Task force to tackle high murder rate Surrey in favour of Bar Watch program

by Kevin Diakiw SURREY’S MAYOR is striking a

Citing incidents that have intensified discussions on rail safety over the past six months – including the tragic July derailment in Lac-Mégantic, Que., a week after a jogger fatality in White Rock – Wayne Baldwin said a joint community forum is to be held next week to share information gathered to date by Surrey and White Rock officials, including possible options for relocating the centuryold line.

special task force to examine drug houses, the effect of mental illness on policing and the possible introduction of Bar Watch after the city’s murder rate hit 22 this week – an all-time high.

On Monday morning, police found the body of a man in front of a home near 99 Avenue and 120 Street.

Police say the home is known to them, being partly related to drug activity. The man who was killed was not a Bill Fordy resident of the home.

The homicide brings to 22 the number of murders in Surrey this year, the highest on record.

In response, Mayor Dianne Watts is creating a task force of police, Surrey School District educators and criminologists.

Moving tracks: ‘... makes sense from every angle’ From page 1

SFU SURREY PHOTO

SFU Surrey associate professor Jennifer Marchbank, a campaign school co-sponsor and speaker, is concerned that high-profile political scandals are making politics less attractive to women.

Campaign school aims to woo women Experts coach participants in hopes of increasing the number of females in politics

by Sheila Reynolds WHILE WOMEN make up more than half of Canada’s population, they hold a much smaller fraction of the political positions both federally and provincially – only a quarter of the seats in the House of Commons and just over a third in the B.C. legislature are occupied by females.

In an effort to raise the ratios, dozens of women are headed to “campaign school” at SFU Surrey later this month.

The Canadian Women Voter Congress (CWVC) is holding its 14th-annual Women’s Campaign School Nov. 29-30. Seasoned female politicians and political campaigners will spend two days coaching the more than 50 registrants on the art and science of successful political campaigning.

“The United Nations says that a critical mass of at least 30 per cent of women is needed before legislatures produce public policy representing women’s concerns and before political institutions begin to change the way they do business,” said Jennifer Marchbank, a campaign school co-sponsor and speaker. “A more collaborative political system will attract more women, and more diverse men, to the electoral process.”

As associate professor in SFU’s

Department of Gender, Sexuality and Women’s Studies, and in Explorations in Arts and Social Sciences, Marchbank is involved in outreach and advocacy work involving Surrey youth facing gender-bias.

She’s concerned that highprofile political scandals – such as the ongoing drug admissions and questionable behaviour of Toronto mayor Rob Ford, and the recent

Trina Isakson

ousting of members of Senate over improper expenses – could make politics less attractive to women.

“Scandal may discourage women from self-selecting to put themselves forward as a candidate

as women’s political socialization has been show to discourage women from self-selecting,” said Marchbank.

Trina Isakson, CWVC chair and SFU Faculty of Environment instructor, will also be at the campaign school. She says while many believe more women in politics would raise the bar for politicians’ behaviour, increasing the number of females would also equalize the scrutiny.

“Female politicians may hold themselves to a higher standard than men do because they feel pressure to work harder and better to show their worth in electoral politics among men,” said Isakson.

“But once there is true equality of opportunity in the electoral process, scandals will also be equal opportunity.”

Linda Reid, Adriane Carr, Kerry-Lynne D. Findlay and Mobina Jaffer will help campaign school attendees acquire skills critical to political success.

Prince George-Valemount MLA Shirley Bond, who also serves as B.C. Minister of Jobs, Tourism and Skills Training, will deliver the school’s keynote address.

They will examine what is occurring and come up with possible remedies. They will tally the number of known drug houses in Surrey and how people with mental illness are taking up police time.

Watts notes the city is going through spikes in murders every four years.

“It’s not a coincidence, something is occurring,” Watts said Monday.

Watts acknowledged it’s difficult to stop someone from committing a murder.

and that if you choose to embrace the criminal lifestyle, you will end up dead or in jail,” Fordy said in the statement.

Out of the 36 files (some that include multiple homicides) the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) is handling this year, 21 of them are in Surrey, representing 58 per cent of IHIT’s total caseload in the region.

By comparison to Surrey’s 22 murders, Vancouver has had five this year.

murder rate is due in part to the program that’s run since 2007. Gangsters are simply heading out to the suburbs, he said.

Bar Watch involves circulating a registry of undesirable patrons and known gangsters among participating businesses (such as bars and restaurants). Those on the list are not served and are asked to leave the establishment.

Robinson met with Watts and Fordy, who he says both want the program in Surrey. Legal issues are blocking the proposal, however.

“The RCMP’s legal section has said ‘we don’t believe we have the authority to act on this,’”Robinson said in an interview with The Leader Wednesday. “And we’re saying ‘you do’.”

Establishments have the right to refuse service to anyone, Robinson notes, and Vancouver bars in the program are passing that authority on to police.

Watts said the RCMP’s legal advice has to be challenged, noting the program has run successfully, without a legal challenge, in Vancouver for six years.

That could involve more school-based prevention programs aimed at deterring youth from choosing a high-risk gang-related lifestyle, she said this week.

Has Surrey gone far enough with its new anti-tethering bylaw for dogs?

Here’s how you responded: Yes 77% No 23% OUTDATED INFRASTRUCTURE

Rail relocation just the start

T

he proposal to relocate the BNSF train line inland from White Rock and South Surrey waterfronts – subject of a joint forum hosted by White Rock and Surrey civic leaders Nov. 26 – merits sober-minded consideration.

Naysayers argue the money it would take – projected at $350-$400 million by the most optimistic estimates – might be better spent elsewhere.

Indeed, if such money can be found, uncommitted, on a federal, provincial or local level, a similar expenditure might make a significant difference to health care in the region, or go a long way to fixing our currently broken public transportation system.

Nonetheless, the proposal opens intriguing discussion on long-term initiatives to make the Semiahmoo Peninsula a better, more logical and, ultimately, safer community.

In this context, we should be looking at more than relocating the railway.

There are many more instances in which judicious planning could right some wrong turns the community has taken over the years.

