$4 million for three civic projects alone

Dropping HST to cost Surrey Kevin Diakiw Black Press

Surrey taxpayers are taking an unexpected hit with the switch back to the provincial sales tax.

In three civic projects alone, Surrey will shell out $4 million more with the dissolution of the harmonized sales tax, which combined the PST (seven per cent) and goods and services tax (five per cent).

Under the HST, Surrey would have received a 10.25-per-cent refund for building materials.

Extra costs for the new city hall in Whalley will be another $1.5 million, while the tab for two recreation centres are jumping $2.5 million.

Those extra costs were not factored into the current budget, so when Surrey sits down to figure out next year’s budget, savings will have to be found.

“I think we have some significant challenges in our finances, there’s no question,” said Coun. Tom Gill, chair of the city finance committee.

“Yes, we need to find some of the dollars.”

Surrey is writing the provincial minister of finance asking that the PST on supplies be reimbursed,

but even the most hopeful don’t believe that’s going to happen.

Gill believes the city can stick to its plan of property-tax increases of 2.9 per cent annually with a one per cent road levy.

He thinks the savings can be found internally at city hall. But that may pose a significant challenge to staff, which is already operating well under budget – partly due to vacancies, particularly in fire services, engineering, planning and development and the city manager’s office.

Gill said it’s far too early to say where the savings will be found.

“I think it’s going to be a combination of finding the money internally through the existing budgets or looking at some revenue-generation opportunities we may not have looked at in the past,” Gill said.

Surrey council won’t be considering the 2014 budget until fall, but Gill said the anticipated impacts are already in his mind.

“What worries me still is the (funding for) roads,” Gill said.

“That would probably be the one priority for me just from the engineering side.”

A Special Supplement In Today’s Issue

Stung by public opposition to coal exports, Port Metro Vancouver officials are pledging more consultation and open houses next month over a contentious plan to build a new coal terminal at Fraser Surrey Docks.

But a decision could then be made swiftly, according to Duncan Wilson, the port’s vice-president of corporate social responsibility.

“If things go relatively well and we’re confident issues within our purview are adequately addressed,

then I think we could probably see a decision before the end of June,” he said.

Open houses on May 23 and 25 are expected to respond to public concerns raised to date, present measures to address impacts and gather more feedback.

“There is a lot of coal that is already handled in this port and it’s handled in an environmentally sustainable way,” port planning director Jim Crandles said.

“There is no doubt that you can do it.” › see page A4

Safe-celebration receipts not accepted by Canada Revenue Agency

‘Nightmare’ tax rule could tank dry grads Sheila Reynolds Black Press

Surrey School District officials are asking for a review of rules that deem dry-grad donation receipts unacceptable in the eyes of Canada Revenue Agency.

Board of education trustees worry that without a change, the rule puts the alcohol- and drug-free festivities in danger of drying up.

The issue was discussed last week, with trustee Terry Allen saying it will be “a nightmare” trying to get charitable donations for such events if receipts can’t be offered.

“It should be a concern… we’re trying to provide a safe environment for kids,” he said.

Each year, many high school parent groups organize dry-grad celebrations, providing a

place the teens can gather in a drug- and alcohol-free environment.

Often there is music, a variety of entertainment, food and prizes – all aimed at giving those graduating a safe night to remember.

With such celebrations costing at least $20,000, the fundraising involved is extensive. Schools hold sales of a variety of goods from baked items to plants, as well as raffles and parent pub nights. But it’s the donations of money and goods from local businesses and individuals that bolster the bottom line.

Allen says that while the provincial government supports dry-grad initiatives and encourages issuing charitable tax receipts for such events, the Canadian Revenue Agency currently doesn’t accept such receipts.

Bob Holmes, president of the Surrey District Parent Advisory Council (DPAC), said the rule isn’t new, but has become an issue at some schools. He said the tax matter comes down to whether the donations are considered education or curriculum-related.

“Though it’s not directly curricular,” said Holmes, “there’s still a lesson for students to not drink and drive. More and more now, part of education is about social issues.”

Cindy Dodson, a parent and the Dry Grad Committee chair at North Surrey Secondary, has been working for a year on the school’s 2013 event. She said that while some companies and individuals have made donations without asking for a receipt, other companies have guidelines for charitable donations

Cancer boxes stolen

Court rules questioned

Kirpan policy ‘crosses line’

Charity robbed

Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Sarah Massah Staff Reporter

A rash of thefts has cost the Canadian Cancer Society between $5,000 and $10,000.

Twenty-seven daffodil-pin fundraising boxes have been stolen from businesses in White Rock, Surrey, Delta, Maple Ridge and Chilliwack.

Up to 10 boxes have been stolen from locations throughout the Semiahmoo Peninsula, confirmed Carissa Halley, who leads the Fraser Valley region’s annual-giving team. Each box brings in $200 to $400 annually, she said.

“We have never had this issue before, to the best of my knowledge,” she told Peace Arch News Wednesday. “We’ve never, ever had a box stolen.”

Sixteen were taken in Chilliwack, and RCMP there are investigating.

“We do have a suspect for at least one of the thefts,” Const. Tracy Wolbeck said. “It is too early to indicate if there is a connection between the thefts, but it’s not likely that one person is responsible for all 27.”

That the thefts occurred over a period of weeks makes it difficult to determine an exact timeline, Halley said.

“A few went missing the first week into the campaign, then the second week there were a few more,” she said.

Ron Kuehl, vice-president of revenue development with the B.C. and Yukon CCS, described the thefts as “highly unusual and… absolutely shameful.”

“These funds are intended to support those on a cancer journey and, more than ever before, we need the Fraser Valley’s help to fight back and help us rebuild what we have lost,” he said.

The CCS and RCMP are putting additional protection measures in place for the boxes.

“We’re asking the public and retailers to keep an eye out,” Halley said. “We need to make that revenue. Without it, we can’t do everything we need to do to fight cancer.”

that include the requirement of a tax receipt.

Still others, she said, send a request for a tax receipt along with their donation, which leads to an “awkward situation.”

So far, said Dodson, no one has rescinded a donation from her high school.

“One of the direct consequences of not being able to issue tax receipts is losing those cash donations that parents as well as companies might make to dry grad if they could receive a receipt in return,” Dodson said.

There are 19 high schools in Surrey, each of which fundraises annually to provide a safe, alcohol and drug-free grad party for teens.

School district staff have been asked to contact the CRA to review the policy.

A report is due back by December.

Dean Berkeley shows his sgian dubh, which he was prevented from bringing into Surrey court.

A White Rock man is speaking out about a recent policy change that allows initiated Sikhs to wear their ceremonial daggers into B.C. courthouses.

Regardless of the logic for the change, it “crosses a line,” Dean Berkeley said, referring to the move that permits kirpans into public areas of court buildings.

“It’s not a religion thing, it’s not a racist thing. You do not go into a public law building packing a knife.”

The B.C. Ministry of Justice changed policy early this month to accommodate kirpans, after working with the World Sikh Organization of Canada to develop guidelines.

