BC Liberal, New Democrat caucuses should ensure no future blurring of lines: MLA
Hogg ‘would welcome external review’ Alex Browne Staff Reporter
Government caucus chair Gordon Hogg says he is satisfied with the findings of the report by John Dyble, deputy minister to the premier, on the ethnic-vote scandal that has rocked the already-beleagured BC Liberals. But the Surrey-White Rock MLA admits he had “an emotional response” to what the report revealed about the strategy and what
many have termed cynical plans to sway ethnic voters. Hogg – who also conducted an independent review of the role played by caucus staff in the preparation of the BC Liberals’ contentious Draft Multicultural Strategic Plan – says he fully agrees with recommendations of the Dyble report, released last week, particularly those suggesting further disciplinary action might be warranted and that a
review and clarification of codes of conduct are necessary. Hogg says he has no reason to doubt Premier Christy Clark’s assurances that the recommendations will be acted on “immediately.” At the same time, he says he would welcome an external review of both BC Liberal and NDP caucuses to ensure that “blurring of the lines” between government business and partisan politics is avoided in the future.
Hogg acknowledged in an interview with Peace Arch News Monday that he had a “visceral” reaction as he read Dyble’s report, which outlined misuse of government funds, misconduct by public officials and deliberate use of private emails to cover wrongdoing in the development of a strategy to woo ethnic voters to the ranks of BC Liberal supporters. › see page A4

Cross-party opposition over coal trains Dan Ferguson Staff Reporter
About 80 people attended a noon-hour rally in White Rock Sunday against a proposal that would increase coal-train traffic along the BNSF railway that runs through White Rock, South Surrey and Delta. Based on the turnout, the opposition to the Fraser Surrey Docks proposal to build a coal-transfer facility has crossed party lines and municipal boundaries, with Surrey-White Rock Liberal MLA Gordon Hogg and Delta
North NDP MLA Guy Gentner among the speakers against the plan, as well as White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin. Baldwin drew cheers when he read out a letter against the plan that was sent Friday to the CEO of Surrey Fraser docks, the port of Vancouver and Transport Canada. In it, the mayor says: “It is outrageous that this rail traffic would even be considered through a residential, highly densified city that has absolutely no industrial area at all.” Fraser Surrey Docks has applied to build

a terminal that would bring in thermal coal from Wyoming via the BNSF railway that runs through White Rock, South Surrey and Delta. It’s estimated the Surrey facility would mean two more coal trains, each up to 2.3 kilometres long, on the waterfront route every day. Along with a proposal to expand Neptune Terminals in North Vancouver, the application is to be decided by Port Metro Vancouver managers, with no formal public meetings or approvals by other agencies. › see page A2

A fire Thursday afternoon at Semiahmoo Shopping Centre caused the building to be evacuated and the mall to be shut down. The mall re-opened at its usual time Friday morning, but Zellers is still closed and, according to a customer-service representative Monday afternoon, “will be for months.” The fire started at a display of mattresses, according to Surrey deputy fire Chief Jon Caviglia. While the flames were confined to that one area, the black smoke did the majority of the damage. “Obviously, it burned enough to set off the sprinkler system,” he said. “There is a lot of smoke damage in Zellers…the amount of smoke was incredible.” It has not yet been determined if the fire was accidentally or intentionally set, Caviglia added. By 4 p.m. Thursday, Surrey Fire Services members, as well as employees from a restoration company, had set up large fans in the shopping centre’s entryways in order to clear out the smoke. Semiahmoo Shopping Centre management did not return Peace Arch News’ calls seeking comment.

‘Lack of public consultation’ › from page A1 There was, Baldwin told the rally, “absolutely no public consultation.” The letter makes four demands: • A “meaningful” consultation process before the the proposal is approved. • “Full and complete written assurance” from Environment Canada and Health Canada that the coal dust from the trains doesn’t pose a health hazard. • Air-quality monitoring along the train route. • A limit on the amount of train traffic. “It is unacceptable that the volume of traffic should be allowed to increase without any apparent limitation or without any consultation with our citizens,” the letter states. Hogg described the increased train traffic as a “safety” issue, both in terms of potential hazards to pedestrians and the possible

health risks of coal dust. Gentner said coal contributes to global warming, making the deal to ship more coal overseas a problem that affects everyone. “It’s a local issue, it’s a global issue,” Gentner said. Among the other politicians who attended the rally were White Rock Coun. Helen Fathers and Surrey Coun. Barinder Rasode, who both said they were there to show support for the community. Rasode said the potential impact of the coal trains on Crescent Beach make it a Surrey concern as well. The rally was organized by Kevin Washbrook, of Voters Taking Action on Climate Change, who said it was in part a thank-you to the local politicians for taking a stand. – with files from Tracy Holmes