Highway 99 is, for example, a poor and circuitous route into Vancouver for Peninsula residents, taking them on a picturesque but unnecessary detour through Delta and Richmond on the way to their objective.

It also effectively cuts the Peninsula Alex in half, creating numerous no-through roads in what have become burgeoning residential areas. Even the new Highway 99 interchange at 16 Avenue does little to alleviate this disconnect.

Surely, given the way that population has evolved in South Surrey, it would make more sense to beefup 176 Street with extra lanes, making it the major connector from the international border to the newly twinned Port Mann Bridge.

While this might entail the expenditure of many more millions of dollars in terms of land acquisition, soil studies, engineering and construction, routing heavy traffic away from more populous areas would be a win for all concerned – and a chance to protect the public in perpetuity.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

RAIL RELOCATION

Similarly, King George Boulevard, while admittedly of some historic significance, has outgrown its usefulness as a major people mover.

It has also been the scene – one might even say the cause – of numerous traffic fatalities over the years. It is sobering to contemplate that even one major accident with one of the many semi-trailer trucks that carry hazardous materials daily on either Highway 99 or King George Boulevard could create a disaster of monumental proportions for Surrey.

Meanwhile congestion on the two-lane Marine Drive through White Rock during the summer months, as an influx of noisy tourists looking for parking combines with the year-round presence of large trucks making deliveries to waterfront restaurants and pubs, does more than create a nuisance for newly arrived hillside residents – it also poses a health and safety hazard that can’t be ignored.

It’s time we gave serious thought to moving these businesses uphill to Uptown White Rock – where they’re likely to get more year-round traffic, anyway – or even beyond, to Grandview Corners or Morgan Crossing.

And while we’re talking about a relocation of the BNSF line, wouldn’t it also make sense to move the old White Rock Station building (currently the White Rock Museum and Archives) which surely has no connection to Browne –a proposed network of walking trails – away from the waterfront, where it impedes views of Semiahmoo Bay? It can also be argued that the White Rock pier, likewise, is a relic of the early 1900s, and ambitions of major port status for the city at that time have little relevance to residents today.

Constantly decaying and costly to maintain, it has clearly outlived its usefulness – as well as creating the potential for pedestrians to fall into the water.

Of course, these ideas are but drops in the bucket.

Think hard, and I’m sure we could come up for more improvements to the community we call home.

This program is a duplication of the responsibility of the police.

Readers respond to a Leader story about efforts to extend AirCare’s mandate.

Barry Evans Camry – with 400,000 kilometres and a faulty EGR sensor – failed the test badly. I put some Sea Foam fuel treatment in the tank and took it for a quick run on the freeway… and the readings were back to historic levels. The “repair” cost me $15 – plus the extra test fee.

So what does that tell you? That in B.C. dirty gas is sold.

If the authorities had called for cleaner gas, then all the cars would have worked more efficiently and produced fewer emissions than what the AirCare program has achieved.

And you know the claim that burning garbage will create pollution? In Switzerland, one of the Worlds cleanest countries, they burn garbage. Seems we need to learn a few things.

Coal facility may flood your water bill IF YOU ARE NOT one of the fortunate Surrey residents to already have a water meter – mandatory for new construction, but optional for existing residences – you may not be aware of the fact that every year you subsidize the water usage of high-volume water consumers, like hothouses or some industrial facilities.

If you have a water meter, you only pay for your own consumption and, consequently, usually pay much less than what the average household does annually.

Should the proposed direct coal transfer facility at Fraser Surrey Docks be approved by Port Metro Vancouver – something that is not a “done deal” – those without water meters will likely pay a little more for their water than they do now.

That facility will be consuming millions of

litres of water annually in the spraying of water on coal laden rail cars waiting to be unloaded at the proposed terminal.

While the new facility would be required quired to install a water meter and thus would uld only pay for their own significant connsumption, Surrey residents without water meters will pay indirectly for the coal facility’s water usage, in more ways than one.

Every year we are subject to regular water restrictions during the summer months.

The proposed facility would have no such restrictions.

Many have probably already experienced periods where residential water pressure is reduced due to

supply-and-demand issues.

Fast-forward to a time when millions more litres of water are siphoned out of the system to spray on coal and then pumped into the Fraser. Needless to say, we will all suffer in multiple ways as a rresult.

If I you are okay with this, then continued co apathy is the way to go. g Otherwise, it’s time more of us get active in the fight against this proposal.

If not for the environment, do it for your own wallet’s sake.

explain how a member of the Citizens’ Advisory Committee (CAC) for Grandview Heights Area #4 can use the CAC as an advertisement to solicit real estate prospects.

The reality is, there are precious few individuals with local knowledge actually allowed to participate, and only then if you are a successful applicant to the process.

Cooperation and constructive input is measured against a majority owners’ group consisting of developers, home builders, local realtors and investors.

Recently, a flyer distributed to homeowners adjacent to Area #4, marketed the services of a realtor.

The flyer read, “Potential developers many want to purchase your property. As a member of the CAC and a realtor specializing in the Grandview Heights area, I have already represented six separate sellers of acreage properties in NCP 4.”

The conflict of interest is obvious. What is more serious is the City of Surrey’s active participation in a process that can only serve the interests of developers.

The CAC has, in my opinion, become little more than a sham, actively managed so as to ensure no local input whatsoever.

As a CAC member to Area #4, I live in South Surrey and represent an adjacent community association. Our concerns are few, however we have been routinely ignored, shuffled from one department to another and told not to worry that our concerns will be addressed at a later date.

I’m sorry, like you, I also know when I’m being played.

Coun. Barinder Rasode, as the designated community liaison for the city, has expressed her concern about CAC and Area #4 in particular.

The only problem is she did so only when confronted repeatedly with objections and then only after council voted to go forward with stage two planning.

We are not opposed to development or densification. We are opposed to being treated like second-class citizens by the city.

This might be a good time to hit the “pause” button.

Region’s largest warm clothing drive under way Realtors Care Blanket Drive runs until Nov. 25 Black Press REALTORS ACROSS the

region are asking the public to round up their warm winter woollies for donation to help those in need.

