After being released from jail, Brian Bylo (left) enjoys some fresh air with his father Gordon Bylo.

Canada has some of the best practices in the world when it comes to dealing with mental illness. They’re just not well-funded, experts say

by Kevin Diakiw

O

n Monday afternoon, Brian Bylo stepped out of a provincial jail after 75 days of incarceration and into a sunbathed path leading to his father’s car.

Three days ago, Bylo was released from the Fraser Valley Regional Correctional Facility after being locked up. Again.

Bylo has been to jail 30 times in the last four years, mostly for missing appointments with probation officers and court, as well as some petty theft offences.

The 30-year-old, who suffers from schizophrenia, made the unfortunate choice in 2008 to dabble with illicit drugs. Now, with coexisting conditions (addiction and schizophrenia), he is bounced between emergency wards that want him to deal with his

addiction, and treatment facilities that find it difficult working with serious mental illness.

On Monday, stabilized on antipsychotic medication, he was picked up by his father and Delta resident Gordon Bylo, who will take his son for a court-ordered stay at VisionQuest Recovery Society, a well-respected Surrey-based alcohol and drug recovery centre in Chilliwack.

Referendum on new TransLink taxes risks dividing the region: Watts

by Jeff Nagel THE B.C. Liberals’ surprise

pledge of a referendum in November 2014 on any new taxes or tolls for TransLink is getting mixed reaction from transportation watchers.

Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation B.C. director Jordan Bateman said the election promise unveiled Monday would give local voters the power to block any new revenue tool for transit expansion they decide is unjustified.

“That will really change the tenor of the discussion around TransLink,” Bateman said. “From my point of view, that’s great. Direct democracy is always the best democracy.”

Metro Vancouver mayors have asked the province for new funding sources – a vehicle levy, a share of carbon tax, a small regional sales tax or some form of road pricing – to give TransLink the money for a massive transit expansion that would include rapid transit through Surrey to Langley and west on Vancouver’s Broadway corridor to UBC.

Tears, cheers as Surrey child molester jailed 9 years James (‘Jim’) Cardno sexually assaulted 10 boys in Surrey, Ecuador

by Sheila Reynolds

EVAN SEAL / THE LEADER

James Cardno at Surrey court.

AS JAmeS CArdno was handcuffed and led out of a Surrey courtroom Tuesday afternoon, one of his victims stood and wept, knowing the man who sexually assaulted him and nine other boys will be behind bars for many years.

Cardno, who molested 10 boys and took pornographic photos of them, was

sentenced to nine years in prison by a Surrey Provincial Court judge.

Families of other victims clapped and cheered as Cardno was taken into custody by sheriffs.

Cardno, 48, pleaded guilty to 15 child sex and pornography charges last year.

He initially faced 31 charges.

On Monday, the court heard that Cardno met some of the boys while babysitting, while others he was introduced to through other children. Eight victims were from Surrey, while two were foster children from Ecuador. There is a ban on any information that could identify his victims.

Prior to handing down his sentence, Judge Peder Gulbransen said Cardno’s

crimes involved “careful conditioning” of boys who were mostly between the ages of 10 and 14 at the time of the assaults.

He described how Cardno would first get his victims accustomed to physical contact, through massages and games, and would then progress to physical touching and oral and anal sex.

“These are not isolated acts,” said Gulbransen, estimating there were hundreds of incidents of “unlawful touching.”

The crimes took place between 1993 and 2010. Cardno had plenty of video games at his home, provided the boys with alcohol and cigarettes, took them to paintball parks and even on some out-ofSee KIDS / Page 4

Surrey runners minutes away from the blast ‘Pandemonium everywhere’ as bombs rock race

by Kevin Diakiw If Surrey’S Dr. Ray Baker had

completed his estimated time of four hours in the Boston Marathon, he says he would have been blown up.

Baker was one of several runners from Surrey who crossed the finish line Monday, minutes before two explosions rocked the area, killing at least three people and injuring more than 100.

Baker said he expected to cross the line at four hours, which would have put him near the blast when the explosives went off.

But a pair of strong legs pounded him through the race in 3:52, putting the explosion about 15 minutes behind him.

According to initial reports, the explosions occurred at the 4:09:40 mark of the race, just before noon Pacific time.

“I was in that cluster at the end, and the explosion looked like it was about 100 metres from the finish line,” Baker told The Leader Monday.

South Surrey lawyer Alan Benson, 60, had finished the race and was about six blocks away when the unimaginable happened.

“All of a sudden we heard this massive explosion. I could see this huge ball of smoke where the finish line is,” Benson said.

He described what followed the explosions as “pandemonium everywhere,” as emergency crews made their way to the scene.

The 2013 Boston Marathon database notes 241 of the nearly 27,000 race competitors hail from B.C. Of those, 17 list Surrey and four list Delta as their hometown.

Kids: From disadvantaged homes From page 3

town trips.

Many of the kids were vulnerable and from disadvantaged homes, said Judge Gulbransen, and it was not uncommon for Cardno to give them money in return for sexual favours.

The investigation into Cardno’s activities began after one of the Surrey victims was taken to hospital suffering a psychotic episode and suicidal thoughts.

During that visit, the young man disclosed to a nurse that he’d been molested as a child by Cardno, as had several of his friends.

That led to a search of Cardno’s apartment in north Surrey, as well as his mother’s home in the Fraser Heights neighbourhood, where pornographic images were found on a hard drive stashed in a briefcase in a safe in a detached garage.

It was there the images of two brothers from Ecuador were discovered. Cardno had sponsored the kids as a foster parent, and during a trip to Ecuador, took naked photos of the boys, telling them it was Canadian custom.

Gulbransen said there is no doubt Cardno’s actions “have caused serious harm” to his victims, through it’s impossible to know the extent of that harm.

“The psychological wounds will probably fester for years,” Gulbransen said.

One of the victims mother’s submitted a victim impact statement to the court, describing that her son, now a young adult, continues to suffer from anxiety, depression and headaches and isolates himself from society.

Her family, she said, has been torn apart by the sexual abuse.

Gulbransen pointed to the fact Cardno didn’t seem to have any significant adult relationships.

“My assessment is that these boys were his community … his life,” the judge said, adding Cardno believed the kids were his friends and that the sexual acts were done with their consent.

A psychiatric report revealed Cardno has limited understanding of his actions and minimized the effect of his offences.

When asked why he did what he did, he answered “the opportunity was staring me in the face.”

