldnt see what was

happening in that room, Lopes said, butthey overheard Thomas confronting

OSoup, and then there were noises. Acrash. The guests came into the room, andfound OSoup on the floor, Lopes said. Asingle stab wound had punctured his lungand heart. OSoup died at the scene.

The Crowns first witnessTuesday was Sgt. DavidWinderg, who served with DeltaPolice for 30 years before joiningthe Richmond RCMPs forensicsection.Winderg said he arrived at

the house at 2:15 a.m. to findthe couples side surrounded byyellow police tape and OSoupsshirtless body lying on the floor,face up. He took some photos.

He testified that he later took photosof Thomas, at police headquarters. Thefollowing day, police returned to the houseto look for the knife. A firefighter brought aladder, to check the roof.They didnt find a knife outside, he said,

but seized six from inside the tiny house,two of which were slightly bent.Winderg told the court he didnt notice

any injuries on Thomas.Were you looking for injuries? defence

lawyer Victoria Desroches asked him, undercross-examination.Always,Winderg replied. He said he

looked for injuries on the accuseds hands,not beneath her clothing. Desroches saidThomas had been wearing a jacket coveringher from her neck to her knuckles.Windergsaid he looked at her hands, and her legsfrom below her knees to her ankles.Thats it?Desroches asked.Thats it, the officer replied.The trial continues.

NEWTON Surreys newest elementaryschool opened its doors to students for thefirst time Monday, bringing much-neededrelief to nearby Cambridge Elementary.With 16 portables on sight, Cambridge

Elementary had been in dire need of somesort of overcrowding relief for quite sometime and, following a ground breakingceremony two years ago, GoldstoneElementary is the answer to that call.As such, more than 300 students were

present on opening day, eagerly awaiting achance to get into their new classrooms andout of the portables from Cambridge. Thenew school has capacity for 555 studentsand has brought a breath of fresh air to thegrowing community surrounding it.I am really excited about having a brand

new school, said parent Les Saunders, whohas children in grades 1 and 4. The schoolwe were at before, Cambridge, was reallyfull, there were just too many kids there soIm really excited to have a new school that

my kids can go to.According to Saunders, while the teaching

was still very good at Cambridge, the sheerovercrowding made it difficult for studentsto get everything they might need.My son was in a portable in Grade 4,

we really enjoyed it but its just going to benicer to be in a classroom, he said. Gymtime was limited due to the number of kidsthere, so were happy to get into a schoolwhere they can have proper gym time aswell as library time.School board chair ShawnWilson said

the school was very much welcomed in thegrowing school district.With the kind of pressure the district has

been under, is under and will likely continueto be under in terms of space, any newschools like this is just such a big relief forus, he said. There are a lot of communitiesthat arent particularly happy to have theirkids housed in portables all the time.Wilson said that there are also expansions

in the works for other schools, but it stillremains that Surrey is growing faster thanthe students can be housed.

Wewant itall, and now

Give us convenienceor give us death.The San Franciscothink tank/punk band DeadKennedys coined the phrasein the 1980s and its spirithas only multiplied in theensuing decades.We are a society that not

only wants it all, we wantit yesterday. Nothing is toofast for us we demandit. Faster internet speed todownload pictures of cats;quicker pizza deliveriesto clog our arteries morerapidly than the past; up-to-the-second news coverageon self-absorbed celebritiesof questionable talent; notjust regular transit rapidtransit; microwave ovens tocook chemical-laden frozenfood in seconds instead ofhaving to wait for the regularoven to heat up; hundreds oftelevision channels includingeast coast stations so wecan watch programs threehours earlier than stationson the west coast; electronicscompanies releasing newerand flashier versions of theirproducts mere weeks afterthe devices debuted.This obsession for all

things bigger, better andfaster with shinier bellsand louder whistles hasbecome a driving force in

our society and economy.Lord help the companiesthat cant keep pace withthe relentless demands ofconsumers. Often the losersin such matters have asuperb product betamaxvideo tapes, HD-DVD butonce the herd has adopteda path, there are rarely anyoff-ramps.Our societys drive for an

instant hit of satisfactionhas not been lost ongovernments.Most electedgovernments save all of itsbad news moves for thefirst two years of their termin office, followed by twoyears of shovelling moneyoff the back of a truck inthe form of voter friendlyannouncements and megaprojects. The strategy betsthat voters will be so dazzledby the governments recentlargesse, they will forget themisery that befell them justtwo years previous. And its agood bet to make, as electionresults prove.And speaking of betting,