Up until then, anyone with a kirpan was asked by sheriffs to put their daggers or swords in their vehicles or stay outside.

The new guidelines bring B.C. in line with Alberta and Toronto courts, as well as all Parliament of Canada buildings.

The kirpan symbolizes spiritual wisdom and the duty to stand against injustice. The Sikh code of conduct requires it be worn at all times, along with four other articles of faith.

Surrey sheriff services’ Insp. Brad Messenger said ensuring all of those five tenets of Sikhism are being followed is key to allowing someone to bring their kirpan in.

“If you don’t have all five of those… you can’t come in here with a kirpan,” he said.

The policy does not apply to anyone in custody, he added, nor does it change the fact that everyone who enters the courthouse is risk-assessed. He assured that Sikhs who display all five tenets but are deemed a risk will be dealt with just like any other member of the public who is deemed a risk.

Berkeley said his own heritage includes the wearing of a sgian dubh – a small, singleedged knife – as part of Scottish Highland traditional dress. He typically only wears his for special occasions such as weddings, but, after learning of the kirpan policy, decided to test its reception at the Surrey courthouse.

He was told he couldn’t have the knife on him in the courthouse, and promptly left the building. And that is how it should be for everyone, regardless of religion, he said.

Messenger said he expected the new policy would be tested. He could not predict if its enactment would open the door to allow other ceremonial or traditional weapons.

WSO general legal counsel Palbinder Kaur Shergil told Black Press the guidelines “balance both security and the freedom-of-religion rights of the Sikh community.”

Coal response not known The port is awaiting BNSF railway’s plan for how it would handle coal bound for the Fraser Surrey Docks terminal.

Coal cars going through White Rock, South Surrey and Delta to Deltaport now move uncovered, with a topping agent applied to suppress dust.

It’s not yet clear whether a different system will be proposed for the additional coal trains.

Port officials say they don’t have direct jurisdic-

tion over how rail companies move their product on rail lines.

Any specific regulation to address dust from coal trains would have to come from Transport Canada.

An industry group is supporting the proposed terminal.

City eyes possible addition to waterfront

White Rock seeks caboose Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

It sounds ominous, but efforts underway to bring a historic end to White Rock are anything but.

The end is, in fact, a caboose – the former end of virtually every freight train that ran along the Great Northern Railway.

Eyed as a possible addition to White Rock’s waterfront, the caboose was noted in a report outlining proposed amendments to White Rock’s 2013-2017 Financial Plan. Financial services director Sandra Kurylo suggests a $150,000-increase to the city’s contingency budget for new initiatives that may require funding, including “possible site preparation and display costs of a historic caboose that might be donated to the city.”

Coun. Grant Meyer said he was thrilled to see it in writing. While exact plans for the caboose – should it come to fruition – aren’t determined, Meyer said it could be a unique home for the city’s tourist information centre.

BNSF Railway spokesman Gus Melonas confirmed Friday there have been discussions regarding finding a caboose for White Rock.

However, donating one to the city would need to go through BNSF’s approval process, he said.

“There is a list and White Rock is on the list,” Melonas said.

Melonas could not predict how

The City of White Rock is looking for a caboose for their waterfront. long it might take to find one of the long-obsolete cars. They are popular and finding one in decent condition is rare, he said.

“They’re so few and far between,” he said.

In addition, White Rock is not the only community with a caboose on its wish-list, he said.

“There are several communities that are interested across our system… that regularly express interest,” he said.

“The demand far exceeds the supply.”

When a caboose is donated, the recipient is responsible for any restoration required, Melonas said, noting he has seen them converted into such things as gift shops and restaurants. Great Northern’s goat logo “attracts a lot of attention,” he added.

The idea of a caboose for White Rock was first raised about five years ago by a local resident, but didn’t go any farther than that, Melonas said.

The latest discussion began “in the last month.”

The world is on watch

M

any around the world breathed a sigh of relief last Friday when a second Boston Marathon bombing suspect was arrested, following the death of the first in a firefight with police hours before.

“The terror is over,” Boston police tweeted following the arrest, yet another sign of the times in a case in which speed of reporting by mainstream media and the spread of information through social media reached a dizzying velocity.

Sober reflection may finally result in a recognition of the risks of media letting speed trump accuracy – particularly among some mainstream news-gathering organizations that should have known better.

But as media began to paint the picture of two alienated emigre brothers from Chechnya, harbouring unspecified grudges against the U.S., the case immediately began to assume more manageable dimensions. As deadly as it had been – the final tally including three initial bombing victims and a police officer killed, not to mention scores of marathon spectators injured April 15, a robbery and hostage taking, and the death of one of the alleged perpetrators – it was still somehow easier to get one’s head around than if it had all remained a mysterious terrorist plot.

The terror isn’t over, of course – evidenced by the announced arrests in Canada this week of two men accused of plotting to derail a TorontoNew York passenger train – just one particular terror. And as the world comes to grips with the realization that the bombers’ motives may never fully be known, what is evident from the Boston case is that we already live in a very different world from the one temporarily paralyzed by the events of 9-11.

The startling tempo of today’s media, whether mainstream or amateur, is in direct proportion with people’s hunger for the truth. Today’s audience, the marathon bombing shows, is far more wary and skeptical – and less likely to passively accept officially sanctioned reports and platitudes.

There are many, Boston has also shown, who want to help in times of emergency, whether it’s pitching in to care for casualties, or volunteering digital images to help identify possible perpetrators.

And is it just optimism, or could it be that there has been a slight increase in transparency, as authorities and the media have come to realize, that the people themselves – many of them armed as never before with picture-taking capability, can be an important part of the information and evidence-gathering chain?

Political price for ignorance Editor: Re: New regs approved, but still in flux, April 18.

It is probably a good thing that a decision on West Beach building heights has been postponed.

This will give the neighbourhood a chance to organize as a group to provide encouragement for those councillors who consistently vote with the wishes of their constituents.

Those councillors who consistently support developers and ignore their electors should understand that the next White Rock municipal election will probably be their last.

Brian Tuomi, White Rock

like free parking spots that are commonly found at big shopping centres like Semiahmoo Mall.

That is a mistake newcomers to the area are going to make, and the bylaw officers are quick to pounce on unsuspecting victims like myself.

It’s a cash cow for White Rock but a serious deterrent to attracting people to the facilities there.

I was delivering a huge painting to Semiahmoo Arts building for the Figuratively Speaking art show that is on until April 30. I needed to get as close as possible in order to carry my painting no further than necessary.

I parked in an unmarked parking spot, left the painting inside my old station wagon and went to the gallery to ask where I should take the painting. The curator advised me to get back to my car quickly or I would get a parking ticket.

I went back to the car and a $60 parking ticket was already tucked under my windshield wiper.

A girl at a car next to mine advised me to go to White Rock City Hall and contest the ticket.