His defence lawyer, Patrick Beirne, said it was clear Cardno is a “deeply flawed character.” He said Cardno’s mother and sister suspected something was up because he was hanging out with such young boys, but they never had any further information and nothing to confront him with. Both the mom and sister, said Beirne, believe Cardno simply never moved on from being a teenager himself.

Gulbransen credited Cardno for pleading guilty and sparing the victims the pain of having to testify. Cardno is not unrepentant, said the judge.

“There is still some, albeit faint, hope for him.”

As well as the prison term, Cardno will be added to the national sex offender registry, is banned from communicating with his victims, has a 10-year weapons prohibition and may have no contact with kids after his release from prison, except for incidental contact that may occur through lawful work.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

Will the deadly explosions at the Boston Marathon make you think twice about participating in public events?

To answer, go to the home page of our website at surreyleader.com

D

r. Joti Samra calls mental illness an “invisible condition,” noting that while it may be more serious, it’s not as obvious as a broken leg.

It’s an apt analogy, one that has been echoed by many people over the last six weeks, as The Leader examined the effects of mental illness in its “Hard to Help” series. (Read it online at surreyleader.com).

There was the tragic case of Janice Shore, beaten and left to die in a vacant lot in Whalley after a difficult life marked by episodes of manic depression and paranoid schizophrenia.

We learned how society has come full circle – from warehousing the mentally ill in jails more than 150 years ago, to creating phsychiatric asylums, to shutting those facilities down, to warehousing the mentally ill in jails.

Today in Surrey and elsewhere, there are people with mental health problems standing in food lines and left to languish on the streets.

We heard from devastated families desperate to find effective and lasting help for their loved ones.

Perhaps most importantly, we heard from the sufferers themselves, those who bravely agreed to talk to the media despite a formidble foe – stigma, which has been described by health care professionals as being worse than the disease itself.

Ashleigh Singleton and her father broke their silence for the first time about the dark family secret of schizophrenia.

And there was Brian Bylo, the former Holy Cross High School soccer star who was released from the Fraser Valley Correctional Facility on Monday after doing time for the most recent of his numerous brushes with the law.

He has been set free into a tentative future with a challenging dual diagnosis: schizophrenia and addiction.

When will he, and others like him, finally get the help they need?

Certainly, there are positive steps being taken in the right direction. Surrey has a new sobering centre up and running, an alternative to jail where those drunk or high on drugs can be kept safe and offered treatment.

Surrey RCMP has created a groundbreaking mental health liaison position that is successfully diverting the mentally ill from prison cells and into programs.

And Fraser Health Authority’s ACT (Assertive Community Treatment) program links those leaving hospital with stable housing and other supports.

These initiatives are saving taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars. But so much more can, and needs, to be done.

“There’s huge gaps that we still face,” says Dr. Samra. “We simply aren’t well equipped... If you look at us as a country, as a province, the mental health services just don’t get funded in the same way the physical health services do.”

A recent report by the Mental Health Commission of Canada recommended the nation increase the share of total health care dollars allocated to mental illness from seven to nine per cent over the next decade. The price tag for that increase would be about $4 billion. But that seems a small amount considering untreated mental health issues cost the Canadian economy about $50 billion annually.

However, even if the feds ante up, mental health must be a provincial priority.

B.C. is in the midst of an election campaign. What better time to elicit commitments from those who hold the purse strings?

Those who have the conviction to talk about an issue that is fraught with shame, denial, ignorance and neglect are doing their part by ushering mental illness out of the darkness and into the spotlight.

It’s time we all spoke up and demanded better resources for mental illness, an issue which directly affects one in five Canadians and indirectly impacts everyone.

TransLink referendum disregards youth

Re: “RefeRendum on new TransLink pro-

posal has friends, foes,” surreyleader.ca, April 15.

I would like to express my outrage to the idea of placing transit funding in the hands of a few million voters, none of which are going to be under 18 because those people are regarded as underage and have no say in their provincial government.

Public transit needs to be treated as a firstclass transportation system, not only because it’s the most sustainable and efficient way of moving people, but because it is relied on by many groups of people (particularly young

people and students) who will be hurt by the lack thereof.

By turning to a decision option that excludes the voices of the young population and creates the risk that those who do not care about young people will be favoured, the B.C. Liberals are continuing their consistent disrespect of the young population.

Remember the Liberals’ Bill 22? Because of their incompetence, B.C. now has the worst student-to-teacher ratio in Canada. The situation being faced by young people in B.C. today is already very tough, and a denial of their voice in defining their transportation

future will only make it worse.

Investing in transit is crucial to giving young people mobility choices that they need to pursue the opportunities and connections that will allow them to become productive members of society. Priorizing young people is important, because they can become the innovators that this world will need to solve global issues.

I will be voting for another party this season. Well, I would if I could, but I cannot vote. Unfortunately, I’m under 18.

Daryl Dela Cruz, Surrey

So many questions, but few answers

Thank you to Cyndie Richards

for opening her heart with courage and adding her voice to the injustices being done to our mentally ill.

Her letter (“Mark my words: This will end badly,” The Leader, March 28) accurately exposes the inadequacies and lack of facilities for our mentally ill and addicted loved ones. Her experience with the current system in trying to get help for her son is the norm in our communities. My husband Gordon and myself were featured in an earlier article with the same concerns for our son Brian (“Life behind an inch of glass,” The Leader, March 14).

Cyndie is entirely correct that her son’s “ability to choose his own health care or lack thereof ” makes our current system sicker than either of our sons. How on Earth is a psychotic individual, perhaps also using drugs, possibly able to make good decisions for him or herself?

Addiction is a mental illness. As a prominent B.C. psychiatrist has suggested, no one in their right mind would do to themselves what addicts do. Where are the institutions of days gone by that held individuals until they were stable enough to make clear healthy choices? Where are the awareness and compassion of our federal government, building more prisons and not state-of-the-art facilities, for our most vulnerable citizens? Why must a person be totally out of their mind to be admitted through the ER? Why are the mentally ill discharged into the streets of our community before proper extended treatment?

Most parents such as Cyndie

FILE PHOTO / THE LEADER

Virginia Bylo, here with husband Gordon, criticizes the government for leaving families to ‘single-handedly’ try to find help for their mentally ill loved ones.

Richards, Gordon, and myself have spent years and countless thousands of dollars, educating, advocating and caring for our beloved relations. She rightly states that we have become “the government’s dumping ground for the mentally ill.”

