B.C. pot vote gets the green light
City rejects proposal for more parking in Surrey green space
No extra asphalt in Bear Creek Park
Petition process similar to the one that felled the HST by Tom Fletcher ELECTIONS BC has given approval
in principle to marijuana activist Dana Larsen’s bid to lead a petition drive for de-criminalizing marijuana possession. Larsen has proposed that B.C. go around the federal law with a “Sensible Policing Act” that would disallow the use of B.C. police resources to prosecute simple possession of small amounts of pot by adults. This fall, Larsen will be allowed to begin collecting signatures in an effort to force an initiative vote similar to that used to reverse the Harmonized Sales Tax. Individuals and groups have until Aug. 12 to register with Elections BC Dana Larsen to oppose the initiative, run ads for or against the petition or collect signatures. Larsen, who was involved with the B.C. Marijuana Party before seeking the leadership of the B.C. NDP in 2011, has worked for the last year to build support for what he calls Sensible BC.

A FIGHT to keep the city from paving over a portion
of Bear Creek Park for a parking lot is over. Surrey said Thursday it will keep the area green space. The city had recently proposed entering into an agreement with a Sikh gurdwara and Vedic Hindu temple on 140 Street near 84 Avenue, allowing the places of worship to build a parking lot for 100 more cars. The plan would have required the paving of a southeast section of Bear Creek Park. Area residents were infuriated with the plan. “Leave our park alone,” George Zaklan said at the time. “It’s not what’s best for us (individually), or what’s best for us as a city.” Owen Croy Last week, the city told the representatives from the two temples the deal was off. “The city is very keen to preserve the parkland it already has,” said Manager of Parks Owen Croy, noting the city buys about 100 acres of park every year.
“The city is very keen to preserve the parkland it already has.”

Surrey woman’s Should killer be sentenced as an adult? murder nets Boy who murdered teen Laura Szendrei was 17 life sentence
by Sheila Reynolds
a four-day hearing began yesterday (July 15) into whether a young man who admitted killing a North Delta teen in Mackie Park should be sentenced as a youth or as an adult. The accused was 17 when he beat 15-year-old Laura Szendrei to death and cannot be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act. He was days away from his 18th birthday at the time of the murder and Crown began arguing Monday that the judge consider an adult, rather than a more lenient youth sentence. The man was originally charged with first-degree murder, but pleaded guilty to
the lesser charge of second-degree murder last October. The adult sentence for second-degree murder is life in prison, with parole eligibility set by a judge, while a youth sentence for the same conviction is a maximum of seven years, only four of which can be served in custody. If sentenced as an adult, the accused can also be named publicly. Szendrei, a Burnsview Secondary student, died from head injuries she suffered after a daytime attack on a path in Mackie Park near 110 Street and 82 Avenue on Sept. 25, 2010. Her killer was arrested and charged the following February. The hearing in Surrey Provincial Court is expected to continue until Thursday. Check surreyleader.com for updates.

The man who killed Surrey’s Teri-Lyn Williams
three years ago and dumped her body in North Surrey has been handed a life sentence with no chance of parole for 10 years. Dustin Lee Lalonde pleaded guilty in March to second-degree murder in Williams’ death. The conviction carries an automatic life sentence, with a judge deciding how long he must wait until he may apply for parole. Lalonde was sentenced Thursday (July 11) in New Westminster Supreme Court. Williams, who was from Calgary and sometimes went by the name Toni, was 41 years old. Police said she was a known sextrade worker. At the time of her death, friends described her as an ama- Williams teur bodybuilder who ran her own cleaning company before she drifted into debt, drug use and prostitution. Her body was found in a roadside area on June 9, 2010. Lalonde, 32, was charged more than a year after the murder, in September 2011. He was already serving a jail sentence for robbery and aggravated assault convictions related to an August 2010 incident in Kelowna. His latest sentence also orders him to provide a DNA sample for the RCMP databank and bans him from owning firearms for life.

