$571,000 Newton home seized by the province

Grow-op costs Surrey man his house

by Sheila Reynolds

GROWING POT in his house has cost

a Surrey man his home.

A Supreme Court justice has ordered the Newton-area, three-storey house be seized by the province under the Civil Forfeiture Act. William Khan Munnue, who is also known as Ali Haydar Kazan, Ali Kazan, and Eldon Perryon, admitted having 80 marijuana plants on the upper floor of his home, but denied knowledge of a grow-op in the two-bedroom basement suite.

The house is located at 12430 74 Ave. Munnue resided on the top two floors, and rented out the lower level.

During his trial, Munnue represented himself and claimed not only was he unaware of the basement plants, but his own operation had only been running for six days prior to a police search in November 2009.

He argued seizing his home would be disproportionate and unfair.

Judge orders mom and son out of Guildford unit after ‘reprehensible’ behaviour

by Sheila Reynolds AFTER YEARS of being noisy, spitting at other

residents, and using obscene language and gestures, a Surrey woman and her adult son have been ordered to move out and sell their condo within 30 days.

B.C. Supreme Court Justice Richard Blair made the ruling against Rose Jordison and her son Jordy last week after the mom and son were found in contempt of court for breaching an

injunction issued last January.

Blair had actually ordered the Jordisons to sell their condominium in Guildford in January 2012 due to numerous harassment and noise complaints from neighbours in her complex that amounted to what he called an “assault” on other residents.

But the Jordisons appealed the ruling and won, allowing them to stay in their home. However, the court still ordered that the Jordisons abide by the strata rules and refrain from being

excessively loud, making obscene gestures, or uttering offensive comments at other strata members or their families.

The Jordisons, according to the latest court decision, breached those orders.

The strata has spent several years trying to deal with the harassment of other condo owners, imposing about $20,000 in fines for breaking rules and bylaws between 2007 and 2011.

Health cash flow not unfair: Minister Victoria addresses complaints on low per-capita funding in Fraser Health

by Jeff Nagel HEALTH MINISTER Margaret Mac-

Diarmid says B.C.’s health funding formula doesn’t short-change Fraser Health, even though the health authority receives the lowest amount of funding of any region on a per capita basis.

She spoke out after critics seized on a recent report of B.C.’s Auditor General that shows Fraser Health’s $2.8-billion budget for 2011/12 works out to average spending of $1,585 per resident, much less than other regions.

It’s almost twice as high at $3,000 per person in the Vancouver Coastal region, Margaret while per MacDiarmid capita spending ranges from $2,370 to $2,550 in the Interior, Northern and Vancouver Island health regions.

MacDiarmid said in an interview the allocations fairly reflect the differing needs of each region.

“The funding formula does make sense, but it’s not a sound bite,” she said.

“When you think about the complexity of some of our populations, like the Downtown Eastside, it’s not a matter of one size fits all.”

Surrey Coun. Mary Martin, who chairs Surrey’s health advisory committee, is the latest in the region to argue the numbers suggest unfair treatment.

“I just don’t get it,” she said, noting Surrey is the fastest-growing city in the province.

“We are tremendously underfunded,” Martin said See FUNDING page 5

Berner has third appeal dismissed Delta woman’s drunk driving jail sentence stands

by Adrian McNair

Carol Berner

THE DELTA woman convicted of killing four-year-old Alexa Middelaer in a 2008 drunk driving crash had her appeal of her two-and-a-half-year jail sentence dismissed by the B.C. Court of Appeal Thursday in Vancouver.

Carol Berner was convicted in 2010 of two counts of danger-

ous driving causing death and bodily harm, and two counts of impaired driving causing death and bodily harm.

Berner’s lawyer David Tarnow argued that a one-minute and 42-second video of Alexa Middelaer’s preschool Christmas play shown to the courtroom during the victim impact statement at sentenc-

ing was influential to the trial judge.

“To allow this to have been done at a sentencing hearing just escalated [emotions] to a level I haven’t seen in 36 years,” said Tarnow, adding this may have contributed to the length of the sentence.

ASK BETTY

A neighbour said the offensive behaviour of the Jordisons didn’t stop after last year’s court order, with noise, intentional harassment, insults, rude gestures, spitting, assaults, screaming, yelling, stomping, door slamming, and pounding on doors and walls continuing unabated.

She cited a pair of incidents last August and September when Jordy Jordison threw water and spat at her when she was on her patio, while another resident said Jordy, who is in his 20s and reportedly has a highfunctioning form of autism, had blocked her from using a stairwell and swore at her.