Can you imagine rushing your loved one, in the midst of a heart attack, to the hospital only to be told there are no beds or his attack is not severe enough to warrant bothering with? How about a woman with breast cancer being told that no chemo is available for her because her cancer in only in the early stages and must wait until it is more advanced to treat?

We are constantly being told that our son needs to recover from his addiction before treatment to his mental health is available.

Using this logic, we might consider having treatment denied to the obese individual with diabetes or the chronic smoker with lung disease. Concurrent disorders (the existence of two illnesses) such, as addiction and a mental illness, need to be treated simultaneously to be successful.

Although our son Brian is a danger primarily to himself, I totally appreciate Cyndie Richards’ frustration and despair that our complacency as a community will be responsible for the fates of both our sons as well as many others. We as individual families have had the life sucked out of us trying single-handedly to deal with this travesty.

It is not okay to stand by and do nothing. We are all responsible.

Re: “meTRo Vancouver should end

garbage incineration: Study.”

In today’s society, dealing with garbage is a growing problem when you consider how much waste we create. So of course the government wants incinerators that help with the problem. They get rid of a lot of garbage that could end up in landfills and can help power cities.

But incinerators are massive carbon emitters that add to the evergrowing problem of climate change.

The region wants to minimize garbage in our landfills, but what’s the point of that if it gets spewed into the air we breathe?

Landfills maybe aren’t the most environmental way to deal with garbage, but they are more secure than others.

Having garbage in a hole, under your feet, is better than having it around your head, in your lungs.

Thanks for the help

I would like to thank the two

good Samaritans who stopped to help me when I had a medical issue on April 8 on 176 Street.

I became extremely dizzy as I was driving and managed to pull the car over, turn the key off and put my hazard lights on.

They called for an ambulance and parked my car in a safe location.

I shall be forever grateful to them stopping to help me. The ambulance attendants were very prompt in taking care of me and getting me to Langley Memorial Hospital where the nurses and doctors were wonderful.

Thanks to all for your help.

of total health care dollars allocated to mental illness from seven to nine per cent over the next decade.

The price tag for that increase would be about $4 billion. But it’s argued that expenditure would actually save money, as it’s estimated mental health issues cost the Canadian economy about $50 billion annually.

Specifically, more housing, more addictions services, and more long-term psychiatric inpatient treatment are needed, experts say Without those things, many people are falling through the gaps.

Mayors: Critical of vote But some Metro Vancouver mayors are critical of the promised referendum, saying it threatens to dumb down the important debate over the future expansion of transit and put the long-term future of the region at risk.

Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts warned it could divide the region, with voters in cities that already have SkyTrain lines refusing to vote for the higher taxes needed to build new lines in the remaining underserved parts of the region.

“There are going to be people who don’t want to have any expansion in the region whatsoever and that leaves the communities that are growing that have had no investment in rapid transit at a disadvantage,” Watts said.

“Surrey has paid for significant amounts of infrastructure north of the Fraser,” she said.

“Now that we’re looking to expand south of the Fraser, where 70 per cent of the region’s growth is coming, we just really need to stop playing politics and get the job done.”

Watts said the debate over funding for TransLink has dragged on for years and waiting until November 2014 would keep the region at a standstill until then.

“Not to be able to do anything for another two years for us in Surrey is simply unacceptable,” said Watts, who questioned why there isn’t a referendum on Liberal plans for changes to income tax levels or the sale of Crown land.

Watts also said the Liberal platform wrongly calls rapid transit for Surrey a “new” proposal, noting it was promised in the Provincial Transit Plan more than five years ago by then-premier Gordon Campbell.

Mayors’ Council Chair Richard Walton doesn’t reject the idea of a referendum but said he’s concerned 2014 may be too soon to have an informed public debate on a complex issue like road pricing, which could see motorists charged to drive on major routes.

That public discussion would need to address not just what residents would pay in extra charges, but what they would get for the investment and the downside if it was rejected.

“Saying no is easy,”

Walton said. “But people bad idea,” he said, pointdon’t necessarily undering to transportation stand the repercussions funding referenda in of saying no.”

“Why is only one part of the transportation system up for a referendum?” Price asked. “I want to vote on the [replacement of the] Massey Tunnel.

And why didn’t they do that with the Port Mann Bridge?”

Price said he believes the referendum promise is designed so the Liberals can dodge responsibility for whatever deal may be struck with Metro mayors.

“Everything is framed so they have an out,” he said. “This just sounds like a way to avoid making the really tough decisions.”

Ridings in focus: SURREY-PANORAMA

by Rick Kupchuk Recent histoRy suggests incum-

bents aren’t likely to seek re-election in Surrey-Panorama.

Jagrup Brar was the riding’s MLA from 2003-09 when it was known as Surrey-Panorama Ridge, but when the boundaries were adjusted to include more of the South Surrey and Cloverdale areas, he moved to (and won) the new Surrey-Fleetwood riding.

Stephanie Cadieux pulled the riding back into the Liberal camp in 2009, defeating NDP candidate Debbie Lawrance with 54.3 per cent of the vote.

But Cadieux is now looking to accomplish a similar move as Brar, putting her name forward as the B.C. Liberal candidate in SurreyCloverdale (incumbent Liberal MLA Kevin Falcon is not running this time around), and leaving it up to Surrey Coun. Marvin Hunt to keep the Surrey-Panorama seat for the party.

Hunt will be up against B.C. NDP candidate Amrik Mahil, who is the president of Blacktop Cabs.

Sara Sharma, owner of her own business and a real estate agent, has

won the B.C. Green party nomination.

The B.C. Conservative candidate is Kevin Rakhra,. a 28 year-old Auxiliary RCMP member fluent in English, Punjabi and Hindi.

Surrey-Panorama is a familyoriented community. Only six other constituencies have fewer residents living alone, and only seven have more people living in owner-occupied dwellings.

A fast-growing area of Surrey, it is also the riding in which people are the least likely to walk or bike to work.

One-third of Surrey-Panorama residents are immigrants.

Most newcomers are from India and are living in a riding where 40 per cent of the population does not speak English as a first language.

Surrey-Panorama fast facts: • 2011 Population: 68,995 • 2006 population: 51,670 • Increase: 33.5 per cent • Median age: 37.9 • Non-English mother tongue: 40% • Average income: $67,675

if you live within these boundaries, this is your riding.

Surrey-Panorama: Candidates on the record The Leader asked local candidates to respond to the following questions:

I have had the awesome privilege of serving the citizens of Surrey as a city councillor

AMRiK MAhiL

Name, education, and residence: Amrik, Mahil, 55 years old. Education: civil engineering, Hatfield University and Cranfield Institute of Technology.