Cocaine ‘courier’ arrested at border last September
Condom swallower remains locked up Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
The sentencing of a man who pleaded guilty to importing cocaine – via swallowing 66 drug-filled condoms – was adjourned last week so lawyers could research if immigration laws should be considered in deciding his penalty. “Our correctional system is designed in such a way that people in custody get out a little early to be integrated” back into the community, Judge James Sutherland said during a March 11 hearing for Ricardo Vasquez in Surrey Provincial Court. “We don’t know… whether Mr. Vasquez is subject to that, or whether he has to stay in. Mr. Vasquez is not going to be reintegrated into Canadian society.” Vasquez, 35, pleaded guilty Jan. 30 to importing cocaine. He has been in custody since Sept. 7, after border guards at the Pacific Highway crossing in South Surrey became suspicious of information provided
by Vasquez, who was a passenger on a north- ver airport to be monitored in a “drug loo.” bound bus. That afternoon, Vasquez gave a statement As Vasquez stood in the prisoner’s dock, “that he had swallowed about 20 pellets two federal prosecutor James Whiting told Suther- or three days prior,” Whiting said. land how Vasquez had told the officers he was About 30 minutes after that, he “began travelling from Chicago, Ill. to to excrete the pellets, (each) ❝Couriers tend to be Whistler to see a friend, but about 1½ inches in length.” selected due to their lack he had no return ticket.

Whiting estimated the wholesale value of Vasquez was carrying two cellphones, the drugs at just over $25,000.

When an X-ray was inconclusive, Whiting said that without proof, the claim Whiting said, Vasquez was taken to Vancou- cannot be given much weight.
Describing importing drugs as a more serious offence than trafficking, he asked Sutherland to impose a four-year jail term. “The Crown’s position… (is) that couriers are not to be treated any more leniently. In fact, case law says the opposite,” he said. “Couriers tend to be selected due to their lack of criminal record or the perception that will appear more sympathetic” if caught. “Choosing to bring something like this into the country certainly reflects a serious, serious threat of damage to the community.” Vasquez’s lawyer, Evi dos Santos, suggested Sutherland consider a term of 18 months, describing his client as being in “desperate need… compelled to be part of this scheme.” “There is no evidence he was going to profit,” dos Santos said. Jail, he added, has been “very stressful” on his client; he has lost contact with his wife and son, lost weight and isn’t sleeping well. Sutherland, noting statutory release is a “live issue” in this case, adjourned until April 5.
Roommates killed
Colebrook victims ID’d Kevin Diakiw Black Press
The two victims found on Colebrook Road last week have been identified as roommates. Police say both were likely shot at the location they were found. At 2 a.m. Wednesday, police on patrol found the body of 54-yearold Brett Sheldon Lietz at 125A Street and Colebrook Road. A wider search with police dogs turned up the body of 40-year-old Nicole Madelynn Brochu. Only Brochu had a criminal record, between 1989 and 2003. The motive for the homicides are not known, said Sgt. Jennifer Pound of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT). “We do know the two victims were known to each other as they were living together as roommates. Our priority is to determine the details that led up to their murders and locate the person(s) responsible,” Pound said in a release. Pound did not indicate where the victims lived, but said it’s likely the deaths are unrelated to two other bodies found separately at the site in the previous six weeks. “It’s very early to say conclusively that all of the four victims found at this location are unrelated to each other, however, the flow of evidence to date supports the theory that they are not connected and only one of the victims had gang connections,” she said. The body of 26-year-old Jaskaran Singh Sandhu was found in the area on Jan. 28, while the charred remains of 29-year-old Amritpal Saran of Delta were found on Feb. 24. Police, so far, believe only the Sandhu killing was gang-related. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts has met with representatives from the bylaw and engineering departments, police and area residents, and said they will develop a coordinated plan to make the area safer, possibly including CCTVs.

Residents take a look at preliminary plans for the Ocean Beach Hotel site on Marine Drive, during a public information meeting Wednesday.
Ocean Beach owner seeking zone amendment for residential redevelopment
Public input sought for hotel’s future Alex Browne Staff Reporter
A steady stream of city residents filed into the gallery room of White Rock Community Centre Wednesday night for a glimpse at the potential future of the Ocean Beach Hotel site on Marine Drive. The well-attended public information meeting – which also drew Mayor Wayne Baldwin and council members Bill Lawrence and Grant Meyer – presented preliminary plans for redevelopment of the site, including a two-building mixed residential-commercial project. Owner Tony Veltri and his architect Timothy Ankenman, of Ankenman Marchand, are seeking a zoning amendment for a four-storey building on Victoria Avenue and a three-storey building fronting Marine Drive, plus two levels of underground parking. Missing from the vision presented Wednesday was any reference to the recently announced lease of the cabaret-lounge portion by the Joseph Richard Group, operators of the Town Hall chain of suburban pubs.
Principals Ryan Moreno and Andre Bourque have told the Peace Arch News they were restyling the venue as the Hemingway Public House, with a soft opening planned for the end of this month. Repeated calls to Moreno and Bourque to check on the current status of the project were not returned by Peace Arch News press time Monday. Veltri has previously said the group “has a long lease” on the property. According to the plan documents, however, “subject to potential rezoning of the site, the rooming house and cabaret lounge will close their doors.” No timeline has been announced for the proposed redevelopment. White Rock development services director Paul Stanton said there is “a two-year ticking clock on a development application,” provided it is approved by council. Extensions can be granted, however, if a development is delayed by such factors as renegotiating financing or meeting requirements
for a building permit. A statement from Veltri, who acquired the hotel in 1985, said the object of the meeting was to “determine community willingness to accept the potential redevelopment of this important waterfront site and closure of the late night cabaret and lounge.” Input is also being sought on the proposed architectural plan, plus ideas from the public on potential options for the site. According to last week’s presentation, the buildings would provide 30 residential units (a total of 43,247 sq.-ft.) with 5,745 sq.-ft. of ground-floor commercial space. The footprint of the two buildings would total 10,228 sq.-ft., a 64.7 per cent coverage of the site currently occupied by the hotel (15,792 sq.-ft. including city land). Two levels of underground parking would provide 37 residential spaces, plus seven commercial spaces. The presentation said public feedback was being sought on what kind of shops and businesses would occupy the commercial portion.