Expanded ER ‘exactly what the people of Surrey deserve’
Tuesday, July 16, 2013 Surrey/North Delta Leader 3
Patients who used to go elsewhere may now see SMH as their go-to hospital by Jeff Nagel
S
urrey Memorial used to be the hospital some families drove out of their way to avoid when they had to get a loved one to emergency. Chronic congestion, long waits and a cascade of problems several years ago forced the province to launch the massive hospital redevelopment project now nearing completion. And when the modern new emergency department opens Oct. 1 it may make SMH the hospital of choice among those who previously shunned it. Municipal and provincial politicians got a sneak peek inside Friday, and the general public was able to take a look on Saturday. Most visitors were wowed by what will be Canada’s second largest emergency department. “I’m amazed by the technology and the vastness,” said Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts. “We need to be very proud.” At 57,000 square feet – five times the size of the current ER – it’s big enough to fit three NHL hockey rinks inside. And the size is just the start of its superlatives and unique attributes. Fraser Health officials say it will transform health care in Surrey. “It’s going to look very different and very new,” said Lakh Bagri, interim executive director of SMH. “I think it’s going to give a lot of people confidence in the care they’re going to get.” He expects wait times will improve at SMH, as a result of better triage methods and patient flow efficiencies, along with additional beds and staff. But he’s not making guarantees, noting it’s hard to predict how fast Surrey grows or how many patients may flow back to SMH who used to choose other hospitals. One of the biggest changes is that it’s really not one ER but two – a second dedicated pediatric emergency department is built into it – with separate public entrances. The idea is to separate kids from other patients, particularly the 7,000 adults a year who arrive who are mentally ill or addicted, so kids no longer have to face some of the sights and sounds of the adult ER. Those adult patients will be triaged and escorted to a separate and calming Mental Health and Substance Use Zone for treatment, rather than being mixed in with other adults. The child-friendly pediatric wing will have an entertainment centre, special low-glare lighting in treatment rooms, and isolation rooms for kids with infectious diseases. Lakh Bagri Another big change are the private single patient rooms – more than 100 of them. Also new is the satellite imaging diagnostics department embedded within the new ER. “They can have CT and radiology in examination without leaving the emergency department and have those diagnostic tests reported back almost immediately,” Bagri said. “So the treatment is a lot faster.” Similarly, he said, blood collection stations right in the ER should also reduce the turnaround time for blood test results. “Meet and greet” teams will triage incoming patients. “As soon as you come in you’re met by a nurse and a clerk who can do a 90-second questionnaire really quickly with you to identify what is the appropriate care place to take you to immediately,” Bagri said. The new ER is just part of the $512-million SMH redevelopment and expansion. The rest of the project is slated for completion in June 2014 and includes a new eight-storey critical care tower with 151 more inpatient beds, intensive care unit, academic space and perinatal centre. “This space is big,” said Dr. Wade Sabados, head of the ER department. “It’s more than that – it’s grand – and exactly what the people of Surrey deserve.” The bigger building also comes with 275 more staff – about 80 to 100 of them in the ER – and 3,750 new pieces of equipment, much of it being purchased by the Surrey Memorial Hospital Foundation. Officials say the advanced new Emergency Department will help SMH attract more specialized ER professionals. It’s all in anticipation of continued growth as Surrey’s population keeps rising. Fraser Health projects the SMH ER, which now handles twice the number of patients it was built for, will hit 109,000 patient visits next year. Adult visits are projected to rise 30 per cent from 2010 levels by 2020 and climb a further 23 per cent by 2030.
“I think it’s going to give a lot of people confidence in the care they’re going to get.”

park setting, not for third-party uses,” Croy said. Zaklan was pleased with the outcome, but believes the fight for Bear Creek Park is far from over. He estimates over the past 20 years, there have been about five different failed assaults on the park by people looking to pave various portions of it. “It’s going to be an ongoing battle,” Zaklan said.
From page 1 “It doesn’t seem prudent to be out buying additional parkland, yet taking land out of the parkland inventory for other purposes.” He said it’s also felt there’s enough parking for patrons of Bear Creek and that it’s not common practice for the parks department to engage in third-party deals over city green space. “We believe that the parkland was purchased for the purposes of Surrey and the residents in a