In his March 20 written decision, Justice Blair ruled that the Jordison’s behaviour “has remained similar” to that which led to the strata’s original complaint.

Dear Curious, Simply put – it’s very important! Your family is the earliest support system you have, and spending time with them can help alleviate the stress of some of life’s biggest challenges.

Make sure you never take those moments for granted.

Dear Betty, How important is it to spend time with family, really?

families together.

When police searched the home on Nov. 12, 2009, they began in the two-bedroom basement suite, where they found several garbage bags of marijuana plant clippings and tools. Mylar sheeting, often used by pot growers because its reflective surface maximizes light, covered the windows and floors of the bedrooms.

Police seized 41.34 kilograms of dried marijuana from the suite, valued at about $180,000.

On the main floor, a handgun magazine with one .45 calibre round was found in a desk drawer, as was a box containing 50 rounds of 9mm Luger ammunition. Above the desk, two envelopes with $4,700 cash were also discovered.

The 80 pot plants were found under lights in the master bedroom on the third floor. There was also Mylar on the floors and walls there, a ventilation system, plant fertilizer and a box of digital security cameras.

Munnue, who is single with no children, was never charged with any offence stemming from the police search, but admitted at trial that he was responsible for the marijuana grow operation on the third floor. He testified the two-bedroom basement suite had been vacant since Oct. 28, when his previous tenants left without notice. Munnue said he only went in the suite once after to clean up after they left.

Vancouver Supreme Court Justice Paul J. Pearlman didn’t buy

the homeowner’s story.

“I find that Mr. Munnue’s denial of any knowledge of the marijuana processing operation in the twobedroom suite is not credible,” Pearlman wrote in his March 12 decision. “He was acquainted with at least two of the persons involved. Those persons made no effort to conceal their presence on the property. Mr. Munnue had control of the two-bedroom basement suite. “ Pearlman called the grow-op “small but sophisticated” and pointed to the harm (electrical, violence) associated with such operations.

He ordered Munnue to vacate the house, which was assessed at $571,000 in 2011, and that the province seize it and sell it.

“I conclude further that the respondents have intentionally, wilfully, and in a blameworthy fashion disobeyed the order of this court,” wrote Blair.

Blair noted that neither Rose Jordison or her son appeared for a court date Jan. 24, 2013. He adjourned the matter to Feb. 18 due to their absence. Jordison emailed the court saying she was unavailable on that date as well, but the hearing proceeded without her.

While he called the Jordison’s behaviour “reprehensible” and it put them in contempt of a court order, Blair said it was not so egregious that it warranted jail time. A fine, he said, was also pointless as the Jordisons likely wouldn’t be able to pay.

The Jordisons have been given 30 days to vacate the condo or they’ll be arrested. If the condo is not sold by the owners within 30 days, the strata will have conduct of the sale, the court ordered.

Funding: Demographics a factor From page 3

“I find it a little bit astonishing and hard to believe that we are one of the lowest in per capita expenses.”

Martin was careful to acknowledge the province’s decisions to expand Surrey Memorial Hospital and build the Jim Pattison outpatient hospital nearby.

But she suggested the planned rebuild of B.C. Children’s Hospital should happen in Surrey, to better serve the younger population profile in Fraser, not at the current site in Vancouver.

“The ministry understands we are the fastest-growing region. But we’re always somehow behind.”

Abbotsford politicians also recently held up the per-capita funding gap as proof of inequity.

MacDiarmid said Fraser’s

growth has been recognized and it gets bigger annual funding increases – more than seven per cent on average over the past six years compared to less than five per cent elsewhere.

In terms of per-capita spending, MacDiarmid said comparisons to rural regions aren’t valid.

“If you look at a health authority like Vancouver Island or Interior or Northern Health Authority, there are some communities that are incredibly remote and they do require more funding,” she said.

“It’s just very difficult to serve them as efficiently as in an urban riding.”

Demographics are also factored in – Vancouver Island has a larger share of aging seniors who are more likely to need medical care than relatively young Fraser.

Fraser Health serves by far the most people – 1.77 million com-

pared to a population of about one million in Vancouver Coastal.

But Vancouver’s hospitals get more money – acute care spending there was $1.73 billion in 2011/12 compared to $1.63 billion in Fraser, according to the Auditor General’s report.

