High hopes for highrise in North Delta 37-storey condo tower touted as impetus for revitalization

Seated behind them are Lois Schellenberg (far left) and Eileen Mohan (black hair), the widow and mother, respectively, of innocent victims Ed Schellenberg and Christopher Mohan.

council members were touring Scott Road and came upon a vacant lot where a five-storey low-rise building was planned.

“This is wrong,” Delta CAO George Harvie remembers Delta Mayor Lois Jackson saying.

Young gas fitter narrowly missed grisly Surrey Six fate Court hears details of execution-style murders in opening days of trial

by Sheila Reynolds THE NEPHEW of Surrey Six murder victim

Ed Schellenberg testified Wednesday that he was told not to service the gas fireplace in the apartment where his uncle and five oth-

ers would later be found murdered.

Zachary Brown, 26, took the stand in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver, describing how the week-long job with his uncle at Balmoral Tower apartments in Surrey was his first week working as a newly certified gas technician.

A co-manager of the building, Tracy Carothers, suggested Schellenberg service the fireplace in suite 1505 instead of his nephew because of the type of people she saw coming and going from the unit.

Pedestrian critically hurt in hitand-run

A nonworking smoke alarm has been cited as partly to blame for the death of an elderly couple in a house fire near 94A Avenue and 157 Street on Sept. 15.

Surrey’s fire chief says more needs to be done to help seniors stay safe in their homes.

Coquitlam man, 49, turned himself in two hours after Surrey collision

by Kevin Diakiw

A SURREY woman is fighting for her life after being struck by a hitand-run driver.

On Monday at just before 8 p.m., the 34-year-old woman was hit while crossing 144 Street near 82A Avenue.

The driver of a 2005 Honda Accord fled the scene.

It wasn’t until passers-by saw her lying in the middle of the road that someone called for help.

She was taken to Royal Columbian Hospital in critical condition, with severe trauma to her head, back and neck, and internal injuries.

Two hours Bert Paquet after the accident, a 49-yearold man from Coquitlam turned himself in to police.

Surrey RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet said it’s just the latest in a troubling increase of hit-and-runs.

“We’ve seen a rise lately in accidents involving drivers choosing not to remain at the scene,” Paquet said.

“There’s no reason you can’t pull over to the side of the road and call 911,” Paquet said.

When a driver chooses to leave the scene of an accident, it’s no longer a ticketing offence, but a criminal investigation, Paquet added.

“And with that comes the consequences of criminal charges.”

A model of the Delta Rise complex.

Longing to revitalize the Scott Road corridor, Jackson felt more could be done with the property.

A short time later, Blexo Developments approached council and proposed a highrise for the 11941 80 Ave. property. Jackson asked Blexo’s Setish Sharma how tall a building they needed in order to make it work. He told them he’d need 37 or 38 storeys.

It’s a story Harvie told at the Wednesday unveiling of plans for Delta Rise, a 37-storey commercial and residential highrise being built on the lot. It will be the tallest building in Delta – larger than Surrey’s 25-storey Central City highrise, which preceded a development boom in Whalley.

The Delta proposal has been controversial, with many area residents opposed to increased density in the neighbourhood of mostly singlefamily homes. Others took issue with the build-

ing being given approval before Delta completed its North Delta Area Plan (NDAP), a blueprint for development in the area which is currently underway.

The mixed-use building will include 359 apartments and a four-storey commercial component with a maximum 2,304-sq.-metre (24,800-sq.-ft.) area.

Jason Lewko lives about a kilometre away, and told The Leader in January the tower sets a bad precedent.

“This is the first highrise,” he said at the time.

“Just wait.”

As to why tower approval preceded the NDAP, Jackson said it was a rare opportunity for the municipality.

“Somebody comes along with a capital idea, and they are prepared to go ahead, and the market is right, conditions are right – all those things are more important than a piece of paper, really.”

Delta staff believe Delta Rise will be the impetus for development along the Scott Road cor-

ridor, which has struggled to attract investors.

“The interest on the Scott Road corridor is starting to happen,” Harvie said.

That is being backed, he said, by capital investment, noting council is moving forward this year with a $10-million expansion to the North Delta Recreation Centre, 11415 84 Ave. Delta will also being offering incentives to other developers looking to build along the corridor. Those could include waiving a sizable portion of building permit fees and development cost charges.

The price of a one-bedroom, 572 sq.-ft. unit at Delta Rise will begin at $189,000. The two-bedroom, 734-sq.-ft. apartments will sell for $234,000 and penthouse suites will begin at $334,000.

Blexo will begin pre-selling units in November. Construction is slated to begin early next year and the building is expected to be complete by June 2016. More information can be obtained at www.deltarise.ca

River shipping could bloom World without tunnel, CEO says Teachers’ Fraser Surrey Docks boss says truck trips could be cut Day

by Jeff Nagel

ELIMINATING THE

October 5

We nurture the love of learning

A message from the Surrey Teachers’ Association

Massey Tunnel would open up the Fraser River to expanded shipping that could in some cases help take truck traffic off the roads.

Fraser Surrey Docks CEO Jeff Scott lists that as one of the benefits that would come with a new Deas Island bridge promised by the province, provided the tunnel is removed and the channel is dredged.

“I think it creates opportunities for growth and expansion up and down the Fraser River that could result in thousands of jobs and significant economic benefit,” Scott said.

Ships carrying more containers are among those that could sail upstream if the channel is deepened to allow vessels loaded to a draft of 13.5 metres, instead of the limit of 11.5 metres now.

That wouldn’t necessarily mean larger ships sailing on the river.

PORT METRO VANCOUVER

Fraser Surrey Docks is located on the east bank of the Fraser River in North Delta, between the Alex Fraser and Pattullo Bridges.

Scott said Panamaxsize vesssels – the same size as the oil tankers that load at Kinder Morgan’s terminal on Burrard Inlet – already sail up to Fraser Surrey Docks, but they can’t be fully loaded because of the channel depth at the tunnel.

“You’ll see the same

ships, we could just load larger volume on them,” he predicted.

That’s significant because it’s uneconomic right now for shippers to essentially pay twice to use two ships, along with the cost of loading them, when they could instead send out one fully loaded

from a different terminal.

“It’s economies of scale,” Scott said. “If they have to pay twice they go somewhere else where they only have to pay once to load a vessel up.”

Scott uses the example of the Interfor sawmill that’s adjacent to Fraser Surrey Docks.

It can’t fully load lumber on a ship at Fraser Surrey Docks so it instead trucks all that lumber across town to Burrard Inlet, where a large ship can be filled to capacity with Interfor lumber, the same as the forest company’s competitors do.

“You have all that impact on the community and roads of trucking that to Vancouver, just to accommodate a deeper draft vessel,” he said.

Scott said there might actually be fewer ships moving on the river, but more fully loaded.

The terminal also hopes to drum up more shipping business with more efficient, heavily laden vessels.

Scott lists wheat, grains and specialty crops, as well as potash and forest products, as the likeliest cargo types Fraser Surrey Docks might attract.