I spent the next hour looking for a parking space near the city hall, looking for the right department and filling out a form, to which I also stapled an invitation to the art exhibit. I then headed back to Centennial Park with the painting, but this time I parked elsewhere and had to carry that canvas a few blocks. I am only 75 years old.

Those central parking spots need to be marked as “paid parking,” and there should be a place where people can stop to make deliveries or at least pay a meter for 15 minutes parking.

An open letter to Canada Post.

So many times we hear complaints about Canada Post and/or their letter carriers, we thought it fitting that we pass along a good story too.

Rob has been exemplary in providing courteous and accurate customer service. He makes an effort to be thoughtful, such as ringing the doorbell to alert us, when he has a package to deliver.

We are grateful for Rob’s service and are sorry to see him leave the route. We are hoping that the next letter carrier will provide the same kind of caring customer service.

Deserving of city’s thanks Editor: Re: ‘Mr. Surrey’ thanked for community work, April 23.

Congratulations to Bill Reid and his family on his being named Surrey Good Citizen of the Year!

Bill has been a valuable and welcome friend and a considered influence in my life in Surrey, and I am so happy to see Bill, once again, recognized for his contributions to our city. I wish Bill and his family nothing but the best at this time.

Bill has always been a great adviser, and I have always appreciated his willingness to support what is good for Surrey.

Thanks Bill. You have given me some great political advice over the years. I may not have always taken it, but I appreciate it. As you once said to me, “there are no sides, just differences of opinion on how to do the best for our city and our province, as well as our community.”

Job well done!

Alarmists ignore essential truths Editor: Re: Being led down path to global warming, April 18.

Chris Bryan made several misstatements in his column.

First, Mark Jaccard is not a “climate scientist” – but is certainly a climate alarmist and a bit of a self-promoter.

He is professor of environmental economics at SFU. Climate researchers derive from the many earth sciences, other disciplines such as physics, chemistry, biology, botany, archeology, mathematics and others.

Jaccard has none of these credentials. Economists may contribute to climate discussions by way of economic analysis of a spectrum future climate scenarios but do not generate those scenarios through their own research.

Second, Jaccard was not awarded a Nobel laureate.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has stated publicly that participants in IPCC periodic assessment reports may not claim to be Nobel laureates.

Third, carbon, meaning carbon dioxide, is not a “pollutant,” as Bryan – and non-scientists like Jaccard – claims. CO2 is a trace gas but is a plant food and fertilizer, essential for all life on earth, flora and fauna alike. To call CO2 a pollutant, when it is essential to life on Earth, is a blatant contradiction and falsehood.

Fourth, B.C.’s economy has always relied on exploiting and exporting its abundant natural resources. To suggest we can continue to thrive without our naturalresource base is fundamentally flawed. How will government pay for all the social services we need without the tax revenues from natural resources? Please tell me how free newspapers like yours will survive if the B.C. economy falters and your advertisers disappear.

Fifth, we geologists understand that Earth’s climate has always changed over its 4.5 billion-year history and always will. CO2 is a minor contributor to climate change and is not even remotely the dominant greenhouse gas; water vapour – one per cent of the atmospheric gasses – is. CO2 is responsible for maybe five per cent of the greenhouse effect, and human activities contribute only about three per cent of emissions from all sources.

Climate alarmists never discuss these basic facts.

Check your facts before writing scary stories. Not all of your readers are ignorant of the numerous natural factors affecting Earth’s climate. The onus is on media outlets like the Peace Arch News to be objective, responsible reporters, not propagandists for one particular viewpoint.

White Rock not horsing around with RCMP event

Missing Surrey RCMP need help finding 52-year-old Vaclav (Walter) Simek, who was reported missing April 10.

The Surrey man was last seen late February at his home in the 16300-block of 8 Avenue, according to police. He rented a car from Feb. 23 to March 7 to move items from his home to an unknown residence.

Since the return of the car, there has been no banking activity or cellphone use.

Simek is described as a six-foot-three Caucasian male weighing 210 pounds with brown hair and blue eyes.

Police note Simek’s cocker spaniel dog, Tucker, is always by his side. Call RCMP at 604-599-0502.

The City of White Rock and Semiahmoo First Nation are partnering to host a mane event on the waterfront.

City leisure services director Eric Stepura confirmed this week that preparations to welcome the RCMP Musical Ride to the seaside city this summer kicked into high gear in late March.

The Mounties’ trademark horse-

and-rider performance is to take place July 26 at Semiahmoo Park.

“We are the first out of the block, so to speak, in terms of the Musical Ride venues,” Stepura said Tuesday.

The ride is described as a one-ofa-kind showcase of Canadian pride highlighted by intricate figures and choreographed cavalry drill moves. It was performed officially in Regina in 1887; the first public display, consisting of 20 men, took place in 1901. Today, the ride is

Reddish-brown water seen flowing onto White Rock’s west beach Monday evening is being tested.

Environment Canada to examine outflow from beach pipe

Dark water to be tested Environment Canada is investigating after reddishbrown water was spotted flowing from an outflow pipe on White Rock’s west beach Monday evening.

Greg St. Louis, White Rock’s director of engineering and municipal operations, said

samples were taken Tuesday morning, and he expects to have a better idea of what caused the discoloration by week’s end.

St. Louis said possibilities include algae and leaves; it could also have resulted from someone power-washing brick pavers.

Efforts to track down the source were unsuccessful.

The water colour returned to normal early Tuesday.

Fraser Health officials “didn’t think there is any concern,” St. Louis said, and the beach remains open for public use.

’Desperate need’ for Surrey volunteers

Driven by compassion to help others HIV/AIDS in Surrey, and the number of clients is expected to grow.

“We’ve been in Surrey since 2007,” says Martella. “We have a shortage of volunteer drivers – we’re in desperate need.”

While A Loving Spoonful has 300 volunteers and 42 drivers, none are involved in Surrey.

Currently, the small staff of seven (two work part-time) is forced to make those deliveries south of the Fraser River.

“We’re a very lean organization,” says Martella. “We don’t even have a receptionist.”

If you can help, contact Adria Karchut at 604-682-6325 (office), 604-786-6337 (cell) or adriak@alovingspoonful.org or visit www. alovingspoonful.org

ne morning three years ago, staff and volunteers arrived at A Loving Spoonful’s head office in downtown Vancouver to find a five-foot-tall mural of their rainbow-and-heart-shaped logo on the wall of their loading bay.

The paint perpetrator was never identified – not that it was a problem, as the culprit apparently had the spirit of the rest of the crew: Do good and be subtle.

Their discretion is on display every Tuesday afternoon, as drivers – their cars loaded with coolers – fan out from downtown to the city and its suburbs.

With no logos on the cars, no uniforms and plain white plastic bags, they deliver tailored food packages to clients living with HIV/AIDS. A Loving Spoonful executive director Lisa Martella says clients’ privacy is such a priority, that in some families, even the children of parents with HIV/AIDS don’t know their mom or dad are sick.

Yes, the stigma still exists, even if the illness isn’t considered the death sentence it once was.

