SMH critical care tower opens

Honouring a lost son Mother of Cloverdale beating victim Matthew Skura hosts blood donor clinic in his memory

There are now more beds, expanded neonatal and other special units

by Sheila Reynolds ON THE NIGHT he was killed in a Cloverdale church parking lot,

Black Press

AN OFFICIAL opening was held for the critical care tower at Surrey Memorial Hospital (SMH) on Monday.

While the new emergency department opened last October, the remaining floors of the eight-storey, $512-million hospital redevelopment and expansion project opened this month.

The new tower creates an additional 151 beds for SMH, increasing overall capacity by 30 per cent, to 650 beds.

“Residents of Surrey and other Fraser Health communities now have an improved healthcare environment that is truly patientcentred.” said Dr. David Ostrow, Fraser Health interim president and CEO. See TOWER / Page 5

Matthew Skura had stepped in to help a friend who had been punched in a fight.

And now, five years after the 21-year-old’s death, his mom is hoping a blood donor clinic organized in his honour will allow her son to once again give back to others.

It was May 28, 2009 when Skura was hanging out with his friends.

They’d been drinking and had a run-in with a group of teens who were also inebriated. Words were exchanged and then punches.

One of the teens charged at Skura’s longtime friend, knocking him out. When Skura pulled the attacker away, he was delivered a suckerpunch blow, sending him to the ground. Once there, another teen delivered what would prove to be a fatal kick to Skura’s head.

He died in hospital on May 29. In late 2010, two teens were found guilty of manslaughter in connection with his death.

Though it’s been five years, Skura’s mom Cheryl Vinall still finds that May is the toughest month as grief that she manages all year swells and becomes unbearable as the month goes on.

For several years now, she’s wanted to celebrate her boy, but every time she’d start to put the wheels in motion, she Matthew Skura would be too overwhelmed with grief to continue.

This year, she managed, somehow, to muster the courage to contact Canadian Blood Services.

“Procrastination is a wicked force against grief,” says Vinall.

An all-day donor clinic is planned for June 22 in Langley.

Vinall would love to see the place full of friends, family and anyone else who wants to make a blood donation and honour Matthew.

Skura, in his death, has already given back. His organs were donated, saving five people’s lives and providing sight to a sixth.

“All of those people needed blood to make his gift a success,” Vinall says.

‘This is a life I never wanted to live’ Victims speak out as driver sentenced to five-and-a-half years in jail for two horrific crashes

by Monique Tamminga

A 26-YEAR-OLD Surrey man has been sentenced to five-and-a-half years in jail and a 10-year driving ban for deliberately swerving a stolen Ford F350 truck into oncoming traffic on Highway 10 near 192 Street, causing a horrific six-vehicle crash that left at least two victims with life-altering scars and injuries in 2009.

Jason Brewer had pleaded guilty to two counts of criminal negligence causing bodily harm in New Westminster Supreme Court.

On June 13, Judge Selwyn Romilly sentenced Brewer to four-and-a-half years for the crash, and one year for causing a police pursuit on Dec. 31, 2012 in Langley.

With credit for time already served, he will be out in two-and-a-half years.

He is also facing murder charges in the shooting death of a man in a Langley basement suite on Dec. 31, 2012. His trial for that is set for March 2015.

At the time of the police pursuit he pleaded guilty to, he was prohibited from driving, on probation, and using a vehicle he wasn’t authorized to use.

Crown had asked for four to five years for the crash. His defence lawyer was asking for three.

The court learned that in November, 2009, Brewer had started a new job as a day labourer with a landscaping business. On Nov. 14, the landscaping company owner loaned the company Ford F350 truck to Brewer to get dinner for the crew.

He never did. He admits to getting high all that night.

The next day, at 3:19 p.m., Brewer, high on crack and pot, drove the stolen truck eastbound on Highway 10, west of 192 Street,

JOHN GORDON / BLACK PRESS

Surrey’s Jason Brewer deliberately caused this horrific six-vehicle crash on Highway 10 at 192 Street on Nov. 15, 2009, and has now been sentenced to fiveand-a-half years in prison for his actions. He still faces murder charges for an unrelated incident in Langley on Dec. 31, 2012. driving at what he said was 140 km/h, when he swerved hard into oncoming traffic, hitting six vehicles with 13 occupants.

The injuries the crash caused left at least four people with lifelong problems.

First he hit a Nissan Pathfinder, striking the driver’s side door. He then collided head-on

with a GMC Jimmy. Inside the vehicle was a man and woman. The vehicle was so damaged, the Jaws of Life were used to get the pair out.

Their injuries were life-threatening.

The Ford F350 then became airborne, barrel-rolling over three more vehicles before striking a lamp standard, causing live wires to

come crashing down.

Brewer sustained no injuries in the crash.

He told at least two doctors that he tried to commit suicide that day. At one point, he had pleaded guilty to the crimes but then withdrew his pleas based on the fact that he now denied he was trying to kill himself.

An Appeal Court judge allowed him to withdraw his pleas. In his trial, he ended up pleading guilty.

The couple who were in the Jimmy wrote victim impact statements expressing a life of misery and pain since the crash.

The man, who is now 41, said “at the age of 36, everything I have strived for changed very violently and painfully.”

He is in daily physical pain, had to learn how to walk again, but still can barely do so. He has massive scars, more surgeries ahead and debilitating headaches. He hasn’t been able to cope financially.

“This is a life I NEVER [sic] wanted to live because of a choice made by the accused,” he wrote.

His girlfriend spent six months in hospital, followed by two months living in a homeless shelter.

She suffers from nightmares and increased physical pain.

She sustained burns to much of her body from the engine block, and suffered a lacerated liver and many broken bones. The pain was so excruciating she wished for death.

The others injured in the crash suffered muscle injuries and anxiety and continue to be in pain.

Brewer began drinking from his parent’s alcohol at 12, used cocaine every day since age 17, and later started using crystal meth.

A psychological assessment of Brewer found that he may suffer from being bipolar, has abandonment issues impulse and addiction

Kwantlen broke the rules with $100,000 payment to top officials: Report

Surrey Memorial Hospital’s new critical care tower includes B.C.’s first Ronald McDonald Family Room.

University in violation of disclosure guidelines

LEADER FILE PHOTO

by Dan Ferguson KWANTLEN POLYTECHNIC University broke the rules when it made two pre-employment

Tower: Academic campus From page 1 “Eighty per cent of the tower rooms are single-patient for more privacy and better infection prevention and control. Each room includes a ‘family zone’ with a sofa bed or recliner so families can stay close to their loved ones.”

The tower will also double the capacity of the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for high-risk, underweight babies, and includes B.C.’s first Ronald McDonald Family Room where parents can spend time while remaining steps away from their hospitalized children. A new neonatal and paediatric pharmacy in the NICU is the first of its kind for Canada.

The tower also has expanded stroke and intensive care units, as well as other specialized units. An expanded lab uses new robotics and automated technology.

UBC’s facility of medicine will be located in the tower, allowing Fraser Health to expand SMH’s role as a clinical academic campus. The location boasts a simulation lab that includes life-like mannequins which can be used by doctors, staff and students to practice skills and teamwork.

“Thanks to the support of the community and the province, our staff and physicians now have a state-of-the-art facility to serve the growing needs of patients and families from across the region for many years to come,” said Ron Knight, SMH Foundation board chair.

payments of $50,000 each to president Alan Davis and former vice-president Anne Lavack, a review by the provincial government has concluded.

A report by Assistant Deputy Minister Rob Mingay was released on Tuesday by Finance Minister Mike de Jong, who called the findings “troubling.”

The report found “failures by Kwantlen Polytechnic University (KPU) to disclose as required” and to make a detailed disclosure.

Advanced Education Minister Amrik Virk, a former Langley RCMP inspector until he was elected to the legislature last May, was on the university’s board when the payments were made.

The report does not suggest penalties for Virk or Mike de Jong Amrik Virk the university.

Instead, it calls for an “an annual mandatory one day disclosure and reporting session for the appropriate executives [who deal with salaries] in each organization.”

It also says compensation reporting guidelines “should be rewritten to emphasize that transparency is the overarching intent of the guidelines.”

The opposition New Democrats complained the payments were not included in the reported salaries of the two executives, but were recorded instead as payments to suppliers of goods and services.

The payments were not included in the executive compensation report to government, a report that was also posted online for the public to review.

Genetically engineered dangers to B.C. Striking for THE BC TREE FRUIT industry is facing a critical

threat because Okanagan Specialty Fruits is looking to have its genetically engineered (GE) “Arctic” apple approved for planting in BC. The organic tree fruit growers and others are opposed, as this will end the viability of growing organic apples in the Okanagan.

In 2012 the Union of BC Municipalities (UBCM) passed a resolution asking the BC government to prohibit the planting of any GE plant material.

The Ministry of Agriculture responded that they acknowledged the risks to the environment

and human health.

They also recognized the negative impact GE contamination will have on BC tree fruit exports given that many countries refuse to accept GE foods.

There is extensive evidence to show that genetic engineering negatively impacts the integrity of organic agriculture and has many adverse risks to human health.

This technology permits the patenting of life allowing the concentration of our food supply in a few corporate hands.

The use of antibiotics in the GE process is

contributing to our increasing resistance to antibiotics.

There is ample justification for the concern of planting any GE foodstuffs in B.C. The province promised to explore the issues surrounding GE fruit and the UBCM resolution to prohibit their production in the province.