Vancouver Coastal also got much higher allocations for mental health and addictions as well as population health and wellness, while Fraser got more for residential care and home and community care.

MacDiarmid said one reason Vancouver Coastal gets more for acute care is its hospitals are the only ones where some specialized procedures are done, including all organ transplants, bone marrow transplants and cochlear implants.

He also argued the length of the sentence was out of step with other cases involving dangerous driving causing death, and with Berner’s lack of a criminal history she was a “perfect candidate for a community sentence.”

But B.C. Appeal Court Justices Christopher Hinkson, Anne MacKenzie, and Catherine Ryan determined the sentence was well within the allowable minimum of 18 months and seven years.

The Court of Appeal dismissed Berner’s appeal of her sentence but a written ruling will not be issued until a later date.

Berner can still take the appeal of her sentence to the highest court, the Supreme Court of Canada.

“This journey has taken almost five years, which is longer than my daughter was alive,” said Michael Middelaer, father of Alexa, outside the courtroom.

He called the appeal yet another step in the “realm of the ridiculous,” but that the family is committed to seeing the legal process to its conclusion.

As for the Christmas video, Middelaer didn’t think it was unduly influential to the sentencing process.

“The fact of the matter is, that video was brought in by our family to make the courts and society recognize what we are discussing, we’re discussing the loss of a child,” he said.

Berner had previously appealed her conviction to the B.C. Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court of Canada. In both cases, her appeals were dismissed.

Berner’s lawyers

argued the trial judge had erred in finding the destruction of Berner’s Oldsmobile by ICBC, before the defence could have it independently inspected for mechanical defects didn’t infringe on her right to make a full defence.

Transit for tunnel

RAESIDE

onsultation is underway regarding plans to replace the 54-year-old George Massey Tunnel.

The near constant gridlock caused by the relic from the 1950s and its poorly designed approaches costs the local economy millions of dollars annually, and local residents minutes and hours of their day, every day. At this point, due to its seismic vulnerability, the tunnel is estimated to have just 10-15 years more of useful life.

The South Arm of the Fraser River needs a new crossing to replace the George Massey Tunnel, that much is obvious.

But a solution that doesn’t put alternative modes of transportation at the forefront - instead of as an afterthought - is no solution at all.

HOV lanes, dedicated rapid bus lanes, pedestrian sidewalks, and cycling access will do more to alleviate local congestion than merely expanding vehicular capacity.

If given a viable, convenient, and cost-effective choice, commuters will more than happily leave their cars at home. Only when that happens will we see the gridlock lessen.

After all, do we want to end up like Houston or Los Angeles, where endless freeways have led to endless congestion?

A new crossing needs to be tolled to curb unnecessary single-passenger vehicle use and help recoup the cost of construction. A portion of this should also be earmarked for improvements to public transportation in the region.

A plan which pays only lip service to public transportation needs is not good enough. We don’t want to end up with the same congestion problem on the new Fraser crossing years down the road, and be a billion dollars poorer for the effort.

But that is precisely what will happen if funded public transportation options are not included in the Ministry of Transportation’s chosen option.

• Whatever direction you want the George Massey Tunnel to take, now is the time to have your say. The Ministry of Transportation public consultation process concludes next month, and residents have until April 2 to submit their feedback. For more information, visit www.masseytunnel.ca

JOB TRAINING

he B.C. election campaign that’s about to get underway will feature lots of talk about skills training. It will be everyone’s top priority, along with a dozen other top priorities.

But since elections are no time to deal with serious issues, don’t expect much frank discussion about ways to redirect our increasingly soft, urban society toward useful work. Somebody might be offended.

The B.C. Liberals see lots of skilled, technical jobs on the horizon, but they cut their skills training budget and many of their MLAs are also looking at a career change.

The B.C. school system, like that of other provinces, still pushes kids to university programs that lead to coffee-serving jobs and the need for another round of training.

This has been going on since the 1970s, and it’s not confined to B.C. The B.C. NDP apparently expects to coast to victory with the same empty rhetoric about “income inequality” and student debt that they’ve been using for years.

Their only discernible intent is to return

The new money is available only if the community leadership commits to a mandatory training component. They didn’t call it Idle No More, but that’s the gist of it.

Of course, no worker or province or band council is required to participate. They have the option to leave the federal money on the table.

But the NDP should note that the Canada Job Grant applies to union-run apprenticeship schools as well as those in community colleges and technical institutes. Saying no isn’t much of a choice.

