Whiff of victory for B.C. marijuana reformers Washington votes 55% in favour of legalizing pot

by Jeff Nagel

PAINTING COURTESY CFB PETAWAWA MILITARY MUSEUMS

The Battle of Moreuil Wood, which took place on March 30, 1918 in France, was one of the final acts of Canadian cavalry.

A gallop into history A Surrey author tells the story of his father, a Canadian cavalryman during the First World War

“Poor bastard. He looked down at his own legs, splayed out in front of him, at Toby, lying still, at the other huddled shapes on the ground, men and horses.

Poor bastards.”

– Excerpt from Soldier of the Horse

by Boaz Joseph ROBERT MACKAY describes his partners at a Cloverdale law firm as understanding when he told them he was heading for greener pastures in 2007.

The pastures he was thinking of, an area of partly wooded French farmland, weren’t for retirement, however.

He was eyeing a spot just east of the town of Moreuil on the River Avre, about 20 kilometres south of Amiens.

Robert Mackay’s first book was published in 2011.

B.C. POT reform advocates are celebrating Washington State’s historic vote Tuesday to legalize and tax marijuana, saying it adds momentum to their campaign for change here.

Initiative 502 passed with 55 per cent of voters in favour, making Washington the first U.S. state to legalize possession of up to an ounce of marijuana by adults, along with Colorado, where a similar vote also passed.

“Tell everyone I’m elated – it’s the biggest day of our movement ever,” Marc Emery, B.C.’s imprisoned Prince of Pot, tweeted from his U.S. jail cell.

His wife Jodie Emery celebrated the win in Seattle – where her husband was indicted for selling pot seeds – with Washington campaigners, including travel guru Rick Steves and the U.S. prosecutor-turned-reformer who put Marc behind bars.

Developer wants to axe 533 trees Council postpones vote on proposal for South Surrey

by Kevin Diakiw The CiTy of Surrey has postponed a vote on a proposed

EVAN SEAL / THE LEADER

A developer wants to build 64 family homes on halfacre lots on 32 Avenue near 168 Street.

housing development in South Surrey that would require cutting down 533 trees – most of which are considered “high value.”

A developer went before council Monday (Nov. 5) seeking an amendment to the North Grandview Heights Neighbourhood Community Plan (NCP) to develop a 29.2-acre parcel of property on 32 Avenue near 168 Street to include 64 family homes on half-acre lots.

A city staff report to council indicates 533 trees on the site would come down, 257 of which are alder or cottonwood (often referred to as “scrub” trees because they don’t survive development well).

The developer had planned to save 45 of 321 “higher

value” trees, a retention ratio of 14 per cent.

“Given the steep slopes on the property, and the necessary grading to achieve an acceptable subdivision design layout, on-site tree retention at this rate is considered reasonable in the context of the existing NCP designation,” the report to council states.

The trees slated to come down include Western red cedar (153), big leaf maple (65), Douglas fir (27), paper birch (14) and others. The builder planned to plant four or five trees on each lot – a total of 436 trees – 40 per cent of which would be native conifers. The bylaw requires 809 be planted, so the developer would pay cash in lieu.

“Staff anticipates there will be a significant visual impact associated with the clearing and development of this site,” the report to council states.

The proposal was sent back to staff Monday for review.

Marijuana: Still federally illegal in U.S. From page 1

But U.S. authorities said their enforcement of national drug laws is unchanged – marijuana remains federally illegal – and it’s unclear how the state can carry out its plan to license marijuana farming and tax its sale in stores without federal consent.

Negotiations are expected in a one-year rule-making period before pot there could be legally farmed or sold.

Observers here say the political implications are huge for the debate on drug policy reform in B.C., even if Washington’s legalization plan is blocked.

“American voters are now ahead of Canadian governments on the cannabis file,” said former B.C. Attorney General Geoff Plant, a high-profile reformer with the Stop the Violence coalition. “It helps advance the argument for legalization here in B.C.” Rob Gordon, director of SFU’s school of criminology, says it could spur more legalization drives if “the sky doesn’t fall” and Washington starts reaping a windfall of weed revenue.

“The dominoes could start toppling,” he said.

Washington estimates it would collect $560 million in the first year from a 25-percent tax on the sale of licensed, regulated marijuana through authorized stores.

“Whether or not their federal government is going to tolerate this remains to be seen,” Gordon said.

If pot is legally sold in Washington, Gordon expects a partial collapse of B.C.’s estimated $7-billion-a-year illegal pot industry as growers relocate their operations south of the border to avoid the need to smuggle.

B.C. decriminalization initiative readied “It’s a huge step forward,” said B.C. marijuana activist Dana Larsen, who heads the Sensible BC campaign to force a provincial referendum on pot decriminalization using the Recall and Initiative Act. As with the campaign to defeat the HST, volunteers will have 90 days in the fall of 2014 to get thousands of signatures from every riding of the province to trigger a referendum. If it passes, the legislature would vote on Larsen’s proposed Sensible Policing Act, which would order an end to police enforcement of simple cannabis possession.

Premier Christy Clark and NDP leader Adrian Dix both say marijuana reform is up to the federal government and the prime minister has said the Conservatives won’t loosen Canada’s drug laws.

But Larsen argues Ottawa could, if pressured enough, exempt B.C. from federal narcotics laws to enable a regulated and taxed marijuana experiment here.

He said legal pot in Washington helps end the argument that the U.S. may “retaliate or freak out” if B.C. reforms its drug laws.

Plant said he prefers full marijuana legalization, rather than the half-step of decriminalization, which doesn’t allow regulation and taxation.

“Full legalization removes the economic incentive Dana Larsen for the illegal manufacture and distribution,” Plant said, adding authorized retail sales should largely end organized crime’s role.

The Washington State vote comes two months after B.C. civic leaders voted to urge the province to decriminalize marijuana and explore methods to regulate and tax it.

What Washington’s initiative does: • Allows possession of up to one ounce of marijuana for adults over 21 effective Dec. 6. The state law change would be in conflict with federal drug laws.

• Removes state law prohibitions against producing, processing and selling marijuana, subject to licensing and regulation. Further details would be worked out over the next year, during which time the state would negotiate with federal authorities.

• Imposes 25-per-cent taxes on wholesale and retail sale of pot, with most revenue going to health care, drug treatment and education.

• Directs state to amend impaired driving laws to include maximum THC levels.

Some pundits argue the full legalization of marijuana removes the economic incentive to illegally manufacture and distribute the drug, thereby eliminating organized crime’s role in the pot trade.

War Amps preserving veterans’ legacies Revealing i am a member of The War Amps Operation

Legacy, which consists of young members and graduates of the Child Amputee (CHAMP) Program who are dedicated to preserving and commemorating Canada’s military heritage by teaching younger generations about our nation’s wartime history.