A Loving Spoonful started as far back as 1989, when a Vancouver woman named Easter Armas spotted a friend who had lost his job because he was HIV-positive. He was eating from a dumpster.

Armas began to prepare meals for him in her kitchen.

Before long, she had clients, donors and volunteers – some with cars.

Armas is still a board member.

Based in an office and warehouse in False Creek, A Loving Spoonful’s mission is to ensure that no one living with HIV/AIDS also lives with hunger.

Each Tuesday, a portion of the society’s volunteers arrive to sort the food and load it into cars that arrive in the afternoon.

Meals for the 250 to 300 clients in Greater Vancouver are rarely identical, and are closely monitored by a staff dietitian that evaluates the needs of each individual client.

For some clients with serious health issues, the food is minced or puréed, others are given a restricted-diet.

“Food is medicine,” explains Martella, a North Delta resident and former staffer at the Vancouver Food Bank. “In order for the medications to work, you need good food to go with that.”

Packages to individual clients hold seven meals and snacks, meant to last as one meal

Each individual and family receiving service is screened for eligibility and nutritional risk.

Adapting new program models to tailor to its growing client community over the years, the non-profit society delivers 100,000 meals per year.

A Loving Spoonful currently serves three client families and two individuals with

The Daily Meals Program: Provides seven easy-to-reheat, home-delivered meals and snacks to people who are primarily homebound with AIDS. • The Family Pantry: Provides produce, dry goods and canned protein to families not capable of sourcing their own meals.

• Supervised Meals Distribution: Working with other agencies in the Downtown Eastside, they offer daily, supervised meals provision to those living with AIDS whose living environment is not stable enough for them to store or reheat their meals safely.

• Emergency Service: Provides full nutrition (three meals per day plus snacks) for those who have just been released from the hospital and/or have an acute medical condition that leaves them housebound and in need of complete nutrition care.

• Ensure Program: Involves short-term provision of high-protein meal supplements to assist with nutrition absorption and weight-gain in those who present an elevated nutritional risk.

• Easter’s Sundays: A monthly catered hot lunch service open to 50 individuals living with HIV/AIDS in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. The service is named after the program’s founder, Easter Armas.

• Hot Meals for Homeless Youth: A Loving Spoonful has partnered with a youth AIDS organization to provide nutritious hot meals to homeless HIV-positive youth once a week.

• Prenatal Program: A Loving Spoonful launched this program in 2010 due to the increased number of pregnant women applying for service. Clients are given attention by a dietitian throughout their pregnancy.

Merger ‘to better serve community’

Kiwanis clubs unite Sarah Massah Staff Reporter

The Kiwanis clubs of White Rock and South Surrey have merged into one group in order to better serve their community.

Under the leadership of president Terry Newman, the newly named Kiwanis Club of White Rock/South Surrey was a happy merger, said Helen McFadden, pastpresident and treasurer of the White Rock club.

Each club will bring something new to the table, she noted.

“It’s a wonderful benefit of the merger to get fresh energy from a relatively new club, which was incorporated in 2008, plus the benefits accruing from the experience of 50 years from the White Rock club,” McFadden said.

Newman added that with the merger, the two clubs will spend less time competing with each other and more time focusing on creating support and awareness for the shared initiatives supported through Kiwanis.

“We looked at ourselves as a new club

and realized we needed depth and experience,” Newman said of the South Surrey club.

“We didn’t want to spend all the time reinventing the wheel, when we knew there was another club in town. So we just sort of moved onto their transportation.”

The merger has been a slow process, both admitted, with more than a year’s work poured into paper work and getting the official go-ahead from Kiwanis International.

Now, with their charter completed, members are looking towards future projects, Newman said, including Kiwanis One Day this weekend, which will include Kiwanians cleaning up and completing small repairs on Kiwanis Park Place Saturday.

The merged club members will also work on the Kiwanis Fraser Valley Speech and Drama Festival, May 11-13 in White Rock, and the establishment of the Dolly Parton Imagination Library program on the Peninsula.

Bursary foundation provides financial boost

It was no half-baked idea that led to the organizing of a fundraiser benefitting bursaries offered through the White Rock/South Surrey branch of the Canadian Federation of University Women.

Organizers, including Peninsula resident Lorna MacGregor, were looking for a way to raise muchneeded funds, while still creating a fun, interactive event. The result was a baking and tasting demonstration with Lorna’s daughter-in-law, former Joe Fortes pastry chef Kelly Urbanoski MacGregor, followed by a tea showcasing the goodies.

“It will be a really interactive event. She loves bringing people up to taste and help out with the baking,” Lorna said. “She will have some goodies made in advance for the tea, but the demo will include a

Finest Fundraiser

pavlova and a surprise treat.”

Proceeds from each $25 ticket will go directly to the CFUW bursary fund, which provides women a financial boost towards their post-secondary education.

The Peninsula branch of the foundation was first founded in 1959, and has helped dozens of women pursue higher education.

“I joined because I wanted to help people further their education with less student debt,” Lorna said. “Secondly, the activities of the club are so much fun and I’ve met so many people who like to do the same things as I do.”

The foundation creates a sense of camaraderie among women of all ages, Lorna noted.

“It’s women helping women,” she said. “That’s a beautiful thing.”

Renovate your home Your Organic Landcare Specialists Specializing in Spring cleanups & ongoing maintenance of your lawn and garden.

Run by James von Broembsen, Organic Master Gardener, Ladybug Landscaping LTD. is a company focused on lawn & garden maintenance as well as

Affordable Organic Landscaping having a distinct design and installation branch, committed to making the world a more beautiful place.

Ladybug had its humble start 10 years ago, when it was just James and his trowel. Before “going green” became a trendy hot button issue, Ladybug was already armed with sustainable practices and a strong ideological stance against harsh, unnecessary chemicals. All this culminated in exemplary work, and phenomenal results. The first assignment was a neighbour’s house, and the services were exchanged for a particularly delicious rhubarb pie. From then on word of mouth spread, prices were set, quotes were sent out, and affordable organic landscaping maintenance was available.

People noticed and the calls started to pour in for regular maintenance. Soon people sought irrigation, powerwashing, complete yard redesigns, water features, Zen Rock Gardens, all of which were (and still are) lovingly completed; James’ business of one transformed into a fleet of three trucks and as many as 15 employees, all working to ensure Metro Vancouver is as organically beautiful as it was meant to be.

Clinic raises $13k for ER upgrade Members of White Rock Optometry Clinic donated an eye-popping $13,000 to the emergency room at Peace Arch Hospital last month.

Doctors at the clinic matched patient donations dollar-for-dollar during a six-month fundraising campaign.

“The patients loved the fact that they were support a local organization,” PAH communications officer Martha Davis said.

The cheque was presented to the Peace Arch Hospital foundation in March.

Surrey trustee Laurae McNally speaks at Monday’s presentation of the Energy Conservation Cup to Panorama Ridge Secondary.