With the approval of the “Arctic” apple pending, I call on our government to honour this promise.

The benefits of the crisis line I AM WRITING today to tell you

about the Fraser Health Crisis Line.

We are the busiest crisis line in the province and I’m proud to say that our lines (which include 1-800-SUICIDE and 310 Mental Health Support) are answered by volunteer call takers more than 90 per cent of the time.

Our crisis line serves the entire Fraser Health region.

As the demand on our muchneeded services increases in the community, we, in turn, are in constant need of more volunteers in order to ensure the crisis line maintains its 24/7/365 coverage.

Many people report that their crisis line volunteer experience has significantly helped them reach their educational and/or career aspirations, including acceptance into graduate programs.

Volunteers also tell us that they find the crisis line to be a rewarding and fulfilling experience, as they truly are making a difference.

Options Community Services currently operates more than 80 programs and projects, employs approximately 400 people and as many as 300 volunteers.

Because our program is part of a larger agency, we have many things to offer our volunteers, including opportunity for employment.

We need to ask some energy questions RE: WE SHOULD share the LNG with future generations.

LNG projects, Site C dam construction, ALR controversies are all going hand in hand, as if there is a grand finale in the making where all these different pieces of the puzzle are going to fall in the right place and make sense at the end.

But by then it would be too late to do anything about it if the result happens to be unexpectedly disastrous.

We may ask a few questions before it is too late.

First, to produce Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) from our gas resources, we know that it takes a lot of energy – in fact, quite a lot of electrical energy.

In terms of energy units, can the people in charge of these matters disclose this information for public knowledge?

Second, assume we keep the natural gas for ourselves – to share with our future generations, and use it domestically or within the North American market without going through liquefaction and the re-gasification processes as required when the LNG is exported over long distances using marine vessels.

Third, add all the savings in dollar terms – savings from not going through liquefaction and re-gasification of the natural gas, and also add the capital outlay for facilitating marine shipping and other costs related to the export.

Of course, these are virtual savings because we have avoided all those expenditures, but we are richer in the end.

Our pristine land is preserved without submerging it under the Site C dam, we earn money in the North American market for a longer-term revenue source for future genera-

tions, and we avoid shipping disasters in our coastal seas as a bonus.

If we think that we are going to make alternate, renewable energy to replace all our current energy needs, whether for manufacturing industries, automobiles, marine vessels, aircraft, lighting, cooking, heating, cooling, refrigeration, computing and the myriad of other needs, we will be disappointed to learn that it is going to take a long time to achieve that goal at the current pace of advancement.

Our future generations will be better served if we manage to hold on to our non-renewable energy resources longer by not selling it all now to the highest bidder and then moderating the current rate of our own energy consumption.

Truckers need 88 Avenue IN REGARDS TO the letter sent by

Marcelo Sanchez (“Take trucks off city streets,” May 27), I disagree with his opinion in regards to trucks on 88 Avenue.

That route is the quickest between places such as Tilbury Industrial Park and Highway 1.

Sure, there are other routes, but they take longer and the extra costs will be passed onto the consumer.

In regards to the Port Mann Bridge, it would be used more by commercial vehicles if the tolls were reduced by half. At this point trucks are charged $9 each way.

I’m proud to be a truck driver.

Surrey murder victim named Shaunce Poirier was found injured and later died

by Sheila Reynolds POLICE HAVE IDENTIFIED a man found critically

injured in an apartment complex in Whalley Monday afternoon as Surrey resident Shaunce Poirier.

He was discovered at about 2:25 p.m. June 16 in a building near 132 Street and 108 Avenue. He was rushed to hospital but later died.

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) said the 33-year-old’s death was targeted.

Anyone with information about the homicide is asked to call the IHIT tip line at 1-877-551-4448 or to remain anonymous, Crime Stoppers at 1-800-2228477 or solvecrime.ca

Man hospitalized after Surrey home invasion

a Surrey home Sunday, assaulting a resident and stealing some prescription drugs.

Surrey RCMP say police were called at about 10 p.m. June 15 to the 10300-block of 127 Street.

Officers allege two male suspects – described as Caucasian, possibly in their mid-30s with tattoos and dark clothing – forced their way into the home.

Once inside, they assaulted a man before taking off with an undetermined amount of prescription drugs.

The male victim was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. A female resident of the home was uninjured.

Police say based on their early investigation, they believe the incident was targeted.

At that point, police said at the time, three occupants fled on foot. One was apprehended by a dog team after a break-in to a basement suite, a second man was located in green space south of where the vehicle was dumped and a third was caught in a nearby yard.

Last fall, Teixeira was ordered to stand trial on the charges, and the proceedings were set to take place last week, on June 11 and 12.

Khangura said the other two charges – dangerous operation of a motor vehicle and resisting or obstructing a peace officer – will be dealt with during sentencing set for Sept. 11.

SPCA camps for kids Registration on now for popular program Black Press DO YOU know a child

who loves animals? The BC SPCA is holding week-long summer camps which offer animal-themed activities for kids. Camps will be held in the Surrey Education and Adoption Centre at 16748 50 Ave. Camp activities include speciallydesigned games and crafts and visits from guest speakers who work with animals. In addition, every day offers approximately one hour of interactive time with animals.

“All of the activities have underlying educational messages aimed at developing children’s empathy, critical think-

ing skills and understanding of companion, farm and wild animals,” says Paula Neuman, BC SPCA humane education manager.

Direct animal interaction provides excellent opportunities for lessons in empathy, as children are asked to consider the feelings of the animals in that moment, she says.

“One of the main goals of camp is to encourage compassionate behaviours while building confidence. Campers leave feeling inspired and empowered to be leaders in their schools and communities, speaking up for animals, the environment and other people.”

Registration is open to children ages eight to

11, with two weeks dedicated to six- and seven-year-olds. Camp spaces fill up quickly, so

register early.

English Language Training Matters to BC’s economy.

Dear Minister Amrik Virk and Premier Christy Clark,

The BC government has cut English as a Second Language training in post-secondary institutions in British Columbia.

In fact, your Ministry has reduced ESL funding to zero.

Vancouver Community College has been providing English as a Second Language training to skilled citizens and immigrants for more than 40 years. We deliver 46% of all ESL training in BC post-secondary schools, serving more than 3,000 students each term from across Metro Vancouver, including from right here in Surrey. Now, these students have nowhere to go. >P[OV\[ ,UNSPZO SHUN\HNL [YHPUPUN OV^ HYL [OL` Z\WWVZLK [V ÄUK LTWSV`TLU[ HUK JVU[YPI\[L to our economy? The BC government is focused on the BC Jobs Plan. We are too.

Minister Virk and Premier Clark, we’re asking you to listen to the thousands of skilled citizens and immigrants who want to help grow our province’s economy. Restoring funding to ESL training at VCC is a smart investment in BC’s future.

Thank you, The Faculty Association at Vancouver Community College The Students’ Union of Vancouver Community College

CEO leaves Fraser Health as changes loom Nigel Murray cites family reasons for departure

LOSE YOUR READERS,

by Jeff Nagel DR. NIGEL Murray

Starting at $ 98*a month Dr. John F. Blaylock, the leader in reading vision correction. *Subject to FĂŠdĂŠration des caisses Desjardins du QuĂŠbec (â&#x20AC;&#x153;the Federationâ&#x20AC;?) approval. See details in clinic.

DONâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;T WAIT. Get it done once, get it done right.

Book online.

has stepped down as president and CEO of Fraser Health amid an extensive review that is expected to soon bring significant changes to the health region.

Murray served as the top administrator at Fraser for seven years and cited family reasons for returning to New Zealand, where he is in the running for a similar job.

No severance will be paid out because heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s resigning.

Dr. David Ostrow, the former CEO of Vancouver Coastal Health Authority, takes over as interim CEO of Fraser Health.

The announcement

is the latest shake-up at Fraser Health, where the former board chair David Mitchell was removed in April by the provincial government.

The board has since been chaired by Wynne Powell, the longtime board chair of the Provincial Health Services Authority who also chairs B.C. Emergency Services.

Powell said the strategic review committee is finalizing its recommendations for improvements at Fraser.

He wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t reveal details of the findings but suggested they point mainly to smarter use of Fraserâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget allocation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The conclusion they came to is funding is not the major issue,â&#x20AC;?

Dr. Nigel Murray Powell said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just about change, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about helping drive better results and better outcomes.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to find a way to use the facilities in the best manner possible.â&#x20AC;?

community care and long-term care in particular. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s definitely got to be a refocusing of some of the moneys to help the system.â&#x20AC;?

Health Minister Terry Lake announced the review last fall in response to Fraserâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s repeated failure to stay within its budget each year.

Lake at that time said the review could explore a redrawing of health authority boundaries.

Asked if Lower Mainland health authorities will be amalgamated now that Fraser is without a permanent CEO and board chair, Powell said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s heard â&#x20AC;&#x153;that rumourâ&#x20AC;? but has seen nothing to substantiate it.

Fraser and Vancouver Coastal already jointly procure various services and supplies to save money.

Powell also responded to criticism that the detailed findings of the review team wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be released, but will instead be summarized within a new three-year strategic plan for Fraser.

He said the working papers of the committee are too complex for their public release to be helpful. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a matter of them being hidden, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a matter of making sure theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re interpreted correctly,â&#x20AC;? he said.

During Murrayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seven years at Fraser, the health regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget climbed nearly 50 per cent, from $2.1 billion to $3.1 billion.