The 19th-annual Realtors Care Blanket Drive – the longest-running and largest warm clothing and blanket drive in B.C. – started Nov. 18 and will run until Nov. 25.

“This Blanket Drive started many years ago by helping the homeless in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside.

Since then, even though

this event has grown enormously, we’ve always kept the donations local,” said Tri-City realtor and Blanket Drive volunteer P.A. (Doc) Livingston.

“Donors can be sure their donations of blankets and warm clothing will stay in their community and will be given directly to those who need them most by charities in the area.”

This annual event collects enough gently used blankets, sleeping bags, warm clothing and jackets, in addition to new socks and underwear, to help protect about 20,000

vulnerable people in the region from the cold, wet winter.

Since 1995, the Blanket Drive has supported at least 200,000 people.

Of the 35 charities in the region that benefit

from the Realtors Care Blanket Drive, NightShift Street Ministries in North Surrey is amongst those that receive a significant volume. Since 2004, it has received enough donations to

help provide emergency warm clothing to the 100 clients it serves on average every night.

“The support helps us tremendously,” said MaryAnne Connor, NightShift founder and

president. “We hand out the blankets, coats, gloves and new underwear and socks directly to our street family members from our mobile clothing truck. Extra clothing items that aren’t warm

and assault in connection with an attack in June 2010 in Surrey.

He was acquitted on a third charge of unlawful confinement.

The court heard that Voakes forced himself on a young woman, who was then in her late teens, threatened her with a metal pole, hit her repeatedly and called her degrading names.

The victim, who cannot be identified, testified that she was 19 when Voakes dragged her into his bedroom by the hair, calling her a “whore” and a “trick” before demanding she take off her pants. Each time she said no to his demands, she said, he would strike her with his hand.

The woman said he only let her leave when she told him a friend was expecting her and would come looking for her. She said it was her friend who convinced her to call police about the attack. More than 20 photos of bruises and abrasions on various parts of her body were entered as evidence during the trial.

In September 2012, Voakes was the subject of a Surrey RCMP manhunt and police issued a photo of him due to an outstanding warrant on the sex assault and related charges. He was arrested shortly after and has been in custody since.

Voakes has a history of assault. In 2009, he was convicted of assault with a weapon in connection with a Surrey incident, and in 2006, he faced an assault charge in Nanaimo but pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of fear of injury and damage to property.

In addition to the jail term, Voakes’ latest sentence includes a lifetime firearms ban and the submission of a DNA sample. His name will be also be added to the national sex offender registry.

Pot petition in peril Short of signatures as deadline looms

by Jeff Nagel DANA LARSEN isn’t con-

ceding defeat yet, but the head of the Sensible BC campaign to reform marijuana policing is already talking about another petition drive if the one now underway fails.

Canvassers have less than three weeks left before the Dec. 9 deadline to submit the

petition bearing the signatures of 10 per cent of eligible voters in every B.C. riding.

They have around 150,000 signatures counted as of Nov. 19, or about half the number needed and far short of their target of 450,000 to provide a buffer against disqualified signatures.

“In at least half of the ridings we are

Correction Notice

Our recent advertisement in the Surrey Leader on November 15, 2013 contained language that is accurate in Alberta but not accurate in B.C. The ad claims that graduation from the City University of Seattle, Master of Counselling program prepares students for a career as a “Registered Psychologist”.

This is not the case in B.C. The B.C. program prepares graduates for “Registration as a Clinical Counsellor”.

Our apologies for any confusion that this may have caused.

struggling,” Larsen said Tuesday, adding that means one-quarter or less of the signatures have been gathered.

“We have a long way to go.”

Districts with the lowest numbers of signatures include Cariboo, Fort Langley, Langley, Abbotsford and Surrey-Tynehead, Larsen said.

He said the main challenge has been the sheer logistics of collecting so many signatures in every riding in just 90 days.

He noted 50,000 signatures came in over the past week, adding a continued surge in the numbers up to the deadline could still put them “in the ballpark.”

He said Sensible BC could stage a new petition in the months ahead and try again.

Sizzling for Christmas

RIDE WITH WINNERS

Viva Surrey! fundraiser Saturday benefits families in need

Catch the Winners Vacation Bus to Silver Reef and we’ll welcome you with these perks:

by Sheila Reynolds

A LITTLE LATIN American fun will add some sizzle to the Surrey Christmas Bureau’s (SCB) bottom line this weekend.

The non-profit organization is hosting Viva Surrey!, an evening of music, dance and food, to raise much-needed funds as it heads into the holiday season.

Alejandro Ruiz and his family are originally from Guatemala and will play the marimba music of their homeland, while DJ Pachuco sets the mood with the lights and the beat. Alberto Gonzales and Teresa Szefler will show off their salsa moves, and Edwin Martinez and Moviendolo Bien’s band will wrap up the evening with their lively salsa music.

Pachamami Sabor Latino restaurant, owned by a local Bolivian family, will provide empanadas and small traditional sandwiches and soup for sale.

There will also be a silent auction, as well as beer and wine for sale.

The SCB helps lowincome Surrey families (with children 18 and under) with groceries and gifts each Christmas. Donated toys are distributed to children of registered families through a toy depot, and families are also matched with sponsors through the Adopt-a-Family program.

To register for assistance, go to 10636 King George Blvd. with the required documentation (check http:// christmasbureau.com/ registration/). For more information, to adopt a family or donate, call 604-581-9614.

Viva Surrey! takes place Nov. 23, 6:30 p.m. at St. Bernadette’s Hall, 6543 132 St. Admission is $15.

Teresa Szefler and Alberto Gonzales will show off their salsa moves at Viva Surrey! on Nov. 23.

(See the full story, “Coal threat report full of holes, health officers say,” online at www.surrey leader.com).

The health officers also question the findings in multiple areas, from reliance on dated studies to its focus on impacts near the terminal area rather than the BNSF rail corridor.

An alliance of environmental activists and local residents along the railway through White Rock, Surrey and Delta have campaigned for months against the new terminal, citing concerns

ranging from climate change to dust coming off coal trains.

The $15-million Surrey terminal would initially handle four million tonnes per year of U.S.-mined thermal coal – adding one extra coal train per day – but could later expand.