I currently reside in the Surrey-Panorama riding, in the Panorama neighbourhood. I have lived in Surrey for 28 years.

2. Why should people vote for you?

I understand small/ medium business needs

for 22 years. During those years, we have kept taxes low while attracting thousands of jobs to our city.

In fact, Surrey has the lowest residential taxes and the second lowest business taxes in Metro Vancouver.

During this global downturn, I want to use my experience in Surrey to help the province keep taxes low while attracting current and future jobs to this province. I want to take the spirit

of cooperation that we have on Surrey council to Victoria to find creative solutions for the challenges we face.

With experience being a spokesperson and chair of the Vancouver Taxi Association, I am able to communicate and find resolution to key issues on the behalf of others.

I believe in integrity, sincerity and honesty.

your riding and what would you do about them?

I am very concerned about the state of education in Surrey – primary, secondary and postsecondary. The lack of physical spaces for education to take place in and class size and availability of classes is far lower than the needs of this growing community. Almost every public school has mobile classrooms and teacher resources are spread too thin. Postsecondary space is also

3. What are the most significant issues facing your riding and what would you do about them?

The top three local issues are jobs, education and transportation. In partnership with Simon Fraser University, Kwantlen Polytechnic University, Fraser Health Author-

ity and others, we can build research and innovation centres to create the jobs of the future.

But students south of the Fraser must first have more school construction and greater access to our Universities.

TransLink must be restructured with directors who are elected and accountable and given the power to raise the necessary resources.

4. What are the most significant issues facing B.C. and what would you do about them?

Provincially, the economy is the top priority. We must work at attracting more jobs to this province while keeping the size of government in check. The new B.C. Liberals have a plan to build the economy.

Then we will have the needed resources to spend on health care and education.

lacking. Kwantlen and Surrey SFU have space to grow their programs, however no financial backing. Trades training opportunities are also scarce. I support Adrian Dix’s plan to create a $100-million grant program so students can have greater access to education and skills training.

young families is the issue that touches me the most. I know I was not able to find employment in my chosen area of study; however I was able to make a living and raise a family as a middle-class Canadian.

It is becoming harder for families now.

With fewer opportunities to earn solid income and the higher costs of housing, food, child and senior care are creating a greater inequality gap in all areas of B.C.

PREMIER CHRISTY

Clark formally began the B.C. election campaign Tuesday with a visit to Lt.-Gov. Judith Guichon to end the current government and begin a 28-day run to form a new one.

Clark began with the dramatic claim that the May 14 vote is “a choice that will do nothing less than define our province for another generation.”

B.C. Conservative leader John Cummins has emphasized that B.C.’s debt nearly doubled under the NDP government of the 1990s, and has almost doubled again in the 12 years of B.C. Liberal rule.

Dix boarded his campaign bus for a series of stops in Vancouver and Burnaby.

Cummins and B.C. Green party leader Jane Sterk are also travelling B.C. as they prepare for a leaders’ radio debate on April 26 and a TV debate April 29.

volunteer in my community for more than seven years, serving in law enforcement at a federal, provincial and municipal level to ensure public safety is maintained. I have been a volunteer auxiliary constable with the RCMP or seven years.

My commitment to serving others and ensuring we have a better future is why people should vote for me. I have accomplished a great deal at 28 years of age and I wish to do even more. If elected I vow to bring

transparency to the legislature. By electing me, we can take the first step to help grow our economy, address our social needs and bring positive growth to Surrey-Panorama.

I have volunteered at PAC and Minor Hockey League. I am a conservative Green and as your future MLA I would promote job creation, a tax shift to long-term needs and not just short term Band-aids, and improve transportation and education.

and more efficient government. Voters are frustrated with the government’s misuse of resources (ethnic vote scandal) and lack of coherent environmental policies. We have a great province, it is not just a province or corporation, it is a province of people, young, old, rich, and poor and we all deserve to have our voice heard.

The two primary areas of concern are the economy and public safety.

We must have a true free enterprise government to address our lack of

economic development.

By allowing expansion of our natural resources and opening up B.C. to other markets we can address our concerns.

Also we need to ensure budgets are transparent and by having an audit of expenditures we can see where finances of hard-working taxpayers are being misused.

Secondly, the four bodies found in SurreyPanorama on Colebrook Road is of great concern. There are clearly problems that must be

addressed before the situation grows even worse.

Today’s political climate is changing from local and national concerns to global ones.

This of course does not mean that we’re no longer interested in our neighbourhoods, but we are increasingly taking the larger picture into account. We want our children and grandchildren to live well and in a secure environment.

For this we need to think globally. The Green party is the only political organization that really addresses this. We need

to be aware of the impact we are having on the environment, but we also need to be cognizant of the affect the environment has on us. I do care about the future of my child, I care about the future of my community and I deeply care about the future of our species.

I pledge to educate myself about the issues, I pledge to educate you about the issues and I pledge to work to resolve the issues.

I am here to make the world better now and for generations to come.

4. What are the most significant issues facing B.C. and what would you do about them?

We must address our deficiencies in many sectors, from the stagnant economy, to accessibly heath care, to the revolving door of justice. But none of this can be done unless we have the fiscal capacity; that is why accountability and transparency are of the utmost importance.

B.C. Liberals vow income tax freeze

The B.C. LiBeraL party released its election platform Monday, promising to freeze personal income tax rates for five years and return to its plan to eliminate small business income tax.

Premier Christy Clark released the platform at a campaign event in Vancouver, challenging NDP leader Adrian Dix to do the same and to participate in a one-on-one debate on the different visions for the province.

The B.C. Liberals’ personal tax freeze does not extend to income above $150,000, which was subject to a 2.1-per-cent increase in the government’s February budget.

That increase was budgeted to last only two years before returning to the current 14.7-per-cent rate.

The NDP has proleans heavily on longposed to raise the rate on term debt repayment income above $150,000 for government, a year to 19 per cent, BC Ferries and BC permanently.

NDP vows reforestation spending Leader Adrian Dix pledge to double the number of trees planted on Crown land

by Tom Fletcher NDP leaDer Adrian

Dix released his party’s forestry platform in Prince George Monday, including a pledge to double the number of trees planted on Crown land.

Dix also promised to increase spending on forest inventory research and establish a “jobs protection commissioner” to manage the reduction in timber supply that is expected across Interior areas depleted by beetle infes-

tation.