I have had the privilege to learn about Canada’s military heritage and also know what it is like to live without a limb – a strong bond

that I share with war amputee veterans.

CHAMP was started by war amputee veterans and I want to give back to those who have given me so much.

It’s important to remember our veterans for countless reasons.

The individuals that left their families, homes and lives behind to fight for us and our country deserve more than just remembrance.

We should be thankful every day for what

they went through for us.

The bravery, strength and courage it took is not something easily found.

I give all my respect to our war veterans.

I encourage all of you to learn more about Canada’s history by means of The War Amps Military Heritage Series documentaries, which can be ordered at www.waramps.ca

A Sikh place in remembrance

remembrance day is a time to

reflect back and pay respect to those that gave their lives for our freedom and way of life.

Unfortunately, for the most part, people only think about the two World Wars as European wars when they think of Remembrance Day. The reality is that these wars were fought in many countries.

In fighting took place from Hawaii to Burma, China to Africa.

India, being a part of the British Empire, made a substantial contribution to places far from home and to people they did not know.

Even though they were fighting for the freedom of their own nation from the British, they found it necessary and more urgent to fight for the freedom of the world.

Their own freedom would have to wait, not once, but twice.

As a capt. ishar Singh, result, the first Sikh more than recipient of the 83,000 Sikh Victoria cross. soldiers died and more than 135,000 were wounded in battle in both World Wars – particularly notable since the Sikh population was quite small, less than two per cent of the population of India.

Sikh soldiers incurred heavy losses on the Western Front in the First World War. Many regiments were nearly wiped out. During the Battle of Neuve Chapelle in 1915,

Sikh soldiers make camp in italy during the first World War. more than 83,000 Sikhs were killed in action with allied forces in both World Wars. the Sikh regiments stationed there lost 80 per cent of their men.

Fourteen military crosses were awarded for “conspicuous gallantry” to Sikhs.

A Sikh soldier wrote a letter back to Punjab describing the horrific situation: “Thousands and hundreds of thousands of soldiers have lost their lives. If you go on the field of battle you will see corpses piled upon corpses, so that there is no place to put hand or foot. Men have died from the stench. No one has any hope of

survival, for back to Punjab will go only those who have lost a leg or an arm or an eye. The whole world has been brought to destruction.”

British Army General Sir Frank Messervy wrote: “Finally, we that live on can never forget those comrades who, in giving their lives gave so much that is great to the story of the Sikh Regiment. No living glory can transcend that of their supreme sacrifice. May they rest in peace. In the last two World Wars…they died or were wounded for the freedom of Britain and the

world, enduring shell fire with no other protection but the turban, the symbol of their faith.”

Remembrance Day is a time for all to pay respect to their fallen heroes. For without them, the world would be a different place today.

Without their sacrifice, we would not cherish the freedom and liberty that we so enjoy, regardless of origin or country of residence.

Increase finding for funerals and burials The facT ThaT canadian funeral directors

are obliged to cover the costs of funerals for Canada’s most impoverished war veterans bears witness to the lack of recognition for the immeasurable debt of gratitude Canadians owe all veterans.

During this time of remembrance, perhaps it is time to hold the government of Canada accountable and revisit this issue which has been of considerable importance for The Royal Canadian Legion for several years.

In fact, during our Dominion Convention held in Winnipeg in 2010, The Royal Canadian Legion passed a resolution calling on the Minister of Veterans Affairs Canada to increase the Veterans Funeral and Burial Program services allowable from $3,600 to an equivalent level already established of $12,700 for the Canadian Forces and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

Moreover, these funds should be made available, without complex eligibility requirements,

to all veterans who have insufficient financial means.

Veterans were willing to give their lives for this country; honouring them properly in the last final act is the least the country can do for them.

Lest we forget.

Gordon Moore Dominion President The Royal Canadian Legion

Missing Comrades, a letter from 1943

in a darkened room there is

a small table with a single chair.

Spread upon the table is a white tablecloth, a flower vase, a glass and a small plate.

A framed picture, although faded by time, shows a large aircraft and several young airmen as they prepare for their next mission.

There is an envelope, edged in black, lying next to the picture.

It is postmarked 1943.

Hanging on the wall, above the table, is a printed explanation of the exhibit titled, Missing Comrades: Clad eternally in air force blue, they are our brothers and sisters who are unable to return to those they love.

They are the airmen and airwomen of Canada who made the ultimate sacrifice in defence of freedom and whose earthly remains lie in cemeteries, on battlefields and in countless places known only to God. This table is set for one, is our way, the air force way, of honouring the memory and sacrifices of our comrades.

Its small stature illustrates the frailty of our chosen profession.

The cloth is white, symbolizing the purity of our missing comrades’ motives when answering the call to duty.

The single rose reminds us of the life of each and of their loved ones and friends who kept the faith.

The vase is tied with a red ribbon.

Symbol of our continued determination to remember our missing comrades.

The slice of lemon is to remind us of the bitter fate that befell our missing comrades.

A pinch of salt symbolizes the tears their families and loved ones have shed.

The glass is inverted to symbolize their absence.

The waiting chair is not really empty; though not with us in body, they are present in spirit.

John Fefchak RCAF, CAF Chief Warrant Officer, retired

MORE LETTERS

A great read!

After A summer vacation in northern Alberta,

George Gunn’s son Ron came to visit his parents.

George, 92, and his wife May, 90, are residents at Elim Village in Surrey and looked forward to hearing about their son’s trip.

Ron walked through the door and said, “Dad, I’ve brought something for you.”

Without batting an eye, George replied, “You’ve got my stick. I can die happy now.”

George had enlisted with the Edmonton 49th Regiment at the beginning of the Second World War and was sent to Normandy shortly before D-Day. He fought throughout northwest Europe but a serious injury brought him to England for surgery and convalescence.

When he returned from the war, Sgt. George Gunn was awarded a special silver-tipped baton. This particular award was a reflection of his outstanding war record and his ranking as sergeant.

George had married May of 1942 and upon returning from the war, built a house in Grand Prairie, Alberta. The treasured baton was displayed for all to enjoy. At some point, someone had asked to “borrow” the baton, but no one could remember if the baton had ever been returned. Sadly, George accepted this loss and life continued on.

During Ron’s vacation this past summer, he decided to drive by the old house to see if it was still there. While parked out front, his wife encouraged him to knock at the door and ask the owner if they would mind if they had a look around the old place and take some pictures for his parents. The baton was not even considered at this point.

Ron knocked at the door and once the owner confirmed that his parents had indeed built the house, she agreed to let him in. She told him that she had something she wanted to show him.

She explained that during a recent renovation of the house, the baton was discovered in the basement, lodged behind the original furnace. The baton had been stuffed in the back of a closet on the top level of the house and fell through the floor boards landing behind the furnace where it stayed for 46 years.

Ron was ecstatic and could hardly wait to bring it home to his dad.