Even with the increase, local hospitals remain heavily congested and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been steady criticism that Fraser gets a lower per capita share of health funding compared to other regions.

Powell said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s difficult to compare budgets of different health regions, because they perform different tasks.

He said the Vancouver Coastal and Provincial Health Services authorities spend enormous amounts on academic work and research thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;essentialâ&#x20AC;? to improving health care and finding efficiencies.

7-Eleven coming to Cloverdale

Neighbours still opposed as work begins on new store

of Cloverdale’s five corners area is going ahead after all.

Work has begun on the new site, located

at 168 Street and 60 Avenue. The store’s foundation has been put in, and construction is expected

to take about four months, Brad Shannon of BGS management said.

The store will be about 2,800 square feet, with six parking stalls, including one handicapped spot.

There will be parking lot access from 168 Street and from 60 Avenue, where there is already a mini mall with several shops.

The site was previously home to Cheung’s Food Market, which was torn down.

Last fall, nearly 1,000 people signed a petition put forward

by Five Corner Convenience, a family-run shop located on the adjacent corner that’s owned by Ramandeep and Parminder Gill.

The Gills and customers alike were concerned about the impact the 24-hour business would have on the neighbourhood, a quiet enclave in one of Surrey’s oldest settled areas.

The fear that a 7-Eleven would draw

criminal activity such as drug dealing and theft was top of mind for those signing the petition. Others lamented the loss of the area’s unique charm and heritage flavour and worried that the 7-Eleven would be built so close to Surrey Centre Elementary.

The Gills were also concerned about the impact on their business. The couple has run the store for the past nine years, and live on the block.

“I’ll be living right beside them,” Parminder Gill said.

“I hope it’s not too noisy.”

Despite opposition from residents, there was very little the neighbours could do to stop the proposal from going ahead. A development permit was issued last July.

The building permit application for a 7-Eleven was made in late October.

“The neighbours are not very happy,” Gill added.

generally pleased with TransLink’s ambitious expansion plan unveiled last Thursday, but their nemesis said he was “thrilled.”

will be equivalent to a 5.5-cent-a-litre gas tax increase coupled with higher natural gas bills as well.

“We’ll go to the people with that any day of the week,” he said. “Let’s take it to the people and find out if TransLink really deserves more of our money.”

Asked whether – apart from the funding sources – he supports the major projects proposed in the plan, Bateman admitted he had not yet studied the details and said it was too early to say.

He did question the need for more West Coast Express commuter rail service north of the Fraser River when the Evergreen Line will soon extend SkyTrain in that direction as far as Coquitlam.

The plan would boost TransLink’s budget from $1.4 billion to $2.2

billion a year.

“It’s going to be very expensive for taxpayers,” Bateman said.

SFU City Program Director Gordon Price applauded the plan and said Bateman’s determination to kill it without offering an alternative would leave “a secondrate transit system for a second-rate region.”

He said opponents wrongly assume TransLink service will be maintained under the status quo if the plan is defeated, when its declining gas tax take means service cuts would be forced, particularly as the population grows.

Price credited the leadership of Port Coquitlam Mayor and Metro Board Chair Greg Moore – the behind-the-scenes architect of the plan – for forging a “remarkable consensus” within just 12 weeks to meet

Jordan Bateman a deadline set by the province.

“He got all those cats herded and singing the same meow.”

After spending $3.3 billion to build the Port Mann/Highway 1 project and a provincial decision close on a couple billion more to replace the Massey Tunnel, Price said it’s time transit upgrades get at least as high priority as infrastructure critical to economic development and growth.

Employer estimates cost of teacher demands

by Tom Fletcher THE BARGAINING agency for

B.C.’s 60 school districts has put a price tag on what its chief negotiator called “a truckload of benefit provisions” sought by the B.C. Teachers’ Federation.

The cost estimate was released by the B.C. Public School Employers’ Association (BCPSEA) after negotiations broke down Monday and the BCTF proceeded with a full-scale strike that could continue to the end of the school year.

Education Minister Peter Fassbender said negotiations were expected to resume Tuesday.

BCPSEA calculates that with increased class preparation time and other benefits, the latest offer from the BCTF adds up to

a 12.5-per-cent increase in total compensation over the five-year term proposed by the union.

BCPSEA has proposed a seven-per-cent pay increase over six years, plus a $1,200 signing bonus for an agreement ratified by the end of the year.

The BCTF countered last week with a proposed $5,000 bonus, to make up for a year the union has worked under an expired contract.

BCPSEA chief negotiator Peter Cameron said the union has disagreed with some of the calculations, but has not provided its own costing, and after weekend negotiations he could no longer determine which of them are still on the table.

BCPSEA calculates the added costs of union’s proposals for year five as follows:

• Wages and benefits: $211.1 million; • Dropping the bottom two teacher wage classifications: $16.9 million; • Expanded preparation time, elementary grades: $86.2 million; • Expanded preparation time, secondary grades: $5.9 million; • Pregnancy and parental leave: $22.1 million; • Extended health and dental benefits: $11 million; • Substitute teacher pay increase: $8.8 million.

BCPSEA has also calculated the cost of the union’s position on class size and composition at $1.67 billion. That dispute has been the subject of a series of court actions and the B.C. Court of Appeal is expected to rule on it in the fall.

Business groups, including the Surrey and Vancouver boards of trade, picked up that theme.

“Our economy cannot thrive without the efficient, reliable and safe movement of goods and people,” said Vancouver Board of Trade President Iain Black, who applauded the mayors “unprecedented” effort to tackle congestion.

Surrey Board of Trade CEO Anita Huberman called it a “responsible transportation plan” that is “near perfect” for the region.

But Huberman said it’s “unfortunate” the province quickly ruled out the reallocation of existing carbon tax revenue.

“I have a feeling that we have a long road ahead of us around any transportation improvements,” she said.

Perplexing path to TransLink referendum Much rides on premier’s response to mayors’ big plan for transit improvements

by Jeff Nagel LARGE questions

remain unanswered on what happens next with Metro Vancouver mayors’ request for more transit funding.

The referendum question itself hasn’t been settled, nor has the timing – and that assumes the province agrees to the overall concept and new funding sources.

Transportation Minister Todd Stone said the province needs more time to consider the mayors’ proposals.

While road pricing is proposed, it would be several years away and is undefined – officials say there are many possible permutations and it could include everything from tolling all bridges and roads at small rates to a charge on motorists’ annual insurance based on how

far they drive.

How much drivers might pay is unclear.

An appendix to the plan gives a preliminary estimate of “a mobility pricing rate of approximately two cents per kilometre applied to all vehicular traffic in the region” to generate $250 million a year by the end of the 10-year horizon, providing about half the new money needed. The rest would come from either a new regional carbon tax or reallocation of existing carbon tax revenue.

Two cents per kilometre would add up to a $1.40 round trip charge to drive 35 kilometres each way from South Surrey to Coquitlam.

The idea also assumes the province will agree to reform its tolling policy, which has so far led to tolling of only

some bridges, inefficiently distorting traffic patterns.

The mayors’ letter to Stone says the new scheme should ensure “a seamless, balanced and fair system throughout Metro Vancouver.”

Existing bridge tolls might be replaced by the new system of paying to travel anywhere, regardless of whether a body of water is crossed.

And TransLink’s gas tax would also be reduced from 17 cents to 11 cents per litre, the plan suggests.

Road pricing rates could also vary by time of day, to encourage more drivers to shift trips to off-peak times, putting less pressure on major routes at rush hour and improving overall system efficiency. (TransLink calls

Instead of a growing and haphazard set of bridge tolls, it’s suggested Metro Vancouver drivers instead pay road user fees that might be around two cents per kilometre. it “mobility pricing” because it intends to extend similar time-ofday pricing principles to transit fares as well.)

Stone had no answer last Thursday on whether the referendum

– if approved by voters – will give mayors approval to implement road pricing when it’s finally fleshed out, or if residents would get another vote years later on the details.

The biggest question mark is what Premier Christy Clark will say about the entire proposal – she caught the mayors and various transportation ministers off guard in the past

Animals Crossing the Road

THE ROAD RULES www.roadrules.ca

nimals on roadways are in danger and dangerous to other road users. Google “Warning, Animals on the Road” for YouTube examples from around the globe.

Whether in a city crosswalk or on a shoulder of a rural highway, the element of surprise and unpredictability is ever present.

Rural drivers tend to be more aware of the possibility of the presence of animals but are no less at risk. In rural areas, wild animals —deer, moose, and bears—are big, fast and skittish.

Farm animals—horses and cows—can behave similarly.

Cities are full of domesticated ‘pets’ but pets on the loose are these days a relative rarity. In BC’s lower mainland, we know that raccoons, squirrels, possum, skunks, coyotes, and geese are all around but tend to discount the risk they can present. So we are not always ‘on guard’ nor generally well prepared or skillful when confronted with them.

Throughout North America, rural highways through unfenced fields or forested areas usually have, somewhere along the road, yellow warning signs with silhouettes of the animals that may be encountered. It is easy to overlook or discount this signage, but drivers do so at their peril.

Especially when daylight is minimal—from dusk through the night until the dawn. Likewise, city streets through unfenced parklands and empty fields or less densely populated suburban areas with unfenced lawns and boulevards are prime animal crossing zones. It is easy to forget about this possibility.