Pot: Organizers will have 90 days to collect the required signatures From page 1 His organization will have 90 days from Sept. 9 to collect signatures from 10 per cent of registered provincial voters in each of B.C.’s 85 electoral districts. If that threshold is reached, Elections BC would hold a province-wide initiative vote, likely by mail as was done to repeal the HST. Decriminalizing pot has received mainstream support in
recent years, including a narrow majority vote at the 2012 Union of B.C. Municipalities convention. In a debate at that convention in Victoria last September, former B.C. Liberal attorney general Geoff Plant advocated for loosening marijuana laws, as has since been done in the U.S. states of Washington and Colorado. The idea was opposed by criminologist Darryl Plecas, who was elected B.C. Liberal MLA for Abbotsford South in the May

Larsen has had a colourful career, including editor of Vancouver-based Cannabis Culturemagazine and co-founder of the Vancouver Seed Bank, which has sold seeds for marijuana, poppies, peyote and coca. Larsen resigned as an NDP candidate in the 2008 federal election, after videos surfaced showing his drug use a decade earlier.

LAC MEGANTIC AFTERMATH
Six ways to make rail safer
RAESIDE
I
t’s been just over a week since a horrific tragedy struck the quiet and peaceful town of Lac Megantic, Quebec and changed the lives of most of its residents. An unmanned train, consisting of five locomotives and 72 tank cars filled with crude oil, ran 11 kilometres down a 1.2-per cent grade and then derailed in the midst of town. It happened at 1 a.m. July 6. Within minutes, there was a massive fireball and 40 buildings and as many as 50 people were gone – dead or missing. Things must change as a result of this tragedy. First, railroads must rigorously follow safety procedures. That includes having at least two crew members aboard moving trains. Trains that are sitting in sidings for extended periods must have brakes properly applied – both air and hand brakes. Second, any train that contains explosive and/or hazardous goods must not remain unattended for more than a few minutes. If it is sitting for hours, waiting for a crew change or delayed due to disruptions on the line ahead of it, there must be someone from the rail company aboard and in the cab. Third, no train should be parked on the crest of a hill without devices such as a derailer on the track directly in front of it. Had this train derailed as soon as the brakes failed, there would have been minimal damage and almost certainly no oil spills, let alone explosion. Fourth, residents of local communities and municipal officials must know the entire range of goods transported on trains through their communities. (By the way, crude oil in a tank car will have a placard with the number 1267 on each car. All dangerous goods, whether in trucks or rail cars, must be placarded. Gasoline is 1203, propane is 1075). Fifth, the federal government needs to look closely into what type of tank cars are transporting crude oil, and other dangerous goods. The DOT-111 or CTC-111A type cars are not sufficient. Sixth, the federal government needs to make money available to relocate some rail lines away from the centre of communities – particularly in the case of lines that are hauling a lot of dangerous goods. Alternatively, the government must make funds available for track and signal upgrades so that the tracks are as safe as possible. Government inspectors must do regular checks of track conditions. In Surrey and Langley, dangerous goods are transported by rail every day. Firefighters say they are ready for a major spill or accident – but are other members of the community ready? As seen in Lac Megantic, nothing could have prepared people there for what happened. A healthy rail sector is good for the Canadian economy, but people in communities bisected by rail lines deserve to know that trains on those lines are being operated with the maximum of safe procedures.