Panorama Ridge Secondary earns top honours

Powerless effort earns school a win An effort by students and staff at Panorama Ridge Secondary to conserve power this month has paid off.

On Monday – Earth Day – the school was presented with the Energy Conservation Cup, in recognition of the 30 per cent decrease in energy recorded at the facility over the course of the week prior (April 15-19).

The savings were the highest of eight schools vying for the Cup, and equalled power usage recorded during spring break – when the school was closed.

Guildford Park placed second, with savings of 15 per cent (down from 20 per cent in the first round, held in February); Semiahmoo, with 13 per cent savings (up from nine per cent savings in the first round), finished third.

The other four schools competing in the final round were Clayton Heights, Fleetwood Park, Johnston Heights and Sullivan Heights.

“Every school did well and student engagement was high,” Alasdair MacKinnon, the district’s director of energy management and sustainability, said in a statement.

The secondary school challenge is among energy-saving initiatives aimed at reducing energy use in the Surrey district by 10 million kWh over five years. The district partnered with Pulse Energy two years ago for assistance, getting real-time data on energy consumption for each school.

Monday, members of Panorama Ridge’s G-Force “green team” accepted a trophy and plaque denoting their win.

2013 Honey Hooser Scholarship The City of Surrey has established the $500 Honey Hooser Scholarship to be awarded each year to a post secondary arts student, or to a student with an interest in arts and crafts graduating from a senior secondary school in Surrey, or to a person with disabilities who has an interest in arts and crafts.

As well, the City has approved an annual award of $500 to the Peace Arch Weavers and Spinners Guild.

The purpose of this scholarship is to benefit the community by encouraging persons having an interest in arts and crafts to pursue studies in these areas. This interest may be interpreted in a broad fashion, including the study of the visual, graphic or performing arts, or the development of the tools to facilitate these arts.

All interested persons are invited to make application for this scholarship in writing to Honey Hooser Scholarship, c/o City Clerk, Legislative Services Division, 14245 - 56 Avenue, Surrey, BC V3X 3A2.

Application forms may be obtained from the Legislative Services Division at Surrey City Hall, the City’s website at www.surrey.ca, Surrey senior secondary schools, Kwantlen Polytechnic University, and Surrey public libraries.

Applicants should include school grades and details of involvement in local arts and crafts with the application form.

Applications will be accepted until 4:30 p.m. on Friday, May 17, 2013. The scholarship recipient will be selected by Surrey City Council.

No working detector in most homes

There is Wealth Through Partnership

Jeff Nagel

In today’s volatile markets, retirement can be a daunting thought. When can I retire? How much will I need saved?

We can help.

Smoke alarm drive extended Black Press

More smoke alarms are being handed out across B.C. as part of a campaign to reduce preventable deaths from house fires.

It’s being spearheaded by the Fire Chiefs Association of B.C. and president and Surrey fire Chief Len Garis says the free smoke detector giveaway is targeting the elderly, aboriginals and other low-income or vulnerable residents.

“These folks are truly at risk and we have to be very diligent and mindful of that,” said Garis. “Working smoke alarms save lives.”

Research led by Garis with the University of the Fraser Valley found 70 per cent of fires over the past five years happened in homes with no working smoke detector.

He noted seniors make up nearly a third of B.C. residents who die in fires even though they comprise only 15 per cent of the population.

“It’s extremely disturbing,” Garis said of the findings.

The campaign, backed by the provincial and federal governments and corporate donors, has so far pulled together 11,500 smoke alarms that are being distributed by fire departments around the province.

Smoke alarm maker Kidde

Surrey fire Chief Len Garis (right) is promoting fire alarms in homes.

Canada provided the initial 5,000 detectors and offered deep discounts on future purchases.

The latest contribution came from Super Save Group, whose $20,000 bought another 4,000 Kidde alarms.

Black Press is a campaign partner, donating advertising to promote fire safety. More information on the campaign can be found at www.fcabc.ca.

While many homes have smoke detectors, Garis notes too few people check them regularly.

All smoke detectors should be replaced after 10 years and batter-

ies should be changed annually.

Garis is also pushing the province to find ways to get more sprinkler systems into apartment buildings after a fire at a Langley apartment building killed an 80-year-old resident earlier this year.

Residents of buildings with no sprinkler systems are much more likely to die in a fire.

Garis said a five-year survey found 23.1 deaths per 1,000 fires in unsprinklered buildings in B.C., compared to 1.2 deaths per thousand in buildings that had sprinklers.

Week-long theatre event kicks off on Peninsula April 28

Diverse mix of plays to take stage at festival Alex Browne Arts Reporter

Val Dearden festival chair

Theatre BC Greater Vancouver Zone Festival committee chair Val Dearden doesn’t simply want the festival to be a success this year – she wants it to become a point of pride and a focus for regional community theatre supporters for years to come.

“I have a strong vision that this festival is going to grow into something unique in the Lower

Mainland,” said Dearden, a Peninsula resident well known for acting in, and producing, shows at Vancouver’s Metro Theatre.

Reaching such pre-eminence will take a few years to accomplish, she acknowledges.

It’s a known fact that community theatre ventures tend to go through cycles of renewal and decline as enthusiasts become subject to the natural ebbs and flows of life. But

that shouldn’t prevent aiming for excellence in the present, she noted, or encouraging young and small companies to get involved in the festival.

“We want to become the venue, when people think of really great theatre,” she said.

The committee’s hard work this past year seems to be paying dividends with the upcoming festival, set for April 28 to May 4 at the White Rock Players

Winners from all the zones will then travel to the Theatre BC provincial finals, Destination Mainstage, held in early July in Kamloops.

This year’s Greater Vancouver Zone shows offer everything from an edgy musical to classic and contemporary comedy and suspense, with nightly performances at 8 p.m.

First up, this Sunday, will be an encore performance of White Rock Players Club’s entry, the Neil Simon comedy Fools, about a young schoolmaster’s encounter with a village-ful of idiots in pre-revolutionary Russia.

On Monday, April 29, Vancouver’s Maniac Productions presents two new and original one-act plays – Jeff Hoffman’s comedy Public Washrooms, and Karin Atkinson’s Dating Sim. “Jeff and Karin are a couple who have just moved from Alberta,” Dearden noted. “Both shows are basically two-actor short pieces, with Jeff and Karin alternating as actors/ playwrights and directors.”

Dearden noted that both plays come with a warning of mature content.

“I think it’s mainly language, but there is also partial nudity,” she said.

“We don’t have a problem with that, but we didn’t want audiences to be taken by surprise, either.”

Next up, on April 30, is Stephen Dolginoff ’s dramatic and unconventional musical Thrill Me – based on real life 1920s thrill-killers Leopold and Loeb – from Vancouver’s Fighting Chance Productions.

Dearden notes that the director, Ryan Mooney, is also new artistic director for the White Rock Players Club and director of the club’s entry Fools.

Does that mean he’s competing against himself?

Not really, Dearden said, although it does highlight the versatility

that has helped make Mooney a force on the Vancouver theatre scene.