The combination of staying alert, looking ahead, remembering this unusual but nevertheless ever-present potential hazard, using your daytime running lights and nighttime headlights properly, and driving within the designated speed limit at a speed suitable for the road and weather conditions is the best way to avoid risk or at least minimize it when the situation presents itself.

When an animal darts out completely unexpectedly, however, —the YouTube video collection noted above has many such frightening examples—your instinctive reaction will be to swerve or to brake suddenly then swerve. Swerving can lead to losing control of the vehicle endangering the driver and passengers and other vehicles and road users.

Braking suddenly can lead to a rear end collision with a following vehicle, and sometimes a chain of rear end collisions.

Not swerving or braking suddenly may cause you to injure or maim the animal.

Crashing into a big animal is no different than crashing into any other large stationary object—potentially horrific consequences all around. Cases such as these are typically unavoidable, unintentional road accidents. The crashworthiness of your vehicle, your seatbelt and air bag system, the power of your brakes and of any advance auto-braking systems—all of these vehicle safety features will be put to the test.

Stopping to watch or help protect the animal is also risky. Last week’s Road Rules reported on the ongoing criminal trial of Ms. C in Montreal for her alleged criminal negligence causing death and dangerous driving by stopping in the passing lane of a highway for baby ducks to cross. Ms. C’s lawyer argued this week that her decision to stop was spur of the moment and not a criminal act, there being “no bad intention anywhere on the accused’s part.” …by Cedric Hughes, Barrister & Solicitor with regular weekly contributions from Leslie McGuffin, LL.B.

by suddenly blocking earlier proposals to refinance TransLink.

Twice Clark made the mayors and TransLink wait for audits to ensure the transportation authority was as efficient as possible before new funding tools might be contemplated.

“I’ve been disappointed the last few times,” said Coquitlam Mayor Richard Stewart, but added he’s hopeful now.

Most mayors never wanted a referendum in the first place.

That, too, was imposed by Clark, as a surprise election platform plank for the B.C. Liberals in 2013 that appeared to evolve on the fly.

In the midst of the campaign, former transportation minister Mary Polak was pledging there would be no “none of the above” options in a referendum – voters would have to choose some mechanism to refinance TransLink – only to be overruled by the premier the next day.

Some mayors say they still won’t participate in the referendum no matter what happens.

“I have no intention of supporting the referendum – I think it’s a bad way to make public policy,” Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan said, but added he will work with the majority of mayors to try to deliver their approved vision.

George Heyman, the NDP’s critic for TransLink, also opposes the concept of a referendum but said “it’s now time for Todd Stone to find something he can say yes to.”

Ottawa approves Enbridge pipeline There is widespread opposition in B.C., and the battle is expected to continue in the courts

by Tom Fletcher THE FEDERAL CONSERVATIVE government

has approved Enbridge’s Northern Gateway oil pipeline project, despite widespread opposition in B.C. that includes the provincial government, First Nations, environmental organizations and residents of the intended oil tanker port of Kitimat.

Natural Resources Minister Greg Rickford signalled the government’s approval in a low-key statement Tuesday that endorsed the 209 conditions imposed by a federal review. Rickford noted that the proponent still needs to consult with aboriginal communities and secure provincial permits.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper has emphasized it is in the national interest to

open a new pipeline route to the Pacific Ocean to carry Alberta oil sands bitumen and break the Canadian oil industry’s dependence on U.S. markets.

But a continuing battle over the pipeline plan is expected in the courts, and potentially on the land, where civil disobedience has already been threatened.

Opposition demands to reject the project dominated question period in the House of Commons Tuesday. NDP leader Natural Resources Thomas Mulcair called the Minister Greg review panel process “a sham,” and Skeena-Bulkley Valley NDP Rickford

Opponents gear up for pipeline fight

MP Nathan Cullen warned that opposition in B.C. may upset plans to develop liquefied natural gas exports in the province.

The project doesn’t yet meet Premier Christy Clark’s five conditions for new heavy oil pipelines, which include world leading marine and land spill protections, resolution of aboriginal concerns and a fair share of benefits for B.C. B.C. Environment Minister Mary Polak said the decision means the project meets the first of five conditions required by the province, a successful federal review.

“We recognize the benefits that the Northern Gateway project may bring, but they will not be at the expense of our environment,” Polak said.

The decision by the Harper cabinet follows last December’s ruling by a federal review panel that the $6.8-billion project should proceed, subject to 209 conditions.

That followed Enbridge’s earlier pledges to improve the project’s safety with thicker steel and other measures along the 1,177-kilometre route.

The twin pipelines would carry 525,000 barrels per day of diluted bitumen from the oil sands west to Kitimat and send condensate to act as a thinning agent east to Alberta.

given federal approval Tuesday.

A group of B.C. aboriginal communities issued a statement Tuesday vowing to go to court to protect their aboriginal title and rights on the land affected by the twin pipeline and tanker port for diluted bitumen on Douglas Channel.

Aboriginal opponents in the North Coast region include the Haida, Gitgaat, Heiltsuk and Haisla First Nations, as well as communities in the B.C. Interior.

Haisla Chief Councillor Ellis Ross, whose community is at the end of Douglas Channel and who is involved in a natural gas export project, said it is too late for more consultations.

“Every mistake they’ve made we actually pointed out to them and said ‘this is not

A protest at the B.C. legislature in 2013. following our case law principles, you’re making a mistake’,” Ross said Tuesday. “But they went ahead and did it. It is going to be court.”

Northern Gateway project leader Janet Holder said she will continue to work to build on the 26 equity agreements the company has reached with aboriginal communities

along the proposed pipeline route.

Kitimat Mayor Joanne Monaghan said her council has made its opposition clear, after an April community vote that came down opposed to the project.

“I think most of the councillors are of the opinion that they really don’t want to see bitumen going down the

channel,” Monaghan said. “They would rather have it refined and have a product that’s refined going down the channel.”

B.C. NDP leader John Horgan said he wants resource development that creates jobs in B.C., particularly for aboriginal communities. Horgan said the B.C. Liberal government gave up its opportunity to oppose Northern Gateway.

B.C. Environment Minister Mary Polak rejected that claim, saying the province gave a clear “no” in its final submission to the federal review panel.

Discussions with Alberta, Enbridge and oil producers continue to see if B.C.’s conditions for land and ocean protection as well as a “fair share” of benefits for B.C. can be met, Polak said.

NDP calls for ban on flavoured tobacco products

by Grant Granger

this and B.C. should too,” said Darcy.

Darcy said 30,000 young people start smoking every year in B.C. While the percentage of youths smoking has dropped dramatically in recent decades, it has remained steady at 14.5 per cent over the last few years, she said. One reason, she argues, is because of flavoured tobacco products.

She cited a Canadian Cancer Society survey showing that 53 per cent of the province’s youth who smoked in the last 30 days used flavoured tobacco products.

“There is an aggressive marketing strategy underway to target youth with these products,” said Darcy.

Some of the smaller products have none of the blatant warnings required on cigarette cases because they are sold individually.

THE BC NDP is calling on the pro-

vincial government to ban flavoured tobacco products.

“There’s absolutely no reason to wait for the federal government to act. It’s a very real problem and the province needs to act now,” said NDP health critic and New Westminster MLA Judy Darcy, speaking at a press conference last week.

According to the Canadian Cancer Society, the introduction of fruit and candy-flavoured cigarillos has led to a significant increase in youth using tobacco products.

Alberta has banned the products although it has yet to be implemented. Legislation to ban them has also been introduced in Manitoba and Ontario.

“Other provinces have moved on

Don’t wait for Clova’s final curtain Cinema’s expected goodbye may be cut short, owner says

by Jennifer Lang

THERE ARE Cloverdale couples whose first date was at the Clova Cinema, some maybe sharing a first kiss in its seats.

Those who have a special place in their hearts for the beloved singlescreen theatre are now being urged to come and say goodbye sooner than later to avoid disappointment.

The iconic as theatre’s building was bought out this yearr by a local church that has different plans for it.

Despite the outpouring of emotion from patrons in March when they learned the Clova would shut permanently later this summer, attendance has dropped dramatically.

“It’s been dismal,” operator Craig Burghardt told Black Press. “The support has not been there for the past month and a half.”

Burghardt and his

staff have watched crowds dwindle in recent weeks, leaving the theatre to “teeter on going bankrupt before we close.”

He’s now cautioning fans not to wait for an official “final”’ screen-

ing, but rather patronize the family-run theatre now.

“Don’t be sad that we are closing, enjoy us while we are still here,” said Burghardt, who has been operating C the Clova along with a tight knit crew known tightly as the “Clovamily” s since 1996.

“We want to leave you with happy memories of the final days of the Clova but we c can’t do that if you ar aren’t here.”

P Patrons are also invite to take part invited sp in special events such as the recent concerts starring Beatles tribute band, The Fab Fourever.

There’s even talk of hosting an ABBA tribute act soon.

Along with offering an affordable night’s entertainment for families by keeping

ticket prices low (and giving discounts to those bringing their own drink cups and popcorn bowls), the Clova is rented out to non-profits for charity screenings and local fundraisers – an important source of financial support that will leave a noticeable absence.

The Clova has helped schools, charities and

A digital projector would have ushered in a new era for the Clova, which opened in 1947, entertaining successive generations of movie fans.

But Burghardt wasn’t able to secure a long-term lease with the building’s previous owner, No. 9 Holdings.

Rather than borrow approximately $60,000 for a digital projection system, the Clova Cinema had mounted an inventive campaign to raise money to cover the expense.