SUMMER LEGISLATURE
remier Christy Clark didn’t win a seat in time to join her 48 fellow B.C. Liberal MLAs in the legislature for the summer session she ordered up. By the time the byelection in WestsideKelowna is certified by Elections B.C., Clark will be off to Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ont. to meet with her fellow premiers in what is now loftily called the Council of the Federation. These gatherings used to be called First Ministers’ Conferences, and there was a set ritual, largely designed for the consumption of network television. Provincial premiers ganged up on the prime minister to demand federal “funding” for every conceivable need, just as municipal leaders get together each year to present their demands to the B.C. government. Prime Minister Stephen Harper ended the show, declining to play the role of villain in this bit of political summer stock theatre, and it’s unlikely that any future national leader would reverse this prudent decision. The result, at least among western premiers, has been a quieter, more pragmatic effort to work together, rather than clumsy attempts to

is charged at the majority of care facilities, which are contracted by the health authority. Operators charge as they see fit for maintenance, disinfection and replacement of this equipment, for patients who don’t own their own chairs. In September, a $25 fee is to be extended to the few facilities still directly run by Fraser Health, which have aging equipment and no fees. In all facilities, the fee is waived for those who can’t afford it. It would be useful for our politicians to frankly discuss the trend towards contracted health services, and the role of user fees in forcing people to take more responsibility for maintaining their own health. But that is not what happens. The narrative of dumping frail, impoverished seniors from their wheelchairs has no relationship to reality, but it’s how post-modern political theatre is done.

Thanks There is another misunderstood minority from south of the border Re: “PRIde proponent not proud of Surrey MP,”
as my wife and I were walking
home from our breakfast at IHOP, I stubbed my toe and fell off the curb to the street. My glasses went one way and the bags that I was carrying went the other, and I was face down in the street. As my wife was struggling to help me to my feet, saying, “Are you okay?” a car from B.C. stopped behind us. The occupants stepped out to help. I said, “I don’t think anything was broken.” But I was hurting. The lady and gentleman from Surrey asked if we had any Band-Aids. I looked at my hands and they were bleeding. They grabbed a first aid kit from their car and proceeded to stop the bleeding and clean up my wounds. They insisted on taking us to our home, over a mile away. We give our thanks to the Good Samaritans from Canada.
Letters, The Leader, July 11. There is, I think, some unconscious irony in the letter of Will Mbaho objecting to Russ Hiebert’s absence from the gay Pride Festival in Surrey. No doubt Mr. Mbaho would support Canada’s “LGBTTQ community” on the basis that they are a misunderstood and persecuted minority. The irony is that Mr. Hiebert also belongs such a misunderstood minority, namely that of conservative Christians who support the traditional definition of marriage and who therefore cannot celebrate the normalization of homosexuality as a valid alternative lifestyle.
He is joined in his convictions not only by conservative Protestant Christians, but also by traditional Roman Catholics and by my own family of faith, the Eastern Orthodox. We are keenly aware that our deepest convictions about many things, including human sexuality, are out of step with the majority and are therefore ceaselessly under attack in the media and held up to mockery, pilloried as “homophobia and transphobia.” But we would insist that we have no fear of the LGBTTQ community (the word “phobia” of course means fear), nor do we bear any personal animosity to individuals from that community. Indeed, I have a number of homosexual
friends, and we are content to agree to disagree about sexuality and be friends nonetheless. But like all minorities in Canada, we Christians would like to enjoy the freedom to express our convictions publicly and live consistently with them without being denounced as homophobic or transphobic. I have no objection to anyone from the LGBTTQ community publicly stating their convictions. I only ask that the same courtesy and freedom be extended to those in my minority as well.

When it comes to the issue of paying for infrastructure – such as the annacis Island sewage treatment plant (above) or a new facility on the north shore – a letter writer says it’s time governments decide the fundamental question: ‘are we a single region, or are we a bunch of self-serving municipalities?’
I can understand why Surrey and other “South of the Fraser” residents are upset with paying a portion of the Lions Gate sewer treatment plant upgrade, particularly when North Shore and Vancouver residents rejected the idea of costsharing when the Annacis Island treatment plant was upgraded. The cities benefitting from the proposed treatment plant upgrades are pushing for regional tax support. However, this same group strongly opposes regional levies when it comes to supporting the “south of the Fraser” residents for transportation improvements. Our regional governments must decide the fundamental question: “Are we a single region, or are we a bunch of self-serving municipalities?” If it is the former, then maybe it is appropriate for all to contribute to the proposed treatment plant upgrades, but not before a fair road pricing strategy is introduced to which they contribute.