The terminal is also in the midst of a contentious proposal to open a new coal-handling facility that would transfer coal from trains onto barges and send it to Texada Island for reloading to larger ships.

Asked if Fraser Surrey Docks could load ocean-going coal ships after the tunnel is gone, rather than barging first to Texada, Scott said he’s focused on proceeding with the coal terminal as it’s now proposed.

Longer office terms, less accountability Hiebert RE: LONGER TERMS for municipal politicians.

Every year, the UBCM trots out this selfserving claptrap to keep their greedy snouts in the public trough a little longer.

The current three-year terms (which were brought in by former premier Rita Johnston) have been a disaster, right up there with scrapping the inspector of municipalities and “empowering” councils through the Community Charter.

We used to have very economical annual

elections and a high level of accountability and stewardship.

November elections were a routine job carried out by staff at little cost.

Now staff are apparently incapable and, every third year, “consultants” are hired to run an unnecessarily expensive election.

Elected officials now treat the public with contempt, secure in the knowledge that they cannot be voted out for three whole years and don’t have to report to anyone in between.

The harm being done to B.C.’s communities by entrenched politicians and mandarins is enormous.

Bring back annual accountability, I say. Give the voters a voice, a vote, and a veto on incompetence. Stop this degradation and dumbingdown of our democratic system.

Sunday was the first wedding anniversary for my husband and I and we celebrated by running the half marathon. It was a huge accomplishment for the both of us.

It was truly amazing that we were able to walk to the start of the marathon, run, and then walk home.

By having the marathon in the heart of Surrey it allowed us to revel in this first-class city.

Last year we were inconvenienced by the marathon route as we literally live in the middle of the route.

We had guests coming over for a post-wedding barbecue and some people had to wait a long time in traffic.

We completely understand how frustrating it is to sit in traffic. But to all those that did sit in traffic, thank you.

This is a once-a-year event.

There were notices everywhere and plenty of opportunity to plan ahead.

If you felt frustrated, I hope you were not some of the people that took it out on the wonderful traffic controllers.

These traffic controllers were amazing – complete strangers cheering us on, even as we struggled with aching muscles.

I highly suggest that anybody who was upset about the marathon does one of two things.

Either mark this weekend in your calendar for next year so that you are able to plan for it, or better

BOAZ JOSEPH / THE LEADER

Letter writers differ on how the Surrey International World Music Marathon affected traffic. yet, run.

This year there was a 5K run, half marathon and full marathon to choose from.

There was also a kids’ run.

This is a great opportunity to start training now and participate next year.

Next year I hope to participate, but if I don’t, I will be on the sidelines cheering everyone on.

I hope to see you all there.

Traffic woes for residents Boulevard having major delays, but they did not mention all the other unacceptable I WOULD LIKE to comment on the

Surrey International World Music Marathon on Sunday.

I was reading the marathon routes online, and organizers were mentioning about making it better than last year. Well I feel they lied.

It was a total nightmare.

They had signs up for the last month warning about King George

routes being closed.

There were a lot of angry drivers.

When you leave your house and are told you cannot get back as the road is blocked, that is B.S. My husband was so tired; he was told by police that he could not get through due to road closures, had to stay at the mall for hours.

Unacceptable in my opinion.

Ruth Reiter

Give the 96 B-Line bus route a chance This letter is for frustrated 320 and 321 bus riders.

I ride transit every day and like you, I have seen the situation on the 96 B-Line, 320 and 321; adaptation has been slow, 320s and 321s are often sardine-can full and the 96 is not always sardine-can full.

Before you decide to be dismissive about the 96, I would like to suggest that you look at what it is providing for other riders, and to potentially you.

The 96 B-Line may be the single biggest improvement TransLink has ever granted to a corridor in history: it is the only B-Line route ever introduced that is not replacing previous

express buses. The 99, 98 and 97 all replaced express buses that were well utilized.

If you’re riding the 320 and 321 and not having a great experience, I encourage you to take note of the 96 and see how it fits with your commute – try it first. One letter writer who dislikes the 96 could walk two blocks in either direction to a stop served by it.

As a 337 rider from east of Guildford, one of the things I have noticed about express buses with fewer stops is that they are far more reliable and far more predictable. Experiences can vary on routes with lots of stops, and this is especially true on crowded local routes in both Surrey and Vancouver.

I still ride 337 and sometimes the 96, and I find I don’t have to worry about getting to my destination on time once I’m on board. The 96 has a double advantage: with articulated buses and high capacity, you’ll hardly (if ever) miss a bus.

P.S. the 96 is better-utilized than you think. I posted a pic on Twitter a couple of days ago of a full (yes, sardine-packed) 96 B-Line leaving Surrey Central for Newton. I’m also seeing regular-sized buses serving the 96 on less busy times like weekends. Rest assured, TransLink is paying attention to our concerns.

Daryl Dela Cruz, Surrey

should stand up to coal

SEVERAL MONTHS ago MP

Russ Hiebert noted he had concerns about the proposed Fraser Surrey Docks coal handling facility, with trains spewing coal dust while leaving diesel particulates all along the path – from our pristine beaches, along the corridor through Burns Bog, up through the Fraser River estuary region, to the proposed holding facility at Fraser Surrey Docks.

Yet he stated he just didn’t have any authority to do anything. This from our three-times elected member of parliament.

On May 30, Dr. Van Buynder of Fraser Health called for Port Metro Vancouver to conduct a full health impact assessment.

For a full three months, nothing was heard.

Now, after considerable public concern in the form of 10,000-plus petition signatures by Communities and Coal and from thousands of others who have contacted Port Metro Vancouver, they have agreed to conduct a truncated environmental impact assessment.

Unfortunately, it falls far short of the Fraser Health Authority’s call for a full health impact assessment.

Well, now is the time for Mr. Hiebert to stand up and be an advocate for his constituents.

All he has to do is send two letters to Port Metro Vancouver calling on them to comply fully with the health impact assessment and urging them to support the democratic process by agreeing to hold public hearings, which have been called for by councils in Vancouver, New Westminster, White Rock, and Surrey.

This is a facility which will create only 15 full-time jobs, with nominal economic benefits for Canada, and huge negative implications in the form of health, safety, fisheries and agricultural concerns.

And who benefits one might ask? Warren Buffett and American thermal coal.

It is time Mr. Hiebert stood on our side on this issue. If not now, when?

Testimony: Nephew heard strange sounds From page 1 Carothers took the stand Tuesday during the second day of the trial of three men accused of first-degree murder and conspiracy in connection to the deaths of six men in the Balmoral Tower apartment building on Oct. 19, 2007.

The execution-style mass murder that took place in suite 1505 has since become known as the Surrey Six. Schellenberg, 55, who was servicing fireplaces in the building on the day of the murders, was considered to simply be in the wrong place at the wrong time, as was 22-year-old Chris Mohan, who lived next door.

The four other victims – Edward Narong, Ryan Bartolomeo, and brothers Corey and Michael Lal – had ties to the drug

Ed Schellenberg trade and were known to police.