Surrey RCMP and Surrey Fire Services were called to the Curio Shop on Thursday morning.
Emergency crews on scene attending to ‘mental-health issue’
Police called to Curio Shop Nick Greenizan Staff Reporter
Surrey RCMP and Surrey Fire Services were on scene at South Surrey’s Old Curio Shop Thursday morning, attending to what RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet called “a mental-health issue.” “We were called to assist the Surrey fire department on a call to check in on the well-being of a female who resides at that location,” Paquet said. As well, Paquet said officials were there following up on a previous file “with regard to the buildings” on the property, in the 1400-block of King George Blvd. “We’re working with the City of Surrey building inspection
department with regard to safety risks for the occupants – possible electric hazards, things of that nature,” he said. “We’re concerned with the safety of the residents. Beyond the look and feel of the place from a public perspective, we’re working with the city to ensure that if any actions need to be taken to ensure their safety, those steps happen.” The Curio Shop – well-known for its floor-to-ceiling profusion of secondhand items – has been the focus of city bylaw officers and emergency crews before. In December 2011, bylaw and cleanup crews arrived at the business with a bulldozer to help the
proprietor tidy the site, including the removal of dying blackberry bushes. At that time, Surrey’s manager of bylaw enforcement, Ed Warzel, told Peace Arch News they’ve been dealing with the property since 2009. “We’ve been responding to complaints about the tidiness of the property,” he said. “There’s been an accumulation, a collection of, for want of a better word, stuff. Some, I suspect, is of value, some of it is junk. It’s one of those things that is very personal. He’s been in the area a long time, and you don’t just get there overnight. But you can’t just leave that sort of thing lying in yards.”

Officer on trial A White Rock RCMP constable who was criminally charged in connection with the May 2011 hit-and-run death of 56-year-old Marilyn Laursen will go to trial. According to court records, the proceedings are set for four days in Surrey Provincial Court starting Feb. 11, 2014. Charges of dangerous driving causing death and dangerous driving causing bodily harm were announced against the officer last August, following an investigation conducted by the Vancouver Police Department at the request of the RCMP. That investigation was launched immediately following the collision that killed Laursen, who was crossing Johnston Road at Thrift Avenue with a friend when she was struck. The driver of the car that hit her, Kyle Brandon Danyliuk, pleaded guilty to four charges and was sentenced last October to two years in jail. - Tracy Holmes

editorial
Crossing the partisan line
L
ast week’s report by deputy minister John Dyble into the conduct of B.C. government staffers confirmed the worst – a number of people on the public payroll were busy doing BC Liberal party business, ignoring clear directives not to do so. Whether this was to do with ethnic outreach or attacks on other political parties is irrelevant. What is relevant is that there was no clear demarcation between partisan and government work, and people at a high level in the premier’s office knew and approved of this. If non-political staffers who work for the government want to engage in partisan work, they have a right to so – on their time off. While they are working for the government on projects like ethnic outreach, those projects need to be for government purposes. The provincial government and the party in power are not one and the same. While the NDP initially raised this serious case of the blurring of partisan and government roles, the party does not have completely clean hands. It has since come out that four-time NDP candidate Gabriel Yiu has been on the payroll of the NDP caucus – which gets its funds from taxpayers. This issue was raised by auditor general John Doyle while he was looking into the lack of accounting and transparency of the legislature itself. While Yiu did not mix government and party work (his party is in Opposition), and the former legislative comptroller signed off on NDP caucus members using part of their constituency funds to pay Yiu, this looks more like a situation where the party made a job for him, at taxpayers’ expense, while waiting for the next election. Every B.C. political party that has formed government has, at times, blurred the line between party and government business. The lack of transparency and accountability in legislature accounts has made this easy to do and, despite Doyle’s report into this mismanagement of tax dollars, neither party has completely committed to fixing this mess. The report from Dyble will do little to restore public confidence in the Christy Clark government, particularly as these actions were taking place within her office, and in the run-up to the election. However, the fact the NDP has paid former candidates to do political work with tax dollars makes it that much harder for voters to decide which candidates to choose when they cast their ballots.

back half of his salary for the 18 months he was on the public payroll. NDP outrage over this was blunted by another leaked document. This one was from a never-released 2010 report by auditor general John Doyle, which condemned a five-year program of skimming money from NDP constituency office budgets all over the province and using it for political work. In a nice bit of symmetry, much of the more than $400,000 was spent to put three-time candidate Gabriel Yiu on the NDP caucus payroll. Yiu’s Vancouver-Fraserview candidate page boasts of his ethnic outreach work, which included tirelessly warning B.C.’s Chinese community about the evils of the harmonized sales tax. In fact, it was the NDP-Yiu operation that inspired a BC Liberal copycat plan. The NDP quietly stopped the budget skimming after Doyle pointed out the blindingly obvious, which is that constituency funds are to serve constituents and are not to be diverted to political organizing. It was kept under wraps by the secretive Legislative Assembly Management Committee. This is the BC Liberal-NDP co-managed trough of undocumented MLA expenses and other questionable payments that Doyle has only recently dragged into the light. Both of these schemes have the same stink. Both are intentional abuse of taxpayers’ money for the political gain of the dominant parties. There is no moral high ground for either of them.