That plan fell through when the building was purchased in March by Crossridge Church, which offered to let the Clova continue showing movies – rent free – until Burghardt could no longer obtain new releases on 35mm film.

As a condition of sale, Crossridge Church agreed to make repairs and work out a Heritage Revitalization Agreement with the City of Surrey, which wants the Clova preserved as a heritage building.

The Rakhi project is a crime reduction strategy initiative designed to raise awareness about domestic abuse and violence against women.

Rakhi is an occasion in India which honours the relationship between brothers and sisters, with a sister tying a bracelet on her brother’s arm as a symbol of love and respect between them and to show they will stand together against domestic violence.

The braided purple bracelets will be sold for $5 each from June 17 to Aug. 10 at select Save-on-Foods locations, Fruiticana, Surrey RCMP, Kwantlen Polytechnic University bookstores, KEYS: Housing and Health solutions and the Surrey Women’s Centre, with all proceeds going to the City of Surrey’s Coalition Against Domestic Abuse (SCADA).

Canadians choose to enjoy the outdoors by the bay

RECENTLY, on a beautiful sunny morning, I cycled the Brunswick Point dyke, at the mouth of the Fraser.

There had been reports of rare white pelicans there on the local birdwatching listserve, so I thought I would try my luck.

According to a newly published survey (http://bit.ly/1peCkVy), I am among 89 per cent of Canadian adults who regularly choose naturebased recreational activities.

Whether it is picnicking and relaxing (71 per cent), reading or viewing nature media (66 per cent), or puttering in the garden (51 per cent), the 2012 Canadian Nature Survey found that nature-based activities are important for the majority of our country’s adult population.

Canada is a tremendous country for outdoor recreation and we can choose among myriad possibilities, whether gardening, camping or going for a hike, or more adventurous pursuits such as rock-climbing, skiing or caving.

A majority of people pursue so-called nonconsumptive pursuits, such as photography, birdwatching or simply taking a walk with the dog, while some engage in consumptive hunting, trapping, and fishing, or motorized recreation.

Even those who cannot get into the wild often watch nature videos or go to an aquarium.

Those like me who enjoy watching, feeding or photographing birds, spent an average 133 days a year on their pastime, more than for any other single activity.

Yes, us birders are obsessive.

It is not all selfish pleasure. Thirteen per cent of Canadian adults undertook volunteer conservation activities, with rural and aboriginal Canadians and those engaged in nature professions being particularly active.

The vast majority of our nature-loving population is well aware of the terms: “biodiversity,” “ecological services,” and “species at risk,” and understands their meaning.

Survey says 89% of adults look to nature for recreational activities

Anne Murray Consequently, it is no surprise that 45 per cent of respondents had adjusted their lifestyle to reduce their ecological footprint.

Canadians were also generous with their money: $874 million was contributed by individuals to nature and conservation groups.

Nature-related activities are a strong driver of the economy – Canadians spent an estimated $40.4 billion

in the survey year, the majority of it on non-motorized, nonconsumptive pursuits.

Nature also plays a role in where Canadians live.

In B.C., 68 per cent of residents chose locations due to their access to nature, a result municipalities should note.

My cycle ride at Brunswick Point produced views of the farmland, the sound of singing marsh wrens and yellowthroats, a spotted sandpiper guarding its nest and an eastern kingbird hawking flies, but the pelicans had left with the outgoing tide, headed northwards.

Anne Murray is an independent writer, naturalist and author of two books on the natural his-

According to a new survey, 89 per cent of Canadian adults regularly choose naturebased recreational activities, such as fishing.

DID YOU KNOW: Iron deficiency is the leading nutrient deficiency worldwide, and the #1 cause of fatigue in females who menstruate.

Fatigue, rapid heartbeat, cold hands and feet, brittle hair and nails, shortness of breath, dizziness, pale skin, leg cramps, insomnia: it can be difficult to pinpoint the cause of these non-specific symptoms, so make sure iron deficiency is not one of the suspects. Did you know it takes roughly 3 months for all of your iron-deficient blood cells to die off and be replaced by new ones? It is usually not enough to take an iron supplement for just a few weeks, but nobody wants to suffer the side effects of traditional iron pills for longer than that. Try Floradix Formula, a natural, vegetarian, plant-based source of iron from Salus.

Even if you haven’t tipped into true “iron deficiency”, it’s a great way to supplement your iron stores and ensure that low iron is not holding you back from getting in shape for the summer. Floradix is easy on the stomach and safe for children over the age of 2. Call or visit with one of our knowledgeable pharmacists to see if Floradix Formula Liquid Iron and Vitamins is right for you.

The special effects of see through plants ONE OF THE MISSING elements in many of today’s

Green scene

gardens is the “see through”’ effect, which simply means using plants that flower in a very open and loose form to accent other plants around them.

“See through” plants allow you to enjoy their beauty, while at the same time enable you to see the combined effect of their companions.

These so-called “see throughs” are often so light and wispy that the slightest breeze provides gentle movement, adding another delight to the garden.

A well-known garden photographer brought this to my attention at Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania recently when he was specifically shooting through these plants to capture some pretty interesting effects.

Some of the most fascinating “see throughs” are the sanguisorbas. The bottle brush-like flowers on this varied plant family are quite delightful.

From tiny threecentimetre pink flowers Brian Minter to huge seven-centimetre rosy pink plumes, these are must-have garden plants. I’m surprised at how many folks have never seen or heard of them, but when they first spot them, it’s an instant love affair.

Growing from 48 to 72 centimetres and spreading to approximately 40 centimetres, sanquisorbas bloom, depending upon the variety, from June through July.

Their foliage is small and quite elegant, adding texture to both perennial beds and containers, and they will tolerate full, hot sun or partial shade.

I like using them to centre blue perennial geraniums or short leucanthemums for a delightful combination effect.

My favourite varieties are S. Tanna and Pink Tanna (Zone 4).

One plant that’s still a sleeper in many gardens is perovskias (Zone 5).

This silver-leafed jewel flowers from June through to frost, loves the hot sun and combines well with so many plants, especially ornamental grasses.

Perovskias Blue Spire has been the standard See PLANTS / Page 36

Whalley opens doors to the area’s history Festival part of city-wide ‘tourism’ event June 21 Black Press

EVER WONDER why the northwest corner of Surrey became known as Whalley?

You can find out at the Whalley’s Corner Community Festival, which takes place June 21 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the intersection of Grosvenor Road and Whalley Boulevard.

It’s an opportunity to see the city in a whole new light.

Start your “tourist in your city” day – the

Whalley’s Home Station, photographed in the 1930s.

Surrey Doors Open event – at Whalley’s

Corner and see the city in a whole new light.

The name Whalley’s Corner dates back to 1920s when Arthur Whalley opened a gas station in the area.

This corner gas station became a hub of activity and the area began to thrive, spreading the name “Whalley” with it.

The event will celebrate the area’s history, and will showcase current local businesses and vendors.

There will be ice cream, live entertainment and an antique car show.

Surrey’s thirdannual Open Doors event on June 21 features 48 sites that are open to the public and lets residents be tourists in their own city.

Plants: Can highlight containers, garden beds From page 35 variety for years, even chosen as the Perennial Plant of the Year, but the introduction of P. Little Spire is a blessing.

Growing only 50 centimetres high, it is both an accent and a focal point.

Its tiny blue flowers, accented by silver foliage, make it a standout with shorter evergreen grasses like the darker carex varieties and with all the pennisetums that start blooming in July.

It’s also a natural with rudbeckias, heleniums, phlox and late-blooming blue salvias.

It’s a superb plant that can create an instant effect even if planted now. Autumn mums would also benefit from this great companion.

Verbena bonariensis (Zone 7) has always been one of my favourite old-time tall “see throughs” (1.2–1.5 metres).

On Long Island, I spotted this verbena mass planted with ornamental grasses and what

English lavender an effect.

We used to plant it along our streams in the gardens and it created that “wow” look.

It’s most at home in perennial borders as a backdrop and with tall miscanthus grasses behind the combined “see through” result is delightful.

It’s also fun to use with tall white phlox, like David.

They are heat-and drought-tolerant and bloom continually till frost. Although not that hardy, they self seed for a return visit each year.

I consider English lavender a great lower “see through” plant. It’s a match made in heaven for low-growing pink roses, late-blooming pink dahlias and lowgrowing leucanthemum, like the award winning Snow Lady (Zone 5).

There is a strong resurgence in the use of lavenders, especially the hardy L. angustifolia Hidcote (Zone 5), which grows to 38 centimetres and its slightly shorter counterpart L. angustifolia Munstead, which grows to 32 centimetres.

There are so many possibilities when it come to “see through” plants, but it is usually the tall-growing varieties that have the true “see through” capabilities.

Late-blooming verbascums, tall veronicas and gypsophila are all great candidates.

The tallest kid on the “see through” block is Thalictrum rochebrunianum.

Their tiny lavenderpink flowers with soft yellow stamens bloom in profusion from July through September.

Growing to two metres or more, they are used often in perennial borders to provide a unique “see through” quality that adds distance.

They also combine well with early-blooming miscanthus grasses.

Thalictrums add a tall vertical element where it’s often missing, and they provide good stature to any perennial garden.

I hope you will not only try some of these plants, but also use them in ways that can highlight your containers and garden beds.

Taking back the ‘grove’ High-crime area is in the process of being reclaimed by creative Newton residents

by Kevin Diakiw

O

nce known as one of Surrey’s hot spots for drug activity and property crime, Newton’s “grove” is transforming – thanks to a community that’s decided to take it back from criminals.