Whatever grand promises the B.C. Liberals and NDP have written into their yetto-be-released election platforms, they will need to find the money to participate.

Surrey/North Delta Leader 7

Roll in a The option to die with dignity Three gents new transit authority ONLY A courageous and righteous individual

THE COLUMN “Fast Travel a

Transit priority” (Frank Bucholtz, The Leader, March 14) has got it wrong. It is not the speed of a transit system that attracts ridership, rather it is the overall speed of the transit trip that attracts the transit customer.

The problem with the SkyTrain light metro system is its widely spaced, which gives the light metro its faster commercial speeds, but gives slower overall travel times because the transit customers must take longer to walk to stations or even longer if a transit customer has to take a bus first. According to TransLink, 80 per cent of SkyTrain’s passengers first take a bus then transfer onto the metro.

Ever notice that no one builds SkyTrain anymore? Light rail generally has closer spaced stations, which gives the transit customer more options for travel and a gives a generally faster overall travel time.

TransLink has never understood this simple fact and continues building light-metro with widely spaced stations, which in turn need a shadow bus service to convey transit customers to the metro. This is an expensive proposition and gives a good indication why TransLink has financial problems.

Light rail is built on a transit route because it becomes cheaper to operate than buses when traffic flows exceed 2,000 persons per hour per direction. Generally it costs about half as much to operate LRT than buses.

TransLink’s problem is that its bureaucrats keep planning LRT as a poor man’s SkyTrain and BRT (bus rapid transit) as a poor man’s LRT. TransLink has never considered planning light rail as an economic transit alternative, instead plans LRT as a cheaper appendage of SkyTrain – a very expensive mistake.

TransLink’s ponderous bureaucracy has never recognized modern light rail as a powerful and affordable tool for urban transit solutions.

Rather, TransLink reluctantly plans for LRT because it is told to do so.

The rot has gone far too long within TransLink for any good to happen and if LRT is to be successful in Surrey, a new transit authority, with no ties to TransLink, must come into being to ensure success.

can advance the cause of human rights when confronted with powerful conformist forces.

In 2012 a B.C. Supreme Court judge proclaimed the laws against physician-assisted suicide for the terminally ill violated the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Stephen Harper’s Conservative government is currently wasting time and money challenging the B.C. judge’s ruling. The issue may eventually end up in the Supreme Court of Canada.

The federal government is arguing physicianassisted suicide could lead to patient abuse.

Many terminally ill patients are already suffering abuse. They are trapped in an insensitive

institutional maze, stripped of their dignity and powerless to control their destiny.

If Harper had compassion, imagination and courage, he would have legislation drafted that would grant physician-assisted suicide to those who want that option while fully protecting those who do not. Unfortunately, there is no one in Harper’s government with enough nerve to say the state has no business lengthening the pointless suffering of terminally ill human beings who want the right to request a dignified and painless death.

I WOULD like to thank the “Three Musketeers.”

On March 4, I was filling up my vehicle at the Shell station at 276 Street and Fraser Highway.

After I filled the car, I was unable to start it.

Three men noticed my difficulty and came to help. They pushed the car to the side of the parking lot and stayed with me while I called a tow trucks for help. They then insisted on taking me back to my home, saying they were the Three Musketeers and wanted to help a lady in distress.

I do not know their names, but I know they are from Surrey and I want to publicly thank them.

There are still gentlemen in the world.

FILE PHOTO / THE LEADER

A letter writer is pleased that government is beginning the plans to upgrade the George Massey Tunnel and urges the public to take part in the consultation.

GEORGE MASSEY Tunnel users face significant traffic congestion.

The existing crossing is over capacity during the morning and afternoon rush hours, and near capacity throughout the day.

Constructing another crossing or upgrading the tunnel will be a costly and disruptive process and we need to be sure it will address our challenges and meet future needs.

Kudos to government for beginning planning now by consulting with residents and other users and committing to address this transportation and infrastructure issue. More than 1,100 people participated in Phase 1 consultation, which focused on developing an understanding of user needs, challenges and the importance of the crossing.

Phase 2 of the consultation is beginning now. Five options to upgrade this crossing are under consideration and we need to make our voices heard. Participate in the conversation.

Bizarre democracy may repeat itself

RE: “FREE enterprise supporters: Unite!” Letters, March 19.

There’s much anticipation as to the “ethnic-voter” scandal effects on the B.C. Liberals’ chances in the imminent provincial election. Such a question may still be a little too presumptive, and a little too hasty – although I personally hope that the Liber-

als are finally thrown out of office.