“They’re two totally different genres and approaches,” she said, agreeing that the dark and challenging Thrill Me is about as far away from a traditional musical of The King and I era as you can get.

But tradition is not neglected in the festival.

On May 1, Theatre in the Country will present the classic Brandon Thomas farce Charley’s Aunt (“in three acts, just as God wrote it,” said Dearden). She added that the central appeal of farce – of seeing someone “dig himself into a hole and then try to dig himself out of it” – is just as strong for audiences now as it was when the play was first presented in 1892.

DSR Productions version of the radio play Sorry Wrong Number, originally broadcast as an episode in the 1940s series Suspense, will also return the frequentlyfilmed material to a one-actor, one-act format, starring wellknown actress Tanja Dixon-Warren as Mrs. Stevenson.

For extra entertainment value, the balance of that evening will be filled out with a demonstration of Latin dance by champion ballroom dancers and JC Dance principals Joel Marasigan and Clara Shih-Marasigan.

Concluding play, May 3, is Vagabond Players’ production of Canadian playwright Michel Tremblay’s For The Pleasure of Seeing Her Again, based on memories of his mother’s irreverent tales of family and friends.

Featured in the key role of Nana will be Nancy Ebert, last seen on the White Rock stage as the Mother Superior in Peninsula Productions production of Agnes of God. Final night, May 4, is the gala and awards ceremony, emceed

by Mike Busswood, which will also include entertainment from Fighting Chance Productions (A Taste of Broadway) and The Comedy Company (Nuts In May, The Full Mountie).

Peninsula native Mike Kennedy passes away after cancer battle

Theatre community mourns loss of ‘Moose’ good pals with him into Bard,” he added, recalling Kennedy each year “moving heaven and earth to get the theatre built.”

“When we’d move (to the stage) from the rehearsal hall I’d see him across the grass, yelling ‘give ‘er!’ to us.

He’d have on a hard hat and glasses over his long hair – he’d often be shirtless – and he’d be smiling with that beautiful gap in his teeth.”

White Rock-born artist wraps up residency with exhibit

Local Rotary proudly present:

Experimental year pays off Janis Warren Black Press

Ask the White Rock born-andraised James Kemp to sum up his year-long residency at the Port Moody Arts Centre and the ceramic sculptor will likely say – without flinching – that his work has improved “by 20,000 times.”

“I have moved into a new domain or new approach to making art,” said the Vancouver resident last week, who officially ends his tenure at PMAC next Tuesday.

Without having to worry about making the rent for a studio, the Emily Carr University visual arts grad said he has been given the freedom to use part of the St. John’s Street facility basement to experiment as he likes.

And experiment he has, creating some thoughtprovoking pieces – i.e., attaching a found ❝My work is concrete constantly on chunk to the edge.❞ the top of a ceramic James Kemp sculpture (using a diamond drill and wooden stub to link together) – as well as developing a technique new to the local arts scene – slicing Styrofoam and shaping Cone 6 Stoneware clay around it.

White Rock-born ceramic artist James Kemp has been artist-inresidence at Port Moody Arts Centre for the past year.

Some of his results will be on show in a series called Morphology, in PMAC’s 3D Gallery, starting today (April 25). His nine or 10 pieces to be displayed for the month will run alongside exhibits by oil painter Nicola Tibbetts (The Progress of Love) and photographer Erin Busswood (Family Album).

For many years, Kemp has had a passion for the arts; however, it wasn’t until he was a psychology undergrad at Kwantlen Polytechnic University that he began to take ceramic

and sculpture seriously.

About five years ago, Kemp joined the Fraser Valley Potters Guild, which in group shows bestowed him with a People’s Choice and Best Amateur Ceramic Artist accolades. Later, he continued his training at community centres and worked with artists Liz Magor and David Robinson.

While a BFA student at Emily Carr, Kemp didn’t shy away from odd materials: Driftwood, metal, nylon, found sheep skin and fur, porcelain, Plexiglas, pleather, steel couch springs, roofing nails and detergent bottles were employed in his pieces.

And, at PMAC, he continued to push the envelope, aiming to make ceramic a common material for contemporary sculptures rather than strictly for crafts.

“My work is constantly on the edge,” he said.

“Otherwise, I fall asleep at the wheel.”

As for his next move, Kemp plans to show in solo and group exhibits this year in Montreal and at the Leo Koo Gallery in Vancouver.

An opening reception for the exhibits takes place at PMAC (2425 St. John’s St.) tonight from 6 to 8 p.m.

An ‘original approach’ › from page A33 wall up between us.

“That’s how classical music used to be when it was first played – really, we’re getting back to the original approach.”

About 70 per cent of the performance of their own compositions is improvising on chord structures, he noted, adding that it sometimes leads to wild flights of fancy and extended introductions that raise a chuckle among the musicians themselves.

While Littlejohn said the trio makes “no apologies for who we are,” he admits they had a little trepidation about the reaction they’d receive from audiences when they first took the beat box to performances.

They needn’t have worried, he said, adding that the approach seemed to work even with more senior audiences who might have been expected to be more conservative.

“The only complaint we got at first was that people couldn’t hear it, but we soon figured out how to mic it,” he said.

“For us, one of the defining moments was a performance in Burns Lake. We were trying to be careful, but we kind of touched it off and this senior lady in the front row yelled out ‘Boy that’s hot!’

“It turned out they wanted hip hop.”

Surrey Choral Arts Society performers will be dusting off their best old country accents for a special evening of eminently hummable songs from British musical theatre this Saturday at 7:30 p.m. at First United Church, 15385 Semiahmoo Ave. Featuring the Surrey Youth Chorus, Adult Chorus and Surrey Children’s Choir, the show, directed

by Stephen Horning, culminates in a second act performance of Gilbert & Sullivan’s Trial By Jury, with full choreography by Carol Coulson.

The one-act operetta is notable as having inaugurated the brilliant partnership of W.S. Gilbert (libretto) and Sir Arthur Sullivan (composer) in 1875 – a teaming that ultimately led to such classics as HMS Pinafore, The Mikado and The Pirates of Penzance.

Supplying piano accompaniment will be Miri Lee. Tickets are available from Tapestry Music, by calling 604-536-3112, or at the door.

Bayside men’s rugby team faces relegation

Surrey plays Brooks Saturday

Eagles set for west’s best teams

Sharks ousted Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

The Bayside Sharks’ top men’s team will most likely be playing in a lower division next season, after finishing the BC Premier Rugby League spring season in last place.

The Sharks dropped their final regular-season game of the year Saturday, 76-5 to Burnaby Lake, and will finish eighth out of eight teams in the circuit, meaning they’ll drop down to first division next season.

The only way the Sharks will stay in the premier league is if the top first-division club – which won’t be determined until midMay – chooses not to move up to premier.

“We’re not sure yet what’s happening in the league below us, it’s a work in process,” said Bayside head coach Pat Kearney. “But we’re preparing as though we’ll be relegated.