Cody Rae Haevisher, Matthew Johnston and Quang Vinh Thang (Michael) Le are currently on trial for the murders.

Carothers told Justice Catherine Wedge that she often saw many “young Asian males� and “scruffy� people coming and going from suite 1505. She said she told the owner of the unit –

who didn’t live there but rented it out – that she thought his renter was selling drugs.

On the day of the murders, she accompanied Schellenberg to the 15th floor of Balmoral Tower to provide access to suites where no one was home.

Carothers testified that she advised Schellenberg that 1505 might not be a good environment for his young nephew because of the people who lived there.

She then watched Schellenberg head down the hallway to 1505. “I heard him knock on the door and I heard someone reply ‘just a moment’.�

That was the last time she saw Schellenberg.

Meanwhile, Brown, who was 20 years old at the time, went to a neighbouring suite on the 15th floor, meeting

The Surrey Six murders took place at the Balmoral Tower, 9830 E. Whalley Ring Rd., in 2007. who he would later learn was Mohan in 1504.

Mohan was wearing basketball shorts and there was a ball nearby, so the two young men chatted about the game while Brown worked on the fireplace. He seemed like a nice kid, Brown testified.

Brown then went to

suite 1508, where, after returning to his van for some paint, he continued work, talking to the male tenant there. It was then, Brown said, he heard strange noises.

He passed it off, not wanting to interrupt the conversation, he testified. “They were very steady and grouped

together,� said Brown of the noises. “There was no pause between each sound. It was one, two, three, four, five. Four or five.�

In a police statement he would give later, he said they didn’t sound like gunshots, but more like something hitting a wall.

His job was done for the day, but he talked to the tenant for awhile longer about a TV he had for sale, then left, leaving the building for home. His uncle’s van was still in the parking lot at the Balmoral.

handguns were used in the murders, and 19 shots were fired.

After hearing testimony from the building managers, Eileen Mohan,

mother of victim Chris Mohan, expressed frustration that the apparent drug dealing of her next door neighbours wasn’t stopped earlier.

“Everybody knew about it and they sat on it and it exploded on my family. My son was stolen because of that,” said Mohan.

Haevischer and Johnston both face six first-degree murder charges in connection with the deaths of all six victims, while Le has one first-degree murder

charge related to Corey Lal’s death. All three also face one conspiracy to murder charge for Corey Lal’s death. All three pleaded not guilty Monday to each charge.

Jamie Bacon will be tried separately at a later date on firstdegree murder and conspiracy charges for Corey Lal’s death.

Sophon Sek is charged with manslaughter in connection with the case and has a court date in January.

The trial continues.

Tracy Carothers had returned to her own suite and became concerned she hadn’t heard from Schellenberg. She sent her husband and building co-manager Norman Carothers, to look for him.

Norman was the first witness to take the stand at the trial at B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver Monday.

He said after his wife asked him to find Schellenberg, he went to suite 1505. He opened the door and saw six bodies on the floor. At first glance, he thought it might be a gas leak and propped the door open for air flow, running to a man he thought was Schellenberg and pulling him by the feet to drag him out.

Then he looked around the room and realized it was something more sinister. He saw pools of blood by the heads of two of the motionless bodies. He took the wrist of one man to check for a pulse but found no signs of life, he testified, wiping tears as he recalled the grisly scene.

Norman told the court he left the suite without touching anything else, and told a neighbour and his wife to call 911.

On Monday, the first day of trial, Crown prosecutor Mark Levitz delivered his opening statements, contending that Corey Lal was the intended target on the day of the murders, and that the other five victims were killed to eliminate any possible witnesses.

Photos were shown in court of the victims lying in two groups of three, side-by-side in pools of blood, their heads covered with hoods.

Levitz alleged Johnston, Le and Haevischer were all part of the Red Scorpions gang that was aiming to control the local drug trade.

Levitz said Corey Lal was a rival drug trafficker who was operating on their turf, said Levitz. When he didn’t pay a $100,000 “tax” demanded by Jamie Bacon (who is also charged in the Surrey Six case, but will be tried separately), Bacon and Le ordered Haevischer, Johnston and a third person who can’t be identified, to murder Corey Lal. All the victims were executed, said Levitz, each suffering at least two gunshot wounds, mostly to the head and neck. Levitz said two

our reach beyond the stations to locations that touch a broader part of the community,” said Mike Madill, TransLink vice-president of enterprise initiatives.

Existing retailers who now sell TransLink passes and tickets will be able to sell preloaded Compass cards, but those outlets won’t be able to reload them or host vending machines.

London Drugs was selected to host the in-store machines after a competitive bidding process.

Madill said no money is changing hands but declined to provide details on the deal with the retailer.

Passengers will also be able to reload cards by phone or online – it’s expected many will use a feature to set their Compass card to automatically reload from a connected credit card or bank account whenever the card value drops below a set level.

Vending machines will be more important to Compass users who want to reload the card using cash because they don’t have a credit card or bank account, or choose not to connect them.

The machines in London Drugs stores in South Delta, South Surrey, Cloverdale, Langley, Maple Ridge, Coquitlam and the North Shore will be the only physical places to reload cards in those areas, which are far from SkyTrain stations.

issued a cabinet order to the B.C. Utilities Commission (BCUC) to make sure it approves fees high enough cover the costs of customers opting out of BC Hydro’s smart meter program.

The order in council, signed by Bennett and Environment Minister Mary Polak, instructs the independent regulator to approve extra fees sufficient to meet the cost of manually reading mechanical electricity meters that remain in use, or collecting readings from digital meters that have their radio transmitter turned off on request of the customer.

The order also directs the BCUC to approve fees to cover the costs of “failed installations,” either because the customer refused or because an obstacle was placed in the way of the installer.

A spokesman for Bennett confirmed that the BCUC may still decide to lower

the opt-out fees proposed by BC Hydro, or it may increase them if costs warrant.

BC Hydro sent letters in September to about 60,000 residential customers who have refused wireless meters, giving them until December to choose. If customers insist on keeping their old meter, a $35 monthly fee applies effective Dec. 1.

If they accept a smart meter with the “radio off,” a $100 set-up fee is proposed, followed by $20 a month to collect readings starting April 1.

If customers do not register a choice

by Dec. 1, their meter will be left as is and the $35 monthly fee will be added to their bill.

As it does with rate increases, BC Hydro will start charging its proposed fees as it prepares to defend them before the BCUC. If the commission orders changes, bills would be adjusted accordingly, with refunds or extra charges added.

Organic recycling exemption proposed for older apartments in Metro directive Diverting organic waste is a key plank in region’s plan to reach 70-per-cent recycling rate go to regional facilities, blocking shipments to out-of-region landfills where tipping fees are far lower and Metro bans on dumping recyclables don’t apply.

Metro planners say a trickle of waste now being trucked out of region threatens to turn into a flood, bleeding the regional district of tipping fee revenue that

RESIDENTS of some older apartment buildings may not have to obey Metro Vancouver’s directive to separate all organic food waste starting in 2015.

The regional district’s zero waste committee voted Monday to let member cities exempt specific apartment buildings when the organics disposal ban in place for regular houses extends to multifamily residential.