One must take note that the provincial NDP had in fact won the 1996 provincial election with a smaller percentage of votes (by about three points) than that of the then-still-Opposition B.C. Liberals.

How is such an injustice within “democracy” possible?

The NDP won a large majority of their seats mostly with a far slimmer margin than the riding wins by the Liberals.

Bizarre? Yes. Impossible to re-occur in the upcoming election? Not at all.

Attacker no longer the man he once was Quintana

THE LEADER newspaper states that an axe attacker is out of prison (March 21).

Whatever happened to accepting a man once he’s paid his debt to society? Besides, the statement is incorrect – the man who once

committed an axe attack is no longer that kind of man.

I know Enrique Quintana and worked with him in prison as his writing instructor.

The man I know is very sorry for the damage he’s done to Michael

Levy. Enrique has won awards in prison for articles he’s written, not about his favourite hockey team, but about courage and hope. He’s a thoughtful man, but a quiet one.

The goal now is to guide Enrique on

to a good path. I’m sure that’s the plan of Corrections Canada.

It should be the goal of the media as well, instead of using him for the salacious interests of its worst readers.

Court strikes out baseball dad’s assault claim Judge finds Cloverdale fight between two parents was consenusal

by Sheila Reynolds

Benoit Charland’s sons was playing, but upon arriving late, Charland told the boy to go home.

When he went home upset, Wheeler went to the field to talk to Charland.

During the conversation, a fight began, during which Charland claimed Wheeler assaulted him. Wheeler, however, said Charland attacked him first and that he acted in selfdefence. An attending police officer deemed

A CloverdAle father’s

claim that he was assaulted by another dad at a Pee Wee baseball game has been dismissed by a B.C. Supreme Court justice.

The incident happened during a boy’s game in Cloverdale’s Greenaway Park in May 2011.

David Wheeler’s youngest son was scheduled to umpire a game in which one of

St. Oswald’s

the fight consensual.

Charland, 48, ended up suing Wheeler and the Cloverdale Minor Baseball Association, but the claim against the association was dropped before the trial.

At the trial last fall, Charland didn’t deny he had sent Wheeler’s son home, but testified didn’t want to speak with Wheeler because he was sitting eating a meal. He said he politely asked Wheeler to wait, but that Wheeler

called him an obscene name. He said Wheeler became more heated and when Charland finally did start to get up, Wheeler punched him in the eye. The pair then grappled on the grass before being separated.

Charland claimed he also suffered a contused kidney as a result of Wheeler kicking him – something he never told police – and that he was unable to work as a painting contractor for

about a month because of his injuries.

He said prior to the fight, he told Wheeler “I’ll do you later,” which he said meant “I will meet you later.”

Wheeler testified he did not go to the ballpark to fight, but to resolve the situation in hopes Charland would talk to his upset son.

He said Charland told him to f--k off when he asked to talk. He was surprised and admitted calling him a derogatory

name in return. As he walked away, he heard Charland say “I’ll do you later,” and when he turned around, Charland came at him with his arms out and he reacted out of fear and threw a punch.

In a March 20 B.C. Supreme Court decision, Madam Justice Jeanne Watchuk determined neither man was the victim and that the scrap between the two dads was consensual.

She didn’t buy Char-

land’s explanation that “I’ll do you later” meant “I will meet you later,” instead finding that by making the statement, Charland “formed the intention to fight.” By turning back toward an angry Charland, Wheeler also willingly engaged in the brawl.

She denied he kicked Charland, however.

Watchuk awarded no damages to either party, but said Wheeler was entitled to court costs.

Trail of blood leads to capture Would-be robber jailed

by Alex Browne A mAn who has admitted

he entered Surrey’s South Point Pub last year wearing a mask and waving a loaded pistol has been sentenced to three years in jail.

Robbie Lee Morris was handed the sentence in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster last month by Justice Robert Crawford, after pleading guilty to possession of a loaded, restricted and unlicensed firearm.

Crawford noted the New Year’s Day incident, in which shots were fired, could have had tragic results.

Morris walked in on a male and female employee cleaning up after New Year’s celebrations in the early hours of Jan. 1. Although shots were fired, Crawford said, Morris was disarmed in the subsequent scrap.

In addition, Morris was punched, gouged in the eye and smashed over the head with a bar stool, and it was his blood that marked his path when he fled from the pub.

