the scholarship raises the rodeo’s profile with Surrey’s youth – and helps recruit a new generation of volunteers.

At 70, the rodeo is one of the largest events of its kind, attracting tens of thousands of visitors over the May long weekend to the Cloverdale Fairgrounds.

It’s an achievement that’s made all the more remarkable by the fact that it’s put on by a core group of one dozen employees and about 300 volunteers, says Claypool, who has just been re-elected president of the Cloverdale Rodeo and Exhibition Association, which oversees the rodeo and the day-to-day operations of the Cloverdale Fairgrounds.

There have been peaks and valleys over the years, from financial problems to bad weather hurting attendance. Even the Canucks on a playoff winning streak, as was the case a few years ago, can wreak havoc with the best-laid plans.

But the organization has been able to get back on an even keel, financially.

Claypool says a lot of the credit goes to general manager Mike MacSorely who took the helm four years ago and his staff.

“One of the nice things about our event, which starts with the Cloverdale bed races Thursday and runs to Monday, is we are great for the local economy for hotel stays, because we are a multi-day event,” Claypool says.

“We believe that we

contributed somewhere between five and six million dollars to the economy every year.

We’re pretty proud.”

Ensuring that longevity is the weekend’s enduring appeal as a family-focused event.

“The country fair has everything from the kiddie rides up to livestock displays through to how to train to be a cowboy or cowgirl at the rec centre. That’s our kids zone,” he said.

Returning favourites in 2016 include midway rides, the West Coast Lumberjack Show, the Agri Zone, Cone Zone, and Envision Kids Zone, along with the 5th annual World Freestyle Round-up, an international skateboard competition that draws professionals from across the globe.

The Rib Fest BBQ Zone is also returning, promising plenty of food options. “That’s been very popular. People can get a rack of the best tasting ribs.”

The Express Clydesdales – a highlight of the 2014 rodeo – are also back this year.

The gentle giants, prized for their rare black and white colour – won over fans in their first appearance in Cloverdale performing at rodeo performances and in the parade.

Admission is $20 for rodeo performances and $10 for entry to the country fair.

Admission to both is free for kids aged 12 and under.

Cloverdale’s Neville Curtis House poised for demolition as city’s heritage commission stands by helpless

in brief

– Cloverdale Reporter

Ready, set, reserve a spot Spring is just around the corner, and for outdoor enthusiasts who are itching to explore the province this summer, it’s time to start thinking about reserving camping spots.

Discover Camping – B.C. Parks’ reservation system – started accepting reservations

EVAN SEAL PHOTOS / BLACK PRESS

The Neville Curtis Home, built in the 1930s, is privately owned, therefore there is little the city can do to save it. Meanwhile, rescue efforts are underway for the Old Anniedale School at 9744 176 Street.

One possibility for rescue is to move the school to a cityowned property, perhaps in Cloverdale.

As to why the same rescue efforts aren’t being made for the Neville Curtis House, Woods said the school is a higher priority.

“They’re all high priorities. I hate to see these buildings go,” Woods said. “But the houses are really tough.”

Local heritage lost Last year, one of Surrey’s oldest heritage buildings, the

yesterday morning (March 15).

Camping sites at our provincial parks can be booked up to three months in advance through the website, discovercamping.ca – and its mobile site, which sees less volume, meaning it might be a surer bet.

More than 158,000 reservations were set up through discovercamping.ca last year, a jump of almost 19 per cent over 2014, according to the BC Environment Ministry. Most of those reservations – 73 per cent – originated in B.C. The site displays availability, layout and amenities at 122 campgrounds, representing more than 5,800 campsites.

About half of all provincial park camping opportunities remain on a first-come, firstserve basis, according to a press release.

Reservations made through a call centre at 1-800-689-9025 are subject to a $5 surcharge.

That line is open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. weekdays and from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekends and holidays. Reserve online 24 hours a day.