When he handed the baton to his dad, George immediately unscrewed the silver tip and pulled out a paper verifying that the baton was indeed presented to Sgt. George Gunn in recognition for his special services during the war.

George and his wife live in Elim Village, a Christian retirement community in Surrey that offers a full range of housing and care options. George lives in the Emerald assisted living building and his wife May lives in the Harrison residential care building.

Because of the proximity, George is able to walk to visit his wife on a daily basis.

This December, they will celebrate their 70th wedding anniversary. George is proud to have served his country and equally proud to still fit into his uniform jacket.

Opponents speak out against proposed Surrey complex

by Dan Ferguson OppOnents Of a proposed casino in South Surrey outnumbered supporters by a 20:1 ratio at a Sunday afternoon public forum at the Semiahmoo Fish and Game Club.

About 80 people attended the event organized by Susan Keeping, the BC NDP candidate for the election next spring.

When one questioner asked how many casino supporters were in the audience, only four raised their hands.

One of them was Cliff Annable, the executive director of the South Surrey and White Rock Chamber of Commerce.

Annable said the local business community is “totally supportive” of the proposed $100-million casino, hotel and convention centre complex at 10 Avenue and 168 Street.

Annable said that among other benefits, the facility would give local sporting and charitable groups a place to accommodate large turnouts for fundraisers, instead of having them go outside of the area.

“We could all use a bigger venue,” Annable said. “They’re currently not available.”

Annable’s was a minority view.

Most speakers were like local resident Martin Cooper, who predicted the project would ruin

the character of the area.

“Why are you intent on destroying our rural community of South Surrey?” he demanded.

The question was directed at two representatives of the company hoping to build the casino, who both spoke at the event.

Gateway Casinos and Entertainment community liaison Tanya Gabara described the proposed complex as a “world-class” facility more than once during her presentation. She said Surrey has a “sorely underserved” gaming and entertainment market.

Gateway general counsel James Chen defended the project as a boost to the local economy that will bring jobs and other long-term benefits.

“We create jobs and we pay taxes,” he said. “And we pay taxes to all three levels of government.”

According to Gateway and BC Lottery Corporation (BCLC) projections, the complex could produce $6 million in revenues annually for Surrey alone.

Preliminary designs call for a landscaped complex that includes a 60,000-sq.-ft. gaming floor, an 800-seat theatre, a 27,000-sq.-ft. convention and entertainment zone, a 200-room, four-star hotel, four restaurants and three lounges.

The $100-million facility would occupy 18 acres of a 25-acre parcel at 10 Avenue and 168 Street.

BCLC has suggested the complex, if approved by the city, could be open as soon as late 2014.

At the Sunday forum, several critics said the impact of the project on local residents has not been properly assessed.

Grant Laporte said he isn’t looking forward to spending his retirement next to “24 hours of glitz and lights and traffic and noise.”

Terry McNeice, of the South Surrey Ratepayers Association, said residents were kept in the dark about the plans until recently.

“There has been no transparency, no communication,” McNeice said. “We are at the 11th hour. It’s criminal.”

Chen disputed this, saying the company has done everything it can to let people know.

“We’re not trying to hide anything from anybody,” Chen said.

“We’re trying to be as transparent as possible.”

In response to a questioner who worried about increased crime, Chen said statistics from other Gateway casinos show police activity is, if anything, low.

While the back and forth continued, volunteers listed the arguments on large sheets of paper taped to the wall behind the podium. By the end of the twohour meeting, there were two-anda-half pages of “pro” arguments and eight pages of “con.”

of fly ash taken from the scrubbers at Metro Vancouver’s incinerator in July found leachable cadmium levels at nearly six times the allowed limit.

The numbers were provided by Cache Creek Landfill operator Wastech Services and confirmed by Metro Vancouver, which previously had only said some ash tested at more than

slow to turn over the test results – it only did so after Wastech asked for them in late September and after 1,800 tonnes of the over-limit ash had already been trucked to the landfill.

Metro now says older samples of incinerator fly ash dumped at the Cache Creek landfill’s special monofill cell around November 2010 also exceed the limit, prompting more extensive testing of all of the 25,000 tonnes of fly ash dumped

there since mid-2010.

“At this point we don’t know what it means,” Metro solid waste manager Paul Henderson said.

He said three ash samples tested from the older area all exceeded the limit – despite having previously passed two types of tests done on ash at the Burnaby waste-toenergy plant before it’s trucked out.

Environment Minister Terry Lake formally launched an investiga-

tion Oct. 30 into the concerns around the fly ash transfers.

Any ash found to be hazardous at Cache Creek will have to be removed and sent to another facility, he said, because the landfill isn’t authorized to take hazardous waste.

Metro is sending new fly ash to an industrial landfill in Alberta since the summer test failures came to light.

Metro Vancouver’s waste-to-energy plant is located in south Burnaby. fabric bags collect particulate to keep ash from going up the stack. It’s then processed so metals like cadmium don’t leach out after the fly ash is landfilled. any risk whatsoever to human health or environmental safety,” Lake said, but added any case of permit non-compliance must be taken “very seriously.”

Fraser Valley Regional District board chair Sharon Gaetz accused Lake of downplaying the health hazards.

She wants the investigation to go further and probe whether cadmium, a carcinogen tied to lung cancer, may have affected workers at the incinerator or landfill, or been spread into the Lower Mainland’s air.

“It is completely unacceptable that Covanta held back this information,” Gaetz said. “We are gambling with public health.”

Wastech general manager Janet Tecklenborg said landfill staff who deal with fly ash wear organic respirators and tie-back suits and a review has confirmed their procedures are correct.

“Our concern is the environmental risk to the community,” she said.

“We want to ensure we’re doing everything we can to protect the community, the safety of our employees and the land in the area.”

Tecklenborg said Wastech is very concerned that its compliance with regulations and relationship with the community was jeopardized when it unknowingly dumped the ash.

The fly ash is collected in fabric bags that keep it from going up the incinerator’s stack as air pollution.

A process using phosphoric acid and water then chemically binds metals like cadmium in the ash so it’s unleachable and can’t later be washed by rain into the environment after it’s landfilled.

According to Metro, the total amount of cadmium in the fly ash hasn’t changed, so either the treatment process didn’t adequately bind the cadmium – making it more susceptible to leaching – or else faulty tests incorrectly showed high levels.

Stack tests were done in July and August showed “excellent results” for air emissions, Henderson said.

The separate cell at the landfill is lined to keep any leachate that does develop from escaping to streams or groundwater.

“There is currently nothing to indicate any risk whatsoever to human health or environmental safety.”

Terry Lake “Our position has been from the beginning that, based on the information we have, there’s no potential impact on either the environment or human health as a result of the levels of cadmium being above the threshold,” Henderson said.

The landfill can’t dig up ash samples older than mid-2010 because the fly ash in those years was mixed in with municipal garbage.