The five-point plan promises action to reduce the export of logs from B.C., but as in the party’s 2009 election platform, the party offers no specifics. The NDP promises only to “work with stakeholders to reduce raw log exports and create more value-added forestry jobs.”

Dix said if the NDP forms a government after the May 14 election, forest spending

will increase by $30 Forests Minister million in the first year, Steve Thomson called with further the NDP increases up to announcement $100 million a “photo op” beyond current that provided spending over little new about five years. the NDP’s NDP critics plans. have focused In January, on B.C. Liberal Thomson budget cuts to announced forest manage- adrian Dix a 20 per cent ment, as the increase in the government merged export fee for logs from natural resource southern Vancouver operations into a single Island and the adjacent ministry. south coast.

NDP forest critic Norm Macdonald said at the time the increase was too small to make a difference as Asian buyers bid up the price of

B.C. logs, but he offered no alternative.

Dix said the federal and provincial governments have done a good job increasing lumber

exports to China, and as premier he would continue the trade missions and marketing efforts that have led to the growth.

“LNG revenue is an opportunity, but it’s not going to solve all of our challenges,” James said.

The NDP has decided on a staged release of policies, which started in Prince George Monday with promises for new investment in reforestation.

Other highlights of the B.C. Liberal platform include: • $3 million a year to upgrade rest stops and visitor centres around B.C.; • A B.C. film promotion office in Los Angeles; • Funds to develop an aerospace and defence contractor industry; • A five-year freeze of the carbon tax, previously announced.

Property sellers use loophole to dodge PTT Liberals, NDP have no plans to block evasion of Property Transfer Tax

by Jeff Nagel

CritiCs say a growing

number of businesses or

wealthy individuals are exploiting a loophole to avoid paying B.C.’s tax on property transac-

tions while average home buyers are stuck footing the bill.

The Property Transfer

Tax (PPT) consists of one per cent charged on the first $200,000 in property value and

two per cent after that – adding up to an extra $10,000 in tax when a $600,000 Metro Vancouver home changes hands.

But businesses in particular are making growing use of what’s th called a “bare trust” corporation to hold ownership of a property.

The trust can be transferred to a new buyer without any change in the land title owner and no PTT is triggered as a result.

“The loophole is big enough to drive trucks through,” Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) B.C. director Jordan Bateman said.

“Accountants are all over it, especially THE NOW - FULL PAGE (10.3611 x 14)corporate ones. It’s becoming standard tax practice and that tells you people are taking advantage of it.”

ICBC siphoning slammed

The provincial gov-

ernment is under fire for systematically using ICBC as a “cash cow” and causing motorists to be overcharged for auto insurance.

The Consumers’ Association of Canada noted the province has withdrawn $677 million in profits from ICBC since 2010 and will have siphoned away $1.2 billion by 2015.

“Higher vehicle insurance rates affect consumers and businesses alike as well as eliminate a key strategic provincial advantage that British Columbia has in its public automobile insurance system,” association president Bruce Cran said.

The group’s report on ICBC says the government required the public insurer to earn significant profits on optional coverage, easing the entry of private insurers while creating a pool of cash that could be transferred to general revenue.

It calls on Victoria to stop spurring ICBC to be more profitable and direct it to focus on serving customers.

New mobile air test truck

a new mobile air moni-

toring unit – dubbed MAMU – is expected to help Metro Vancouver test for air pollution anywhere a problem is suspected.

The new $282,000 vehicle is packed with sensitive instruments and replaces an old unit that

was 25 years old.

It can test for various air contaminants and air clarity, transmitting data instantly back to Metro’s headquarters.

The regional district has 26 fixed air quality monitoring sites from Horseshoe Bay to Hope, but the mobile unit helps fill in the coverage gaps.

The new model is expected to do a better job of homing in on smaller hot spots, like a smoky chimney or areas with high levels of diesel exhaust.

It will be used to ensure industries comply with their air emissions permits and it can also be deployed in emergencies, like a major industrial fire or wildfire.

Housing starts shift in region a drop in multi-family housing starts in Metro Vancouver is being partly offset by more construction of single detached houses so far this year.

Year-to-date housing starts for 2013 are down 20 per cent in Greater Vancouver to 3,137 from 3,931 in the same period a year ago.

But the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. also reported single detached starts are up from 700 to 843, a 20 per cent gain.

B.C.-wide, urban housing starts are down 13 per cent overall.

Board chair Nancy Olewiler said TransLink will save money on rent as a result of the move, which was made because the lease was up at its former

Metrotower II building.

“There are a lot of happy employees because it’s more geographically centred and there are some other ones not so happy who will have a longer commute,” Olewiler said.

The move of 900 TransLink staff is also creating a new anchor employer in that part of New Westminster, attracting more retail and development to Sapperton.

is a winner.

The city, alongside special event producer John Donnelly and Associates, has been awarded the 2013 National Star Award for Best Public Entertainment Event in Canada for the July 1 celebration last year.

The National Star Awards were announced at the Canadian Event Industry Awards gala held in Toronto on March 22, 2013.

The Canadian Event Industry Star Awards are the country’s most prominent national event industry awards.

“On behalf of city council, I’d like to congratulate and thank our many partners, sponsors and staff for staging the best Canada Day nationwide,” said City of Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts.

The event, held at the Millennium Amphitheatre in Cloverdale, included motocross

demos, Peak Performance Project double stage, amusement rides, soccer zone, and numerous family activations.

This year’s event takes place Monday, July 1.

Past National Star Award recognition for city events included the annual Surrey Fusion Festival, a two-day multicultural event showcasing over 30 different cultural pavilions, as well as BC Event awards for Party for the Planet, Surrey’s Earth Day celebration, and Surrey’s 2010 Olympic Celebration Site.

A gleaning of dresses North Vancouver’s Tracy Chow, with several selections already in hand, searches for more at the Princess Project Society’s annual dress sale at the Kennedy Seniors Recreation Centre in North Delta on April 6. About half of the hundreds of donated (and discounted) dresses and shoes for sale were gone within the first 15 minutes of the sale. The Surrey-based non-profit society provides high school prom dresses, shoes, accessories, makeup and hair styling for low-income teens.

Surrey’S firSt Community Summit was a huge success, according to organizers.

Surrey Coun. Barinder Rasode said the summit was important in gathering feedback from city residents about a number of issues.

The sold-out event was held at SFU Surrey on Saturday (April 6), with the city hosting 12 panels addressing various topics, including connecting with youth, sustainability,

Surrey in 2050, and getting to know city hall.