Interurban line could be the future
Re; “InteRuRban just a piece
of history,” The Leader, Letters, July 9. The interurban isn’t “just a piece of history,” it is my piece of history, and also part of the history of many of those who will be riding, or have already ridden, the restored rail car from Cloverdale to Sullivan stations. The interurban in Surrey will make more sense as transportation once it is extended to Surrey-Central SkyTrain station and east towards Chilliwack. The tram is faster than the bus but will never equal the speed, convenience, and passenger capacity of SkyTrain. Fred Perry Surrey
Green solution staring right at us Re: “the interurban is just a
piece of history,” Letters, The Leader, July 9. Could someone please tell me how many forms of public transit we have in Vancouver? I count six: • Expo Line SkyTrain • Millennium line SkyTrain • Canada line SkyTrain • Two forms of wheeled buses: fossil fuel and electric trolleys • SeaBus • West Coast Express How many buses run down Highway 1 out to Chilliwack and beyond? Zero. I have gone from Surrey to Coquitlam via bus before, looking for work if you must know. I
fail to see why we cannot bring back the interurban railway. If we make it more like the light rail they have in Europe, and place stations strategically along the route, it could work. If Christy Clark can spend almost $12 million on a film festival mere weeks before a provincial election, then give her staff a pay raise weeks after, then hello, she can fix serious problems that need addressing. They can also make the old interurban line a dual track like the SkyTrain. I cannot tell you how many times I have wanted to go east to Chilliwack and/or Hope, but could not. No bloody transit to take me there, not without spending half my life just getting there. Think about the benefits if
people could transit east and west between Vancouver and Hope with rapid high-speed transit. But to the B.C. “Fiberals,” that makes too much sense and would take away from their frivolous spending of our tax dollars. Europe, China and Russia have light rail and/or high-speed rail. Why not Canada? It almost seems like the prime minister and the greedy oil companies want to keep Canada in the Dark Ages with an oil-based way of life. We have an environmentally friendly green solution staring right at us and no one seems to recognize it. B. Hill Surrey

Police still investigating the cause of the blast
by Kevin Diakiw Two people are in hospital after
a large explosion and fire in the Guildford area last week. Emergency personnel were called to a home at 15890 100 Ave. on Wednesday at about 8:30 p.m. after reports of an explosion and a fire. While fire crews were fighting the blaze, police were alerted when a man and woman checked themselves into hospital with serious burns. A 24-year-old woman from Surrey had suffered extreme burns to her arms and legs, while a 29-year-old Surrey man experienced burns to his legs.
Man faces 36 charges
Both are expected to be fine and are also “well-known” to police for drug offences. The explosion originated in the garage behind the home, police say. Surrey RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet said the clandestine lab team from the RCMP checked the building and ruled out the possibility the two were making drugs. “There’s evidence of drug use at the scene, but not the quantities or specific chemicals that are usually associated with a meth lab or to a drug production of some sort,” Paquet said Thursday. Police also had reports there were about five or six people in the house, who fled after the

explosion. Neighbours observed a fourdoor grey Honda leaving the scene through the alleyway, but it was unclear how many occupants were in the car. “We believe there might have been other people involved, but we haven’t been able to locate or speak to them,” Paquet said. There was some damage to nearby homes and vehicles as well. There were no charges expected at this point, Paquet said. Anyone with any information, call Surrey RCMP at 604-5990502 or to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-2228477 (TIPS).
The 23-year-old has been in custody since June 15, and is facing 36 charges in connection with robberies that occurred in White Rock and Surrey between May 12 and June 15. A preliminary inquiry is set for Nov. 12-15 and 18. Jensen-Pickford’s next court appearance is scheduled for Sept. 4.