Loyal Orange Lodge No. 1471, was torn down, despite heritage protection – and decades of promises that it would be properly restored. Built in 1891, the hall was one of the last surviving institutional buildings from Surrey’s pioneer past.

It was relocated to Surrey Centre Cemetery in 1993 only to languish, eventually rotting into an unwanted eyesore, home to birds and in danger of imminent collapse.

The heritage commission decided to tear down the building rather than restore it.

A glitch in the system was blamed for the loss of another Cloverdale heritage building – the Brown House at 17555 56 Ave., listed on the city’s heritage inventory, was torn down a year ago in January. “Due to a glitch in the system, the heritage status of the Brown House was not noted by staff and thus not referred to the commission for comment,” according to the comission.

Although it had been listed on the Community Heritage Registry in 1998, heritage status also didn’t save the United Church Manse on 6533 168 Street.

The 1905 charmer was demolished when different addresses for each building on the site meant the commission wasn’t aware that the demolition permits had been issued.

By Kevin Diakiw Two Surrey heritage sites are at risk of being lost, despite the best efforts of the commission overseeing Surrey’s history.

At its Jan. 20 meeting, the eight-member Surrey Heritage Advisory Commission addressed two properties.

The first was by way of a request for the demolition of the Neville Curtis House at 5658 182 St. in Cloverdale. The commission opposed granting the permit and asked city staff to impose a 60-day protection order while the property was assessed.

Built in the 1930s, the Neville Curtis House is a oneand-a-half-storey home with jerkin-headed roofs, with a full-width porch supported by square columns. It is one of a number of high-value heritage homes built in Cloverdale during the Great Depression.

Coun. Dave Woods, the commission chair, said last week it’s a privately owned property and that there’s little the city can do to save it.

The developer will be required to pay the city the value of the home, with the money received used to preserve other heritage properties in the city.

The other property before the commission in January was the Old Anniedale School, at 9744 176 St. Anniedale was used until 1954 and is Surrey’s oldest school. The school district has sold the school to a church, which said it was open to working with the city on any rescue efforts.

Woods told the commission the first concern is to ensure the structural integrity of the school, which was built in 1890. The commission is hiring Barry McGinn Engineering and Preservation to conduct an evaluation of the property. The commission has determined its spending limit for that evaluation will be $17,000.

Cupcake sale support

More condos, not rentals

To the editor; We would like to extend a thank you for the support of the following businesses for their participation in the BC SPCA National Cupcake Sale, which our school held Feb. 24 and 25.

These businesses kindly offered to either buy trays of cupcakes for their staff or displayed them for their customers in order to help CLC increase their sales.

Cloverdale Learning Centre raised $778.00 with your support.

Thank you.

Re: “Locals voice concern over The Bristol,” March 2 I think we need something along the lines of Morgan Crossing in South Surrey to up the look of Cloverdale. Definitely not more rentals. We already have co-op housing, city provided low income housing, lots of rentals via suites and apartments. More sellable affordable condos would be better.

A theory about stats Re: “Cloverdale crime relatively low: RCMP,” March 2 It’s more likely people aren’t reporting crimes because they are tired of nothing being done...

Kyle Lowe CloverdaleReporter.com

The results were surprising. We found that a significant minority of respondents in provinces that had premiums believed that their premiums covered the entire cost of the health system. Far from making them more cautious about accessing the system, many of those premium-paying respondents thought “I’m paying for it, so why shouldn’t I go to the hospital/clinic whenever I want.”

As is the case today, proponents of premiums argued that it would make people more sensitive to the costs of the services they used; the converse turned out to be true.

The only serious attempt to let people know about medical costs directly was Alberta’s disastrous (and never repeated) experiment in informing households about all the medical services consumed by the household in the previous year.

Ian Mckinnon Oak Bay

Putting pension over need

Premiums can backfire Re: “Time to take MSP off life support,” (B.C. Views, March 2).