The EIA did not consider the emissions contributing to climate change from the eventual of burning of the U.S.mined thermal coal in Asia.

On the question of increased local air pollution, the report concludes there is no elevated risk either from construction or any phase of operations.

air quality in the area is “low.”

Air quality modelling indicates particulate from coal dust and diesel exhaust will be localized around the terminal, it says, with emissions above regional air quality objectives expected only along the fence line, and concentrations quickly diminish further away.

It says monitoring of actual coal trains has shown dust concentrations would be indistinguishable from normal levels at a distance of 10 metres from the tracks.

The report says the predicted average coal dust and diesel particulate levels from the operation are estimated to be a maximum of 1.4 micrograms per cubic metre at the nearest residential receptor, compared to a WorkSafeBC exposure limit of 400 to 900 micrograms per cubic metre for workers handling coal for hours a day over a lifetime.

“The predicted coal dust levels are approximately 286 to 643 times lower than the occupational limits recently established by WorkSafeBC for coal dust.”

Coal shipments’ particulate contribution would make up just five per cent of the maximum 32 micrograms of particulate from all sources.

It also cites tests conducted in July by Delta for coal dust in Tsawwassen near the existing Westshore Terminals, which already handles six times as much coal as proposed at Fraser Surrey Docks.

They turned up “very low” levels of coal dust and air quality well within regional objectives.

The report notes dust suppression agents will be reapplied to coal train cars by BNSF Rail halfway between the mine and the Surrey terminal and they’ll be added again to barge loads as they depart for Texada Island, where coal would be reloaded to ocean-going ships.

Air quality impacts from barges on the Fraser River would be “low to negligible” and no impact is expected to fisheries. The barges amount to a 1.5 per cent increase in vessel traffic on the river.

Decorating and dazzling your home for the holidays

By Kerry Vital

Holiday decorations are multiplying in the malls and Christmas carols are already playing on the radio. Festive parties are being planned, and it’s time to start considering how you’ll be decorating your home.

If you’re looking for inspiration, the West Coast Christmas

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

Show at Abbotsford’s Tradex will offer plenty of it. As one of Western Canada’s largest holiday season shows, it won’t be hard to find what you’re looking for and maybe learn some new tricks for making your home sparkle.

One of the biggest trends in holiday decor this year is nontraditional colours. “Everyone knows of the classic Christmas colours: red, green, gold,� says Sarah McNeil, designer at Fluff Design & Decor. “This year, we’re going to show you some new ideas.�

Fluff Design & Decor is one of the main stage presenters

at this year’s show. Their show will be called Hot For The Holidays, and will feature tips for decorating for the holidays, as well as New Year’s Eve. “You need to keep it simple,� says McNeil. “Everyone has seen a house where ... it looks overdone. Less is more.�

Senior Designer Mitchell Dyck agrees, saying, “simple and elegant is in for the holidays.� “Everyone is so busy during the holiday season and it’s easy to get overwhelmed or go overboard,� says Leanne Droder of Clayfun Creations. “For years I went crazy decorating for Christmas and it would stress me out if I didn’t get it all done, and it turned into a chore each year instead of something enjoyable. Once I started concentrating on the things that meant the most to me or I truly loved, then decorating became something to look forward to again.�

Marcon’s Regan’s Walk is located in an incredibly walkable neighbourhood, with shopping, dining, schools and transit all within easy walking distance. Inside, you’ll ďŹ nd spacious oorplans and elegant details such as nine-foot ceilings, wide-plank laminate ooring and large windows.

Adding up the perfect little details at Regan’s Walk

By Kerry Vital

Marcon is bringing its signature style to West Coquitlam with Regan’s Walk, a condominium development that offers a lot more than just beautiful homes. “Marcon is always aiming for perfection,� says sales manager Celia Chiu. “You can definitely see the difference in a Marcon home.�

Regan’s Walk showcases plenty of that perfection.

$10,000

“It’s all the little details,� says Chiu. “I’ve never seen any other developer pay so much attention to details.�

Among those little details are a motionsensor light underneath the bathroom vanity that allows you to illuminate the space just enough to be able to see what you’re doing without having to turn on the overhead lights; something especially convenient at night.

Another particularly special detail that Chiu notes are the USB charging stations in most homes that are integrated seamlessly into the kitchen and bedroom. “These kind of things go a long way,� says Chiu. “It really demonstrates the quality of these homes.�

Nine-foot ceilings and huge windows contribute to the open, airy feel of the homes.

Buyers are able to choose between two colour schemes, Grey and Natural, giving you the ability to make your place fit your personal

style just a bit more. Wide-plank laminate flooring throughout the main living areas and modern scrolled level-loop nylon carpeting throughout the bedrooms give you that extra touch of elegance.

Other quality finishings include stainlesssteel appliances in the kitchen, complemented by the modern thermafoil cabinetry, with Shaker uppers in Euro White and eased edge square-profile lowers in either Covaren Crystal or Miltown Oak, and solid quartz countertops.

The bathrooms feature their own solid quartz countertops, along with Euro White Shaker cabinetry, a deep soaker tub and convenient vanities. You’ll also find a steelframed mirror with brushed steel accent light bar and a full-height tile tub and shower surround.

The 71 one-, two- and three-bedroom homes are available in a wide range of

floorplans encompassing approximately 629 to over 1,000 square feet. Generous patios and terraces extend your living space outside, and select ground-level homes include a street entry gate for added convenience. Meanwhile, some of the south-facing third- and fourthfloor homes feature stunning views.

Homeowners will have access to an outdoor amenity space, including a children’s play area.

You’ll find the future Evergreen Line just three minutes away, as well as shopping, dining, education and recreation opportunities within easy walking distance. “This neighbourhood is definitely growing,� says Chiu. “Regan’s Walk is immersed in this emerging little city.�

Buyers will be able to take possession of their new home in mid-2015. Available homes at Regan’s Walk start at $229,900. For more information, visit www.reganswalk.ca, call 604-492-0222 or stop by the sales centre, located at Burquitlam Plaza, 408-522 Clarke Road, Coquitlam, open daily (except Fridays) between noon and 5 p.m.