Disrespect from ‘the boss’ Editor: Re: Backlash follows project approval, March 14. On March 11, citizens, concerned about the handling of the proposed development of the Muffler Shop at Oxford and Marine Drive, attended the White Rock council meeting. Mayor Wayne Baldwin spoke out against the previous council’s handling of the situation. He then went on to take issue with what some of the concerned citizens said about the proposed Muffler Shop development during the public hearing held Feb. 25. This was very disrespectful to these citizens who, in good faith, spoke to council about their concerns of the handling of this site. Whether the citizens were right or wrong is not the point. The point is that the mayor broke with the established rules by expressing his concerns about what a citizen said at a public hearing. He was entitled to ask questions, but not to enter into a debate regarding the merits of what was being said. When other citizens made this known, Baldwin said, “I’m the boss!” I would like people to know that some of our citizens were hurt by the mayor’s comments. It took time to canvas neighbourhoods and to get up the courage to speak into a microphone to express their concerns. To then be chastised by the mayor during the public hearing, and then again in the following council meeting, is unacceptable. In my opinion, it would be helpful for Baldwin to take classes in “effective communication.” Sandra Sammartino, White Rock n I’m not sure which I feel more strongly – a heavy heart or anger. White Rock council approved the new plans on the muffler-shop lands by a vote of 4-3. Such confusion surrounded the second purchaser’s plans, that even someone like me – who has a university degree and faithfully attends council meeting – had a very difficult time understanding the presentations. Seemed like a lot of smoke and mirrors in the architects’ presentation, with perspective drawings just one of the things that muddled the reality. After the last of numerous public hearings, where 134 showed up to voice their opposition to this second set of plans, the project was accepted, despite the fact Coun. Al Campbell had received surveyors’ plans that led to questions about the development, Coun. Louise Hutchinson pleading that there was a strong need to clarify information and Coun. Helen Fathers doing a stellar job leading this meeting and suggesting that since new information had been brought forth, council had the duty of due diligence to look into these matters again. Not so, according to Mayor Wayne Baldwin and Couns. Larry Robinson, Bill Lawrence and Grant Meyer. It seems these voters’
questions were unimportant to them. I hope the voting public pays attention to who on their council is looking after the concerns of the residents of White Rock first and developers second. Susan Potzold, White Rock
I need Canada to be great now Editor: My grampa said, “Always keep your money in a jar.” Instead, I paid my taxes. Turning 50 last year was of great excitement for me, until I was diagnosed with atrial fibulation and relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis in July. After going through denial and thinking I could continue on with life as a normal healthy woman, I tried to return to the work force and
planned for a long overdue vacation last month. Well, did my life let me know I was wrong. Spending most of the month of October in the hospital, work was out of the question and so was the vacation. Now, after spending all my savings and any securities for a situation like this, I was forced to admit I needed help and had to apply to human resources, or what we called it back in our day, welfare. Thank God for my roommate and longtime friend, as I do not know how I would of survived on the $610 a month I receive – of which $600 is my share of the rent. MS is a disorder that affects your nerves and muscles, so falling down is an occurring thing. If my roommate did not buy the groceries, pay the bills, drive me to all my appointments and support me mentally and physically, I would be out on the street. I understand that dealing with certain people who are supported by these resources can be difficult
and trying, but I am not one of those people. I am always polite when talking on the phone to a “worker” – sometimes after waiting on hold for up to one hour and then being told my badly needed $610 is not ready, or even having been hung up on as I express the urgency of this money. My roommate and I have made many a daunting trips to Fleetwood, using her gas and time, only to be told there was some mixup and we will have to come back for the cheque the next day. I since applied for my “Persons With Disabilities,” as I am not able to hold down a job, only to be turned down to receive $905. I have worked hard all my life, paid all my taxes, and was always brought up that Canada is a great place to live. I just know now that is the time in my life I need it to be great. Sick, disabled, old, poor… sometimes we need help. What did I pay my taxes for? Louise McKenzie, White Rock