Prior to 2000, incinerator fly ash went to the since-closed Coquitlam landfill.

Smart meter installations nearly complete in B.C. 1.7 million wireless devices in place

end of its installation of 1.7 million wireless electricity meters, but the “smart grid” won’t be functional until next spring.

Until then, meters will still be read manually or consumption estimated for billing purposes.

And for one more winter storm season, people will still have to call BC Hydro to report a power outage, before the grid begins automatic metering and reporting of electrical failures.

Cindy Verschoor, BC Hydro’s communications manager for the smart meter program, said about four per cent of the meter installations remain to be done, mainly on the Gulf Islands. Some of the old meters remain in locations around the province, either because they are inaccessible or because owners have refused new ones.

Manual meter readings will be checked against automatic readings during the testing phase,

to verify accuracy. Verschoor said there have been six meters replaced due to inaccurate readings or other defects, but generally the new meters are more accurate, and they eliminate human errors in reading or entering data required for mechanical meters.

“All of our meters have to be certified by Measurement Canada, which is a consumer protection agency, just like the pump at the gas station and the scale at the grocery store,” she said.

While BC Hydro owns the meter, the base and connections are part of the owner’s electrical system and can be placed anywhere. In some cases, garages or decks have been built over meters, and if they can’t be read, the bill is based on an estimate until a wireless meter is installed.

Verschoor said only two customers out of more than one million have opted to have the meter located away from their home.

Those who refuse for whatever reason have their installation placed

“on hold” while their concerns are addressed by BC Hydro.

After media reports of fires associated with the program, BC Hydro commissioned a study of residential fire reports by Surrey Fire Chief Len Garis and researcher Joseph Clare. It shows that electrical fires have declined since the installation of new meters began.

Damaged meter sockets are usually the owner’s responsibility, but BC Hydro inspects them at the time of installation and offers to fix them at no charge if they are damaged. So far, 1,200 meter bases have been replaced.

A house fire in Mission last spring took place three days after a smart meter was installed. Verschoor said the fire is still under investigation by the B.C. Safety Authority, but the meter has been ruled out as a cause. Despite media reports to the contrary, there have been no fires attributed to smart meters, she said.

Further home price drops forecast in 2013 High-end Vancouver sales skew average values

by Jeff Nagel Greater VancouVer’s average home prices should drop nearly two per cent next year after falling 5.9 per cent in 2012, according to a new housing forecast from the B.C. Real Estate Association.

The weakness in the real estate market is projected to be softest in single detached houses next year, with a 2.7 per cent drop to $1.09 million in the average price paid in Greater Vancouver in 2013.

Attached homes are projected to decline 0.7 per cent in average price to $555,000, while condos would gain 0.3 per cent to $443,000.

The BCREA report cautions those average prices were skewed up in 2011 by a spate of high-end home sales in the Vancouver area.

More typical homes in the region didn’t run up as fast as the average, nor have they slipped as much since the peak, it said, adding most home prices should remain “essentially flat” through 2013.

Sales are expected to rebound by almost 14 per cent after falling by an estimated 20 per cent in 2012.

Demand from buyers has ebbed since the federal government imposed tighter mortgage qualification rules.

Those measures, aimed to curb rising levels of consumer debt, were equivalent to a one per cent jump in mortgage rates for first-time buyers, according to economists at the BCREA. “Market fundamentals suggest stronger sales activity ahead,” the BCREA report says in its

Greater Vancouver outlook.

“Full-time employment has been growing at a three to four per cent clip for several months, mortgage interest rates remain at or near historic lows and the population base continues to expand.”

It says that should mean a return to “more balanced” real estate market conditions in Metro Vancouver as the current buyer’s market moderates.

Multi-family buildings are expected to account for 80 per cent of new units built this year, while single-family house starts are forecast to drop below 8,000 units for the first time since 2009.

The province’s economy is projected to grow at a rate of 2.3 per cent next year and the unemployment rate is to slip below seven per cent.

In the Fraser Valley real estate zone, which includes Surrey, White Rock and North Delta, the forecast calls for a 0.3 per cent drop in detached house prices to an average $600,000 in 2013, a 0.7 per cent drop in attached homes to $333,500 and a 1.4 per cent gain in apartments to $225,000.

It estimates overall average residential prices in the Fraser Valley will have fallen 3.1 per cent by the end of this year.

The report cautions that fluctuation mainly reflects changes in the mix of homes selling and that typical homes, tracked through benchmark prices, have shown “only modest change” since the end of 2009.

Sales are expected to rise 5.7 per cent next year after a more than 10 per cent drop in 2012.

B.C. reverses its policy on tourism

COMMITTEE, COMMISSION, AND BOARD APPOINTMENTS

Looking to get

get involved

New Crown corporation will promote province around the world

With your City?

by Tom Fletcher

Three years after the B.C. government took over

international tourism marketing to direct post-Olympic efforts, Premier Christy Clark has put the tourism industry back in the driver’s seat.

Clark and Jobs, Tourism and Innovation Minister Pat Bell announced the creation of a new Crown corporation Monday in Vancouver. They said Destination BC will be industry led and have formula funding from provincial taxpayers to advertise the province’s attractions outside the country.

Clark said she spoke out as a radio host against the government takeover when it was announced in 2009 by former tourism minister Kevin Krueger. The Council of Tourism Associations expressed “grave concerns” at the time, when the industry-led Tourism BC was disbanded.

Bell said Destination BC will have an increasing emphasis on marketing in Asia, especially China and India. It is to take over responsibility April 1, 2013, using currently budgeted funds for the first year. After that, the intention is to base the budget on a legislated percentage of annual sales revenue.

Clark and Bell took the first step to changing tourism marketing in October 2011, with a $1.1 million campaign to promote B.C. ski resorts. Half the spending went to Ontario, and the rest was split between Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles.

B.C. has long targeted those markets, but ads focused on promoting the province generically with “Super Natural B.C.” promotions that did not emphasise specific attractions or activities.

NDP leader Adrian Dix tried to pre-empt the expected announcement last week, making his own promise that an NDP government would return control over tourism marketing to the industry.

So says John Leech, executive director of the Applied Science Technologists and Technicians of BC (ASTTBC).

“British Columbia has a ready source of great jobs and careers in technology. Our education programs need to keep up with that demand,” Leech says.

“Every system we rely on – water, roads and transportation, telecommunications and Internet, hydro and natural gas, environment, health, forestry, and many more – utilizes engineering and applied science technology professionals working in the background. B.C.’s telecom and IT, animation and many other sectors produce new careers every month.”

ASTTBC has more than 10,000 members currently working in thousands of careers available to graduates of two-year diploma programs available at BCIT and other B.C. colleges and institutes.

“Our members enjoy rewarding, well-paid and often-recessionproof careers in public service and the private sector alike,” Leech states.