Diverting organic waste is a key plank in Metro’s plan to reach at least 70 per cent recycling, but local cities increasingly admit it’s too difficult for older apartment buildings without space for specialized bins.

The recommendation, which still needs Metro board approval, is part of a proposed bylaw to block garbage exports that regional planners have revived after a previous version was rejected Sept. 5.

Residents in exempted multi-family buildings would continue to toss their food waste in the garbage, which would be taken to a material recovery facility (MRF) that would use various technologies to extract the organics and other recyclables.

Since apartments have dismal recycling rates of around 15 per cent – dragging down the regional average – it’s thought that mixed-waste MRFs may retrieve more

usable material that will otherwise be dumped or incinerated, so Metro has agreed to let private firms build and run the automated plants.

The proposed waste control bylaw would require all garbage to

The B.C. government’s point man on liquor reform, Richmond-Steveston MLA John Yap, posted his own comments on the subject Monday.

Yap warned that while opening up alcohol sales is a popular suggestion, “it certainly isn’t as straightforward as it may seem.”

Yap noted that beer, wine and spirits are already sold in rural grocery stores that are licensed because their service area isn’t big enough to warrant a government retail store. In urban areas, he questioned whether alcoholic beverages should

Delta student numbers drop – again But enrolment of international pupils in the district is on the rise

by Adrian McNair THE NUMBER of chil-

dren enrolled in the

Delta School District fell again this September, with 185 fewer students showing up than

the previous year.

The biggest losses came in secondary schools, with 221 fewer

students across all of Delta. About half of that number was lost in North Delta’s high schools. Elementary schools, however, saw modest increases of 36 children across the entire district.

Deputy Supt. Garnet Ayres identified that as a positive sign for enrolment trends down the road. What is growing, however, is the number of international students in Delta’s schools.

There are 462 international students – 415 of them in secondary schools – across the district, representing three per cent of the 15,621 total.

Deirdre Annette,

director of international programs, told the school board last week that the program has exceeded its budget by $1.7 million, with record revenues and enrollment numbers.

There were 173 international students in summer school across the district in 2013, representing $138,400 in revenue, and an increase of nearly half from the previous year. That represents a 246-per-cent jump from 2011, and more than 10 times the number from 2010.

Annette attributed the increase to active recruitment in existing partner countries as

well as forays into new markets such as Turkey, Vietnam, Thailand, Ukraine, and Poland.

She said a group of 15 students from Myanmar is expected to come to Delta in 2014.

The district is working on signing an agreement with Chile and Brazil to bring 100 children here on government scholarship programs for lowincome families.

“We’ve been ironing out the kinks over the years of troubles we’ve had in the past,” said Annette, adding students who aren’t the right fit for the program are sent home and reimbursed.

Some things just come naturally when you’ve been neighbours as long as we have. Trust, respect for our beautiful environment, and the fresh, pure taste of tradition.

Fresh is never far.™

That has left positive word-of-mouth for both the international program and home stay parents, who have helped the district by accepting students into their homes.

However, Trustee Simon Truelove expressed concern about working with governments that have had human rights problems in the past, such as Myanmar.

“I’m starting to get a touch of anxiety because it’s expanding to parts of the world I wasn’t expecting,” he said.

But Annette said it could be helpful to expose children from countries like Myanmar to the positives of Canadian society and democracy, perhaps influencing the next generation.

China represents the largest market of students arriving in Delta, and Annette suggested she may cap numbers from that country in order to maintain a diversity in the program. She said she’s not concerned about limiting the number of international students in Delta just yet, pointing out that other school districts have a far higher ratio of international students.

Roughly 800 international students come through the Delta School District each year, representing a revenue of stream of $4.7 million last year.

School boards knew CUPE costs: Minister Surrey MLA Peter Fassbender says some opted to wait for NDP government to take over

by Tom Fletcher

EDUCATION Minister Peter Fassbender says boards protesting the cost of a 3.5-per-cent raise for school support should have known it was coming, but some opted to wait and hope for an NDP government to take over.

Fassbender, who is the B.C. Liberal MLA for Surrey-Fleetwood, said in an interview that school trustees have been working with the education ministry for months on “savings plans.”

They knew the B.C. Liberal government would not increase budgets to cover a raise for workers who haven’t seen one in four years, and have been without a contract for more than a year.

“I think there was some hope on the part of some (trustees) that we would, with our backs to the wall perhaps, come up with additional dollars,” Fassbender said.

“And the other reality, quite honestly, was that up until May 14 there was some anticipation that there was going to be a change of government.”

Trustees around the province are grappling with added costs for contracts with 69 union locals representing education assistants, bus drivers, custodians and crossing guards.

Mostly members of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), support staff workers are currently voting on a two-year tentative agreement that is already more than halfway to expiring next June.

Union locals and boards of education must all vote to ratify the agreement by December for it to take effect.

It includes a one-percent raise retroactive to July 1, another two per cent starting Feb. 1 and 0.5 per cent in May 2014.

Fassbender said the support staff settlement meets the government’s “cooperative gains” mandate imposed on all public service unions, because CUPE chose to accept a smaller raise and protect its ability to bank sick days.

The ministry’s new chief negotiator, Peter Cameron, offered CUPE two-per-cent raises

in each year, as other government workers have received, but the tradeoff was to give up

accumulating unused sick days.

School support staff and teachers are the

last provincial government unions to accept a “cooperative gains” contract. Fassbender

and Premier Christy Clark have offered to fund raises for teachers, if they will agree to a

long-term settlement.

Fassbender said the expired support staff contracts had to be

dealt with first, and new negotiations with CUPE will have to begin soon.

Sewage plant pegged at $560M Lions Gate facility to get secondary treatment to meet standard

by Jeff Nagel METRO Vancouverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

planned new Lions Gate sewage treatment plant wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t include many bells and whistles.

And the plant

replacement project will stop at secondary treatment â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Â not the more advanced tertiary treatment demanded by environmental groups â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Â in the name of saving money. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no water slides, no wedding chapels,â&#x20AC;? Metro utilities committee chair Darrell Mussatto said, but added there may be a very large farmable green roof and some public art.

He said the design, picked from three short-listed options, is â&#x20AC;&#x153;basically finalizedâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; subject to further public input in the weeks ahead.

And all of the region is expected to share to some degree in the $560-million estimated cost, which is up from

an initial $400 million but not as costly as planners had feared.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the first of two big sewage plants Metro must upgrade from primary treatment â&#x20AC;&#x201C; basic screening and skimming â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Â to reduce ocean pollution and meet new federal standards.

The Metro board must still decide how the costs will be apportioned, but staff are proposing that some of it be spread to taxpayers outside the North Shore and City of Vancouver benefitting area, where sewage fees would otherwise soar by hundreds of dollars.

Mussatto said the proposed design ensures the odour from the new plant will be

Georgia Strait Alliance executive director Christianne Wilhelmson, who sits on an advisory committee on behalf of environmental groups, is still pushing for a design that allows future upgrades to more advanced treatment methods and recovery of resources. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Technology is changing,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most important to us is eliminating emerging endocrinedisrupting chemicals as well as a broad range of pharmaceuticals.â&#x20AC;?