Coal-train comments made by White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin (top) and Coun. Al Campbell get a split decision.
Two trains of thought over coal
Editor: Re: More coal trains unacceptable: mayor, March 12. I congratulate White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin for seeking council support regarding coal trains; however, I was confused by comments made by Coun. Al Campbell. Campbell agrees with the concern but does not feel we have much clout and recommends making a lot of noise. Coun. Campbell, we need more than noise. We need leadership from council to develop a strategy. Your comment, that BNSF will have to find another route eventually, is reactive and wishful rather than proactive. If, as Campbell suggests, railway is a federal matter, then council should identify who they should contact on the federal level and get them to understand our issues. Individuals making ‘noise’ have less impact than a whole council representing the concerns of the city. In 2010, I wrote to the city asking them who was keeping track of the frequency of the trains, the length of the trains, environmental concerns, weight of the trains and trains hooting in the middle of the night. I was told railway was a federal matter, and I was given a phone number of a person at BNSF to raise my concerns. I questioned then where the leadership of the city was. Three years later, the trains are longer, more frequent and no one want to address the open coal trains. Meanwhile, decisions to increase coal trains through White Rock were made without any consultation with the city. The council should not be surprised. It has not been proactive and has taken on a passive position that federal government decides matters of railway. It is still not too late to be proactive and look for ways to reach out to the federal government. The council will definitely have more impact than individual citizens. Aroon Shah, White Rock
n I am writing in response to the grandstanding of Mayor Wayne Baldwin regarding the BNSF coal shipments that transit through the City of White Rock. Coun. Al Campbell has hit the nail on the head in questioning the reach of the mayor in this regard. The truth of the matter is that while it is a great moment for Baldwin to express concerns, he has absolutely no power over what is in fact going on. The powers that be over railways in Canada are well enshrined in the Federal Railway Act, as seen when the CN Police were in attendance during the protest last spring regarding coal shipments, in concert with the local RCMP detachment (13 fined in rail protest, May 8). The relationship between the city and BNSF is interesting, as to the issue of leased property towards parking revenues. It seems White Rock wants to lease the land to subsidize its tax base – a smart move perhaps with no voice at that time to a problem that was already front and centre being coal-train shipments. If Baldwin and certain silent members of council wished to express these views, this might have been the most opportune time. The fact is that Baldwin speaks double-talk in saying that he has no control on a major casino project next door in the City of Surrey (White Rock mum on nearby casino plan, Nov. 29) but now wants to rule the Fraser Surrey Docks. I call him on this as selective politics. I say if you are serious, Mayor Baldwin, you are not in the correct ball park and a very small player at best as to what you might think you control. Campbell is, in fact, correct in questioning the issue as to it being a federal matter not under your control. Ron Eves, White Rock

Breach of conditions discovered by police
VPD frustrated by convicted rioters Jeff Nagel Black Press
At least a quarter of Stanley Cup rioters convicted so far are failing to comply with release conditions, according to Vancouver Police. Eleven sentenced rioters are under investigation for breach of their court orders, VPD Inspector Laurence Rankin said last week. More than 40 rioters – sentenced for the June 15, 2011 mayhem following the Vancouver Canucks Stanley Cup final loss to Boston – are being periodically monitored by the Integrated Riot Investigation Team to ensure they’re complying with probation or other conditions. Rankin said spot checks show 11 – seven
adults and four youth – were caught not complying with curfews, house arrest rules or orders not to go to certain areas. They’ve now been charged with breach of conditions. “They talked about spotless records, they talked about being outstanding people in the community,” Rankin said, referring to defence requests for lenient sentences. “But here they are not taking their conditions seriously, not taking the courts seriously.” Vancouver Police suspect the number of rioters not obeying orders is even higher. “We have not made these extraordinary efforts to see some rioters flout the law with disrespect for the courts,” Rankin said.

Det.-Const. Raj Mander said only a handful of the 42 people being monitored live in the City of Vancouver, forcing VPD officers to make forays further out in the region or enlist aid from RCMP in checking on residents of the Interior or Vancouver Island. “It’s a pretty onerous task to go all the way out to Aldergrove, Richmond, North Vancouver – all over the Lower Mainland – and knock on the doors of these people.” Surrey is the most common home city so far for sentenced rioters – 15 live there – followed by eight from Burnaby, seven from Vancouver, five from Richmond and three from North Vancouver. The courts have so far sentenced 56 of 194 accused rioters charged by Crown.

Surrey 6 trial delayed Sheila Reynolds Black Press
Three of the five men charged in connection with the murder of six people in a Surrey highrise in 2007 won’t face trial until mid-September, and trials for the others won’t likely begin until after that. Matthew Johnston, Cody Haevischer, and Quang Vinh Thang (Michael) Le are all charged with first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder in the so-called “Surrey Six” case, in which four alleged gangsters and two innocent bystanders were killed at the Balmoral Tower apartments on Oct. 19, 2007. The trio were initially scheduled to face trial in May, but on Thursday that date was pushed back four months because of the volume of material lawyers have to review. Jamie Bacon, charged with two counts of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder, is being tried separately in Vancouver but a date has yet to be set in his case.
Sophon Sek, charged with manslaughter, is scheduled to appear in Surrey Provincial Court next January. While police believe four of the victims – Corey Lal, Michael Lal, Ryan Bartolomeo and Edward Narong – were involved in gang activity, two were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. Christopher Mohan, 22, lived in a neighbouring suite with his family and 55-year-old Ed Schellenberg was in the building repairing a fireplace. In 2009, Dennis Karbovanec was sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for 15 years after he pled guilty to three counts of second-degree murder and one count of conspiracy to commit first-degree murder. Karbovanec struck a plea deal that meant he would have a chance of leaving prison sooner than if he was convicted of first-degree murder. Four RCMP officers investigating the case were also charged in 2011 with breach of trust and obstruction of justice.