In imposing a sentence, Crawford noted that Canada has a restrictive view on guns “particularly to guns and their use in any criminal behaviour.”

Restore elected control of TransLink: Review No direct accountability to voters

by Jeff Nagel

explore options, perhaps in concert with university academics and other experts.

“There has to be an elected person or persons at the top who are responsible,” said Mayors Council chair Richard Walton. “I’m hoping this will elevate

TransLink’s disjointed

and unaccountable governance system should be rebuilt, with elected representatives put back in charge.

That’s the main finding of a new report commissioned by the Metro Vancouver regional mayors’ council, which has repeatedly called on the province to make reforms.

The TransLink governance review, led by consultants Acuere Consulting, doesn’t recommend one specific model, but examined practices in 13 cities around the world.

It concludes TransLink’s structure with an appointed board of directors in control of all decisions except major revenue increases is an anomaly worldwide, while other jurisdictions invariably have elected representatives in charge who answer democratically to the people being served.

The report found accountability is “almost completely missing” from TransLink’s current structure and it’s “less than ideal” on transparency, responsiveness, clarity of purpose, advocacy and productive relationships.

“The province has exercised a dominant interest, feeling free to impose its priorities on the region and reluctant to provide a role in transit for local government institutions it did not directly or indirectly control,” it says.

The release of the report, which cost $74,000, comes just ahead of the provincial election and mayors hope the province will immediately agree to

the level of conversation considerably.”

TransLink used to have a board of directors consisting of elected mayors and city councillors, chosen via the Metro Vancouver regional district board.

Former Transporta-

tion Minister Kevin Falcon scrapped that system in 2008, calling it a “disaster circus” of infighting by local politicians, who nearly refused to build the Canada Line ahead of the 2010 Olympics.

In their place came the unelected “professional” board consisting of corporate directors with expertise in areas like finance, real estate and engineering.

The Mayors’ Council on Regional Transportation was set up where mayors appointed the board directors, but could only choose from a tight short list vetted mainly by business groups allied with the province.

The main role left to the mayors council was to approve or reject any significant fare or tax increases to fund expansion projects that the board proposed.

The result, mayors charge, has been a system where they are left shouldering the blame for the increased bill to drivers, transit users and property owners, but

without any control over the actual priorities.

“It’s not clear at all to the public which elected people are responsible,” Walton said.

“As for the appointed board, for the most part nobody knows who they are and they’re not accountable to the public. All the business is done in-camera, in private.”

The 2008 reform was an attempt by the province to hand over and deflect responsibility for the challenges at TransLink, Walton said, but he noted the province remains an integral player because any new capital funding needs Victoria’s approval.

The challenges will persist, he said, no matter which party is in government after the May 14 election.

The review said logical reform options include:

- Assigning transportation governance to Metro Vancouver’s board or a committee.

- Giving full control of TransLink policy to the mayors’ council.

- Creating a new TransLink oversight board appointed by either the Metro Vancouver board or mayors’ council from among their members.

A management-level board would still be needed to oversee dayto-day operations, the report says.

It wouldn’t be a perfect solution to the accountability issue.

Politicians picked by their cities to represent them at Metro Vancouver and then subsequently selected for TransLink duty would still face the same criticism as the old board – that they’re at best indirectly elected and not directly accountable

Kevin Falcon

Richard Walton to voters for what happens at TransLink.

What exists in Stockholm and London – the two cities whose models scored best in the review – can’t be easily replicated here because their transport representatives are directly elected regionally, unlike Metro’s system.

Some observers noted to the reviewers that Metro Vancouver has trouble dealing with divisive issues, usually deferring to a local city’s wishes rather than resolutely enforcing a regional perspective when needed.

Their fear is that any restructured TransLink board that’s a subset of Metro’s board may have the same problem.

One key consideration stressed in the report and by Walton is that the resulting system needs to not just effectively plan transportation for a rapidly growing, underserved region, but ensure that’s well coordinated with land-use planning and economic development and not working at cross-purposes.

Another facet of TransLink governance is its independent commissioner, who advises the mayors on plans proposed by the board and has some power of his own to veto unreasonable fare increases.

The review said there are mixed opinions on the commissioner’s value, with most players close to TransLink doubting it improves decision-making or accountability.

Family law aims to prevent disputes New legislation took effect March 18

by Tom Fletcher

mortgages, loans from family members, credit card and income tax debt.

As with a divorce, inheritances and property brought into the relationship by each partner are not shared.