“For us, we don’t consider it a death sentence though, like maybe some clubs would. We have a young team with players who need to play as many games as they can, and it doesn’t matter what league it’s in.”

The Sharks were relegated to first division in 2011, but lasted just one year in the lower tier after winning a first-division title and being pushed back up to the premier level.

“We’re sort of in between divisions right now. We’re not good enough for premier, but when we go down a division, we’re very successful,” Kearney said.

“This season was tough, but the guys always played hard and can hold their heads up high.”

With the 15-a-side team now on a break until the fall, Kearney said most of the team’s young players will stay on the pitch throughout the summer, either playing rugby sevens or in Rugby League – a form of touch rugby that is gaining in popularity.

Bayside’s Trevor Giesbrecht tries to pull down a ball during a rugby game earlier this year.

One game at a time.

It’s boilerplate coach-speak – in the sports cliché hall of fame alongside such gems as “giving it 110 per cent,” and “it is what it is.”

Nevertheless, “one game at a time” is exactly the way Surrey Eagles head coach Matt Erhart and his players are planning to prepare for the Crescent Point Energy Western Canada Cup, which hits the ice in Nanaimo this weekend.

And considering all but their B.C. Hockey League colleagues, the Nanaimo Clippers, will be unfamiliar to them, it’s not a bad strategy.

The Eagles play the first game against the Alberta Junior Hockey League champion Brooks Bandits Saturday, and follow that Matt Erhart with a game Monday Eagles coach against the Steinbach Pistons, champs of the Manitoba junior ‘A’ circuit.

Other teams taking part include the host Clippers – who’ve sat idle since March 20 after being eliminated in the first-round of BCHL playoffs – and the Yorkton Terriers (Saskatchewan).

“We’re not familiar (with the other teams), but it’s the same for everybody,” Erhart said.

“We play Brooks first, so I’m going to watch Brooks’ last game online, and show it to the guys so we can get a feel for them, and our game Saturday is the first one of the day, so after that, we can watch all the other teams in person.

“We’re just going to focus on one team at a time. We’ll worry about Brooks, then move on to (Steinbach).”

The five-team tournament will start with a round-robin, in which each team plays each other once. From there, the fifth-place team is eliminated, and the No. 1 and 2 seeds will face off, with the winner earning the first berth in the Royal Bank Cup national tournament.

The three and four seeds will also play, with the loser eliminated and the winner › see page A37

Lack of games leads to sloppy play for Premier Baseball League squad

Long day results in loss for rain-weary Tritons Sports Reporter

The White Rock Tritons spent more time repairing their home field than they did playing on it last weekend, thanks to rain which has slowed the start of the B.C. Premier Baseball League season to a crawl.

On Sunday, the team arrived at their South Surrey Athletic Park home diamond early, about 8 a.m., in order to restore the rain-soaked field into playable condition in advance of a planned doubleheader against the visiting Nanaimo Pirates, the first half of which was to start at 1 p.m.

But the rain didn’t stop, and instead of an early-afternoon start, Game 1 – won 5-1 by Nanaimo – wasn’t played until 5 p.m. The two teams got through six innings of the nightcap before play had to be suspended – the Pirates had to catch a ferry home – with the score tied 3-3 in the sixth inning.

The last inning of that game will be played the next time the two teams are scheduled to face each other.

“It’s tough. We had a team breakfast and then we were at the field early in the morning and basically didn’t get home until after 10 p.m.,” said Tritons’ coach

Eagles on a roll › from page A35 playing whichever top-two seed lost the one-versus-two seed battle. The winner of that game also earns a berth in the RBC Cup, set for next month in Summerside, P.E.I. “It’s kind of set up like curling, the way the tournament works,” Erhart said. “It’s good because it rewards you for having a good round-robin, but at the same time, if you have a rough start and lose a couple, you’re still able to come back.”

The Eagles, who defeated the Penticton Vees for the Fred Page Cup Sunday night, are on a 14-3 run this postseason, and while the other teams, Nanaimo excluded, are also riding momentum gained by winning their respective league titles, Erhart is confident his group will continue its charge.

“We’re 14-3, and really, have been on a pretty good roll since Christmas,” he said.

“We’re on a bit of an emotional high, and our guys are focused. They want to win the Royal Bank Cup. “We haven’t talked about the Royal Bank Cup yet, but everyone knows that’s what we’re going after… (Westerns) is just another stage we have to get through.”

Western Canada Cup, or for results as they happen, visit www. westerncanadacup.ca

Shaw invited To say Surrey Eagles forward Brady Shaw is having a pretty good week may be an understatement.

First, the 20-year-old Ottawa native won the Fred Page Cup, knocking off Penticton, a team that once released him. And also this week, Shaw learned he’d been invited by the Montreal Canadiens to the NHL team’s development camp this summer.

“When they asked me to come to their camp, I was pretty excited,” said Shaw, who is the son of former NHL defenceman Brad Shaw.

“It’ll be tough. I’m going to put in a lot of hard work leading up to it, and hopefully it’ll pay off.”

Erhart said Shaw’s invite was “nice recognition” for the veteran forward, who finished fifth in BCHL scoring during the regular season.

“It’s exciting news for Brady,” Erhart said.

“I think his overall game has gone to the next level since he joined our team… it’ll be a good experience for him.”

Russ Smithson. “It was great of the Pirates to stick around as long as they did, but it’s tough not playing. We’re pretty rusty.”

White Rock did play Monday night at home against the Vancouver Cannons, losing 7-2.

The Tritons now sport a record of 1-2, and while nearly every team has been affected by rainouts, some teams have played as many as eight or nine games already.

Smithson said the lack of games has affected his team in the early going.

“It didn’t go great (this week).

We’ve aren’t playing poorly, we just aren’t executing,” he said.

“We haven’t thrown a lot of strikes, and our hitters have had a lot of strikeouts… so many strikeouts.

“Our timing is just off a little bit.”

One highlight from Monday’s loss to Vancouver was a home run off the bat of first baseman Zach Campagne, who knocked a Ryan Matsuda pitch over the fence for the team’s first round-tripper of the year.

Assuming the weather co-operates, the Tritons will be on the field plenty in the next two weeks. They play four times this weekend – twice Saturday, twice Sunday, all at home – and have

three midweek games next week, followed by two more the next weekend.

Surrey’s other two PBL teams – the North Delta Blue Jays and Whalley Chiefs – managed to get on the field last weekend.

The Jays split a doubleheader against the Coquitlam Reds Saturday in North Delta, winning the first game 5-0 and losing the second, 4-2.

The Blue Jays also played Tuesday night in Abbotsford, beating the Cardinals 4-2.

The Chiefs played Tuesday as well, dropping an 11-1 game to Coquitlam at Mundy Park.

THIS IS MY PATHFINDER.

National champ A trio of Surrey hockey players – and one assistant coach – are national champions after the junior ‘B’ Richmond Sockeyes captured the Keystone Cup this week in St. Malo, Man. The Sockeyes won the title Sunday with a 5-2 win over the Saskatoon Royals and among those celebrating the team’s victory were forwards Jake Roder, Stephen Campbell and Dean Allison, as well as assistant coach Ron Paterson, a South Surrey businessman and former owner of the Surrey Eagles.