Decorating for the season doesn’t have to be stressful CONTINUED FROM HOME FRONT

Clayfun Creations sells handmade polymer clay ornaments and figurines.

This will be Droder’s first time attending the show, and she’s looking forward to being part of it.

“I have added new pieces to the collection of ornaments that I will be showcasing this year, as I do every year,” she says. “I always add two new ‘family ornaments’ every year and as well, I have added about 10 new individual ornaments.”

Flowers are always an integral part of any holiday display, whether it’s the classic poinsettia or a contemporary table centrepiece.

“When you’re looking for a poinsettia, make sure it has a nice, deep, rich colour and lots of leaves,” says Tony Hui of 99 Nursery and Florist. “The leaves should be dark green. If the leaves are yellow and the berries fall off, that’s a stressed plant.”

If a traditional table centrepiece will be part of your decor, Hui suggests looking for carnations and chrysanthemums.

“Christmas is a five-week holiday!” he says. “You need a centrepiece that will stand up for awhile. If you buy it two to three weeks before, keep it inside the house during the day and put it outside at night if it’s about freezing.”

This will prolong the life of your centrepiece for about a week to 10 days, he says. However, he cautions that you can’t do that with poinsettia.

“They need to be inside all the time,” Hui says. “Don’t put it near a heat Fluff Design & Decor photo, above and bottom left, NobleWalters photo below, Ninh Hoang Photography for 3H Craftworks Society photo bottom. source or any cold drafts.”

Whether you’re looking for something modern and stylish or want to return to the traditional decor you grew up with, you’ll find 99 Nursery and Florist will be on-hand at the West Coast Christmas Show plenty of inspiration at the West Coast Christmas Show, which will take place Nov. 22 to 24 at the Tradex in Abbotsford. to showcase some of their wares as well as give visitors some tips.

Gayle Oyama of Oyama Projects, which sells handmade crystal ornaments, will also be taking part in the show this year.

“For myself, I select things that have meaning and excellent memories,” she says. “They are things collected on holidays by myself, family and friends, so (they’re) unique and have meaning and memories. Sometimes they are not meant to be Christmas decorations, but do find their way onto the Christmas tree.”

Personal pieces, whether they’re old or new, set your home apart when it comes to decor, and this is never more true than during the holidays when you’re gathering with family and friends.

“I love decorating with nature,” says Suzy Walters of NobleWalters. “When I take walks I leave the house with a bag and collect pine cones of all sizes.

I fill glass bowls with Christmas balls and pine cones, I create wreathes and garlands with pine cones. I have also glued them onto different sized spheres that then look like trees and dusted pine cones with glitter and placed them on the mantel.”

NobleWalters, owned by Walters and Sue Noble, sells Creative Tea Towels that are cut, sewn and silk-screen printed in Vancouver with art from local B.C. artists, including some of their own family members. They will also be showcasing JayDot Creative Cards and Henry’s Zoo, cuddly creatures made by Walters’ mother.

“Both Sue and I are proud of our talented family members!” says Walters.

Charity and thinking of others is an important part of the holiday season, and the 3H Craftworks Society keeps this at top of mind.

“This year we are showcasing our beautiful hand-crafted Christmas products, including traditional advent calendars, ornaments, stockings and housewares,” says executive director Amanda Cairns. “Craftworks is a non-profit that supports adults living with mental illness and/or physical disabilities through craft-therapy. By purchasing our crafts, you’re not only receiving a beautiful piece, you’re also supporting much-needed direct social services for adults who face multiple barriers to employment and community.”

She says that the society always urges homeowners to think of local businesses when they’re looking for holiday decor.

“There are numerous local organizations that make beautiful products to meet your holiday wish lists,” Cairns says. “Support local businesses and create stronger communities.”

The West Coast Christmas Show takes place from Nov. 22 to Nov. 24. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit www.westcoastchristmasshow. com.

Welcome to the driver’s seat

The S3 really is the sweet spot for drivers that want to have extra power but with a very compliant and comfortable ride.

Zack Spencer

Visit the Audi A3 photo gallery at drivewayBC.ca

Audi’s road ahead paved with more than good intentions 2014 Audi A3 Cabriolet/S3 MONACO: Over the next 12 months or so, consumers are going to be treated to an onslaught of new entries into the premium market. Not to worry, the next wave of German sedans and convertibles are of a more affordable nature.

Recently Mercedes Benz introduced their all-new CLA 250 at an eye-popping price of just $34,000 for a sleek and sexy sedan. Next year we will see the introduction of BMW’s new 1-series and 2-Series sedans, coupes and convertibles. Audi has been ahead of the curve as they helped pioneer this entry-level segment with the original, the A3 sportback, sold in Canada for years. The all-new Audi A3 sedan will arrive in March of 2014 and the convertible and more powerful S3 sedan will arrive in the fall of 2014. This week I had a chance to drive both the convertible and S3 in Monte Carlo, a full year ahead of their introduction here.

Audi is one of the fastest growing premium brands and a big part of that is the variety of cars they offer. Unfortunately, we will no longer get the sportback, but the fact we get the rest of the line of A3s is exciting for buyers.

Looks The A3 is built off a shared platform with VW called MQB. This platform was a significant investment for the VW group as it is lighter, bigger and stronger than the last Golf platform and provides a sturdy basis for the A3 Cabrio and S3. The new Cabriolet is 60kg lighter than the outgoing European model, yet the wheelbase is longer and the interior room and trunk more ample. It could be argued that Audi is building some of the most attractive cars these days and these smaller products still convey the same sense of power and solidity that the bigger products portray. The S3 is especially forceful with a 15mm lower stance than the A3 sedan. The air intakes are bigger with more detail; the side mirrors are highlighted with brushed aluminum; and the rear of the car looks more masculine thanks to chunky exhaust tips. The

direct injection turbo with 220hp, matched to Cabriolet on the other hand is a more sophisticated approach thanks to the use of aluminum Audi’s Quattro all-wheel-drive system. A sixaround the front windshield and trim along the speed automatic is confirmed but the duel-clutch doors and rear quarter panel that make the car S-Tronic transmission might be sold as an option look bigger than it is. in this model.

no hydraulics involved, all you do is back up and the snow blade lies back skimming over the surface.