“It was really refreshing not only to see people who have been active in the community for a long time, but people who had never participated in any city or community event,” Rasode said.

“It was really about making connections.”

Staff will be collating responses and posting them to the city’s website (surrey.ca).

“This is the first of many,” Rasode said.

“We will be hosting dialogues on a number of other issues.”

Langley’s Waterstone to release next phase

Appealing to the downsizing market As the baby boomers get older, many of them are looking to find a singlestorey home that they can lock up and leave when they decide to go away for awhile. The newest phase at Langley’s Waterstone, called Esplanade, has been catering to downsizers with spacious floorplans and a vibrant community feel.

“These are the largest ever floorplans offered at Waterstone,” says Scott Brown of Colliers International. “It’s also the first lofted product in the area. That loft gives you 100 square feet of extra living space.”

Along with that extra space, the homes with lofts will have 14-foot

ceilings.

Brown notes that it can be hard for downsizers to move from a larger single-family home to a small condominium, especially when they’ve been there for many years and possibly raised a family.

“There’s an emotional connection to your home,” he says.

One of the things that he has found downsizing buyers asking for is storage.

People accumulate plenty of possessions over the years, and sometimes aren’t ready to part with all of it quite yet.

For more information about Esplanade, visit waterstoneliving.ca or call 604-530-5399.

matching backsplash. Most include a his-and-hers vanity, which is another one of those convenient details.

Located in the charming Semiahmoo neighbourhood, residents will find everything they can possibly imagine on their doorstep. From dining at one of the delicious local restaurants to shopping at nearby Semiahmoo Shopping Centre, Morgan Crossing or Grandview Corners, nothing is out of reach. Leisure and recreation is also close by, with parks, pools, arenas and clubs in the neighbourhood, as well as White Rock beach. If it’s a bit of

culture you’re looking for, you’ll find an art gallery, theatre and museum just minutes away.

On-site, homeowners at Adagio will find a residents lounge with chef ’s demonstration kitchen, double-sided fireplace, televisions, pool table and a large garden and patio area. There is also a fitness centre with a steam room.

“The response so far has been extremely overwhelming,” West says.

“There’s nothing like this in the area.”

Homes at Adagio start at $288,800.

Attention to detail

Boffo brings unique condo project to South Surrey

By Kerry Vital

Boffo Developments Ltd. is bringing hotel-style sophistication to South Surrey with its newest development, Adagio. With a variety of floorplans and amazing features, there are plenty of things that set the project apart.

“The smallest details can make a difference,” says Boffo Marketing and Sales Director Karen West. “Boffo is known for its obsession with the details.”

Among those details include an amazing community courtyard with trees, paths and seating areas.

“That courtyard will be sensational,” West says. “It’s a great communal living space.”

The first phase of 50 condominum homes is currently selling, with buyers able to take possession before Christmas.

The one-bedroom and den, twobedroom and den and three-bedroom homes are spacious and inviting, with nine-foot ceilings (up to 15 feet on the top floor), expansive windows, and large terraces and patios that are perfect for entertaining.

Boffo is known for high-quality design, but one room in the home really draws people in.

“Our kitchens are really outstanding,” West says, adding “They are built for the serious chef.”

That’s not an exaggeration. The natural granite or quartz slab countertops are matched with a complementary backsplash. The under-cabinet and recessed lighting

There’s nothing like this in the area,” says Boffo Sales and Marketing Director Karen West. easily illuminates your tasks, and the premium stainless-steel appliances and 40-inch upper cabinets are perfectly situated. Large kitchen islands feature a wine chiller and tons of space for food preparation or casual dining, while the large-format porcelain tile flooring is modern and elegant.

Premium laminate flooring is featured throughout the main living areas, while the bedrooms include carpet made for sinking your toes into.

The bathrooms are luxurious and soothing, with either an oversize shower with frameless glass enclosure or an oversize soaker tub/shower combination. The ensuite includes built-in shower niches and a radiant heated floor to make you feel like you’re entering an exclusive spa, a feeling only magnified by the custom suspended vanity and natural granite or quartz countertops, complemented by a

The courtyard at Adagio, above, will be spectacular, with seating areas, walking paths and plenty of natural greenery. Buyers will love the signature Boffo kitchens, top, with their stainless-steel appliances and kitchen islands, while the bathrooms, left, are luxurious and relaxing.

Penticton Vees win twice in Okanagan, Eagles host Game 5 tonight

Series shifts to Surrey tied 2-2

by Nick Greenizan What a difference a few days

make.

After winning the first two games of the BC Hockey League’s Fred Page Cup finals on home ice, the Surrey Eagles headed to Penticton in the driver’s seat in their best-of-seven series against the defending champion Vees.

But now? Now it’s back to Square 1 for the local squad after the Vees evened the series earlier this week with home-ice wins in Games 3 and 4, both by identical 3-2 scores.

In both games, held Monday and Tuesday at the South Okanagan Events Centre, the two teams were tied after 40 minutes, but the Vees outscored the Eagles 4-1 in the two third periods combined, including a three-goal outburst in Game 4 Tuesday that quickly erased Surrey’s 1-0 lead.

In that instance, Penticton’s Wade Murphy scored a powerplay goal 58 seconds into the third period when his wrist shot from the left circle beat Eagles’ goalie Michael Santaguida, and Ryan Gropp and Jedd Soleway also scored to boost the Vees to victory, with both goals coming as a result of less-than-stellar defensive play on the part of the Eagles, whose lone goal of the final frame came from Nic Pierog.

Surrey forward Anthony Brito – a 20-year-old affiliate player – scored the first goal of Game 4.

“We shot ourselves in the foot. We got a questionable penalty call (against us) at the end of the second, and they got a power-play goal to start the third,” Eagles coach Matt Erhart explained after the game.

“Then we turned the puck over twice and they score (on both).

“Penticton is a great team and I thought our group battled hard

Jedd Soleway of the Penticton Vees runs over Surrey Eagles netminder Michael Santaguida while defenceman Devon toews looks on during a game in Penticton tuesday. the Eagles lost twice at the South Okanagan Events Centre earlier this week, and the best-of-seven BChL championship series is tied 2-2.

– that’s the reason it was tied in the third period both nights, but they found a way to win, and we found a way to lose. We didn’t get it done, and we need to be better for Game 5.”

In Game 4 Monday, the Vees

notched their first win of the best-of-seven series in part because of their ability to finally solve Santaguida, who was coming off a 50-save shutout at home in Game 2.