Attorney General Shirley Bond introduced the changes as a way to keep family breakups out of court, and to take the “win-lose” terminology out of parenting.

The traditional terms, “custody” and “access” of children, have been dropped from the Family Law Act, replaced by “parental responsibilities,” “parenting time” and “guardianship.”

The new act also makes it an offence for one parent to violate an agreed schedule for shared parenting.

The law also requires parents who wish to relocate to give 60 days’ notice to those authorized to have contact with children.

A mAjor overhaul of

B.C.’s family law is now in force, aimed at reducing disputes over shared parenting responsibilities and division of property when couples split up.

The Family Law Act was passed in 2011 with support from both the B.C. Liberal government and the NDP Opposition. It took effect March 18.

One of the main changes is extending property division rules of marriage to unmarried couples who have lived together in a “marriage-like relationship” for at least two years.

Those rules mean property acquired during a relationship is divided equally, unless the couple sign an agreement to split assets differently. Debts accumulated during the relationship must also be shared, including

That applies whether the children are involved in the relocation or not.

When the changes were debated in the legislature, NDP justice critic Leonard Krog spoke in support, noting that B.C. has one of the highest levels of family disputes in Canada.

“If we can keep people out of court, if we can let them settle their affairs in a more friendly and amicable way, then this is all to the good,” Krog said. “It means that people can get on with their lives. It will mean less emotional damage to children.”

Details of the new rules and answers to frequently asked questions are available on the B.C. government website at www.justicebc.ca/en/ fam/.

The site also has contact information for family justice centres that offer counselling at no charge.

dent report on a proposed heavy oil refinery near Kitimat, which concludes that the project has “economic merit.”

The report, by California-based Navigant Consulting Inc., examined the proposed refinery design and also assessed markets for refined fuels in Asia.

“Such a refinery would provide incremental longterm benefits to the region, compared to export of unfinished feedstock,” the report states.

The consultants recommend that B.C. approve a design for the plant that produces a variety of fuels, including gasoline, diesel and jet fuel. The report endorses a conventional design for the refinery, proposed by newspaper publisher David Black last summer.

Black, owner of Black Press Ltd. (which includes The Leader newspaper), established a separate company called Kitimat Clean Ltd. last year. In early March, he announced that he is finalizing details for $25 billion in financing and purchase agreements for the gasoline, diesel and jet fuel that the plant would produce.

According to Black’s plans, the $16-billion refinery would require another $9 billion in construction, including six product pipelines to Douglas Channel to load ships with refined fuel, and a natural gas pipeline to run a power plant, fire refining equipment and supply hydrogen for a new heavy oil refining process.

Energy Minister Rich Coleman said the Navigant report cost $40,000, and would be done by the province for any proposal of this scale, through the province’s major projects office. If built as planned, the Kitimat refinery would be the biggest private investment in B.C. history.

The Navigant report describes a conventional coking process that extracts a coal-like byproduct from heavy oil. Black announced March 6 that his team is revising its environmental permit application to use a new process that would convert the coke and increase liquid fuel output.

A conventional refinery of that size would fill 100 rail cars per day with petroleum coke, which is typically sold as fuel for high-temperature metal processing.

A process patented last year by Calgary-based Expander Energy adapts a technique developed a century ago in Germany to convert coal to synthetic fuels.

Small parties stake out election turf B.C. Conservatives, Greens release policy platforms

by Tom Fletcher AS THE NDP widens its lead over the governing B.C.

Liberal party in a new poll, the B.C. Conservatives and B.C. Green party are hoping an early rollout of their policy platforms will help their support grow.

An Angus Reid public opinion poll released Thursday showed the NDP the choice of 48 per cent of decided voters, up one point since February. The B.C. Liberals were down three points to 28 per cent of decided voters.

The B.C. Conservatives and B.C. Greens were both up slightly in voter intention, tied at 11 per cent support. The poll surveyed 809 B.C. adults March 18 and 19, claiming a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 per cent.

The B.C. Conservatives released their “pre-election platform” Thursday, describing it as a “living document” that could change before the May 14 provincial election. It devotes much of its 28 pages to criticizing the province’s 20-year record on taxes, spending and debt.

As party leader John Cummins has signalled, the platform promises the elimination of the five-year-old carbon tax on fossil fuels. It emphasizes the dispropor-

tionate impact the tax has on rural and northern parts of B.C., but does not specify if offsetting income tax cuts would be reversed to make up the revenue to the province.