When driving forward the blade automatically re-engages for plowing. When you are finished, lift the blade back over the push frame into the transport position. The cost of this option is $1,644.

K2 is another brand of snowplow designed for the homeowner with acreage.

Designed to work with a front receiver hitch, just like the Snowsport, it simply slides in the receiver and locks in place with a hitch lock. The winch is controlled from inside the cab and will raise or lower the height of

For many people, buying a car is a stressful process. Something worse than going to the dentist or for women, a Brazilian waxing. Ouch.

The image of a damsel lost in a showroom, if it ever actually existed, is no longer something salespeople will see.” – Vijay Jeyapalan.

It can be a lengthy one too. Furthermore, it doesn’t always start by going from dealership to dealership.

In fact, most people have access to the Internet, so they’re doing their research beforehand, prior to even leaving their home and finding themselves on a dealer lot, or with glossy brochures in hand.

They look at various vehicle reviews, flip through newspapers (like the one you’re reading now) and ask other car owner’s opinions.

When they get to the dealership, that’s when it becomes real.

You take the car for a test drive, fall in love with it or walk away from it.

When you find “the one” then comes the time to sign on the dotted line.

But before you seal the deal, it’s time to negotiate, unless you’re happy with the price given.

For women, this can be an even more intimidating process. Getting through the dealer’s door is just the first hurdle they feel they have to overcome.

But for Vijay Jeyapalan, of Unhaggle (www.unhaggle. com), which helps Canadian car buyers get the best price on their new car by getting dealers to compete to offer the lowest price – he’d argue that women are better negotiators than men; an idea that challenges societal norms when it comes to car buying.

Jeyapalan says, “Before stepping into the showroom or test-driving a vehicle, most women are recognized to have done their homework and pre-purchase preparations.

This advantage allows them to properly assess what they want upon arrival and ask the necessary questions to advance the car buying process.”

His point centres on the

“Many are convinced that the forceful tactics men use during negotiations are actually working against them in car buying situations. Men tend to focus on status and act upon superiority, which is a poor way of negotiating.

“While the man says, ‘Take it or leave it,’ the woman might be more collaborative and willing to compromise—thus making them better negotiators. Listening is the key, not aggression and intimidation.”

Driving to cut Big Oil profits They should just call the 2014 Honda Accord Plug-in Hybrid Sedan the Gas Miser.

The car is here for market testing right now but surely, it will see production next year and arrive in dealerships later in the year. And when it does sell your shares in Big Oil. It only sips gas by the spoonful; how else do you account for an easily achievable 4.1 L/100km combined city/highway fuel economy rating?

conditions. You won’t achieve that all at once, unless it’s the dead of night on a flat road, without any other traffic and green lights all the way.

However, it is estimated that if you achieve that 20-plus all-electric ride during a 100 km journey, the power unit will consume electricity/ gasoline at an equivalency of around 1.6 L/100km. In truth, it’s hard to put a real life meaning into that number but it is useful when comparing with other similarly equipped cars.

But when you look at that number and the low gas/ hybrid combined fuel performance, which enables you to journey 800 kilometres on one tank, it does plant the notion in one’s head that plug-in hybrids are the way to go for a while before we reach hydrogen fuel cell nirvana.

Like every other car with green aspirations that I have driven, it coaxed me into a little competition with myself every time out to achieve maximum fuel efficiency. It’s fun to select EV mode and pull away in the morning in silence, operating as a pure electric vehicle. Even in stop and go traffic, it works well, the regenerative braking keeps topping up the battery.

As the speedo creeps up the gas engine kicks in quietly and smoothly. If you select HV mode it operates as a conventional hybrid.

I drove a production version of the Ford Fusion Energi a few months ago, which is similarly equipped and impresses equally with its infrequent need to visit the pump. The plug in Toyota Prius is another contender for the green dollar.

A major difference between Chevrolet’s Camaro and, its rival, the Ford Mustang is the rear axle and suspension setup. Mustang has a rigid rear axle and the Camaro uses a more sophisticated independent link system with coil springs attached to an isolated sub-frame.

Major Midget team takes two from Vancouver Chiefs

Hawks fly among league leaders

by Rick Kupchuk

CLINGING TO third place a week ago, the Valley West Hawks are now clearly a top-three team in the BC Hockey Major Midget League.

Facing off against the fourthplace Vancouver Chiefs in a twogame series last week, the Hawks won twice to turn a three-point lead into a seven-point cushion.

Two games away from the midway point in the season, Valley West is now part of a three-team group that has pulled away from the rest of the league.

Following their 3-2 win Saturday in Langley and 7-5 victory Sunday in Coquitlam, the Hawks are now 12-6-0 (won-lost-tied) and are one point back of the 12-3-1 Vancouver Giants and three behind the Okanagan Rockets.

The Hawks are idle next weekend, then will close out the first half of the schedule with a pair of home games Nov. 30-Dec. 1 against the seventh-place North Island Silvertips.

The Hawks got the jump on the Chiefs last weekend, taking a 3-0 lead 10 minutes into the first game on goals by Justin Wilde of Surrey, White Rock’s Devante Stephens and Langley’s Eric Callegari. Jesse Lansdell of Langley had a pair of assists.

The Chiefs tallied twice in 59 seconds later in the period, then the two rivals played the final 40 minutes without a goal.

Sunday’s rematch featured plenty of offense, but after taking a 2-0 lead less than three minutes into the game, the Hawks never trailed.

Luke Gingras of Langley opened the scoring two minutes into the

The Hawks won 3-2, the first of two victories over the Chiefs. game, then Surrey’s Shakeel Ebrahim added another Valley West goal 16 seconds later.

After the Chiefs got on the

scoreboard, Matt Bradley of Surrey made it 3-1 before the first intermission. Lansdell and Gingras upped the count to 5-1 midway

through the second period, before the Chiefs notched their second of the game.