The treed space beside the Newton Wave Pool, in the 13700-block of 72 Avenue, has been a favourite spot for drug dealers for years.

After hockey mom Julie Paskall was killed there last December, local residents have demanded their park back. (Josef Jomo Gopaul has since been charged in connection to her murder).

The group is acting on advice from a U.S. design guru Jason Roberts, who recommended creating an “outdoor room” where people can linger.

David Dalley, who lives just a couple of blocks away from the grove, took up the challenge.

He and a few others started “Friends of the Grove,” a grassroots group which has transformed the troubled spot into a place where people can go and feel safe.

The strategy began in April, when the group set up several activities, including a checker board and music. People were encouraged to wander in and take part.

Dalley and crew have been switching it up every couple of days, trying to create a public-friendly environment.

There are now outdoor lounge chairs there for people to sit if they like.

Dalley says the area is changing already.

The chairs and checker boards have been left there overnight for weeks, and they remain as they were.

Months ago, he says, you wouldn’t have seen the same level of respect for those things.

The next big event will be on June 21, to coincide with the Newton Community Festival.

And on June 26, the public is encouraged to come out with colourful costumes to dress up the cement posts in the area as people. That event will take place after 9:30 a.m. at the Newton Bus Loop, at 137 Street and 72 Avenue.

Friends of the Grove’s Facebook page can be found at: www.facebook.com/FriendsOfTheGrove

Anne Beaver (left), her son Austin, 4, Madison Tuck and Chris Gacsi attached messages to ‘The Poet Tree’ in The Grove recently.

Friends of the Grove, a group of locals and community activist are working to bring a crimeridden area by the Newton Recreation Centre – and where Julie Paskall was killed last December – a feeling of safety through artistic and cultural ventures among the trees.

Posturing, passion and pie Young People’s Opera Society presents The Tinker of Tivoli

by Sheila Reynolds BRAVERY, deception,

love, music – and plenty of pie. What more could anyone want from a musical production?

Did we mention pie?

The Tinker of Tivoli comes to the Surrey stage next week, following the story of Beppe (played by Brad Dewar), the tinker himself. It seems he’s grown quite weary of fixing

everyone’s household items for free, as there is little respect given to him in return.

One day, while angrily defending his – you guessed it – pies from flies, he swats a small swarm. And it dawns on him: why not tell the townspeople he has killed seven in one blow? They don’t need to know he’s talking about insects.

The villagers are duly impressed and

treat him like the hero he had hoped. Except for the town cynic, Luigi (played by Joseph Thomas Messner), who also happens to be Beppe’s arch nemesis.

As Beppe becomes more popular, Luigi becomes increasingly determined to plan his demise.

In the meantime, however, Luigi’s son Ernesto (Chantelle Anderson) and Beppe’s daughter Nannina

(Taylor Harrison) have fallen for one another.

The road to love is bumpy, what with gossiping friends Isabella (Rebecca Teskey), Angelina (Amaris Gutierrez Sandoval) and Rosina (Jessica Hebbel) trying to help and the town pie-maker Madalena (Lisa Teskey), serving up an oversized helping of wisdom and pastries to solve everyone’s problems.

The production,

presented by the Young People’s Opera Society of B.C. (YPOSBC) and the Arts Council of Surrey was created by the same group – the Youth Opera of New Jersey – that did Pandora’s Box, which the YPOSBC produced in 2011.

It features wellknown music of Rossini (of Barber of Seville fame) with 18 songs, such as When You Have a Flair for Baking, Tru-

PRESENTS

est Love is Like a Sweet, Sweet Pie, and My Dearest Father.

When Luigi finally challenges the now-popular Beppe to a contest of skill, Beppe loses the battle and the deception is revealed.

The disappointment is short-lived, however, as Nannina and Ernesto finally learn to communicate and become engaged.

Everyone celebrates with singing and … pie.

The Tinker of Tivoli runs June 25-29 at 7:30 p.m. with 2 p.m. matinees Saturday and Sunday. (There is also a preview night June 24).

Tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for seniors and children under 10. To reserve, or DENIS SEGUIN PHOTO for further Brad Dewar plays the title role information, in the musical production of The phone 604Tinker of Tivoli at the Newton 594-2400.

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

Photos submitted by FortisBC, above and top right, and Melissa Tolsma, right

Barbecuing with natural gas is extremely convenient, as it uses the home’s natural gas supply and homeowners are able to grill with several different temperatures.

Reno Me! with FortisBC contest winner Melissa Tolsma is looking forward to the installation of her new natural gas fire pit as part of her natural gas renovation.

Reno Me! with FortisBC winner Melissa Tolsma starts her outdoor natural gas renovation

By Kerry Vital

Nanaimo’s Melissa Tolsma describes herself as a “reluctant renovator.” If something isn’t broken, there’s no need to fix it, and duct tape can fix anything that is broken.

However, when she saw the opportunity to enter last year’s Reno Me! with FortisBC contest and win $10,000 towards a renovation with natural gas, she decided that her outdoor space could use a bit of sprucing up.

After winning the contest, her renovation adventure began. Tolsma notes that she’s always cold, so having the warmth of natural gas was tops on her priority list.

Currently, one of the most popular options

that use natural gas is a fire pit, which will be an integral part of Tolsma’s renovation and something she is particularly looking forward to.

“My eight-year-old daughter is very excited about having a year-round s’mores facility right in the backyard!” Tolsma says.

According to FortisBC, outdoor natural gas fireplaces and fire pits allow you to spend more time outdoors, even in the cooler months. They’re also more convenient for homeowners, who won’t have to spend time chopping wood or dealing with uncontrolled smoke and fumes or spitting embers. Like all natural gas appliances, they provide instant heat and are available in a variety of styles.

Natural gas.

Good for outdoor living.

Entertain all year long with a natural gas barbecue. Add a patio heater or fire pit for cosy warmth and ambience. Transform your outdoor living space with natural gas.

FortisBC uses the FortisBC name and logo under license from Fortis Inc. (14-106.5 04/2014)

Tolsma’s cast concrete fire pit, from Solus Decor, is expected to arrive soon, and contractor Brad Fraser of Jonker Custom Building has been hard at work.

“Brad is working on two cedar benches to be installed next to the fire pit,” Tolsma says.

“I’ve had fun spending way too much time on Houzz, gathering ideas and images that have really helped to shape the project.”

The fire pit is just the beginning of Tolsma’s ongoing outdoor space renovation.

“I’m going to have my licensed gas contractor extend the gas line to accommodate a gas barbecue and heater in the future,” says Tolsma.

FortisBC notes that a natural gas barbecue

can be extremely convenient for homeowners looking for fuel on demand, as you’ll never have to deal with running out of propane or charcoal. It also allows you to cook with different temperatures at the same time and control the heat more easily.

Natural gas barbecues use flexible hoses that connect to the home’s natural gas supply and have a built-in shutoff. This quickconnect feature makes it simpler to attach as well. Another benefit is that cooking outdoors will keep your home cooler during the warm summer months.

Natural gas possibilities inspire renovators CONTINUED PAGE 43 FRONT CONTINUEDFROM FROM HOME

In addition to using natural gas for outdoor living, Tolsma is including a new deck in her outdoor space renovation.

“The deck is built with locally harvested cedar, and has a lovely, earthy West Coast feel to it,” she says. “Brad even built a custom raised garden box with some of the leftover lumber. I’ve been busy with some landscaping and gardening work, so it’s all starting to come together.”

Another option for using natural gas outdoors is a hot tub, with its consistent, fast heat and automatic safety shut-off controls for added peace of mind. Plus, avid swimmers will be glad that natural gas can also heat swimming pools.

The possibilities for natural gas use outside continues to inspire renovators.

Depending on where you live, natural gas patio heaters keep you warm outdoors, even in the fall and winter. They use radiant heat to warm objects around them, according to FortisBC, and are connected to your home’s natural gas supply. You can also find natural gas patio lamps that can be used to light walkways, patios and other outdoor entertaining spaces. There are models available that provide bright steady light or ambient natural glow, so you’re easily able to create the mood you want for entertaining.

Natural gas is a convenient choice for more than just spending time outside.

The inside of Tolsma’s home is heated with natural gas as well.

“With a small house like mine, I love that my gas furnace can heat the house to a comfortable temperature within a few minutes,” says Tolsma. “I don’t have a fireplace inside, so I’m looking forward to having a natural gas fire feature on my new deck.”

Whether you’re upgrading your heating system or extending natural gas to the backyard, you’ll need the services of a licensed natural gas contractor. Find someone qualified in your neighbourhood at fortisbc.com/findacontractor.

The cost to operate natural gas appliances is very affordable.

Natural gas rates continue to cost less than it would cost to run with electricity. Don’t believe it? FortisBC has an online energy calculator that will help you compare the cost of fuel sources and their energy efficiency, demonstrating that natural gas is an affordable choice for homeowners. Find it at fortisbc.com/energycalculator.

Tolsma is blogging throughout her renovation. Find her blog on your local Black Press newspaper’s website, or at www.bclocalnews. com/business/realestate.

“I’m looking forward to having a deck launch party next month, and I will be inviting all my awesome family, friends, co-workers and neighbors who helped me win,” Tolsma says. “There will be burgers and s’mores galore!”