I enjoyed Tom Fletcher’s column on MSP premiums and it brought back to mind some research I conducted when I was at Decima Research in the late ‘80s.

As is true today, there was concern among some that people were over-using medical care, in part because they did not understand its cost. We tested views about costs of the system and looked in particular at differences between provinces that charged premiums and those that did not.

Re: “Open design for new Clayton high school,” Feb. 24 Meanwhile at Earl Marriott Secondary, the 10-year extreme overcrowding continues.

A two-bell system has been in place due to this overcrowding. South Surrey/White Rock’s reward for always voting in the BC Liberals is to be taken for granted.

MLA Gordie Hogg would rather watch his taxpayer funded pension grow than address this critical need. Gordie has known for over a decade the need for a new high school in his constituency.

By Alex Browne The idea of a passenger rail stop in White Rock may have ground to a halt years ago – but the concept is still alive and kicking just across the border for the City of Blaine, Wash.

Blaine, which began pursuing the idea in earnest again last year, is receiving help from economics students at Western Washington University to conduct a feasibility study for an Amtrak stop on the BNSF line through the city.

Participants, led by student Shannon Peterson, have compiled a short online survey to help deter-

mine potential ridership – both North and South of the border – that would be attracted by a passenger stop in Blaine.

And Canadians are being encouraged to participate by logging onto the survey at this link, or on the city website, www.cityofblaine. com/849/A-New-TrainStation-in-Blaine).

Peterson and other students who put together the survey, together with Professor Thomas Roehl, chair of the Department of International Business at WWU, were invited to speak at a major conference of the National Association of Railroad Passengers in Tukwila, Wash.

Preliminary information from the study was to be submitted to the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) at the meeting, Becht said. “All the department heads for passenger rail in the northwest will be in attendance,� he added.

Becht said the feasibility study itself “will go a long way in helping our city get this most important passenger rail stop. “It’s a really good sign – this is great news.�

Supporters of the project have theorized there could be more than a million riders in Canada’s Fraser Valley alone, seeing the ability for this market to easily access the Amtrak system as a huge potential boost for the Blaine economy. “We consider the Lower Mainland are south of the river as a primary market for a Blaine station,� said Lloyd Flem, executive director of the rail advocacy non-profit All Aboard Washington.

He said the WWU study is very welcome “and will definitely provide some hard information. “WSDOT can be very cautious about making any changes or doing anything new. We’re pushing them on this. They’re hesitant to add new stations – it’s a matter of proving a Blaine station can pay its own way.�

‘Huge’ stakes if court upholds asbestos ruling

INSURANCE HOME • LIFE • AUTO • TRAVEL • BUSINESS

7 DAYS A WEEK • 9AM TO 9PM

By Jeff Nagel WorkSafeBC is appealing a B.C. Supreme Court ruling that has thrown into question the workplace regulator’s enforcement powers against asbestos removal contractors that expose employees to danger.

The court last month rejected WorkSafe’s request for a contempt of court finding against Seattle Environmental Consulting Ltd. and its owners, Mike and Shawn Singh, who had received more than 230 workplace violation orders and more than $200,000 in fines dating back to 2007.

Past asbestos handling violations were issued at homes across Metro Vancouver, including Surrey.

Justice George Macintosh dismissed the application, citing concern that a previous WorkSafe order was too broad and the underlying safety regulations too complex and “voluminous.”

Observers say the stakes are high if the appeal fails and leaves bad actors in the free

Unsafe handling of asbestos in the demolition of Lower Mainland homes has been a recurring problem and a top enforcement priority for WorkSafeBC in recent years.

to ignore the laws designed to protect workers.

“If this ruling were allowed to stand then the protection of workers from the number one killer in British Columbia would be null and void,” SFU health sciences professor Tim Takaro.

“The judge is saying that the regulations aren’t clear, he can’t follow them and you

don’t have to. So that’s huge.”

The decision was described as “ludicrous” by BC Insulators Union spokesman Lee Loftus, who himself suffers from workplace asbestos exposure.