“We had a lot of guys in our room, who in some cases have played together since minor hockey and are longtime friends,” said Sockeyes head coach Aaron Wilbur. “It was great to see them complete their junior hockey careers in such a way. It’s really cool.”

In recent years, the Sockeyes have had strong connections to Surrey.

When the team won the Keystone Cup in 2009, eight players – nearly a third of the team’s roster – hailed from Surrey, including Roder.

LUXURY THAT’S STILL 100% JEEP.

United seek B.C. titles Rick Kupchuk Black Press

Midway through BC Soccer’s Provincial Cup competitions, it’s still possible Surrey United can achieve a rare double for the second consecutive year.

Both the men’s and women’s team from United have reached the semifinal round in their knockout competitions, a year after each won a B.C. championship and a berth in the national championships.

The women, seeking a 10th consecutive Provincial Cup title, easily stopped the Victoria Athletics 8-1 last Sunday at Cloverdale Athletic Park.

United will host the Castaways of the Lower Island Women’s Soccer Association Sunday at 12:30 p.m. in Cloverdale.

Victoria’s Katie Vincent (left) and Surrey United’s Ali Benes fight for the ball during a Provincial Cup soccer game at Cloverdale Althetic Park April 21.

Firefighters, also playing in Cloverdale on Sunday, stopped Vancouver Metro Soccer League (VMSL) rivals Estrella de Chile 2-1 in a Provincial Cup men’s game.

Ryan Reynolds headed home a cross from Steve Kindel to give Surrey the lead after 20 minutes of play. United was forced to play a

man down for about 20 minutes, as Colin Streckmann was sent off for his second yellow card of the match.

Estrella de Chile then lost a player for a second caution early in the second half, and with the teams playing with 10 men each, the visitors tied the game.

Joseph Martin then netted the winning goal.

Metro Vancouver has unveiled www.localgovernmentmatters. ca, a website where it’s quizzing provincial parties on their positions on municipal issues leading up to the May 14 election.

The regional district hopes it puts more focus on the need for reform of TransLink, the need for longterm sustainable funding for transit and

infrastructure, and other municipal issues member cities want the next government to address.

“The board will not be endorsing any political party,” Metro vice-chair Raymond Louie said, calling it an “entirely non-partisan initiative.”

The region says cities are profoundly affected by senior government decisions – such as new federal sewage effluent regulations that are forcing Metro to upgrade two treatment plants at a cost of $1.4 billion.

The topics include agriculture, with a question asking what

Proposed retail mecca on Sea Island questioned

YVR plan criticized Jeff Nagel

59 MPG UP TO

Black Press

Vancouver International Airport’s plan to build a large destination shopping mall on Sea Island is raising eyebrows with some Metro Vancouver politicians.

Vancouver Coun. Geoff Meggs told Metro’s transportation committee last week that he found it “depressing” the giant luxury outlet mall is on a Metro list of regionally significant infrastructure projects.

“I’d LEADER like to think that’s not what the THE - 1/4 Page airport had in mind when they made the Canada Line investments,” he said, referring to YVR’s contribution allowing an extra station to be built on the SkyTrain spur to the airport.

Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan also questioned why the airport is shifting its focus from air cargo and travelrelated projects.

“I think it’s time to say whether we really want to create a new town centre at the airport,” he said.

The 460,000-square-foot outlet mall, featuring European and American designer and mainstream brands, is to be built near Templeton Station.

The airport authority expects much of the traffic would come to the mall via the Canada Line.

Richmond Mayor Brodie said a previously proposed location on Russ Baker Way far from the rapid transit line made less sense given YVR’s $200-million-plus contribution to the Canada Line.

While the Templeton site is much better, he noted it will still pull shoppers away from the main No. 3 Road commercial corridor in Richmond and added his council still questions the overall logic.

“We really don’t understand why the airport is in the business of a retail mall,” Brodie said.

YVR expects to earn revenue from what it has deemed to be surplus land.

Brodie said site preparation is already underway.

Truckers argue no need for costly new AirCare-like program

Tests build case to curb dirty diesel trucks: Metro Jeff Nagel Black Press

Although the trucking industry has become progressively cleaner, the dirtiest diesels on the road are much heavier polluters than the average big rig.

That’s the conclusion of new research that Metro Vancouver says underscores the need for new ways to curb the worst offenders.

Metro used roadside sensors on a parked trailer to test the exhaust from nearly 12,000 trucks, buses and other heavy-duty equipment last summer.

Emission standards have been tightened steadily over the years and older trucks account for a disproportionate share of the industry’s emissions.

But the testing found “gross emitters” – the worst 10 per cent of trucks in each age group – release four to five times more nitrogen oxides and diesel soot than a typical truck of the same age and 11 times more carbon monoxide.

“Identifying these high emitters may be worth considering,” said Metro airquality planner Eve Hou. She said emission control

She said an Ontario testing program saw fewer than four per cent of trucks there fail.

Sophisticated Yaletown at Bosa’s Pacific Point

By Kerry Vital

Luxurious sophistication is of the utmost importance at Bosa Development’s Pacific Point, located in Vancouver’s Yaletown area. With spacious floorplans, modern features and amenities and a fantastic waterside location that appeals to those looking for a vibrant neighbourhood, it comes as no surprise that the homes have been selling quickly.

“Response has been overwhelming for Pacific Point,” says Bosa Sales and Marketing Manager Lisa Murrell.

“There simply isn’t anything like it in Vancouver.”

Pacific Point was purchased by Lower Mainland real estate legend Nat Bosa, who converted it from rental properties into condominiums. Each home has been completely redone, with new appliances, decor and plumbing.

“Buyers know they are going to get quality and Nat Bosa’s value assurance backing the project,” Murrell says.

Bosa has a reputation for quality homes and great customer service, and this continues with Pacific Point.

“Sales have been brisk and we are currently sitting at 40 per cent sold,” says Murrell. “A great selection of homes are still available.”

The building holds 241 homes, ranging from 450 to 1,680 square feet.

Buyers will find amazing views of False Creek, George Wainborn Park, David Lam Park, English Bay and dowtown

Vancouver from every suite, along with high-end kitchens, elegant living areas and gorgeous bathrooms.

The kitchens feature a quartzslab backsplash, polished quartz countertops and stainless-steel appliances, complemented by undercabinet task lighting, a contemporary undermount sink and imported Italian Armony Cucine cabinetry with soft-close doors and drawers, which also appears in the bathrooms.

Laminate flooring is included throughout most of the main living areas, with large porcelain tiles in the den and chic carpeting in the bedrooms.

The modern bathrooms have their own porcelain tiles and polished quartz

“

Buyers know they are going to get quality and Nat Bosa’s value assurance backing the project,” says Bosa Sales and Marketing Manager Lisa Murrell.