City issues stop-work order
Trees cut without permit Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
City of Surrey planning and development staff are investigating the unauthorized cutting last month of approximately 20 trees on a South Surrey property. General manager Jean Lamontagne confirmed a stop-work order was issued for 2108 171 St. on Feb. 19. It also relates to unfinished demolition work that has left the site unsafe. “They demolished the house, but they… left the basement there, so that was not safe, so we posted a stopwork order so they would have to make the site safe,” Lamontagne said. Lamontagne said a demolition permit was issued for a house on the
property following a fire last year. According to city rules, the permit holder was required to either fence off trees to prevent them from being damaged during the demolition or have an arborist on-site during the work to ensure the trees are protected. “In this case, we had a comfort letter that there would be an arborist on-site,” Lamontagne said. “For whatever reason, trees were cut without permit, so we’re following that.” Lamontagne said the city has “a pretty good handle” on the situation. He did not know when the stopwork order might be lifted, and said the tree-cutting will likely result in fines.

Nurses to help detect trafficking victims Jeff Nagel Black Press
Nurses in Fraser Health will be trained to recognize the warning signs of human trafficking among victims of violence who come into the region’s hospitals. Surrey Memorial Hospital’s forensic nursing unit will develop a tool kit for the rest of the region – a first in Canada – to train emergency department staff in detecting and aiding victims. The effort is funded by an $18,000 civil forfeiture grant announced Friday by Justice Minister Shirley Bond, who also unveiled a broader provincial action plan on human trafficking. Most victims are forced into prostitution or sexual exploitation and many are believed to be aboriginal, often convinced to move from northern B.C. to the Lower Mainland and into the hands of controlling masters.

Combat Trafficking in Persons, said youth are increasingly recruited by traffickers over the Internet. She said a computer game is also being developed to teach youth how to recognize manipulative tactics of human traffickers, who ply victims with free alcohol or drugs, gifts, trips and invitations to parties. “Accepting these can trap them into paying off a debt,” Currie said. She said foreign workers in Canada can also be more vulnerable to traffickers, who may seize their passports as another control lever. A total of $150,000 in provincial civil forfeiture grants are going to human-trafficking initiatives. The new action plan lists youth, vulnerable workers and aboriginal communities as priority groups and focuses on public awareness, staff training and service coordination.

LIBRA
Are you ready for surprises, Aries? If not, loosen up a little bit because there is a little excitement in store for you. It will come when you least expect it.
Libra, someone you can trust will be by your side this week when you need the most support. He or she also can help with sorting through financial concerns.
TAURUS
SCORPIO
You may need an extra dose of patience this week, Taurus. Some difficult tasks are ahead and you will be in charge of getting things back to normal.
PHOTOS WITH THE EASTER BUNNY.
GEMINI
Scorpio, you may need to take a look at your finances and any things you can do to address any issues. Tweak things that have not been working as you had hoped.
SAGITTARIUS
Gemini, though many things can induce stress, the infectious sound of children's laughter will quickly take you out of a slump. Take some time to enjoy the simpler things in life.
There are some happy moments in your immediate future, Sagittarius. This will make any difficult days in your recent past seem well worth it.
CANCER
CAPRICORN
Cancer, some issues that require your attention arise at the office even though you may feel you have already devoted enough time to work responsibilities this week.
Capricorn, take a few moments to think about what you expect from a particular person and then develop a strategy that will bring you to that end. It sounds easy, but it will require effort.
LEO
AQUARIUS
A memorable night is on the horizon, Leo. It may be Wednesday or Thursday, so plan to look your best on those days. Romance could be in the air as well.
VIRGO Virgo, before reacting to something this week, take a few deep breaths before saying or doing anything. This way you can be sure you are not engaging in a knee-jerk reaction.
Sometimes things last, but other times they fizzle away, Aquarius. You may not be able to predict the outcome of everything, but you can take steps to protect the things you want to save.
PISCES Others will quickly figure out that there is no one quite like you, Pisces. You are a great friend to be around.

Strong Peninsula showing at awards ceremony hosted by Surrey Board of Trade
Women in business honoured at luncheon Alex Browne Staff Reporter
South Surrey singer/actress/director Wendy Bollard, Ocean Park gift and home decor store owner Jill Martyniuk and White Rock resident and Guildford Town Centre general manager Peggy White are among winners of the 2013 Surrey Women In Business Awards. The fourth-annual awards, sponsored by the Surrey Board of Trade, were presented Wednesday (March 13) at the Sheraton Guildford Hotel. Bollard, artistic director of Peninsula Productions, was recognized in the innovator category, while Martyniuk, owner of Romancing The Home, was the recipient in the entrepreneur category. White, who was awarded in the corporate/leadership category, hit the headlines for a completely different reason last year when she was injured by a hit-and-run driver while riding her bike on 16 Avenue. Other winners were Christine Trischuk, of Christine Trischuk Consultants, in the professional category; and Christiana Flessner of the Canadian Wheelchair Foundation, who won in the not-for-profit leadership category. Bollard, who co-founded Peninsula Productions two years ago, has used her extensive experience in singing, acting, teaching and managing businesses in all areas of running the organization. Most recent of her ventures for the group, which has presented music concerts, children’s events and plays, was directing the wellreceived production of Agnes of God at the Coast Capital Playhouse.