Wilhelmson said secondary treatment recovers at best half of those chemicals, which can change the hormonal development of fish and add to the contamination of marine mammals such as orcas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re eating those fish it can have

But Mussatto said high-end tertiary treatment that would discharge very safe effluent to Burrard Inlet could have driven the Lions Gate price tag over $1 billion. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too cost-prohibitive at this point to do that,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Even at the lower cost using secondary treatment â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Â which Ottawa now requires â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Metro is still counting on large senior government grants. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the federal and provincial cost-sharing we will not be able to build this.â&#x20AC;?

Metro also expects to pay $1 billion to upgrade its Iona wastewater treatment plant, which discharges to the ocean between Richmond and Vancouver.

The new plant will be in an industrial zone two kilometres east of the old one.

Stylish living at Woodbridge’s Salix in Surrey

By Kerry Vital

The Clayton Heights neighbourhood is one of Surrey’s most popular areas for families and first-time buyers alike, with its easy access to amenities, shopping, dining and recreation. Now Woodbridge Homes is offering beautiful homes at a great value with its condominium development Salix.

“Sales have been going very well here,” says sales manager Rob Carlsen. “We’re in the final stage of sales now, with a good

variety of homes left.”

The remaining plans are mostly two-bedroom and den plans, ranging from 850 to 1,000 square feet.

The five-storey Georgian-inspired building features a red brick exterior, lush landscaping and classic iron work, and every home includes a patio or balcony. Oversized windows let natural light pour in while the nine-foot ceilings (10 feet on the top and bottom floors) add an incredible sense of space to your new home. Most units feature beautiful views, so you may have

some trouble tearing yourself away from spending all your free time outside taking in the scenery, including Mount Baker.

“The location has been working really well for us,” Carlsen says. “You’re in a small, quiet building that really stands above the crowd.”

Homes start at $219,900. For more information, visit www. salixliving.com, call 604-530-0054 or visit the presentation centre at 6477 196th Street, Surrey, open daily except Friday between noon and 5 p.m.

Polygon’s Canyon Springs is built in a West Coast style, and features spacious floorplans with gorgeous features such as rich laminate flooring, stainless-steel appliances and engineered stone countertops.

Natural beauty abounds at Canyon Springs

By Kerry Vital

The Lower Mainland is famous for its outdoor lifestyle and variety of recreational activities. Most residents think of the North Shore when they want to get outside. Now, Polygon is bringing outdoor living and gorgeous homes together with Canyon Springs, its new collection of apartment residences in North Vancouver.

“There are no other comparable new communities in Lynn Valley,” says sales manager Laura Cavanagh. “It’s been popular with local buyers especially since we are currently offering buyers a special financing

package.” Available until Oct. 14 only, Polygon is offering five-year, 2.95 per cent financing as part of their pre-construction sales program.

“This is a great opportunity to secure a home before we close our doors on Oct. 14,” says Cavanagh.

The curb appeal is readily apparent at Canyon Springs, with its contemporary West Coast architecture that fits perfectly with the surrounding natural beauty of the neighbourhood.

The one-, two- and three-bedroom apartment residences are spacious and inviting, ranging from about 630 to 1,100 square feet.

“These are really efficient floorplans,” Cavanagh says. “There’s no wasted space at all.”

Elegant laminate flooring throughout (with plush carpeting in the bedrooms) sets a modern tone for your new space, complemented by the nine-foot ceilings in the living and dining rooms. Buyers can choose between two colour schemes, Dark and

White.

The kitchens are particularly beautiful, with stainless-steel appliances and premium rift-cut, flat-panel cabinetry in oak or glossy white. The cabinets are complemented by engineered stone countertops, a handset tile backsplash and contemporary halogen track and under-cabinet lighting.

The bathrooms are relaxing and luxurious, with imported porcelain tile flooring, flatpanel laminate cabinetry and a modern tub with a ceramic tile tub and shower surround.

Your morning routine will be easy with the modern vanity mirror and lighting.

The ensuite also includes engineered stone countertops and Grohe polished chrome tub and shower faucets that lend a touch of elegance to the space.

The outdoors is all around you at Canyon Springs, and residents will easily be able to take advantage of this on their large deck or patio. Most ground-level homes will even have a private yard.

Homeowners at Canyon Springs will have

access to a fully equipped fitness studio overlooking an outdoor terrace, an on-site resident manager, a dog wash station and bike cleaning area and a spacious lounge with a fireplace. The landmark corner will also showcase a dramatic water feature and cast bronze art piece designed by local artist Marie Khouri.

Venturing off the property, you’ll find shopping, dining and schools all nearby, as well as the North Shore mountains and easy transit or car access to downtown Vancouver and the rest of the Lower Mainland. The close-knit community of Lynn Valley is like very few others in Metro Vancouver, where everyone from shoppers to yogis and freeriders to dog walkers enjoys an ideal balance between wild spaces and urban convenience.

Homes start at $359,900. For more information on the homes or the special financing package, visit www.polyhomes.com, call 604-973-0298 or drop by the presentation centre at 2517 Mountain Highway, open daily except Fridays between noon and 6 p.m.

HOWEVER YOU DEFINE COMMUNITY, WE CALL IT AN EASY WAY TO MEET AND CONNECT WITH YOUR NEIGHBOURS. It’s just one of the many reasons residents love calling Morgan Crossing home. It could be at the chalk art festival on Main Street (see below!), or one of the many other events, like movie nights in the summer or resident parties. How about chatting with fellow dog owners at the Morgan Crossing Dog Park, or meeting during a class or workout at Steve Nash Sports Club. Or just hanging out at the coffee shops and restaurants, at a wine tasting at Everything Wine, or on a bench on Main Street. You’ll see and meet lots of the people who live and work at Morgan Crossing… and maybe even ask out your cute neighbour, Amy. Because loving where you live should be about more than just loving your stunning condo (though we only have a few left!).

Scientists predict warmer winters Potential for summer water supply problems

by Jeff Nagel CLIMATE CHANGE will likely mean warmer,

rainier winters in B.C. as well as reduced summer stream flows, a forum in Vancouver heard Monday as new international findings were released.

Dr. Francis Zwiers, director of the Pacific Climate Impacts Consortium (PCIC) and vice-chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) working group 1, said projections for B.C. point to further warming of 2.9 degrees in the winter and 2.4 degrees in the summer by 2100, under a moderate carbon emission scenario.

Winter warming on that scale could translate into 17 to 51 more days per year of frost-free conditions, he told the forum, in the wake of the already measured reduction of 24 annual frost days since 1900 and a 2.1-degree increase in the province’s winter temperatures.

While a longer growing season might be a boon to gardeners and farmers, Zwiers noted warming winters have also allowed unwanted species like the mountain pine beetle to flourish and wreak havoc on Interior forests.

“That’s an impact that has been linked to a changing climate,” Zwiers said.