You too could enjoy natural gas in your backyard. Enter FortisBC’s Endless Summer Nights Contest for your chance to win a $10,000 natural gas dream patio. But hurry, the contest closes June 30, 2014.

As part of Tolsma’s win, she received a rendering of her outdoor space from Sarah Gallop Design Inc. After hiring Jonker Custom Building, she worked with contractor Brad Fraser to make the plans fit her space and her lifestyle.

And once again, some of the best international and club teams in the world are slated to take part in the 10-day tournament, which runs from July 11-21.

But in addition to the on-field action, a handful of youth clinics for local players is also on tap.

Youth softball clinics, for boys and girls aged eight to 16, are scheduled for July 15-18 at Sunnyside Park.

Participants will get the opportunity to learn from some of the best players in the game, as members of Team Canada, Japan, Mexico and the United States are set to help out.

As well as on-field instruction, the national team players will share their stories of dedication and perseverance with the young ballplayers.

Clinics will run from 9-11:30 a.m. daily, and participants will receive a T-shirt as well as one complimentary child/

teen admission to a Canadian Open game on July 16.

For players younger than eight-years-old or who are new to the sport, a pair of introduction-to-softball clinics are also scheduled for Saturday, July 12 (9 a.m.-12:30 p.m.) and July 19 (1-4:30 p.m.). Participants will spend the day with Softball BC instructors learning the basics of the game and will also have the opportunity to join the Canadian Open’s parade of athletes on July 16.

The Canadian Open games begin July 11 with the Showcase (U16) Gold and Select division games at both Softball City and Cloverdale Athletic Park, and the Futures (U18) tourney begins July 14. The women’s elite bracket – which features top North American club teams – runs July 12-20 while the international division begins July 15 and wraps up July 21.

Surrey major-midget players Davis Koch, a forward, and Matt Barberis, a defenceman, were among more than 100 players from across the country invited to the weeklong camp, which is set for July 29.

The Hawks’ duo are two of just eight players invited from B.C. From the development camp, a roster will eventually take shape and the Canadian squad will play at the 2014 World Under-17 Hockey Challenge, which is set for Oct. 31-Nov. 8 in a yet-to-bedetermined city.

Barberis and Koch will be in good company at next month’s camp, as all 96 skaters have been listed or drafted by Western

McLaughlin Messenger and Spencer Bromly added second period tallies, allowing the Islanders to take a 7-5 advantage into the final period.

The Adanacs dominated the last frame, and before five minutes had elapsed had tallied four times to take the lead. McLaughlin completed his hat trick to pull Delta to within a goal at 7-6, but Coquitlam responded with three more goals in a three-minute span before Nass and Reece Callie netted the last two Islanders goals of the game.

New Westminster struck for nine first period goals in a onesided win Saturday in Sungod. McLaughlin scored six times for Delta, and now leads the Junior A league with 35 goals. Messenger, Chase Fraser, Cory Takahara and Jonathan Phillips added one each for the home side.

The lone game for the Islanders this weekend is Saturday night in the Sungod Arena when the 5-9-1 Nanaimo Islanders are the visitors.

In addition to raising money for fish, food and plants, the group of special needs and leadership students who held the event now have a fund to replace anything in the pond that gets devoured.

“The children wanted to do something special for the seniors as they knew how upset they were when the heron ate all the fish,” said Eithne Harrison, principal of Woodland Park Elementary. “The students have formed a really nice relationship with the seniors and the groundskeeper.”

S STUDENTS SET OUT ON SUMMER ADVENTURES, HERE IS A LIST OF ACTIVITIES FOR PARENTS TO SHARE AND ENJOY WITH THEIR CHILDREN. These fun activities cover all subjects and grades; there truly is something for everyone.

And, if you have your own summer adventurers at home, this list can rescue your kids from the boredom and blahs of rainy summer days. This year, do more than amuse and entertain your kids and hope for the best for your students, keep their minds working all summer long!

It’s the time of year when nervous parents take on the challenge of keeping their children physically busy and mentally active during long summer days. To help those efforts, Education World offers ideas that not only reinforce skills taught during the year, but also to entertain students through the summer months.

FILL IN SUMMER’S SPECIAL DAYS and events on the Education World Coloring Calendar for June, July, or August. Or help children use pencils, drawing paper, and rulers to create, decorate, and fill in their own summer calendars.

TEACH KIDS TO COOK with the step-by-

Boston Pizza Newton raise over $38,000

Fun Ideas to Help Keep Kids’ Brains Active in Summer

step lessons and recipes at Cooking With Kids.

The site also includes measurement reminders, safety tips, and suggestions for involving kids in the cooking process. Or check out your local library or book store for one of the recommended Heritage Cooking for Kids: Taste History books and try out recipes from Colonial days, the Civil War, and the Lewis and Clark expedition.

MAKE HOMEMADE BUBBLE SOLUTION and experiment with such unique BubbleBlowing Tools as strings, milk containers, and garbage can lids.

READ ALOUD The Paper Crane by Molly Bang. Then introduce the art of paper folding by printing and following the instructions for How to Make an Origami Crane.

GO ON A LIGHT WALK, an outing designed to teach kids the properties of light and facts about the sun. Bob Miller of the Exploratorium explains it all. Can’t take an online tour?

Do your own image walk by printing the directions and template found at the site.

CREATE MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS from materials found around the house. Need help?

Enchanted Learning provides instructions for such Musical Instruments as a rattle, box guitar, maraca, and rain stick.

READ ALOUD a selection from Candlelight Storybooks or your own favorite myths or fairy tales. Discuss the stories with your child. Then invite your child to choose a favorite story, and together make a diorama depicting a pivotal moment in the tale.

CATCH A FIREFLY and then go to The Firefly Files online, or read a book, such as Fireflies by Sally M. Walker, to help your child learn more about them. Then invite your child to complete the Education World Firefly Facts work sheet online.

PRINT A GRID OF DOTS from Connect the Dots by Math Cats and invite your child to make an original tessellation.

STAPLE TOGETHER PIECES OF PLAIN PAPER OR USE A NOTEBOOK TO HELP YOUR CHILD MAKE A CARTOON FLIP BOOK. Kids draw a sequence of cartoons and simulate motion as they “flip” through the pages. (Note that the first image in the series should be at the bottom of the stack of pages, and the illustrations should progress from bottom to top.) How to Draw Cartoons or The Complete Cartooning Course by Steve Edgell, Brad Brooks, and Tim Pilcher, offer simple instructions for drawing cartoon figures.

LEARN ABOUT LOCAL PARKS from the comfort of your own home, and encourage your child to become a Web Ranger.

START A ROCK COLLECTION. Collecting Rocks, several Web Sites online offer advice to help the novice collector gather, identify, and store neat rock specimens. The Audubon Society Pocket Guide Familiar Rocks and Minerals North America will help children identify and label the rocks and minerals they find.

PLAN WITH YOUR CHILD a family activity day. Decide how much money to spend, and help your child research events and activities in your area and choose an affordable

activity the whole family can enjoy.

Remind your child to be sure to allow enough time for the activity, and to remember to include food in the day’s plan. Don’t forget to bring a camera and take lots of pictures.

Your child can mount and label each photo and create a family scrapbook of your special day. You might provide the questions below to help guide your child’s thoughts as they plan this special day.

Describe the event or activity your family will attend. Will everyone in the family enjoy this activity? Why do you think so? What do you need to arrange ahead of time? Will you need to purchase tickets? Pack a lunch?

Make reservations? What supplies or materials will you need?

What costs will be involved?

TAKE A VIRTUAL CAMPUS TOUR of colleges and universities your high school student might be considering.

Tour the schools’ grounds, look at maps, view videos and photos, and request information about those institutions of higher learning. If you don’t have Internet access at home, take your tour at the local library.

HAVE YOUR CHILD BUILD A PAPER AIRPLANE. Then ask your child to design an original paper airplane and diagram the steps for constructing it, so another family member can recreate it!

START A FAMILY OR NEIGHBORHOOD BOOK CLUB. Even a parent and child can form a book club, by reading the same book and chatting about it. For larger groups, check out some online hints for starting a book club.

STUDY INSECTS. Hang a white sheet outside at night and shine a light on it. Observe the variety of insects it draws. To identify some of those nighttime visitors, see The Orders and Selected Families of Insects or read the National Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Insects and Spiders.

KIDS RARELY HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO DESIGN THEIR OWN ROOMS to best suit their individual needs. Invite your child to devote some thought to ways to improve his or her living space. Explore with your child Kids’ Room Decorating Ideas to find ways your child might individualize his or her room without spending a great deal of money. Then have the child draw the layout of their “new” room. The following questions might guide kids as they consider the possibilities:

Other than sleeping, what do you do most often in your room? Play games? Work on a computer? Listen to music? Do homework?

Entertain guests? What furniture or other items do you use most often? What do you use least often? What kind of storage do you need?

A dresser? A bookcase? A clothes hamper? A desk? What do you like best about your room?

What do you like least? How do you want to change your room?

HELP YOUR CHILD MAKE A SET OF TANGRAMS with instructions found at the Math Forum’s Constructing Your Own Set of Tangrams. Trace the designs on a piece of paper, mix up the tangram pieces, and use them to create jigsaw puzzles.

CREATE A THING OF BEAUTY from a lump of coal! With a few common ingredients, you and your child can grow a “Magic Crystal Garden” with pieces of coal. Instructions for the crystal garden can be found at Joey Green’s Mad Scientist Experiments.