Vancouver scored three times

in the third period, but Bradley’s second goal of the game and Wilde’s second of the weekend kept Valley West in front.

Panthers reach semifinal in ‘historic’ season Tweedsmuir tops Vancouver College; Crusaders and Hornets eliminated

by Rick Kupchuk WHATEVER HAPPENS over the next two

weekends, the Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers will have had the best season ever by a team from the Cloverdale high school.

The Panthers have advanced to the semifinal round of the BC High School Football Association’s Senior AAA provincial playoffs with a 24-29 victory over the Vancouver College Fighting Irish last Saturday at McLeod Stadium in Langley.

“It was an awesome game in an awesome atmosphere,” said Panthers head coach Kurt Thornton. It was a big loud crowd at McLeod Park. It was historic for our program as this will be our first AAA semifinal appearance at the senior level. Very proud of the boys.”

The Panthers had to come from behind for the win, as Vancouver College took a

29-28 lead with less than four minutes to play. Tweedsmuir’s outstanding running back Jamel Lyles then provided a spark with a long run that put the ball on the Irish five-yard line with a minute to go. Caleb Abraham ran it in from there for the winning points.

Vancouver College still had some time left on the clock when they got the ball back, but Panthers defensive back Brendan Woods picked off a pass with 15 seconds to play.

Lord Tweedsmuir totaled 496 yards of offense, 317 of which came when Lyles was rushing the ball on 25 carries. He also scored touchdowns on runs of 80, 52 and three yards.

Woods led the defense with 16 tackles, with Abraham adding 11 and Dalton Dietrich making seven tackles.

The Panthers will take on the Mt. Douglas Rams of Victoria in the semifinal round

Saturday at 5 p.m. at the university of British Columbia. The Rams have conceded just 27 points in six league games, while scoring a league-best 315. The Panthers boast the second-fewest points allowed with 63 in seven games.

“Mount Douglas is an amazing team with talent across all positions,” said Thornton.

“We need to find a way to control Marcus Davis and deal with their massive offensive and defensive lines.”

Davis, the Rams’ running back, has rushed for 870 yards on just 40 carries, scoring 13 touchdowns in league play.

“This will be our toughest test so far,” continued Thornton. “That being said, Lord Tweedsmuir has a special group of players and we will represent the school with everything we have.”

Two Surrey schools were eliminated from the Senior AA playoffs in the quarterfinal

round.

The Holy Cross Crusaders fell 48-6 to the John Barsby Bulldogs in Nanaimo Saturday, with Anton Cvitkovitch scoring the only Crusaders touchdowns. Lucus Cianpelletti and Johnathon Kongbo were the leaders on defense.

“They were too big and strong for us, they pushed us all over the field,” said Crusaders head coach Ken Buchan. “Patrick Szabo took a beating at quarterback but stood in there and gave a gutsy performance.”

Buchan thanked his players, particularly for those in Grade 12, for a successful season.

“The highlight was taking the 2012 provincial champion South Delta (Sun Devils) down to the wire in a 12-6 game.”

The Frank Hurt Hornets also had their season end with a 25-7 loss to the Mission Roadrunners Friday in Abbotsford.

Eagles split in Prince George Junior A team edges Spruce Kings after lopsided loss

by Nick Greenizan A LATE GOAL from Jonah Renouf

Saturday night in Prince George salvaged what could have turned out to be another rough weekend for the Surrey Eagles.

On Saturday against the Prince George Spruce Kings, Renouf scored what turned out to be the game-winning goal with just 1:08 left in the third period to give the visiting Birds a 2-1 advantage.

The goal – and the victory – allowed Surrey to escape their two-game Prince George road trip with a 1-1 record, and helped erase the memory of Friday night’s 7-1 loss to the Kings.

Surrey sits fourth in the BC Hockey League’s Mainland Division, with a record of 10-15-1-0, but are just one point back of the third-place Coquitlam Express, who’ve lost two straight.

Friday night’s debacle at the

Prince George Coliseum began with the Spruce Kings jumping out to a 2-0 lead by the 13:17 mark of the first period, with both goals coming off the stick of Brogan O’Brien.

O’Brien completed the hat trick in the third period, scoring the team’s seventh goal.

Surrey forward Dalton Heinen tallied for the Eagles near the end of the first period, but the second frame was the visiting team’s undoing.

Prince George scored four times in the period, including a natural hat trick – three straight goals – from Brent Lashuk.

Lashuk’s third goal chased Eagles’ starter Devon Fordyce from the net, and he was replaced by Bo Didur.

Surrey allowed 50 shots on net in the loss, while managing just 29 on Spruce Kings’ goalie Jesse Janks.

The following night, neither team scored in the first period, and the Eagles took their first lead of the weekend when 20-year-old forward Luke Sandler – playing just his second game in Surrey colours after being acquired from the Trail Smoke Eaters last week – found the back of the net.

The 1-0 lead lasted until the third period, when Prince George’s Jake LeBrun tied the game on the power-play. The game stayed knotted at 1-1 until Renouf ’s late-game heroics put the visitors back on top.

This weekend, the Eagles head back out on the road for a Friday tilt with the Merritt Centennials, before returning home Saturday to host the Cents at South Surrey Arena. Saturday’s game is the annual Teddy Bear Toss, in support of the Surrey Christmas Bureau and the Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary.

Barrister & Solicitor

hen Road Rules first wrote about a new type of auto insurance based on personalized rates for customers willing to allow their insurer to monitor their driving using telematic devices, its potential to inspire widespread safer driving with significant discount rewards seemed an unassailable ‘win-win.’ Clearly it was a novel carrot-versus-stick approach with little or no downside.

The quick uptake in Europe and the US, where monitored driving insurance was first offered, has more or less confirmed this. But it has also been criticized as ‘Orwellian’ and restrictive of “motoring freedom.” If such criticism isn’t tongue-in-cheek, it certainly is cheekiness of a whole new order.

The gist of the opposition is a wail from those who don’t want to drive like an extremely cautious “Little Old Lady From Pasadena,” not only about their potential loss of freedom but their fear that ‘her’ 12% discount will be subsidized by 20% hikes in their premiums. And they chide selling out for such a “measly amount.”