“For huge numbers of young men and women, technology is

Onni commissions study from Urban Analytics

Adding value near rapid transit The availability of rapid transit is one of the most important things that buyers are looking for in a home development in recent years, and a report by Urban Analytics for Onni has demonstrated the increase in value that comes with this convenience.

“Transit plays a big factor in the market,” says Nick Belmar of Onni.

“This report just substantiates our argument about what people could expect when they buy near transit.”

The report notes that new condos located along the Canada Line in Richmond and the Cambie corridor saw an increase in value, with Richmond seeing an increase of 21

per cent and Cambie finding a 33 per cent rise between 2009 and 2010. In Richmond, values increased by 15 per cent before the line was completed, and then six per cent over its first year.

Cambie saw similar results, with a 19 per cent increase before the line opened and a continued rise after.

“Values of newer condos located near a new rapid transit line will see an increase in value in the period ... preceding the completion of a rapid transit system, and ... while the rate of value appreciation tends to slow in the months after ... completion, higher values are sustained in the long term,” says Urban Analytics’ Michael Ferreira.

developers recognize this area as a hot spot.” Carlsen says. “Buyers want to live here.”

It’s no wonder, with Willowbrook Shopping Centre just a five minute walk away, and schools, recreation, dining and shopping all in the neighbourhood.

The area is incredibly family friendly, but it also works well for first-time buyers and downsizers alike.

Owners will be able to take possession of their new place at the

end of 2013. Over 50 per cent of the 69 homes are already sold, and Carlsen attributes this to three very important factors.

“This is a fantastic product at a fantastic price in an unbeatable location,” he says. “I really think it comes down to value.”

Two-bedroom, two-bathroom homes at Salix start at $229,900. For more information, visit www.salixliving.com or call 604-530-0054.

‘It’s really worked out well’

Salix offers great value in Surrey’s Clayton Heights

By Kerry Vital

Woodbridge Homes is bringing a touch of modern elegance to Surrey’s Clayton Heights neighbourhood with its condominium development, Salix.

That elegance starts outside your home, with the five-storey building’s classic Georgian-inspired architecture.

Red brick and styled ironwork combine with the craftsman woodwork accents to make for a chic entrance. Salix is surrounded by lush greenery, and includes a courtyard for residents with arbors and benches.

“

This is a fantastic product at a fantastic price in an unbeatable location,” says sales manager Rob Carlsen.

Inside, buyers have three different interior design schemes to choose from: two contemporary and one traditional. The contemporary schemes (called Sallow and Osier) feature stone countertops and chic white satin flat panel upper cabinets and Teak or Wenge laminate flat panel lower cabinets, complemented by a modern stainless-steel feature hood fan and a ceramic tile backsplash with glass tile accents in the kitchen. Meanwhile, the traditional scheme (called Willow) includes elegant granite countertops and Victorian cabinetry in a dark wood, with its own custom Broan hood fan and tumbled limestone backsplash with a custom hand-set centrepiece.

Both options are beautiful, so it’s up to you what style you want in your home.

“This allows purchasers to pick and choose,” says Carlsen. “It’s really worked out well.”

All three options feature stainlesssteel appliances and under-cabinet lighting, along with spacious bathrooms with walk-in showers surrounded by ceramic tile and well-lit large vanity mirrors, so your morning routine will be easy as possible.

There are 15 different floorplans available, ranging from 474 to 1,290 square feet in a variety of one-, twoand three-bedroom configurations, and all have proven popular with buyers, Carlsen says.

“The larger ones have done really well with downsizers. They don’t need a

big house anymore, but they still want space,” he says.

Nine-foot ceilings are included throughout, with 10-foot ceilings on the top and bottom floors. Laminate flooring is featured in the main living areas, while comfortable trackless nylon carpeting in the bedrooms is great to sink your toes into first thing in the morning or late at night. Oversize windows let the natural light flood your home no matter what the weather is doing outside. If you’re in the mood for a bit of outdoor living, every condo at Salix has a private balcony or patio.

One thing that Carlsen is particularly excited about at Salix is the storage space that comes with each residence.

Located in your parking stall, the fourfoot by eight-foot space with its solid metal roll-down door could really be called a mini-garage.

“It’s safe, secure and convenient,” says Carlsen. “It’s been huge with buyers.”

The Clayton Heights area has seen a boom in new home projects recently.

“I think it speaks to the fact that

Six goals in six games for Brady Shaw

Trade paying off for Eagles

by Nick Greenizan A gutsy move by Surrey Eagles

coach and general manager Matt Erhart last month – the trading of the team’s captain – is paying big dividends for the team now.

After seeing a 2-0 lead evaporate in the final eight minutes of the game, on Prince George goals from Tyson Witala and Cameron Lawson, Brady Shaw won the game for the home side at 3:55 of overtime when, after staying onside by about the width of a skate blade, he received a long pass at the Kings’ blue line, skated in on a breakaway and fired a wrist shot past Spruce Kings netminder and Surrey native Kirk Thompson.

Shaw has six goals and nine points in six games since arriving in South Surrey.

The victory was the Eagles’ third of the week, which boosted them to within two points of firstplace in the BC Hockey League’s Mainland Division with a record of 11-6-0-1 (won-lost-tiedovertime loss).

On Thursday, Surrey travelled to Langley and squeaked out a 2-1 double-overtime win. Eagles rookie Jordan Klimek, a Langley native, potted the winner in three-on-three OT. The next day, the Birds headed up the Coquihalla Highway to Merritt, where they won another one-goal contest, 3-2 over the Centennials.

Against the Rivermen, Brett Mulcahy scored the Eagles’ lone goal in regulation time, in the first period. His goal was matched

by Langley’s Ben Butcher just over two minutes later, and the scored remained knotted at 1-1- until Klimek’s OT winner, which came when he fired a wrist shot over the shoulder of Langley goalie James Barr.

Michael Santaguida earned the win, stopping 33 of 34 shots.

GARRETT JAMES / CONTRIBUTOR

Colton mackie of the surrey eagles tries unsuccessfully to put a puck past Prince george spruce Kings goalie Kirk thompson during saturday’s BCHL game in the south surrey Arena. the eagles won 3-2 in overtime.

Surrey’s other goaltender, Glenn Ferguson, was the star Friday in Merritt, earning firststar honors after a 39-save performance.

Michael Stenerson, Drew Best and Nicolas Pierog scored for Surrey.

The Eagles hit the road later this week for two games in the

Okanagan. They play the Salmon Arm Silverbacks Friday night, and the Vernon Vipers Saturday.

They then return home for a Monday night contest against the Coquitlam Express.

BLUE LINES: The Eagles’ newest acquisition is going to be a hard guy to miss.

Prior to the team’s weekend

contests, Surrey announced the signing of forward William Clark.

A 19-year-old native of Dallas, Texas, he is listed at six-foot-six and 223 pounds.