The B.C. Conservatives’ pledge to balance budgets is emphasized, but the platform doesn’t identify any reduced spending or tax increases. It decries the low health care spending relative to other provinces, and also calls for an unspecified increase in justice system budgets.

The B.C. Green party’s 40-page platform contains many promises, from creating “green-collar jobs” to doubling B.C.’s park area to 20 per cent over the next 100 years.

The Green platform is also described as a “living document,” released last November and updated at the end of January. It also lacks costing for an array of costly policies, including 24-hour medical clinics in rural areas and replacing all existing income assistance programs with a “guaranteed liveable income” for everyone.

The Greens also vow to reduce taxes on businesses that promote health, phase out medical premiums and eliminate gambling in B.C.

Eagles a win away from conference final Surrey takes a 2-0 lead over the Chilliwack Chiefs in BCHL playoff series

by Nick Greenizan

Charlestown Chiefs goaltender Denis Lemieux – in a bid to find out who is in

In the 1970s clas-

sic movie Slapshot,

charge – famously asked “Who own the Chiefs?”

And while the answer to the goalie’s question

wasn’t the Surrey Eagles, they certainly had their way with the Chiefs – Chilliwack, not Charlestown – last weekend, winning twice to stake themselves to a 2-0 lead in their best-of-five second-round series.

On Friday, Surrey out-gunned the Chiefs 4-0, and followed up Saturday at South Surrey Arena with a comefrom-behind 5-4 win.

The Eagles are now just one win away from advancing to the BC Hockey League’s Coastal Conference finals. Game 3 of the series shifted to Chilliwack Monday night, but the game was played after press deadline.

In Game 1, the Eagles scored early and often, taking a 1-0 lead just 46 seconds into the game when Brady Shaw scored his third goal of the playoffs.

Demico Hannoun – who had a pair – and Trevor Cameron also bulged the twine behind Chilliwack netminder Mitch Gilliam before the first intermission.

With a 4-0 lead, the Eagles went into more of a defensive mode for the remaining two periods, as neither team was able to score over the final 40 minutes.

“We had a really good start in the first, obviously, scoring the four goals,” said Eagles head coach Matt Erhart. “And after that, we just played a real simple game with the lead, and kind of held on.”

Michael Stenerson picked up a pair of assists, and goaltender Michael Santaguida picked up his leaguebest second shutout of the post-season, stopping all 35 shots he faced. Among his best saves came in the second frame when he stopped Chiefs’ Ryan Donohoe from in close, and Josh Hansen also hit the post in the same period.

The only negative for Surrey was the team’s misfiring power-play, which went 0-for-10.

The Eagles scored first Saturday, too – Trevor Cameron converted an

Chilliwack scored three times in the second period – two off the stick of Donohoe, including one shorthanded – and Austin Plevy added the other.

Cameron again scored for the Eagles, who trailed 3-2 heading into the third period.

In the third, it was Cameron again who drew the Birds even, completing his hat trick 7:30 into the third period when his shot from the slot beat Gilliam.

Surrey took the lead five minutes later when Nic Pierog slid the puck into the net during a goal-mouth scramble.

Stenerson – who is third on the team with seven points in six playoff games – and Chillwack’s Spencer Graboski – who scored with his team’s net empty – traded goals in the final four minutes but the

home team couldn’t get the equalizer.

“We knew they’d come out really hungry, and they’re a very good team – they only had two less wins than us during the regular season,” Erhart said.

“But we’ve come back from being down a goal before, and there was no panic in our game.

“Going into the third, we just wanted to win the period, and that way we’d at least get it to overtime. But we knew we still had a chance to win it, too.”

Again, the Eagles’ normally potent powerplay sputtered, going 1-for-6.

With the series shifting to Chilliwack for the next two games, Erhart said the game plan would remain the same.

“Hopefully, for us, nothing changes,” he said. “We’ve beat them at home twice since Christmas, but they’re a good team. I assume it’ll be another good, close game.”

If Chilliwack wins Monday to extend the series, Game 4 would be tonight (Tuesday) in Chilliwack. Game 5, if necessary, would be Wednesday in South Surrey.

In the other Coastal Conference semifinal, the Alberni Valley Bulldogs lead the Victoria Grizzlies 2-0. Game 3 was played Monday night in Victoria.

In the BCHL’s Interior bracket, the West Kelowna Warriors and Penticton Vees are the last two teams standing, and will face off in the Interior Conference finals beginning March 29.