“This is the 20th century, this is no longer the 18th century,” said Loftus. “People have lost their lives. Those regulations and those ‘CONTRACTORS’ Page 10

MoneyMatters Don’t be a victim: tips to help you guard against fraud

Every year, thousands of Canadians are victims of fraud and identity theft and with National Fraud Prevention Month in full swing, Kay Gandham, branch manager of the Cloverdale branch of Envision Financial, a division of First West Credit Union, is sharing the importance of recognizing fraud, reporting it and stopping it.

Here are a few simple tips to help guard against fraud.

Protect your PIN We hear about it all the time, but it’s important to always protect your PIN. This applies not only to when you’re using your debit or credit card, or logging in to online accounts, but also to how you store your PIN. Never write your PIN down or share it with anyone.

Phishing for information Beware of phishing emails, usually sent with an urgent request or link asking for personal or financial information. Legitimate businesses or financial institutions will never ask for personal information this way. If you accidentally click on a link that may

have compromised your computer, contact your service provider right away. You should also protect your computer by activating your firewall, securing your Wi-Fi network and having sufficient anti-virus, anti-malware and anti-spyware protection.

Mobile alerts for when you’re on the go Signing up for mobile alerts for online banking can help you stay on top of your account activity. If transactions or activities are occurring on your account like password changes or new bill payees being added, notifications will alert you to potential fraud immediately.

What you throw away can hurt you One of the easiest ways that identity thieves can access your personal information is through the trash, particularly things like old credit card receipts, financial statements or even pre-approved credit card applications. It’s important to shred everything and to completely destroy data before disposing of your old computers, hard drives or mobile devices.

laws are literally written in blood. We don’t make this stuff up.”

He said Seattle Environmental’s owners were “arrogant as hell” after the ruling, telling reporters they don’t expose workers to asbestos.

“Nobody who has 237 orders written against them is doing anything right.”

If the lower court ruling isn’t overturned, Loftus

said, senior governments will be forced to amend their legislation.

Unions and industry groups have already urged the province to impose mandatory licensing for all asbestos removal and testing firms to allow faster action against violators.

Tough enforcement does work when WorkSafeBC brings its full weight to bear, Loftus said.

In 2012, notorious Surrey-area asbestos removal contractor Arthur Moore was sentenced to 60 days in jail for contempt of court after repeated asbestos safety violations across the Lower Mainland.

His workers included teenage girls and recovering addicts wearing improper protective gear as they removed asbestos-laden material from homes that had been declared asbestos-free through forged tests.

Loftus said Moore’s jail term “straightened him out.”

“We had a lot of fun out there and are pretty happy with how we did,” he said.

“We just had the wrong side of the inch a couple of times, ticking guards a few times, and they were making a ton of shots.

They really deserved (the win).”

In the championship contest, Tardi’s Canadian squad defeated the U.S. 10-4.

Movie tax breaks review B.C.’s tax credits to the movie industry are rising rapidly as the low Canadian dollar attracts more productions to the province, and Finance Minister Mike de Jong has ordered a review.

“The sector is having a record-breaking year and that’s all good news for the people involved,” de Jong said.

“But the way the tax credit is structured, we see the amount being paid out increasing exponentially. It’s set to cross the half

billion-dollar mark.”

The review is to take place within the next two months, including consultation with B.C. production companies. B.C. offers a refundable tax credit for one third of labour costs for movies, TV and digital media production.

The current box-office hit Deadpool is the latest of 20th Century Fox’s X-Men series to be filmed in B.C. An earlier movie in the series was lured to Montreal by generous tax incentives, and Ontario extended its tax credits to cover 25 per cent of all spending on a project.

Most of B.C.’s industry is foreign productions, taking advantage of experienced crews, scenic locations and easy access from Hollywood. De Jong said in 2013 that Canadian provinces are “being played” by producers looking to increase tax breaks by threatening to go elsewhere.