Last season, he put up 54 points in 39 games for the Dallas Stars of the Midwest Elite Hockey League.

“William is a big body with a good skill set that will provide

some size to our forward group,” said head coach and general manager Matt Erhart. “Coming from midget hockey, with a brief stint in the NAHL, it’s a big jump to the BCHL, but we feel he has the tools to be a key contributor to the Eagles program.”

Surrey also released Kolten Grieve from the team Friday.

A pair of wins for Eagles Men’s, women’s teams defeat Columbia Bible College

BasketBall teams from Kwantlen Polytechnic University are off to a perfect start to PACWEST play.

The Kwantlen Eagles women’s team defeated the Columbia Bible College (CBC) Bearcats 77-47 Friday night in Abbotsford, the first game of the season for both teams.

The men were also at CBC the same night, and edged the Bearcats 70-68.

Second-year guard and team captain Jeannine Yngresso paced the Eagles in the women’s game.

The graduate of Holy Cross high school in Surrey finished the game with 19 points and eight steals.

Cassandra Micona added 18 points, and she and Yngresso both went five-of-nine in three-

point territory.

Jessica Villadiego, another Holy Cross graduate, scored 13 points and had nine steals. The leading rebounder for Kwantlen was Laura Geissert with nine.

“I thought that we worked hard but not always smart,” said Eagles head coach Dan Nayebzadeh. “We need to take care of the ball a lot better than we have lately and we have to do a better job of finishing our shots.”

A last-second bucket executed by a pair of Surrey residents gave the Eagles the victory in the men’s game.

Aaron Ram’s three-point attempt failed to drop, but Gurpal Mann put back the rebound at the buzzer for the winning points.

Kwantlen dominated statistically, with four players scoring double digits and the Eagles

dominating the boards with 81 rebounds to CBC’s 55.

Ali Bosir, a fourth-year forward form Princess Margaret Secondary, had the double double with 18 points and 15 rebounds. Ram, a guard from North Delta’s Seaquam Secondary, had his first double double at the PACWEST level with 11 points and 10 rebounds.

“Games like this are the reason why you must play tough and compete on the defensive end,” said men’s head coach Stefon Wilson. “We did not shoot the ball well from the field, but our defense and rebounding kept us in the game.”

Both Kwantlen teams will play twice next weekend, playing in North Vancouver Friday against the Capilano Blues then tippingoff Saturday night against the Quest Kermodes in Squamish.

A win, loss A split while shorthanded for Devils Major Midget League team wins, loses against Fraser Valley

by Rick Kupchuk LAst-minute heroics

were both good and bad for the North Delta Devils last weekend.

There was heartbreak on home ice Saturday night, when a late goal lifted the Aldergrove Kodiaks to a 3-2 win over the Devils in the Sungod Arena. Then on Sunday evening at the Burnaby Winter Club, North Delta scored in the final minute for a 5-4 victory over the Grandview Steelers.

The Devils never led in Saturday night’s Pacific Junior Hockey League game, falling behind twice then coming back to tie the game before Stefan Gonzales of Surrey netted the winner for Aldergrove with just 16 seconds to play.

Another Surrey native, Ryan Veillet, netted the other two Kodiaks’ goals.

The 20 year-old tallied 34 seconds into the second period, then after Colin Catchpole of the Devils tied the game a minute into the third, Veillet’s second of the night just 28 seconds later put Aldergrove up 2-1.

Matthew Painchaud knotted the score at 2-2, but the power play goal

by Gonzales in the final minute lifted Aldergrove to the win.

The Steelers used the power play to get off to a fast start Sunday, taking a 2-0 lead with a pair of goals in the first 10 min-

utes of the game while playing with the man advantage.

The Devils exploded for three goals in 64 seconds at the end of the period to take a 3-2 lead into the dressing room.

Kurt Thrussell got the visitors on the scoreboard at 18:25, then Tanner Lenting tied the contest 46 seconds later. Just 18 seconds after that, Mack Wallace gave North Delta a 3-2 lead.

Surrey native Vik Sanghera drew Grandview even two minutes into the second period with his second power play goal of the evening.

Arvin Atwal put North Delta back on top with the only power play goal of the game by the Devils.

Grandview tied it again with 56 seconds left in the second frame, and Colin Catchpole notched a winner for the Devils with just five seconds left in regular time.

North Delta is 10-8-1 (win-loss-overtime loss) and in third place in the Tom Shaw Conference, five points up on Grandview and nine ahead of the North Vancouver Wolf Pack.

The Devils play at home twice this weekend, hosting North Vancouver Friday night at 9 p.m. then playing the Richmond Sockeyes Saturday at 6:45 p.m. Both games are in the Sungod Arena.

A chAnce to move up the BC Hockey Major Midget League standings slipped past the Valley West Hawks last weekend, due in part to the Western Canada Under-16 Challenge Cup in Calgary.

In a two-game series with the Fraser Valley Thunderbirds, a team which had won just one of their first 12 games of the season, the Hawks managed only a split.

But Valley West played without three players, who were part of Team BC which won gold at the Challenge Cup. The Hawks were without forwards Jakob Stukel and defenceman Parker

Wotherspoon, both of Cloverdale, and forward Matthew Bradley of Surrey.

Stukel leads the Hawks with 12 goals in as many games played, while Bradley is the top playmaker with eight assists.

Fraser Valley did not have a player chosen for Team BC. Valley West won Saturday night in Chilliwack 3-1, but fell on home ice 2-1 Sunday afternoon at the Langley Events Centre.

Now at 7-5-2 (won-lost-tied) on the season, the Hawks moved into a fourth place tie with the Vancouver Chiefs in the 11-team MML, an elite league for 15-17 year-old players.

Valley West fell behind 1-0 after 20 minutes of play Saturday, but got goals from forwards Mitch Newsome of Surrey and White Rock’s Matthew Cox for a 2-1 lead after two periods. Cole Bevan of Cloverdale netted an emptynet goal in the final minute of play.

Fraser Valley scored once in the first period and added another in the second to take a 2-0 lead into the third period of Sunday’s match. Quinncy Leroux netted the lone Hawks goal with five minutes to play.

The Hawks will have a bye next weekend, before facing off against the Chiefs for two games the weekend of Nov. 17-18.

Far left: Dead horses in Moreuil Wood in France one day after the March 1918 battle between Canadian Cavalry and German infantry.

At left is Robert Mackay, whose father was badly wounded in the battle.

PHOTO OF MACKAY BY BOAZ JOSEPH

Father: ‘Standing over my shoulder’ From Page 1

Mackay, who had been thinking of writing a historical novel for some time, had just realized that the following spring, March 30, 2008, would be the 90th anniversary of an unlikely First World War battle that involved some 3,000 sword-wielding Canadians on horseback charging the lines of Germans equipped with machine guns – long after trench warfare had relegated such actions as obsolete.