SOAR INTO SPACE (the space in your bedroom, kitchen, or dining room) by constructing Science Bob’s Balloon Rocket. This simple science experiment using a balloon, string, straw, and tape, illustrates the use of air pressure to produce movement.

DYE REAL FLOWERS. Turn plain white carnations or fresh-picked Queen Anne’s Lace into dramatic colored creations by Coloring Flowers. Using just food coloring and water, flowers can be changed from white to any tint, usually in just one day. Colors deepen

over time, and kids will enjoy modifying the experiment to see what unique combinations they can make.

CREATE PAPER BEADS. Put old wallpaper and magazine scraps to good use by using them to create Recycled Paper Beads. This easy activity requires very few common materials and keeps kids very busy on rainy days. When they’re finished, children can string their beads and give them as gifts or wear them for fun.

“There haven’t been too many of those lately,” he joked, pressing harder on the metal, perhaps to make a point.

As Infiniti Director of Performance, Vettel is truly playing a role in the development of future road products, rather than merely offering his name as a celebrity endorsement. He talked enthusiastically about the new compact, performance-oriented Q30, which should see the light late next year in Europe and a little later in Canada.

The 328-horsepower 3.7-litre V6 Q50S we were riding in also benefitted from a little of his input. He’s clearly looking forward to Infiniti giving the go-ahead to the Q50 Eau Rouge concept, which features the Nissan GT-R’s growling 560-horsepower twin-turbo V6.

Another corner loomed and I leaned into the door, as he barely slowed from the rapid pace we had zipped along the straight.

“Your cornering has improved since last year,” I offered cheekily.

“Thank you, I think I’ve got the apexes about right,” he grinned. Hours earlier, it’s doubtful he had even heard of the tricky track, nevermind driven it.

Harkening back to his references to happy endings, I reminded him that after driving with me last year he had enjoyed nothing but success.

“That’s right . . . it’s all down to you,” he said with what I believed was a thoroughly genuine smile of appreciation.

The end was nigh. Time flies when you are having fun: our hot lap and friendly chat took less than four minutes.

Last Sunday, he enjoyed only his second podium finish of the year taking third place at the Montreal Grand Prix.

You’re welcome, Seb. Same time next year, in the Eau Rouge?

As Infiniti’s Director of Performance, Vettel is truly playing a role in the development of future road products.

Question of the Week Four-time F1 champ Sebastian Vettel got behind the wheel of a kart when he was just three-and-a-half years old and was racing at age eight. Should we encourage teens to follow that example, as a way of learning about vehicle speed and control before getting their first license at 16?

Zoom-Zoom goes flash and boom ‘‘

There is so much goodness dialled into this little car that it rewards the driver and passenger hourafter-hour.

’’

2014 Mazda Rally

Zack Spencer

With a flash of lightning beside our car, my co-pilot Alexandra Straub let out a screech as loud as the accompanying crack from the massive flash.

Pouring rain in our tiny car made the very first day of the 2014 Mazda rally one to remember. The Mazda MX-5 (Miata) is a car most would associate with sunny, summer top-down driving but this little machine was determined to show what it was made of. The howling wind, torrential rain and debris-covered roads were

all taken in stride as we carved our way through the Tennessee mountains on our way to the Brasstown Valley Resort in neighboring Georgia.

Over the next three days, we experienced the MX-5 on some of the most dramatic and scenic roads this continent has to offer, and there was money on the line, big money.

Last year was the inaugural Mazda Rally, which Alexandra and I won, taking home $10,000 in charity money for Kidsport. As last year’s champions, we had extra pressure this year to repeat, something we later found

Zack Spencer in the 2014 Mazda Rally out would be much tougher than we had imagined.

If you ever take a drive through the south east of the United States, do yourself a favour and divert away from the interstate highway system and experience driving nirvana, traversing the Blue Ridge, Unico and Smokey Mountain ranges. The lush National and State parks along with small towns and twisting river valleys is something to experience.

This is a destination for drivers too, especially the “Tail of the Dragon”, a section of highway 129, just inside the North Carolina

border that has 318 turns over an 18km stretch. This is a favourite of motorcycle riders but it is open to anyone wanting to experience back-to-back corners ranging from very tight to wide, sweeping turns. Our run up this road was wide open thanks to steady rain, with a few dozen motorcyclists out for a tour and several photographers taking pictures, then selling them to tourist, the same way you can buy a picture of your rollercoaster ride at the PNE! Paved roads are the place the MX-5 shines, wet or dry.

It never felt like the car was

out of control, even on the fastest and most aggressive corners. There is so much goodness dialled into this little car that it rewards the driver and passenger hour-after-hour. With a front engine, rear drive setup and perfect weight distribution, the MX-5 has been one of my all-time favourite cars because of its simplicity.

The small, light, thrifty dimensions matched to a raspy 2.0L 4-cylinder and 6-speed manual makes for a fantastic power-to-weight distribution, meaning the 160hp engine might not sound like much on paper but, in practice, it makes the

most of every situation.

One thing Mazda’s event planners has us do was drive and collect information for each days challenges. All of these were kept secret until the beginning of each drive, including the roads we might travel.

A surprise was that some sections were unpaved.

Taking Mazda’s brand new MX-5 through forest back-roads at speed, meant rocks flying, branches felled from the previous night’s storm kicking up, sliding sideways through corners and pounding over rough and rutted gravel.

At the end, the MX-5

showed no signs of wear; it just powered on to the next challenge, which was another surprise, the Atlanta Motorsports Park for an autocross challenge. To say we went from one extreme to the other is an understatement. An hour earlier I was sliding across gravel roads, followed by sliding around a racetrack trying to avoid pylons to dial in my best lap time.

The focus of Driveway’s recent four-part collector car restoration series was unveiled this week at 360 Fabrication in Abbotsford earlier this week.

The 1967 Ford Mustang T5, owned by public relations executive Laura Ballance, will take pride of place first at an exclusive preview for the second annual Vancouver Collector Car Show & Auction. Then it will go on public display at this weekend’s event at the PNE Fairgrounds, where more than 600 vintage vehicles will be on display and nearly 150 classic rides will go on Maynard’s auction block.

Some other show highlights: a bright ‘A&W orange’ 1966 Plymouth Satellite will be auctioned off with no fees, no reserve, and 100 percent of the proceeds going to the MS Society of Canada. The duPont Registry is bringing eight ultra-rare vehicles from across the Lower Mainland for the first ever duPont Series – including J.D. Rockefeller’s Lincoln

Raising cash for charity and turning heads along the way ‘‘ To some, Supercars are a gaudy form of transportation. An arrogant display of wealth. To others, works of art.

Alexandra Straub

’’

The Supercar: It’s something anyone of any age can appreciate.

The design. The engineering. The way the engine and exhaust purrs – or roars – when you push on the throttle.

They are the culmination of the workmanship of talented individuals who dedicate their lives to crafting components that are then distributed globally. Now put more than 100 of these machines together (111 to be exact) and the appreciation factor goes up 110-fold. To some, Supercars are a gaudy form transportation. An arrogant display of wealth. To others, works of art.

But to the group who participated in the second annual Diamond Rally, it’s more than just a showcase of imported engineering or customization. It’s about a great cause. It’s for charity.

I’m not going out on a limb when I say that car enthusiasts love to see amazing cars, regardless of context.

What’s more, it’s even cooler when a group of them travel together up one of the most incredible drives in the world: the Sea-toSky Highway. What started off last year with 42 cars quickly grew to three digits.

Each entering car chose a charity to raise funds for.

As the day was ramping up, the Brian Jessel BMW dealership in Vancouver was overrun with vehicles ranging from a 1957 Ford Thunderbird (it was quite the car back in the day, and still is) to the Lamborghini Aventador. Along with Nissan GT-Rs, Maseratis, Porsches, Ferraris, and more.

Even the brand new BMW i8, which had yet to be driven on Canadian soil, broke

ground and was the lead car in the day’s event.

The route would take us along the spectacular Seato-Sky highway, with a stop in Squamish and then the main rendezvous in Whistler. Fellow motorists were pleasantly surprised when they spotted the exotics driving beside them on the world famous road.

My ride? – The humble, all new, BMW M4. I say humble because I had nowhere near as much horsepower (this only generates 425) as some, or most, of my fellow drivers.

But what I did have was the “wow” factor. Clad in an extremely eye-catching Austin Yellow Metallic coat, she was quite the sight to see.

What made it even more special? It’s a 6-speed manual.

Unsuspecting admirers didn’t catch me overhearing their conversations including, “Dude, this one’s a stick. Awesome.”

Yes, some people actually talk like that.

Though it may not have garnered nearly as much attention as some of my fellow rallyers, it still brought smiles to people’s faces.

That’s what I think the event is all about.

So did the drive route.

Craig Stowe, Founder of the Diamond Rally and Canada’s own Luxury & Supercar Weekend mentions, “There is a new breed of supercar owners who are rallying together to individually raise awareness and money for the charity of their choice.”

He also comments that Vancouver is supercar crazy, and that there are more luxury and supercars per capita then any other city in North America .

“There is nothing like 111 spectacular cars rallying up the 99 highway to bring awareness to many worthy charities.

Drives-U-Crazy Rolling through stop signs It’s amazing how many people roll through stop signs, as though they weren’t there. Considering how many people do that it’s more amazing how many slow to a stop or crawl on neighbourhood streets when they approach an intersection where they face no such sign yet the crossroads to their right and left do! – Over courtesy?