Cost would cover manual meter readings by Tom Fletcher EnErgy MinistEr Bill Bennett says
there are about still 60,000 BC Hydro customers who are still resisting installation of wireless electricity meters, and he wants the utility to offer them manual meter readings, for a price. “What we’re contemplating at this point is that maybe we can deliver a digital meter that has the radio turned off,” Bennett told reporters at the B.C. legislature Thursday. “We just feel that we don’t want to bully people into taking the smart meter if they don’t want it.” Modifying the meters for different customers and sending out human meter readers would generate costs that should not be borne by the vast majority of customers who accepted wireless meters, Bennett said. He offered no estimate of the cost, but predicted that more people will drop their opposition rather than pay for extra service. Bennett said he agrees with B.C.’s medical health officer that signals from wireless meters
are not a health hazard, but he doesn’t want them forced on people who believe otherwise. NDP energy critic John Horgan said he is pleased the government has finally agreed with his position that people should be given another option. But he wants the issue referred to the B.C. Utilities Commission to set the price, so customers aren’t “gouged” to pay for other cost overruns at the utility. “We said before the election that an opt-out provision was appropriate,” Horgan said. “It’s done in other jurisdictions. Quebec is leading the way here in Canada. It’s about time.” With 96 per cent of wireless meters installed, customers in some areas are receiving daily usage information on their BC Hydro customer web pages. Smart meters send a radio signal equivalent to a brief mobile phone call to report usage, and also signal when power is interrupted. Digital meters also detect when they are tampered with, and the quality of electrical supply.

A provincial government report detailing the mandated purchases shows UBC spent the most on offsets – $1.7 million – while school districts spent a combined $4.5 million, led by the Surrey School District at $523,000 and Vancouver at $427,000. Government bodies must buy carbon offsets through B.C.’s Pacific Carbon Trust to make up for their own greenhouse gas emissions as part of the province’s policy of carbon neutrality launched by former premier Gordon Campbell. Offsets bought in 2012 totalled $18.8 million, with health authorities making up the single largest contributing sector at $5.7 million. Critics have called the program a waste of scarce public sector money as schools and hospitals can’t eliminate their own emissions to avoid the charges. An audit of the Pacific Carbon Trust also found some of the made-in-B.C. offset projects that received funds did not credibly reduce emissions. Premier Christy Clark has directed new Environment Minister Mary Polak to reform the offset system.
Perimeter road nearly finished The SouTh Fraser
Perimeter Road is now 80 per cent finished and on track to fully open in December. Federal and provincial transportation ministers marked the milestone Friday, saying the new four-lane 40-kilometre route will improve the flow of goods and people, by shifting heavy trucks off residential streets. The northeast third of the SFPR from Highway 1 to the Pattullo Bridge opened last December, at the same time as tolls went on the new Port
Mann Bridge, as the Pattullo is the free alternate route. The $1.264-billion project links various industrial and port sites in Delta and Surrey.
Most home prices down from 2012 Lower MainLand
home prices have slipped in most categories over the past year and residential home sales remain well below long-term averages. The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver, which excludes North Delta, Surrey and White Rock, said sales of homes in June were 22 per cent below the 10-year average for that month. It said the benchmark price of $919,900 for detached houses was down 4.3 per cent in June from a year earlier. Apartment prices were down 1.9 per cent to $369,100 and attached homes were down 2.4 per cent to $457,000. The benchmark price for detached houses in the Fraser Valley was up 0.2 per cent to $552,200 from June of 2012. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board said townhouse benchmark prices fell 2.1 per cent to $298,700 and apartments were down 0.8 per cent to $202,500.
Water plant averted boil warning a heaVy rainstorm last October would likely have triggered a boil-water advisory affecting many Metro Vancouverites had the region not constructed its massive water-filtration plant on the North Shore. A Metro water quality report for 2012 said the storm last fall stirred up sediment in the Seymour watershed, but it was filtered out by the new $817-million Seymour-Capilano Treatment Plant. Metro utilities committee chair Darrell Mussatto said in previous years it would likely have caused a boil water advisory to a million Metro residents, as happened
once before in 2006. The new treatment plant still isn’t yet filtering water from the Capilano reservoir, because of lengthy delays completing connecting water tunnels. The project and other drinking water upgrades have pushed the average cost per household up significantly to $148 per year for Metro water service.
Bike lanes have broad support: Poll conTroVerSiaL
separated bike lanes in the City of Vancouver have broad support from Metro Vancouver residents, according to a new poll. The survey by Insights West found 61 per cent in the region support the bike lane initiative, while a third oppose
it. Support was 64 per cent within the City of Vancouver. Most agreed the lanes give more opportunity for people to be physically active and make the activity safer for cyclists and motorists. But 70 per cent said they’ve made parking more difficult and 55 per cent say they’ve hurt local businesses. About 70 per cent of Metro residents said they’d also welcome the introduction of a bike-sharing system similar to offerings in London, Paris and Montreal.
Squamish eyes options as garbage dump fills MeTro VancouVer’S
neighbouring regional district to the north is also facing a garbage crunch. The SquamishLillooet Regional
District is considering everything from new or expanded landfills to waste-to-energy options as part of a request for proposals issued this spring on garbagehandling options.
Whistler’s garbage is already trucked to Surrey and then taken by train to a landfill in southern Washington State and the Squamish landfill is running out of room.
Metro is in the midst of a long and controversial process to identify proponents, technologies and potential sites for a new waste-to-energy plant.