“You can just imagine there would be many other organisms that would find B.C. to be a much more hospitable place to live, even in a slightly warmer climate than we have at the moment, or a slightly wetter

climate than we have at the moment.”

PCIC researchers projected climate changes in B.C. over the rest of this century using the same models as the IPCC. Zwiers said the modelling shows winter, spring and fall precipitation will increase in B.C., with a 10 per cent increase in precipitation in winters expected and summers potentially getting wetter in the north but drier in the south.

Wetter, warmer winters could affect the province’s supply of water for drinking, farming, power generation and salmon migration.

With less water being stored as snow over the winter, Zwiers said, B.C. can expect higher amounts of winter and spring runoff, leaving less behind in the upper elevations to deliver water in summer.

The new IPCC report reiterated that the planet is warming and people are the probable cause.

But some observers criticized it for downgrading projected temperature increases due to a 15-year “pause” in average surface temperature rise.

Zwiers maintained human influence is clear and action is urgently needed to both reduce emissions and adapt to expected “substantial” impacts.

The IPCC report predicts Canada will face more warming than the global average, along with more frequent and more intense extreme weather events.

J.R. Clarke (80) and Travis McColl (83) of the Frank Hurt Hornets tackle a Hugh Boyd Trojans opponent during a Senior AA high school football game last weekend. The Hornets won 20-7.

Huge win at home for Panthers Lord Tweedsuir upends W.J. Mouat Hawks in Cloverdale

by Rick Kupchuk TO THE Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers, a 31-20 victory over the W.J. Mouat Hawks meant more than just remaining undefeated.

A first-ever victory over the Abbotsford school that has lost just once during the regular season in each of the past four seasons was huge for a Panthers team in their fifth season in Senior AAA high school football.

“It’s one of the biggest wins in the history of our program,” said Thornton. “To beat Mouat was a big deal.”

The Panthers scored two quick touchdowns to put Mouat in a hole. On the first play from scrimmage, Jamel Lyles raced 85 yards for the first major score. He ran 55 yards for another score minutes later, on Tweedsmuir’s second offensive play of the game, for a 13-0 lead for the home side.

The Hawks scored their first major of the game in the second quarter, and

turnovers were the deciding factor in a tacked on a two-point convert to cut the game played in very wet conditions. difference to 13-8.

“The big key was they turned it over The Panthers stretched the lead to five times, and we didn’t turn it over 25-8, then the Hawks began to rally late once,” said Thornton. “To not turn it in the game. Two unconverted scores left over once in a high school the gap at 25-20, with game played on a rainy, momentum on the side muddy day was something of the visitors. else.”

In Senior AA play: Q The Frank Hurt Hornets improved to 1-1 in the Southern Conference of the B.C. High School Football Association after a 20-7 victory over the Hugh Boyd Trojans.

Bash Sise-Odaa rushed for 100 yards and a pair of touchdowns and Rashon Loobie added one for the Hornets at Frank Hurt Secondary. Quarterback Josh Zivney threw for 60 yards and carried the ball for another 40. Alex Garcia, Goerdelon Gamez and Hamza Khan each had six tackles and a forced fumbles.

“Our play was okay, but we made too many mistakes in the red zone which could have led to a couple more scores,” said Hornets coach Duane Linnen. “I told the players we lack that killer instinct and by that I mean Hugh Boyd was tired and we didn’t take advantage of that, and if we want to make the playoffs we need to take advantage of teams when they are tired.”

Large crowds at LEC for international volleyball More than 4,000 watch gold medal game of NORCECA championships in Langley

by Gary Ahuja

MORE THAN 10,000 fans — including standing room only in the arena bowl for the final — flocked to the Langley Events Centre (LEC) over the course of the week for the NORCECA (North, Central America and Caribbean Volleyball Confederation) men’s volleyball Continental championships Sept. 25-28.

“It was really exciting to see the full house that we had for the gold medal match,” said Hugh Wong, an international relations officer for Volleyball Canada. He is also a vice-president and executive committee member for NORCECA and a member of the board administration for the international volleyball federation.

“We rarely see events at the NORCECA level that went as well as

what occurred there. The organization and operation of the event was excellent.”

“I thought the Langley Events Centre did a great job in executing the event,” he added.

The United States defeated Canada 3-0 (25-23,25-20,25-14) to win the gold medal.

Capacity in the arena bowl at the Langley Events Centre is 3,900 and once all the suites are factored in,

There were 4,097 fans on hand for the gold medal game and a total of 10,527 over the six days.

Having Canada in the final “helped the energy in the building” said Jared Harman, the LEC’s director of business development.

As for future events — the LEC also hosted the under-23 men’s volleyball Continental Cup in September 2012 — Wong said this

venue would be considered as host once again.

“We have an obligation to host events right across the country (but) when an event comes up for the west, Langley will always be foremost in our minds.”

Brossoit assigned to Alaska

TWO WEEKS after he was assigned to the Abbotsford Heat, goaltender Laurent Brossoit is on the move again.

The Cloverdale native and Calgary Flames prospect was among seven players assigned Wednesday to the Alaska Aces, the East Hockey Hockey League team that is a developmental affiliate of the American Hockey League’s Heat.

Brossoit played the last 30 minutes of the Heat’s lone exhibition game Sept. 22 in Abbotsford against the Utica Comets, allowing one goal on seven shots.

The Aces begin their regular season Oct. 18-19 with home game against the San Francisco Bulls in Anchorage.

The Heat will still have a product of the Cloverdale Minor Hockey Association in their lineup when they open their season tomorrow (Friday) in Cleveland against the Lake Erie Monsters.

Defenceman Tyler Wotherspoon was assigned to the Heat by the Flames last week.

Wotherspoon and Brossoit were drafted by the Flames in the 2011 National Hockey League Entry Draft.

– the Canadian crosscountry road hockey tour that raised over 350,000 pounds of food for donation in 2013 – has partnered with the BCHL for select game nights during the league’s current season.

With the BCHL Five Hole For Food challenge, teams will be encouraging fans in attendance to best their rival cities by raising the most canned donations for food banks around British Columbia.

The first event night is this Friday – October 4 – in Nanaimo, as the Clippers host Cowichan Valley at Frank Crane Arena.

not just the holidays,” said BCHL communications director Brent Mutis, in a release on FiveHoleForFood.com “By capitalizing on the natural rivalries that exist between our teams, we hope to generate increasing donations as we proceed to make a real difference in each community.”

On its annual crossCanada tour, Five Hole For Food (FHFF) hosts road hockey games in popular city centres – including its flagship game on Granville Street in Vancouver – and asks participants to bring a stick (for the game) and a can of food.

This year, FHFF shattered its goal of 250,000 pounds of food, eclipsing that by over 100,000 pounds.

Over four years of the tour’s existence – it was started in 2010 after the Vancouver Winter Olympics – Five Hole has raised over half a million pounds of food.

The organization’s founder, Richard Loat (from North Vancouver), has also branched out with Footy For Food, a soccer tour with the same goal that runs through Ireland, England, Wales and Scotland.