the governments have thatfigured out too. In the 1970s,the federal governmentintroduced a lottery to helpfund the 1976 OlympicGames inMontreal. It wasso successful that smallerlotteries followed. TheWestern Express offered aprize of a quarter milliondollars every two weeks andpeople snapped up the ticketsas fast as the governmentcould print them.That was followed by a

weekly 6/49 scheme witha weekly $1 million prize,which was in turn followedby lotto insanity. Likelaboratory rats incessantlynudging the feeder bar,people plunked downtheir hard-earned cash forscratch and win tickets,thrice weekly lotto draws,pull-tabs in pubs and Kenogames with winners everyhour. Not satisfied withthat stream of revenue, thegovernment turned the cashflow into a river by legalizinga multitude of casinos acrossthe province. Now anybodycan itch their gambling joneswhenever the mood strikesthem. The people demandedit and the governmentresponded to the point nowwhere gambling revenues area key part of revenue.With an ever-expanding

eye for more vice-relatedrevenue, Christy ClarksLiberals made another move

last week with sweepingchanges to the provincialliquor laws. Granted, manyof the changes were longoverdue. Allowing onlybeer sales in certain areas atsporting events and ropingoff sections of a facility for abeer garden were rules thatcreated a monstrous pain inthe posterior for consumersand vendors alike. Same withlimited hours when liquorcan be delivered to hotelguests through room service.But the end to that red

tape wasnt the rules thegeneral public was so happyto hear were coming downthe track. In almost everynews story concerning theforthcoming changes, thebiggest attraction was apromise to allow the saleof alcoholic beveragesin grocery stores andconvenience markets.Does anyone over the

age of 19 currently have a

problem acquiring liquorbetween the hours of 10 a.m.and midnight? In the past, itmay have been an issue. Imold enough to remember pre-Expo 86 when barswere not allowed to be openon Sundays, with off-salesand bootleg beer beingyour only option once thegovernment liquor storesclosed at 6 p.m.Not anymore. In

addition to the networkof government stores, theprovince is now riddledwith private beer and wine and more! stores thatdispense every kind of spiritone could wish for untilmidnight daily.If that kind of accessibility

to alcohol is too limiting foryou, I respectfully suggestyou get professional help.But now thats no longer

good enough for us. Pollsshow we want to do one-stop shopping and purchase

booze along with our frozenmicrowavable meals, fat-saturated snacks, disposablediapers, processed cheeseproducts and organic veggies(because we want to eathealthy, wink wink).Do we need it? No. Do

we want it because otherprovinces and states haveit? You betcha, and thatsall that matters. Howmuchlonger before drive-throughliquor stores are legalized?They have those in Australiaso its probably just a matterof time before they turn uphere. Alcohol and drivingwhat could possibly gowrong?If we have something, we

want more of it faster andif we dont have a productor service, then we have tohave it and the sooner thebetter. Never mind the socialcosts that come with suchmoves. Thats just the priceof convenience, right?

Band trips are invaluableThe Editor,Re: Consult parents on costly trips, the Now, Jan. 30.I am writing in response to Harvinder Sandhus column

about school band trips and the costs of doing so.Firstly, I would like to say that I am a parent of a child

involved in a very busy music program. I have seen theamazing experiences that he has had from working hardwith his fellow bandmates, the value of money learned as heworked to fundraise and the lifelong positive memories ofgoing on the tours themselves.It seems rather hard to believe that there was little

information disclosed to parents about this tour as there areprotocols of information that all teachers must follow whentours of this magnitude are offered. Usually, something thisbig is planned for at least a year in advance.Once a potential tour is selected, the information then

goes out to the families to see if in fact it is a viable option.No band teacher ever wants to see any student left behind,so this family feedback is very important and a big partof the process. Yes the students do get excited, but thetour is not definite yet. Should it turn out the trip is notfeasible, there is a level of disappointment, but this is justanother opportunity to prepare our children for real worldsituations.Though I cannot speak to what fundraising is available

at your school, my son started fundraising in Grade 8,knowing that the program he is involved in does a lot oftravelling in grades 10 to 12. Most music programs aredesigned this way, so I would imagine, unless your son juststepped into band, he has been aware of these large toursfor some time now. I am not denying that it is challengingto afford these trips even when fundraising is done, and youseem to already understand the benefits that can enhancetheir perspective and last a lifetime.I also cannot comment on your destination concern but

I can tell you that our senior tour last year was consideredexotic as well, but the final itinerary showed the timespent fully booked in a learning environment and thereflection showed in all the students upon their return.I thought my son would not care about the museums and

monuments too, but a visit to a major landmark memorialof a world changing event had a massive impact on him forthe better that I did not expect.I am so thankful for my sons experiences in band and

hope you will trust in your sons band teacher as I do inmine. Teachers want the best for our kids and all they needis the benefit of the doubt.