PUBLIC NOTICE
RECALL AND INITIATIVE ACT
This notice is published pursuant to section 4 of the Recall and Initiative Act. Approval in principle has been granted on an application for an initiative petition. The petition will be issued to proponent Dana Larsen on Monday, September 9, 2013 and signature sheets must be submitted to the Chief Electoral Officer by Monday, December 9, 2013. The Title of the Initiative is: An initiative to amend the Police Act. Summary of Initiative: The initiative draft Bill entitled, “Sensible Policing Act” proposes to amend the Police Act to no longer use provincial police resources on the enforcement of current laws in relation to simple possession and use of cannabis by adults. The draft law would prohibit the use of provincial police resources for this purpose, would require police to report in detail to the Minister of Justice any actual use of resources for this purpose and why it was necessary, and require the Minister to publish that report. The Bill also proposes that the province would call upon the Federal Government to repeal the federal prohibition on cannabis, or give British Columbia an exemption, such that British Columbia is able to tax and regulate cannabis similar to the regulation of alcohol and tobacco. As well it proposes that British Columbia shall establish a Provincial Commission to study the means and requirements necessary for the province to establish a legal and regulated model for the production and use of cannabis by adults. Last, the Bill would make non-lawful possession and use of cannabis by minors an offence similar to possession and use of alcohol.