The full 2013 BCHL Five Hole For Food schedule is: Nanaimo Clippers – Friday, Oct. 4 Langley Rivermen – Saturday, Oct. 19 Coquitlam Express – Friday, Nov. 1 West Kelowna Warriors – Friday, Nov. 15 Trail Smoke Eaters – Saturday, Nov. 16 Victoria Grizzlies – Saturday, Nov. 30 Powell River Kings – Friday, Dec. 6 Salmon Arm SilverBacks – Saturday, Dec. 7 Alberni Valley Bulldogs – Saturday, Dec. 14 Chilliwack Chiefs – Sunday, Dec. 29 Vernon Vipers – Friday, Jan. 10, 2014 Surrey Eagles – Friday, Jan. 31 Penticton Vees – Friday, Feb. 7 Cowichan Valley Capitals – Friday, Feb. 21.

Lions fall to Tigers Marquell Arnold-Milanzi of the North Surrey Lions fights carries the ball against the Coquitlam Tigers during an Atom Division football game Sunday in Coquitlam. The Tigers won 20-14.

Before her 19th birthday, Marilyn found herself without a place to live.

During the next two years, she slept in parks and various shelters, feeling “really uncomfortable and a little hopeless.” The one thing that comforted her was alcohol: “It was the only thing I found that would make me happy at that time,” said Marilyn.

Then, during her stay at a shelter, Marilyn learned about Surrey Urban Mission - a community centre that offers meals, programs, and individual assistance. Marilyn embraced the services and the friendship that the Mission provided, taking part in various community activities and getting daily meals.

In the caring and healthy environment of the Mission, Marilyn decided, at 21, that she “was tired of being homeless and drinking all the time.”

She battled her addiction and attended a college, where she received a hard-earned secretarial certificate.

Marilyn is now raising two young sons in a two-bedroom apartment, happy with how her life has unfolded, thanks to the continued friendship and support of the Mission. Already an inspiration to friends and family to get sober, she hopes to become an addictions counselor and outreach worker. She wants to show, as someone who was once there, that there is hope for a better life.

Organizations like Surrey Urban Mission are supported by Surrey Homelessness & Housing Society. Visit www.surreyhomeless.ca for more stories on how Ending Homelessness Is Possible.

winless last weekend in Vancouver Metro Soccer League Premier Division play.

The defending provincial champion Surrey United Firefighters were the lone side to earn a point, playing to a 2-2 draw in North Vancouver against Norvan FC. After falling behind 2-0, United rallied in the last 15 minutes of the first half on goals by Thomas Lowndes and Roman Doutkevitch to tie the score at halftime. Liam Miller assisted on both goals.

Surrey is now in fifth place in the 12-team Premier Division with a 1-3-0 (won-tied-lost) record. They host Inter FC (1-0-3) Saturday afternoon at Cloverdale Athletic Park. Kickoff is at 2:30 p.m.

CCB-TU United fell 4-2 Friday night in Vancouver to Croatia SC, a team which was in last place before earning their first victory of the season.

Croatia opened the scoring, but Milan Rahmati netted a pair of goals to give United a 2-1 lead with 25 minutes to play. Croatia tied the game five minutes later, then after a red card to CCB-TU, netted the winning goal.

CCB-TU, in seventh place at 1-1-2 will host the Langley FC Hurricanes tomorrow (Friday) at 8:30 p.m. at Newton Athletic Park.

ICST Pegasus also lost to a team that had not won in the first three weeks of the season. The Metro-Ford Wolves of Coquitlam stunned Pegasus 4-1 at Newton Athletic Park Friday night.

Adam Costley scored the goal for Pegasus, now at 1-1-2.

Pegasus visits Westside FC (2-1-1) in Vancouver Sunday.

STRAWBERRY HILL LIBRARY TAX EXEMPTION BYLAW No. 18051 NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN of the intention of the City Council of the City of Surrey, pursuant to Section 227 and Section 94 of the Community Charter S.B.C. 2003, c.26, to provide exemption from property taxes for a period of 10 years, (2014 - 2023 Taxation Years) for the property located at 7399 – 122 Street, otherwise known as the Strawberry Hill Library.

dipped her toes into the water at the South Surrey Indoor Pool.

But considering her schedule of late, her absence can be excused.

The 22-year-old swimmer now lives and trains in Victoria, and she’s been awful busy in the water the last, oh, 18 months or so.

For starters, she represented Canada at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, competing in the women’s backstroke, and since then, she’s been on a whirlwind tour of Europe, competing on the World Cup circuit.

Back in August, she won a bronze medal in the 200m backstroke at the FINA World Championships, and setting a new Canadian record in the bargain.

So, yeah, she’s been a little bit pre-occupied.

“It’s been a busy few months – few years, I guess,” she laughed, while standing in the lobby of White Rock’s Centennial Arena late last month, where she was set to speak to young swimmer from her Pacific Sea Wolves Swim Club. After speaking to the group, they headed to South Surrey Pool for a practice session in which Caldwell helped coach.

“I’m pretty spoiled, being in Victoria, and getting to swim at the Commonwealth Pool, because it’s so nice. But coming back here to the little pool where I started, it’s pretty fun. I mean, I swam here for 12 years

COURTESY SWIM CANADA

Surrey swimmer Hilary Caldwell looks up at the scoreboard after setting a Canadian record at FINA World Championships last summer. and PSW did so much for me,” said Caldwell, who is still affiliated with PSW and represents the club at Canadian meets.

“I love coming back.

I get to see my parents – they live right down the road – and some friends and other people. It’s so nice to be home, even if it’s just for a day.”

Her homecoming was indeed brief. She had arrived from Victoria just hours before speaking to PSW swimmers that Friday afternoon, and the following day headed to Whistler for the Swim BC awards. It was a worthwhile trip up the Seato-Sky, too – Caldwell was named Swim BC’s female swimmer of the year, while Brad Dingey, the longtime head coach of the Sea Wolves, was named coach of the year for 15- to 18-year-old

swimmers.

Whether in her hometown or abroad, Caldwell, who is studying French and history at the University of Victoria, said she always enjoys speaking to young, up-and-coming swimmers.

“It’s fun to talk to the kids,” she said. “I remember as a young swimmer, how cool it was when Canadian Olympians would come and talk to us, so it’s nice to be able to do that myself now.”

And the message she delivers, which emphasizes hard work and persistence, is far more than just platitudes and cliche – it’s the story of her path from South Surrey to the Olympic stage.

“The message I give to them is that, not that long ago, I was exactly where you are now. I was never a standout 12-year-old

superstar, or even a star at 14 or 16,” she explained.

“I just worked hard every day and kept going, finding little bits of motivation where you can.

But I was exactly where they were.”

As proof, Caldwell points to her first few swim practices in Victoria, where she was in the water alongside seasoned veterans and swimmers with all manner of international experience.

“I was training with Olympians and Canadian record-holders, so that was eye-opening to me. It was a little intimidating at first, but then I realized, ‘Hey, I’m doing every day what you’re doing every day, so we’re not that different, really,’” said Caldwell, who had the Olympic rings tattooed on her left arm.