Winners at the 2013 Surrey Women in Business Awards – handed out March 13 at the Sheraton Guildford Hotel – were (left to right) Christiana Flessner, Jill Martyniuk, Peggy White, Christine Trischuk and Wendy Bollard. Martyniuk, who was voted president of the Ocean Park Business Association last year, is founder of the annual Christmas In Ocean Park week, and champions the work of local artisans and home-based businesses by presenting it in her store. White, who has been general manager
of Guildford Town Centre since 2006, has been focused on redevelopment of the centre, one of the largest such projects in the country, for the past two years. Trischuk, who manages six internal staff and five independent contractors for Westland Air Conditioning, is also
executive co-ordinator of the Valley Women’s Network. Flessner is the founding executive director of the Canadian Wheelchair Foundation and noted as a public educator on disability, both nationally and internationally.

Changes to Time Limits for Civil Action in BC On June 1, 2013, BC will change the Limitations Act. That is the law dealing with the length of time you have to start an action to sue in civil court. In general, starting June 1, 15 years, down from 30 years, from the act or omission that caused the claim to start the Court action. But if you knew or ought to have known that you could sue someone, you have only 2 years from the date you discovered that you could sue to start the Court action. If you miss one or both of these time limits, you will not be able to sue. There are some situations where these new time limits do not apply. These exceptions include situations when a different law sets a specific time limit, claims for possession of land by life tenant, claims for assault in civil court, claims for unpaid child or spousal support, and for the collection of fines. Whether these new time limits will effect you will depend on when you discovered or ought to have discovered that you had a claim, when the act that caused the claim took place, and whether a court action was started before June 1, 2013. To find out how this change applies to your civil case, please consult your lawyer.

force on the Canadian blues scene, bringing together the licks, lyrics and powerhouse vocals to carry the idiom forward in the 21st century. Born in Halifax, N.S., but raised in Ottawa and Victoria, B.C., he became a professional guitarist at age 15, and paid his dues with many gigs in smoky bars and recordings as a sideman with the likes of Herbert Sumlin, Cash McCall, and Son Seals. Johnson, who sold out his last concert with the White Rock Blues Society in 2007, has latterly come into his own with Still Blue, his third CD, which clicked with critics and public alike, thanks to his original guitar tone, his full voice, and the quality of his original songwriting. Tickets ($20) are available from Surfside Guitars, Tapestry Music and online at https://tickets.surrey. ca
As part of the ongoing Irish Festival spearheaded by Semiahmoo Arts, The Irish Club of White Rock and Tourism White Rock, ‘gastro-pub’ Slainte by the Pier on Marine Drive will host an Irish poetry night – featuring the works of Seamus Heaney on March 20.

Social Justice Film Fest ‘Religulous,’ comedian/political satirist Bill Maher’s irreverent and deliberately provocative take on world religions, will be the next film in the the White Rock Social Justice Film Society’s ongoing program, March 22 at 7 p.m. at First United Church, 15385 Semiahmoo Ave. (near Buena Vista Avenue and Centre St.) Maher’s stinging interviews, barbs and rants pose some serious questions about the follies and fallabilities of the organized religions of many cultures, although the film also has its share of detractors for setting up “straw man” arguments, and using extremist attitudes as a basis for attacking all faith-based beliefs. There will be a discussion

Swing Into Spring Noted local DJ Jose Manzano, sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of White Rock, will be spinning tunes of many genres to tempt Peninsula residents onto the dance floor at Swing Into Spring, March 23, 6 p.m., at the Royal Canadian Legion Crescent Branch 240 (2643 128 St.). The event is a fundraiser for the Kiwanis Children’s Cancer Program (KCCP).

The dinner-dance will also feature a roast beef repast plus silent auction, door prizes and a 50-50 draw.

White Rock Christian finishes second in boys hoops provincials
WRCA edged by Grove in final
Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

Despite entering the tournament as one of the lowest seeds, the Elgin Park Orcas fought their way on to the podium at B.C. Grade 8 Girls Basketball Championships earlier this month at Pitt Meadows Secondary. Elgin Park, seeded 15th in the 16-team tournament, wound up placing third overall in the provincial tourney. “It was absolutely a great run – the girls just came together at the right time,” said coach Dale Alparaque. “We just started making shots, and doing all the little things right, like playing defence, rebounding.” In their first playoff game, Elgin Park knocked off No. 2-ranked Sir Winston Churchill (Vancouver) by a 39-27 score, and in quarter-finals edged Surrey’s Holy Cross 31-28. In semifinals, the Orcas were tripped up 47-26 by the Seycove Skyhawks, but rebounded in the bronze-medal tilt, beating KVR Middle School (Penticton), 41-28. The championship was won by Surrey’s Panorama Ridge. Elgin’s Bella Gresty was named to the second all-star team, and Alparaque said point guard Maryan Budiman was also a key cog in the team’s run. “(Budiman) was one of the main reasons why we went so far,” Alparaque said.