TransLinks greed causes griefThe Editor,It seems to me that TransLink is simply being greedy.

They had an overflowing park and ride and our tax dollarspaid for expanding it, giving TransLink a potential revenueincrease of more than 75 per cent ridership.Instead of embracing this additional revenue and

applying it to the operational costs of the lot, theyproactively put in place a policy to charge for parking atpark and ride locations. Look what happened; not only havethey lost out on the increased ridership but also some oftheir previous customers.In one breath, Mayor DianneWatts says they are not

happy with the parking charge and in another, Coun. TomGill announces forcing it on Surrey residents by putting upNo Parking signage on the surrounding roadways.How about a solution that benefits everyone? Has anyone

counted the cars now parking outside of the lot to see ifthey equal the reduction in the lot? I bet it does not and anumber of people have simply realized it is no longer cost-effective to take transit.

Three big bouquets of roses to the three ladies who found andturned my purse in on Monday, Feb. 3 at the Zellers in SemiahmooMall. Words cannot express my gratitude for saving me theanguish of trying to report and replace my identification andcards. There truly are angels walking among us. Thank you.

Rotten tomatoes to the people who make cold telephone calls (acall to a person you do not know) and when you ask politely, MayI ask who is calling? they hang up. You are rude. Have somecompassion and courtesy.

A truck full of rotten tomatoes to the man in the black truck whowas within inches of running me down as I was walking througha marked crosswalk at the outlet mall on Friday, Jan 24. I had toquickly jump out of the way, as you nearly ran me over when youwere making a left-hand turn toward me. How you couldnt seeme is beyond me. You barely slowed down, let alone stopped tosee if I was OK after I almost became another statistic. Just incase your heart isnt completely black, Ill have you know thatthe person you almost killed was a mother of two amazing kids.Shame on you! Youll eventually face your own karma!

Roses to the mom and two little boys who were having theirdinner by candlelight at the picnic table on the White Rockpromenade. Thank you for the invite to stay and chat... I now wishthat I had.

Rotten tomatoes to those of you who walk away with thecomplimentary newspapers at McDonalds. Bouquets of roses tothose who return them to the rack for others to enjoy.

Roses to the officers in Newton for handing out tickets forsmokers. I would like to invite them to come to the Fraser ValleyCancer Centre they can ticket all the people who smoke outsidethe entrance. Every cancer patient and staff (I am a volunteer)has to walk through this every day, all day. I have never heard ofanyone getting a ticket, we tell people all day to move but theydont. They sit right in front of the no smoking signs. and theyjust dont care. They even get mad and nasty at us for suggestingthey move. We could use the help of those Newton officers.

Rotten tomatoes to all the people who hold up the line inthe supermarket when they take out their phones and phonesomeone instead of paying for their groceries. Or answer theirphones instead of paying for their groceries. Or scream on theircellphones while waiting in line, sharing their call with everyoneelse. How rude can you get? Take your phone and shove it!

A pail full of rotten tomatoes to the man living in a house acrossmy backyard for letting his dog bark all morning. Take the dog outfor a walk instead of leaving it in a yard! Being polite is not goingto harm you. If you cant live with your neighbours, you shouldmove to the woods.

Many roses to our wonderful neighbourhood Now newspaperdelivery person, Andy. It did not go unnoticed that while deliveringyour papers, you were also picking up litter and garbage on yourroute. You rock!

Rotten tomatoes to all you bleeding hearts who say we needall illegal suites in Surrey. I say to you guys that you can haveanything you want, if you legally change the zoning and pay yourtaxes that are owed. It seems everyone thinks other homeownersshould pay for their owed taxes. And they dont feel guilty at allabout breaking the bylaws of the city and laugh at the rest of thehomeowners who are paying the right amount of taxes and dontbreak the rules. Where exactly does crime in Surrey start anyway?Oh, and by the way, how much is owed to Revenue Canada forundeclared income? There should be a $100 finders fee paid bythe City of Surrey for reporting cheaters with illegal suites. Asmall price to pay for millions of dollars in lost revenue.