“You realize you fit in, and aren’t the underdog in the group anymore.

That’s when you start to figure it out.”

Caldwell is currently back in Victoria, and though continuing to train, is on a competitive break until the swim season picks back up.

She is already eyeing the next slate of competitions, including the next Olympic Games, which aren’t until 2016 in Rio de Janiero, Brazil.

“I’m on a bit of a breather for now – but just a little bit,” she said.

“The Olympics were so amazing, such a cool experience. I just wish I swam better, but I’ll know better for next time.”

Art tour to draw people in North Delta hosts its first Studio Stomp this weekend

by Boaz Joseph

N

orth Delta artists are joining forces to make it easier for art lovers to see their work.

It’s called Studio Stomp: North Delta Art Tour.

The Oct. 5 and 6 event will showcase the work of 25 artists at eight studios and galleries throughout the community.

One of the stops along the tour will be Lyon’s Pride Studio and Gallery, the home of Marilyn Lyon, who runs a custom framing business and represents other artists in her firstfloor gallery.

Lyon’s framing duties began keeping her so busy several years ago that she quit her full-time job, hoping it might also give her time to paint.

It didn’t, quite.

Marilyn Lyon “The framing has really become all-consuming in may ways, so I live vicariously though a lot of these artists,” she says. “Every time they bring (the studio) a new piece, I get excited. It’s amazing how many talented people there are out there and nobody sees their work.”

Lyon, who runs annual garden art parties at her place, says the idea for the tour was brought up at a local artists’ meeting.

“I approached Watershed (Artworks) and said we’ve got to do this as a group. There are so many great artists in Delta.”

She explains that in general, art galleries are scarce, making it difficult for artists to display their work.

“Taking it to the streets is the next best thing. This is the sort of thing that can really draw people in.”

Organizer Dave Stevens, a retired teacher and artist, says the project is a cooperative effort and represents a wide range of North Delta artists.

It won’t be just painters, but will include woodworkers, jewelers, fabric artists, potters and other artisans.

“They’re all in a different Painting by Gary Fox. place, trying to make it work.”

Although the majority of the tour’s stops will be private homes, Watershed Artworks and the North Delta Potters Guild, which share the artSpace building, will be a central hub of the event.

At most of the studios, there will be hands-on demonstrations by artists, and visitors who make every stop will have brochures stamped, making them eligible for prizes.

Five per cent of sales during the Studio Stomp will go the Delta Hospital Foundation.

A bow to bonsai Oct. 10 Artist Talk looks at miniature trees Black Press

ARE YOU OPEN to the joy of working with plants? Do you have a generous dose of patience?

On Oct. 10 at 7:30 p.m. as part of the Thursday Artist Talk speaker series at the Surrey Art Gallery, Bryan Baillie and Jim McAusland (both from Surrey) will give a fun and informative demonstration of the fine art of bonsai.

This is a lifelong interest that they’ve pursued in earnest since retirement as members of the Surrey-based BC Bonsai Society, under the tutelage of Mr. Tak Yamaura.

Admission is free.

Bonsai is the horticultural artform of training plants to look like large, aged trees that appear in nature, but in miniature.

Bonsai first appeared in China over 1,000 years ago.

It was introduced to Japan sometime between 1185 and 1333 by means of Zen Buddhism. In the mid-19th century, after more than

230 years of global isolation, Japan opened itself up to the rest of the world, and word about bonsai soon spread.

It first appeared in Europe at the Paris World Fair in 1878. The art shapes the artist as much – and perhaps more – as it does the tree.

There will be time for questions and conversation during and following the talk. The event concludes by 9 p.m.

Refreshments are provided.

This event is presented by the Surrey Art Gallery Association in partnership with the Surrey Art Gallery, and with support from the Arts Council of Surrey.

Surrey Art Gallery Association (SAGA) is a non-profit society that offers its members the opportunity to participate in and respond to contemporary art, and be part of a community that actively supports the Surrey Art Gallery.

A Jaywalking Tragedy THE ROAD RULES www.roadrules.ca

Cedric Hughes

A

Barrister & Solicitor

t the time of writing, it has been almost two weeks since Amarpreet Sivia, a 16-year-old honour student at Princess Margaret Secondary School in Surrey, was killed while crossing the southbound lanes of 128th street just north of 69A Avenue. It happened at 11:30 am on Wednesday, September 18th. Amarpreet and her two 17-year-old friends, Jaspreet Dhami and Shahana Samira Ali, had left the school grounds walking south on the east side sidewalk on 128th Street. After ‘jaywalking’ across the two northbound lanes, the three girls waited on the median presumably until they thought it was safe to cross the two southbound lanes. At the time of writing, the police investigation has determined that as a southbound vehicle in the far lane followed by a yellow Yamaha R-6 sport motorcycle approached or went by the girls, the motorcycle pulled out into the near lane just as or just after the girls had stepped into it. At that point, it would seem the collision was unavoidable.

Certainly, the force of the impact appears to have been almost full blown scattering the girls’ shoes, clothing, purses and jackets all over the roadway, demolishing the motorcycle, fatally injuring Amarpreet and seriously injuring both of her friends. The 20-year-old motorcyclist, a student at nearby Kwantlen College, was also seriously injured in the collision.

It doesn’t seem possible that such a relatively small light vehicle could cause

so much damage to so many people. It doesn’t seem possible that such a normal back-to-high-school activity as crossing the street to grab a pizza for lunch with your best buddies —“The kids do it all the time” was a common refrain—could devolve into such horrific tragedy. It doesn’t seem possible that two such quick miscalculations —safe to step into the lane—safe to drive into the same lane— could have been so precisely and fatefully coincident.

At the time of writing, the police, ICBC, lawyers, the various parties and their families, friends, teachers, school and municipal officials— all will be engaged in figuring out what happened and whether it could have been prevented.

First responders, the doctors and nurses who have already treated the injured, the physiotherapists and other health care professionals who will become involved all will do the same. That is, they will try to understand but also try to help the injured and their families move forward.

Despite its original derogatory connotation, jaywalking is a never advisable but common practice.

And increasingly that marked crosswalks are always safer is open to challenge. The article on the origin of the term jaywalking in the Today I Found Out website notes that “recent studies have shown that pedestrians … are about 28% less likely to be hurt while crossing a street if they jaywalk, rather than cross at a crosswalk that doesn’t include any additional signals like traffic lights. This is thought to be … because people who jaywalk tend to be more careful when crossing the road than those who are crossing in crosswalks.” …by Cedric Hughes, Barrister & Solicitor with regular weekly contributions from Leslie McGuffin, LL.B.

TRADITIONALLY,

children learned about agriculture as a result of growing up with the activities of food production at home.

This experience is rare today.

With fall in the air, harvest is in full swing, and Earthwise Society invites you to join in.

The Earthwise Grow with Me program invites families to learn about farming the old fashioned way – by spending a day at the Earthwise Farm, taking part in basic farming activities together, and learning first hand how food gets to the table.

The goal of the program is to create an appreciation of fresh, local food and farming