On Monday, Penticton’s Brad

McClure scored twice in the first 40 minutes, and Cody DePourcq – one of the few holdovers from last year’s championship team – scored the winner 10:53 into the third period, when he converted a pass from Travis Blanleil on a

two-on-one.

“I didn’t get on top of the puck well enough,” Santaquida said after the game. “He made a good shot over top of my pad. Right in the little corner. I thought I had it, to be

Chiefs drop two of three in Victoria B.C. Premier Baseball League team wins once on road trip to Vancouver Island

by Rick Kupchuk Rain and the Victoria

Mariners got in the way of the Whalley Chiefs last weekend in the provincial capital.

The B.C. Premier Baseball League team was to play a pair of doubleheaders, but after a win Saturday over the Victoria Eagles, the second game of the day was rained out.

The Chiefs then lost

twice to the Victoria Mariners on Sunday.

The Chiefs got a complete-game shutout from Yuta Kikuzaki in a 2-0 victory Saturday over the Eagles.

Kikuzaka scattered five hits, and didn’t walk a batter.

Garrett Hasner singled home Matthew Yee in the third inning, then scored himself on Commer Chorpita’s base-hit two innings later.

The wet weather was gone by Sunday, but the Chiefs dropped both ends of a doubleheader against the Victoria Mariners. The Chiefs fell behind early in the first game, then chipped away at the Victoria lead before falling short in a 6-4 loss.

Down 4-0 after three innings, Whalley got on the board when Colton Wright smacked a single to drive in Braeden Alleman and Kyle McComb. On

the next at-bat, Daniel Singer singled to send home Chorpita to cut the difference to one.

The Mariners answered with two runs of their own in the bottom half of the fourth inning for a 6-3 lead.

The Chiefs final run came when an error allowed Yee to score in the fifth inning.

Pitcher Brandon Bohn took the loss for Whalley, giving up six earned runs on 10 hits.

A come-from-behind

victory in the second game left the Mariners with a sweep. Malcolm Upton singled to score Cole Hunt from third base in the fourth inning, then a base-hit from Chorpita scored McComb to make it 2-0 for Whalley.

Victoria scored three times on two hits and a Chiefs error in the bottom half of the fifth inning to take the lead, then added two more runs in the sixth frame.

Roberto Bevacqua

took the loss for the Chiefs, allowing the five runs on six hits and four walks while striking out out four Mariners batters.

The Chiefs also played on the road Tuesday night, falling 2-1 to the Abbotsford Cardinals.

A single from Ryan Pouowells in the fifth inning scored Tim Bunnett to lift the Chiefs into a 1-1 tie. The Cardinals got the winning run with two out in the

bottom of the seventh inning when a batter was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded.

Jacob Robazza of the Chiefs took the loss in relief, throwing four and two-thirds innings, allowing two runs on five hits and three walks. He and starting pitcher Cole hunt combined for seven strikeouts.

The Chiefs will host the Vancouver Cannons tonight at 7 p.m. at Whalley Stadium.

honest. Kind of kicking myself for that.”

For DePourcq, the goal was just his second in 13 playoff games.

“I have been getting a lot of chances lately, (but) they just haven’t gone in for me,” he said. “It’s nice to get that goal, but it’s even better to get the win.”

Pierog – with his ninth goal of the playoffs – and Brady Shaw, on the power play, scored for the Eagles, who managed 28 shots on Vees’ netmidner Chad Katunar.

Game 5 is scheduled for tonight (Thursday), 7 p.m. at South Surrey Arena. The series will return to Penticton for Game 6 Sunday and, if necessary, Game 7 will be played in South Surrey Monday.

And if the old hockey axiom – that a team is never out of a series until they lose at home – is indeed true, the Game 5 looms awfully large for the Birds, who’ve cruised through the playoffs up until this point, compiling a 10-1 record en route to the finals.

“Both teams have won their homes games, and that’s kind of what you’re supposed to do, and now it’s a best-of-three,” said Erhart.

Despite the backto-back losses, Erhart insisted after Game 4 that his team didn’t have to change much about its game, save for a limiting the turnovers and tightening up defensively as a whole.

“Our group doesn’t have to change much, we’re in the finals for a reason, we just need to tidy up a few little areas and we’ll be ready to go.”

Qualifying time for Kisser Delta swimmer to compete at Para-World meet

by Rick Kupchuk Winning gold

medals and setting national records along the way, Danielle Kisser of the Delta Sungod Swim Club has qualified for the Para-World Championships.

Kisser, 16, just missed qualifying for last summer’s Paralympic Games in London, England, but lowered her personal best time by eight seconds in the 100m breast stroke race.

Her swim at the Can-Am Championships earlier this month in Minneapolis, Minnesota established a new Canadian record for SB6 athletes and qualified her for the ParaWorld competition in August in Montreal.

Kisser won gold in the 100m breast stroke event, and added a second gold medal in the 200m breast stroke. She won silver medals in the 200m individual medley and 100m back stroke events, as well as a bronze in the 50m freestyle. All medal swims were new Canadian-record times.

Kisser also broke the national record in the 50m butterfly, a race

in which she placed fourth. n Sungod swimmer Reece Landry, 10, set seven new Swungod club records at the Langley Long Course Invitational.

Competing in the boys 10-and-under group, Landry set new marks in the 400m and 1,500m freestyle, 100m and 200m breast stroke, the 200m butterfly, and the 200m and 400m individual medley events.

He won six gold medals, taking the silver medal in the 200m individual race. He also qualified for the BC Provincial AAA championships in the 200m breast stroke.

Michael Milic, 14, and Elena Penner, 12, combined for five gold medals. Milic won his 100m breast stroke, 100m back stroke and 800m freestyle races, adding a silver medal in the 200m back stroke and a fourth place finish in the 400m individual medley and 200m breast stroke.

Penner won gold in the 200m individual medley and 100m back stroke, and took the bronze medal in the 200m back stroke and 200m butterfly events.

Tritons top Blue Jays

Season opener in South Surrey

by Rick Kupchuk The norTh Delta Blue Jays carried a two-run

lead into the last two innings of the game, only to drop a 3-2 decision to the White Rock Tritons in their first game of the BC Premier Baseball League season Tuesday night at South Surrey Athletic Park.

The Jays broke a scoreless tie in the fourth inning, with a two-out single from Mitch Boycuk scoring Riley Grewal and Brock Morgan.

North Delta pitcher Luke Manuel kept the Tritons off the scoreboard until the sixth inning, when White Rock knotted the score at 2-2 with a two-out double from Matt Stephens which scored Joey Gladman and Daniel Cassino.