One of those Canadians, both legs riddled with bullets just minutes into the battle, was Thomas Mackay, his father.

F

our years into a new and grisly industrial war, with its machine guns, poison

gas, barbed wire and the new weapons of tanks and airplanes, the Battle of Moreuil Wood was an anachronism.

In one of the last such instances in history, Lord Strathcona’s Horse, a regiment still in existence today, charged the 23rd Saxon Division at Moreuil (pronounced “Moray”), helping to rein in what was, broadly, part of the last major German offensive on the Western Front during the First World War. “The tide started to be turned on March the 30th when the Canadians stopped them at Moreuil,” says Mackay, a 70-year-old South Surrey man.

After those defensive battles that the Allied forces weathered in the spring, the Germans

were pushed back towards their border until the armistice was signed on Nov. 11, 1918.

G

rowing up, Robert Mackay learned about the battle in from his father Thomas, who was 48 when Robert was born in 1942.

He talked “more than the average dad, that’s for sure,” recalls Robert.

“He told me lots of the good things and left out lots of the bad.

More than once, he commented that the years of the First World War were the best ones of his life, which is pretty odd.”

He remembered the camaraderie and the pride in the cavalry.

“He was pretty badly wounded, but he had a pretty full life after that,” Robert says.

The elder Mackay was a cavalryman in “C” Squadron of Lord Strathcona’s Horse, a military regiment born on the Prairies in 1900.

The officer in charge was Lt. Gordon Flowerdew, who was awarded a posthumous Victoria Cross for action in the Battle of Moreuil Wood.

From April 1915 on, Canadian cavalrymen alternated every two weeks between trench duty (on foot) and waiting, mounted, well behind the front lines for the order to charge – one that would take three years to come.

On March 30, 1918, Mackay’s squadron, already whittled down to about 75 men and horses through attrition,

was ordered by British Maj.-Gen. Jack Seely to charge the Germans around the north corner of a wood, while other Canadians – The Strathconas, the Royal Canadian Dragoons, and the Fort Garry Horse – charged straight through the trees.

“Flowerdew was supposed to sweep around the corner of the wood and attack the Germans as they were retreating.”

Robert Mackay recounts the battle as his father told him: The Canadians ran into two lines of German machine guns.

“It was too late to do anything but charge, so they charged at the gallop with their swords.

“My dad was in among the Germans when his horse went down – basically killed – and my dad was wounded very badly in the legs by machine gun fire.”

But the Canadians had surprised the defenders enough that they couldn’t aim their machine guns higher than the legs of the horses, and as casualties mounted in the melee, the Germans began to scatter.

I

n 1986, a French farmer named Jean Paul Brunel was plowing his field when he saw what he

thought was a boot.

He jumped off his tractor, and found the remains of a Canadian soldier who was identified through his dog tags as John James Willoughby, a member of Thomas Mackay’s regiment.

Willoughby’s name was already listed as dead, but his body was never found.

Brunel, learning about the battle on the land he owned and aware of the fact that his village had been flattened by the Germans, went on to become a historian and fan of the Canadian cavalry.

In time for the Battle of Moreuil Wood’s 90th anniversary in 2008, Brunel met the visiting Robert Mackay, and helped him piece together more informa-

SECTiOn CO-OrdinATOr: SHEILA REYNOLDS ( PHOn E 604-575-5332)

tion to guide Mackay’s novel, Soldier of the Horse, which was published in 2011.

Meeting Brunel “allowed me to walk the ground, which I find is very important as a writer,” notes Mackay.

There was reciprocity, too.

“He was very excited to meet me simply because my father had been there. It’s very common for him to meet grandchildren and greatgrandchildren, of (First World War) veterans, but not children... not somebody who had known and lived a normal life with one of the fellows.”

Although Mackay has the historical facts straight in his novel, the dialogue is fiction – otherwise it might have been a conjectural biography of a soldier from Winnipeg.

Mackay had to make up the character of Thomas’ first wife, who died before Robert was born. (Robert was born to Thomas’ second wife).

Thomas was a sergeant at the time of the battle

– for the third time, after several demotions and promotions – so his literary counterpart too gets in and out of scrapes with officers.

The protagonist, however, is named Tom Macrae.

“I changed my dad’s name,” explains Mackay.

“It was more or less a trick I had to pull on myself because when I was writing the book, it was as if he was standing over my shoulder.”

The real Thomas Mackay passed away in 1969.

Chorus honours Second World War veterans Remembrance and Variety Show by First Capital Barbershop Chorus this weekend

by Alex Browne ExpEct entertainment

with a strongly nostalgic theme.

The latest South Surrey show by the members of The First Capital Barbershop Chorus (Langley Chapter of the Barbershop Harmony Society) is all about music and memories according to co-producer and longtime chorus member John West.

The 2012 Remembrance and Variety

Show will evoke the Second World War and the sacrifice of those who served – while also spotlighting the talents of local singers in a second-half variety show format.

The show – which comes to St. Mark’s Anglican Church (12953 20 Ave.) at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 10 – once again draws many of its singers from Surrey, White Rock and Langley.

As West, and his

the latest South Surrey show by the members of the the First capital Barbershop chorus honours those who fought in the Second World War.

daughter Barbara Bourbonnais – a member of participating quartet Mixed Company – and veteran South Surrey chorus colleague Denny O’Donovan point out, this is the first time in three years the chorus has returned to its popular annual Remembrance show.

A number of factors contributed to the hiatus, including the rising costs of venues, they said, plus the inevitably thinning ranks of the earlier audience, those who served and their families.

The change in format also recognizes the fact that traditional remembrance programs, while popular, can run the risk of being repetitive and artistically limiting for the singers.

“You can end up doing the same show year after year, and the guys singing can get tired,” O’Donovan said.

The new format gives the well-regarded, rich-sounding harmony chorus – and guest groups The K Sisters, recent district senior champion barbershop quartet Syncromesh and Mixed Company – an opportunity to feature a much broader, if equally nostalgic, repertoire, they said.

“It throws it wide open, because we can do numbers like It’s A Good Day; some ’50s and ’60s stuff like My Special Angel and Love Me by Elvis Presley,” said West.

Not that remembrance will be neglected in the show, which in addition to songs that evoke the war years, such as A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square and Lili Marlene, will include spoken passages.

“The theme is ‘What do you remember?’” said Bourbonnais. “The guys in the show will be getting up and giving snippets of what they remember.”

While current members are too young to have served in the Second World War, many are old enough to have vivid memories of the war years – like West himself, who grew up in Brandon, Man. “While I was a very young child during the war, I remember the war effort needed aluminum,” he recalled.

“My mother gave me a couple of aluminum cooking pots that I took down to this big open

lot in Brandon, and threw on the pile.

“My father used to give me 50 cents allowance. I’d spend one quarter for a war stamp (contribution to the war effort) and I’d use the other quarter to go to the movies.”