Gabby Jamieson of the Surrey Storm ’96 Selects beats a tag from elyssa Dunlop of the Parksville Rage at first base during a Futures Select game Sunday at the 2013 Scotiabank Canadian open Fastpitch International Championship at Softball City.
National teams at Softball City Women’s International tournament starts today, Quebec leads Elite division by Rick Kupchuk The youTh divisions were centre stage
in the first four days of the Scotiabank Canadian Open Fastpitch International Championship, but international competition will highlight the rest of the week. And judging by the results of the US World Cup of Softball which concluded Sunday in Oklahoma, the six-team Women’s International tournament at Softball City is wide open. Japan defeated the United States 6-3 to win the World Cup title, a game that was a rematch of last year’s Canadian Open final, also won by Japan by a 9-6 score.
Australia edged Canada 4-3 in extra innings in the third-place game. Japan, Canada and the U.S.A. were tied for first place after round robin play, each with a 3-1 (won-lost) record. Australia was fourth at 1-3, with Puerto Rico in the basement at 0-4. The top four teams from Oklahoma will be in Surrey today for the first games of the Women’s international division at the Canadian Open. Japan opens against Venezuela at 3:30 p.m., followed by Canada taking on the California A’s at 6:30 p.m. Games at 8:30 p.m. include Australia against Venezuela and the A’s playing the U.S.A.
n The Quebec Rebelles have the early lead in the four-team Women’s Elite group. They erased an early 2-0 deficit to edge the Northwest Lady Sharks 3-2 in eight innings in the first game of the competition Saturday. They then unleashed an 18-hit attack to thump Team BC 10-3 in six innings Sunday. Team BC and the White Rock Renegades are tied for second, each with a win and a loss. n The Futures (18-and-under) and Showcase (16-and-under) Select tournaments concluded yesterday with championship games, after The Leader press
deadline. American teams claimed the top three seeds for the Futures Selects playoff round. The Spokane Diamonds, Edmonds Stars and Oregon Fastpitch were the three group winners after round robin play, each with four wins in as many games. Spokane allowed just one run to take the top-seed. Edmonds was scored on just four times and was seeded second, while Oregon surrendered five runs and earned the third seed. Two teams from the Surrey Storm rep program earned the top two seeds for the Showcase Select playoff, each with four

Jays drop four in Kelowna North Delta falls short of PBL playoff position

Four losses in as many games
in Kelowna last weekend eliminated the North Delta Blue Jays from B.C. Premier Baseball League playoff contention. The Jays fell 2-1 and 11-1 in Saturday’s double header, then were topped 5-3 and 9-8 on Sunday. North Delta concluded the weekend with a 19-28 (wonlost) record with one game to play, a makeup game tonight (Tuesday) against the White Rock Tritons at South Surrey Athletic Park. The Athletics needed eight innings to get their first win of the weekend, making the most of just two hits in the game. Malcolm Boehm singled to score Cunningham to give the Jays a 1-0 lead in the third inning, but Okanagan tied the game in the sixth on a solo home run then got the win in the eighth when a single scored a runner from second with two out. Luke Manuel took the loss despite striking out 14 Okanagan batters, allowing two earned runs while issuing six walks. The Athletics rocked three Jays pitchers for 14 hits over five innings in the second game, rolling to an 11-1 triumph. Brock Morgan went two-for-three at the plate in a losing cause, while Ryo Takenaka doubled to score Cunningham for the lone run. In Sunday’s first game, North Delta erased a 3-0 Okanagan lead, only to give up two runs in the sixth inning of a 5-3 loss. Clint Taylor with a double and two RBIs was the offensive leader for the visitors. The Jays scored early and often in the final game, but an 8-2 lead wasn’t enough. North Delta led 3-2 after one inning, getting one run on a wild pitch and two on bases-loaded walks. An Athletics error led to another North

sent backup goaltender Glenn Ferguson – who was injured for much of last season – to Oakville, along with the playing rights to a trio of players, goalie Michael Santaguida, Michael Stenerson and Devon Toews, all of whom are planning to play NCAA hockey next season. “We’ve lost some forwards from last year’s team to NCAA schools, so we’re excited to be acquiring some great skill guys who have put up great numbers in Ontario,” said Eagles President, General Manager and Head Coach Peter Schaefer. “We hope they’ll help out our power play as well, and we’re very excited to have these young men join our organization.” With the Eagles losing so many players from last year’s BCHL title squad to graduation, the Renouf brothers should go a long way to filling the void. Jonah Renouf finished second in OJHL scoring last season with 29 goals and 65 assists in just 53 games, while Nathan was sixth in the league with 21 goals and 56 assists. Both are set to attend Quinnipiac University for the 2014/15 season. The trade means a return to B.C. for the Kelowna-raised Chore twins, both of whom had stints in the BCHL before heading to Ontario for the 2012/13 season.