t was close but no cigar once again for the White Rock Christian Academy Warriors at the BC Boys AAA Basketball Championships. The Warriors – who lost the provincial championship game in 2008 and 2010 – were edged this time by the Walnut Grove Gators 59-53 Saturday night at a raucous, jam-packed Langley Events Centre. And while the game was heartbreaking for the Warriors – and the hundreds of blue-clad fans who populated the north-end of the arena – the game was sweet vindication for the Gators, who lost last year’s final to the Terry Fox Ravens after letting a fourth-quarter lead slip away. There would be no slipping this time, however, as Walnut Grove, led by Grade 11 star and tournament MVP Jadon Cohee, opened up a nine-point lead earlier in the fourth quarter, but White Rock – who trailed most of the game, but not by more than single digits – battled back to tie the game. As the final minutes ticked off the clock, Cohee scored the go-ahead basket on a spinning drive to the hoop to put his team up 55-53, and then Grove hit their free throws down the stretch to win by six, giving the Langley school it’s first-ever boys basketball provincial title. “You never want to lose your last game, especially when it’s the championship game,” said WRCA coach Dale Shury. “It was so close. Even when they opened it up to nine, I didn’t think they were going to run away with it. I knew we’d be able to tighten it back up again, and we did. We just couldn’t quite get there.” Neither team shot particularly well – White Rock was 31.7 per cent from the floor, while Walnut Grove shot 34.4 per cent – but it was a handful of WRCA turnovers that hampered the comeback. “We did have some sloppy, unforced turnovers, especially

At BC Junior Boys Basketball Championships, held March 6-9 at Vancouver College, the Semiahmoo Totems lost their first game but won the last to close out their season. In Game 1, Semi lost 76-52 to Burnaby South. In their second game later that day, the Totems defeated Fleetwood Park, 55-39. Semi then lost to Walnut Grove, but wrapped up with a 49-43 win over the Handsworth Royals. Both Patrick Dujmovic and Elias Ellison picked up player-of-thegame awards during provincials.
Surrey’s Michael Santaguida, Langley’s James Barr pitch shutouts on weekend
Eagles, Rivermen split first two playoff games Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter
The Surrey Eagles and Langley Rivermen alternated shutouts on the weekend, leaving their BC Hockey League first-round series tied at 1-1 through the first two games. Game 3 was played at the Langley Events Centre Monday night after Peace Arch News deadlines. Friday’s opener at South Surrey was a tightly contested affair, with Eagles’ netminder Michael Santaguida stopping all 32 Langley shots he faced. Surrey managed just 28 shots on Langley keeper James Barr,

› from page A21 led by a 14-point effort from Peter Spangehl, while Tyus Allen had 13 points, 12 rebounds and five assists. Sam Ykema had 13 points and Vartan Tanelian had 10. The two squads were no strangers to each other, having played three times this season, with White Rock winning twice. WRCA edged the Gators in double overtime in the Legal Beagle tournament, and also got the better of their rivals at Vancouver College’s Emerald tourney. Walnut Grove beat White Rock in the Fraser Valley finals. “We knew going in how tough it was going to be,” Shury said. “We’re pretty well-matched with them across the board… at the beginning of the season, I really thought we’d be one and two, us and Grove, and here we are. They just got this one.” Though they’ve now lost their last three trips to the finals, White Rock has been among the most consistent B.C. AAA teams in the last decade. Aside from a misstep in 2011 when they missed the tournament entirely, WRCA has finished no worse than fourth since 2006. They last won a B.C. title in 2005. The game was the culmination of what Shury called “a three-year ride” for the Warriors; as juniors, the group won a provincial title.

CLARKE, Frederick Lloyd February 7, 1920 - March 7, 2013
“Blessed are the pure of heart, for they will see god”. Lloyd Clarke passed away peacefully with his loving family by his side on March 7 at the Peace Arch Hospital in White Rock, BC. Lloyd leaves behind his wife of 70 years Sylvia Clarke; his sons, Robert Clarke and Donald (Anne) Clarke, his Grandchildren Christopher (Ling) Clarke, Geoffrey (Aaryon) Clarke, Sean Clarke (Sarah Kilback), Paul (Kristina) Clarke, and his great grandchildren Tim, Krystenne, and Tara.

Lloyd’s passion for art, music and of course the Toronto Blue Jays will be carried on by his loving family and he will be forever in our hearts. We would like to say a special thank you to the doctors, nurses and staff at the Peace Arch Hospice for the special care given in his final days. There will be no service held at this time.

She is also survived by Tanya (Henk) Hockley, nieces, Lynda Veillette and Jennifer, nephews Ernie, George and Dwayne Locke, Blaine and Maurice O’Hara, and George and Jim Veillette.

WILLIAMS, June Moira Our beloved aunt, June Moira Williams, whose nursing career began in Africa and ended in the Fraser Valley, has died at the age of 82 at Peace Arch Hospital in White Rock after a lengthy battle with cancer. June was born in Wales at the outset of the Depression, and did her nursing training in post-war Britain. In the 1950’s, she moved to the Gold Coast (now Ghana), delivering babies at a bush hospital where she was the only nurse for more than 100 miles. She later worked at a teaching hospital in Nigeria. After moving to Canada in 1958, June served as the matron of the Yellowknife hospital, and as a public health nurse in the Kootenays, Nanaimo, Langley and White Rock. She was predeceased by her sister, Dilys Speight, who died last July, and by her brother-inlaw, Peter, who died last October. June will be missed by her friends and by her nephews Duncan (Betty) of Tofino, Andrew (Dolores) of Penticton and her niece Vanessa (Johnny) of Edmonton.
She is also survived by her great nephews and nieces Matthew, Elizabeth, Julia, Eric, Emily and Jessica. A private family ceremony to follow. Please consider making a donation to Doctors Without Borders Canada in June’s memory.