Cassino hit a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the seventh inning, allowing Kieren O’Connor to cross the plate for the game-winning run.

Cloverdale resident Ryan Braun took the loss for the Blue Jays, despite pitching to just four batters in the final frame, allowing two hits and an earned run.

Manuel gave up two earned runs on six hits and a pair of walks, recording nine strikeouts.

The Blue Jays are scheduled to play their first two home games of the season Saturday at Mackie Park in North Delta. The Coquitlam Reds, owners of a 2-2 (won-lost) record are the visitors for games at 11 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.

From Sin City to paradise

by Brenda Anderson

H

e’s paid his dues in blue suede shoes.

The title of Darren Lee’s autobiography has practically written itself. But the Edmonton-born Elvis tribute artist who now calls Langley home, has a few more chapters to live, before he finally sits down to pen the story of his life.

So far, it is one that’s taken him from chilly northern Alberta to the scorching Nevada desert. And, if all goes as planned, it will carry him to the end of his days in a tropical island paradise.

Before coming to Langley two years ago, Lee spent 11 exhausting years appearing on stage as Elvis in a Las Vegas showroom and performing 50 weddings a month in one of the City’s famous little wedding chapels.

And prior to that (in 1997 — on the 20th anniversary of Elvis’ death, in fact) he earned the title of world’s best Elvis tribute artist from among 397 competitors at Images of Elvis contest in Memphis, Tenn.

“It’s now called Ultimate Elvis and it’s a bigger thing. It was cool to win it,” said Lee, sitting down to chat about his plans for a unique new stage show and an upcoming performance at Surrey’s Bell Centre.

“I was lucky,” said Lee. “I had a certain body type.”

While it’s great to have a convincing look, to Lee a good Elvis impression is, first and foremost, about the sound. But before he’d even fully developed his voice, he was already working on the signature hip swivel.

“Thankfully, I had a good looking dad. I concentrated on making the moves — I wanted to make them the best you’ve ever seen,” said Lee. “For me, everything was a step.

“In my 30s, my voice came in. It kept me in Vegas all those years.”

From 2000 to 2011 Lee performed as part of the American Superstars show at the Stratosphere on the Vegas strip.

In fact, his was the longest continuously running Elvis act in Sin City until his record was recently surpassed.

Running from lounge show to wedding ceremony and back again, Lee’s wallet was thick with cash and he was spending it as fast as he earned it.

A Vegas wedding, said Lee, is “the best, most fun you’ll ever have.” He actually preferred doing the vow renewals to the actual marriages because he didn’t have to follow a script.

“I’d ask ‘Do you take (this person) to be your hunka hunka burnin’ love, to love her tender? Say uh huh.’

“I’d be singing A Little Less Conversation and the whole chapel would be shaking,” he recalled with a smile.

Then the economy collapsed.

The wedding business dried up, salaries were slashed as the lounge act began to struggle and Lee lost his house. He stuck it out for a few more years before moving home to Canada in 2011.

It was Lee’s wife who suggested they come to Langley.

Here, the couple has been raising their twin daughters, who are nearly two years old, while Lee has performed in Lower Mainland casinos.

“Langley has been great — I’ve played the Cascades. I would love to do the car show (Langley Good Times Cruise In) but they have their Elvis,” he said.

Now, Lee is ready to give the U.S. another shot. This time, he’s headed back to Memphis to open an Elvis tribute show on the famed Beale Street. The idea is to run it for a few months and then pass it off to his brother, who also just happens to be an Elvis impersonator.

After that, Lee will move to Maui to open his own Elvis-themed luau. The Rockin’ Hawaiian Luau will forgo the traditional roast pig in favour of a few of the King’s favourites – barbecued Memphis ribs and peanut butter and banana sandwich appetizers.

On any given night, the stage show will feature selections from

Surrey/North Delta Leader

Tribute artist Darren Lee, who spent years performing in Vegas, is burning up the Surrey stage next week before heading to Hawaii

the three movies Elvis shot in Hawaii and from his Aloha from Hawaii performance. For his grand finale, Lee plans to sing Burnin’ Love while fire dancers spin flames behind him.

The best part for Lee, though, is that this show will belong to him.

“In Vegas, I was the typical Canadian – eager to please, no sick days in 11 years,” he said. “Pink eye? Get on stage. Broken tooth? Get on stage. In Hawaii, it will be our show.”

In what will likely be his last show in Canada for the foreseeable future, Lee and his band, The Memphis Flash, will hit the Bell Centre stage in Surrey on Friday, April 26.

The first part of the show will feature Lee performing songs from Elvis’ early years – Heartbreak Hotel, Love Me Tender and Don’t Be Cruel. The second act will recreate the King’s ’68 comeback tour. Dressed head to toe in black leather, Lee will sing (among others) One Night With You and take a few requests before getting into the jumpsuit – something he once swore he’d never do – and performing hits from the 1970s, Elvis’ Vegas years.

“In 2009 I gave in,” Lee said of his decision to don the white satin suit, adding he has no regrets. “I put it on and it looked damn good,” he laughed. “Whoever’s in the suit, it’s how he acts. A guy who’s not a joke can pull it off.”

Darren Lee and the Memphis Flash will perform at the Bell Performing Arts Centre on April 26 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $39, available from the box office at 6250 144 St., by phone at 604-507-6355 or info@bellperformingartscentre.ca.

Surrey Little Theatre presents Home Fires

by Jennifer Lang The sacrifices of the home front during the

Second World War are the focus of the Surrey Little Theatre’s final production of the season.

Home Fires follows Nettie, a woman raising three teenagers – on her own – and four young women boarders who are struggling to make their way in small town Texas during, and after, the war.

“Life makes some people bitter and some people better,” says Paul Cowhig, who’s co-directing the play with Brigitte Seib. “Not all the victories or all the casualties were on the battlefields.”

Despite the serious subject matter, the play, writ-

ten by Jack Heifner, is also poignant, funny, and full of hope.

Home Fires opens tonight (April 18) and runs Thursdays to Saturdays to May 18. Show times are 8 p.m. There are also 2 p.m. Sunday matinees April 28, May 5 and May 12.

The production stars a cast of actors from across the Fraser Valley.

Tickets are $15. Preview night (April 18) is half price. There’s also a two-for-one night April 19, and a Gala night April 20.

Reserve by calling 604-576-8451 or by emailing reservations@surreylittletheatre.com. For more information, visit www.surreylittletheatre.com.