He also remembers VE-Day clearly, he said.

“I was a paper carrier, and on VE-Day I was at the movies, at the Strand Theatre in Brandon, when the news came through.

They actually stopped the movie and made an announcement: any paper boys who were in the theatre needed to get out because there would soon be special extras that needed to be distributed.”

The variety format of the second half gives additional scope for Mixed Company, which plans to hark back to the days of vaudeville for some of its set, and for Langley chorus member John Spence, a veritable troubadour who sings self-accompanied on the guitar.

“John has this version of Bill Bailey Won’t You Please Come Home – it’s a wonderful version,” said O’Donovan.

“He has a very funny second verse – Bill Bailey don’t you, please, come home,” said Bourbonnais.

Adding extra pizzazz to this year’s program is the K Sisters, a professional quartet including versatile singers Caitlin Beaupre (soprano), Jennifer McLaren (mezzo), Karen Lee-Morlang (piano and vocals) and, for this show, Katy Hedalen (soprano).

“They’re very good – they sing along the lines of the Andrews Sisters,” said West.

“For the remembrance part of the program they’ll sing songs like Apple Blossom Time, the Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy and Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen, while in the second half they’ll probably have a costume change and a completely different set of Gershwin standards and other songs like that.”

Tickets ($20, $15 seniors and students) are available from Keith Ridge Men’s Wear, Semiahmoo Centre; The Pelican Rouge Café, Central Plaza; Ocean Park Pizza and Village Pub and Hallmark Cards in Willowbrook Shopping Centre.

A high-priority medal THE OFFICE OF the Governor General of Canada has

awarded E-Comm’s vice-president of Technology Services, Michael Webb, P. Eng., with a Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal.

Webb, a resident of Surrey, was honoured for his longstanding dedication and leadership in advancing publicsafety practices in British Columbia and across the country.

Having transitioned to E-Comm from Emergency Management BC, Webb is now spearheading projects geared towards evolving public-safety services and enhancing the technology used by police, fire and ambulance partners across the Lower Mainland, province and country.

“Much of my career has been dedicated to public safety and I take great pride in knowing what I do contributes to the well-being of citizens in my community and throughout the Lower Mainland and the rest of B.C.,” says Webb. “For my work to be recognized by the Office of Michael Webb the Governor General of Canada is very gratifying.”

Under Webb’s guidance, E-Comm is putting progressive plans in place to develop our region’s Next Generation Radio Network. Although still several years away, the current consolidated radio system used by police, fire and ambulance partners in the Lower Mainland will evolve to offer advanced interoperability and collaboration among publicsafety agencies.

It is one component of a set of initiatives underway in B.C. and across the country to equip first responders with improved communications tools and services using a variety of different types of media: voice, text, data, image and video.

Seaquam Secondary student to get Governor General’s History Award

THE ZOOT SUIT RIOTS sparked a fashion trend in the late ’40s and were the inspiration for a swing band song in the mid-’90s.

However, not many high school students know the historic details of the ethnic conflict. North Delta student Scott Peverell, who attends Seaquam Secondary, and Corwan Groux from Ontario interpreted and analyzed the 1944 riots that rocked Montreal with a series of large-scale brawls between servicemen, especially sailors, against civilians, including zoot suit-wearing youths.

Corwan and Scott competed head-

to-head with students from across Canada in the 2012 Begbie Canadian History Contest and scored 100 per cent, .

The pair’s win not only earned them about $1,000 in prizes, but they’ll also be flown to Ottawa to collect a medal at the Governor General’s History Awards.

The Begbie contest is a competition that challenges senior students to use their knowledge of Canadian history.

The two-hour contest consists of 25 questions based on major events in Canadian history from 1850 to the present. The emphasis is on critical thinking skills using sources such as political cartoons, paintings, posters, graphs, maps, statistics, songs, speeches, diaries, letters, newspaper articles and memoirs.

Last year Peverell scored 96 per cent in the competition, tying for third place.

Learning on the run – in the Desert SFU chemist George Agnes is the architect of an educational program that has its participants learning while running across the world’s most challenging terrain. Last year was in Bolivia (above), while this year took him and eight youth to Botswana.

In the business of helping Co-Operators agents Ted Leung of the Sunwood Square (Coquitlam) branch (left) and Jaspal Brar of the Newton branch have established an annual bursary to assist two single parents at Douglas College. Students studying in the Bachelor of Business Administration – Financial Services Management program will be eligible to receive a $1,000 or $500, bursary depending on their need.

To cancer from Kwantlen KWANTLEN Polytechnic University has presented a $5,370 cheque to the Canadian Cancer Society with funds raised going towards cancer research, and creating awareness about the disease.

T

alk about a living-learning experience.

Guided by an education curriculum designed by a Simon Fraser University professor, eight youths learned on the spot as they ran across the Kalahari Desert in Botswana from Oct. 30 to Nov. 8.

The 17- to 21-year-old runners researched several science-related subjects connected to a specific academic theme while crossing 400 kilometres of desert in the sixth chapter of the impossible2Possible (i2P) World Expedition Series.

This year’s theme was water availability and use in the Kalahari Desert and its effects on biodiversity and human development.

The California-based, non-profit organization sponsors youth expeditions with academic themes investigating pressing world issues. For the past three years, expeditions have taken their youth ambassadors to Baffin Island, Tunisia, the Amazon basin and

the Bolivian Altiplano.

“Foundational scientific principles are at the core of the i2P expedition’s academic themes,” says George Agnes, an SFU chemistry professor and associate dean of the Faculty of Science who developed the current trek’s academic component.

“The i2P academic program allows its youth ambassadors to identify and learn what they are interested in as it relates to the Kalahari Desert and the trip’s academic theme,” he adds.

“Participants spent several weeks prior to the trip doing background research to decide what kind of experiments and projects they’ll conduct in the field during their run. They also trained rigorously for their run and maintained their daily school work.”

This year’s participants chose to study water purification, animals, human-rights issues related to indigenous peoples, and economic and biodiversity challenges connected to water in the Kalahari Desert.

SECTION CO-ORDINATOR: BOAZ JOSEPH (PHONE 604-575-2744)

Agnes says the i2P expeditions exemplify experiential learning at its best because, through the Internet, the youth ambassadors are linked to students in classrooms globally who are studying the same subjects.

“The expedition’s curriculum is free to schools that want to follow the youth ambassadors’ field activity and communicate with them daily via satellite,” explains Agnes. “It’s a chance for students to get immediate feedback to their questions straight from the source. SFU’s Faculty of Science is delighted to engage in such promotion of science outreach and innovative science pedagogy.”

Last year, Agnes designed the academic program for i2P’s expedition to Bolivia’s Altiplano region around the importance of lithium. Bolivia has one of the world’s few commercially harvestable salt flats containing lithium, a trace metal used in batteries to power cell phones and other mobile electronic devices.