Referencing “The Little Old Lady From Pasadena” as the prototype for oppressed adherence to un-fun rules was not what Don Altfeld, Jan Berry and Roger Christian had in mind when they wrote the song based on Johnny Carson’s jokes about this Southern California archetype. Quite the opposite.

They took the archetype—the little old lady with her pretty little flowerbed of white gardenias and rickety old garage housing her

“brand-new, shiny red, super-stock Dodge”— and stood it on its head.

This lady was a mean speedster, who drove fast and hard —“the terror of Colorado Boulevard.” And the song celebrates this spirit in its energizing refrain—“Go granny, go granny, go granny, go!” It was a huge surf music hit for the then well-known duo, Jan and Dean, and its ‘driving’ beat, great melody and humorous lyrics have preserved most of its original charm.

These days there aren’t many new car songs. Road racing is a Criminal Code offence, and not keeping your “foot off the accelerator!” can generate a costly excessive speeding ticket. And it is difficult to call out the “killjoy” aspect of safe driving rules and bypass irony.

It turns out that killjoy-ism has been a life-saver, as Road Rules details in reporting the statistics showing a steadily downward trend in crash fatalities and injuries in most of the major early-motorized countries. The car advertisements that still show attractive young women and curvy roads are more in the nature of camp. Safety also sells to a large component of the car buying market.

The march of history alone contributes to changing cultural norms. Shortly before “Little Old Lady” in 1964, Jan & Dean had a hit with “Dead Man’s Curve,” a song about a teenage street race in Los Angeles ending, tragically, at the nearly 90° right turn on Sunset Boulevard just past North Whittier Drive.

Two years later, Jan (Jan Berry) of Jan and Dean crashed his Corvette into a parked truck near dead man’s curve suffering life-altering head injuries. And so the legacy of this hugely talented musician who died on March 26, 2004 includes the Jan Berry Centre for the Brain Injured, which opened in 1992 to provide arts-based rehabilitation treatment. …by Cedric Hughes, Barrister & Solicitor with regular weekly contributions from Leslie McGuffin, LL.B.

Legal Description:

were outscored 10-7 by the Ridge Meadows Flames Friday night in Maple Ridge, then dropped a 7-3 decision to the Port Moody Panthers Saturday in North Delta.

Now at 5-15-1 (won-lost-tied), the Devils are 10 points behind the fourthplace Grandview Steelers in the Tom Shaw Conference.

The Wolf Pack scored three powerplay goals in their win Wednesday, breaking a 1-1 tie early in the second period and never surrendering the lead the rest of the way. They were up 6-2 early in the third period before Joshua Smith of the Devils found the net twice.

Jackson Surbey and Thomas Cecchi also scored for North Delta, with Nicholas Holowko earning a pair of assists.

Two nights later in Maple Ridge, North Delta held a 30-26 shots on goal advantage and erased deficits of 3-0 and 6-4 to pull even with the Flames early in the second period and again after 40 minutes.

But three goals by the Flames in the first eight minutes of the third frame decided the contest.

Smith had another two goals for North Delta, and added one assist. Surbey also scored twice and had one helper.

Mitchell Biermann with two goals and Colin Catchpole with one completed the scoring, with Levi De Waal collecting three assists.

Saturday back at the Sungod Arena, the Devils fell behind 2-0 after just six minutes of play and trailed 2-1 and 5-2 at the period breaks.

Surbey, Biermann and Joshua Trisevic were the goal scorers for North Delta.

The Devils are on the road tonight (Thursday) against the Mission City Outlaws, then host Grandview Saturday at 7:15 p.m. in the Sungod Arena.

INFORMATION

KJERSEM, Leif Lorents Larsen

VAN DE KAMP DYBLE, Gloria Edna May 26, 1940 - Nov 18, 2013 After a courageous fight with cancer, Gloria passed away peacefully in her home on November the 18th, in the loving arms of her family.

Gloria was born and raised in Vancouver British Columbia.

She was always busy with many hobbies and for many years was a Master Doll Maker.

Together Dick and Gloria enjoyed rock hounding, jewelry making and showing their vintage car. They also loved to travel in their motor home particularly to Arizona for 3 months every winter. They, along with their passengers two cats and a dog, made and met many friends while on their journeys together.

It is with great sadness that Gloria leaves behind her beloved husband Dick of 53 years, her son Rick and his wife Bev, son James and his wife Rosie, daughter Michelle and her partner Oliver. Gloria also leaves behind her brother Bill Symons and his wife Sharon and their children Gordon and Sharlene as well as Dick’s sister Louise McCartney.

Gloria was a beautiful person who warmed the hearts of many who came to know her.

Her family always came first and she was the “glue” that kept everyone together. We will all miss her tremendously.

Dear Mother, You are not forgotten Though on earth you are no more Still in memory you are with us As you always were before.

Forever loved and truly missed.

A Celebration of Her Life will be held Friday November 22nd 2013, at 10:00am at Henderson’s Funeral Home 20786 Fraser Highway Langley BC. In lieu of flowers the family requests memorial donations be made to the BC Cancer Society and Surrey Hospice.

Gerrit (Roy) van de Kamp of Langley, BC died on Monday, November 18. He was born on January 15, 1926 in Wilsum, Overijssel, NL, married Jenny Admiraal and immigrated to Canada in 1953. He is survived by his wife of 60 years Jenny van de Kamp-Admiraal of Langley. Also survived by 5 children: Marlene (Martin) Sanderse, of Brampton, ON; Roy (Arlene) van de Kamp, of Edmonton AB; Charlie (Renée) van de Kamp, of Surrey BC; Harold (Diane) van de Kamp, of Chilliwack BC; Anna-May (Richard) Taekema, of Abbotsford BC; 20 grandchildren and 7 great grandchildren.

A viewing and visitation will be held from 7-8pm on Thursday at Henderson’s Funeral Home 20786 Fraser Hwy, Langley, BC. The funeral service will be held on Friday, November 22, 2013 at 1:00PM in the Langley Canadian Reformed Church, 21804 - 52nd Ave., Langley, BC. Standing reception to follow the service.
