Residents take growth battle into own hands Amy Reid

top building in Panorama – there’s simply no space for more kids in schools. That’s the message two community groups hope the city embraces. The Panorama Neighbourhood Association (PNA) and South Newton Community group (SNC) have joined forces to voice their opposition to a proposed 287-unit development on a 2.5-acre lot at the southeast corner of 152nd Avenue and Panorama Drive. They’re asking the developer to go back to the drawing board and come back with something that doesn’t impact local schools. More than 100 people attended

an open house for the Panorama project Monday night at the Tong Louie YMCA. The lineup was out the door. “Tonight I hope the developer hears us loud and clearly and goes back to the drawing table or proposes to resell the property,” said Cindy Dalglish, with PNA and SNC. “I’d like this to stall out for a while until the province gives us funding for schools,” she added. While parking and traffic issues are also of concern, Dalglish said they don’t hold a candle to the school overcrowding woes. Dalglish first took up the cause when there was talk of downsizing the French Immersion program at Woodward Hill Elementary to build seats for English students due

Cindy Dalglish: “I hope the developer hears us loud and clearly.” (Photo: AMY REID) to capacity issues. “From there it snowballed,” she said, as parents involved realized this was just the tip of the iceberg. “I feel bad for the developer because it’s kind of poor timing,” remarked Dalglish. “If (the developer) came in two years from now when schools are announced you’d barely get a boo out of us. It’s because there’s literally nowhere for their kids to go, let alone our kids,” she said. Steve Henderson, vice president of the PNA, said it’s “negligent of the city to allow these things to go through knowing full well schools are already at capacity and that there’s nothing in the pipeline to address that.” Planned expansions are only to address current capacity issues,

noted Henderson, not any new students that may arrive. “The city, we think, needs to start showing a little bit more of a leadership role in planning the neighbourhoods as opposed to rubber stamping everything developers put in front of them,” said Henderson. “We’d like to see a little bit more outside-the-box thinking and more creative development, especially with this prime piece of property.” Dalglish and Henderson praised Surrey school trustee Laurae McNally’s recent call for a development freeze in areas experiencing school overcrowding. “I think the city has a leadership role here as opposed to just pointing to the province,” said Henderson.

The proposed Redekop Homes development, at 5750 Panorama Dr., includes 181 townhomes (originally 198), 106 apartment suites, a commercial plaza and a public park. To move ahead, the developer needs the city to approve an Official Community Plan amendment from commercial to multiple residential, a Neighbourhood Community Plan amendment from institutional to commercial, density increases and more. At a council meeting on March 7, the city referred the application back to staff so the developer could address concerns surrounding density and the potential negative impact to local schools, as well as a lack of indoor amenity space. see DEVELOPER › page 6

Sciatica, Stenosis and Herniated Discs May Be to Blame for Pain and Numbness in Legs LOCAL CLINIC OFFERS FREE CONSULTATION TO THOSE SUFFERING FROM BACK AND NECK PAIN Did you know that over 30 million North Americans suffer from back and neck pain every day? Whether spine and back problems result from an auto accident, injury, or have crept up over time, sciatica and herniated discs are often misunderstood and improperly treated. They can result in pain and numbness anywhere in the body.

Whiplash Neck Pain

This pain affects everything that you do, from work to play, and ultimately your quality of life. You might not even be able to sleep at night without pain. If you suffer from debilitating pain, we are here to tell you that there is hope. We have the technology and decades of experience to help you find relief from disc problems and sciatica. The Spinal Decompression Institute focuses on treating all disc and spine-related conditions with advanced non-surgical treatments. We are so confident that we can help you find relief that we are offering a complimentary consultation to the first 25 callers.

Spinal Decompression Allows Back Pain to Heal... Without Drugs or Surgery Decompression relieves pressure that builds up on the discs and nerves. The task of relieving pain comes about as a result of drawing the leaking gel of a herniated disc back into place. Decompression achieves this by creating negative pressure within the disc, referred to as negative intradiscal pressure. This creates essentially a vacuum to draw the bulging and herniated disc material back into the disc space and relieves pressure. This process of non-surgical decompression allows the body to heal itself naturally and is only one of many treatment options available at the Spinal Decompression Institute.

Class IV Therapeutic Laser The Spinal Decompression Institute employs a variety of high-tech solutions along with decades of experience to help alleviate your particular pain. Along with spinal decompression, our Class IV Therapeutic Laser Therapy is an outpatient, non-surgical procedure which is often used in sports medicine to accelerate the healing process. This pain-free, non-surgical approach works by stimulating the body’s natural healing processes, providing pain relief and reducing injury and damage. This leading-edge technology has shown results in returning patients to work, sports and competitive activities, as well as everyday life. Laser therapy is just one of the treatment options that Spinal Decompression Institute offers as a non-invasive option for those facing surgery.

his week’s Hidden Hero has got real sole. Eight-year-old Rebecca Stewart of North Delta has collected 256 pairs of shoes, with help from friends, family and the congregation of Crossroads United Church, for Mama Orphans Children’s Home in Kenya, Africa. Her church sponsors the orphanage, located in Busia, a small town near Uganda’s border. Monica Oduor (aka “Mama”) started it out of her own home there in 1996 when she took in six young boys who were living on the streets after their parents died from AIDS. Today, the orphanage houses more than 100 orphans, from newborns to age 18. After hearing about their plight through her church, Rebecca decided she wanted to help the orphans and started a “shoe campaign” to collect new and “gently used” shoes for them. “I heard that they can’t go to school without shoes,” she explained. “That would probably be hard because you

(Photo: TOM ZYTARUK) might step on a lot of sharp things.” Most of the shoes were donated by friends and church members. Rebecca’s campaign ended Sunday, with her sitting on top of a small mountain of shoes piled up inside the church. “Mom (Heather) and dad are very proud, and so is her big sister Mary,” said her dad, Scott Stewart. “We are very proud of Rebecca and want to share our story of how an eight-year-old girl in North Delta, through having a simple idea, can inspire others to donate such a necessity to others on the other side of the world. “This shows anyone can make a difference to help those

in need – whether down the street or across the globe. “We thought we would share our story so it could inspire other children and adults to be aware that anyone can make a difference to make the world a better place,” Scott said. “Rebecca is our ‘Hidden Hero.’” Her sister Mary, 12, said she helped “a little bit but she (Rebecca) mostly does it. I think she’s helping a lot of people because it’s really hard to get the education you need and if people can’t go to school just because they don’t have shoes to wear, then that’s really hard.” When Rebecca’s not busy trying to save the world, she attends Grade 3.

“At school I like to do gym a lot and when I’m outside I like to play grounders on the playground,” she said. “Someone’s it, and they close their eyes but they can peek a little. They’re on the playground and they try to tag people.” When she’s not doing gymnastics, or playing grounders, she said, she enjoys pursuing her shoe project “because it helps a lot of kids that don’t have shoes or that don’t have a lot of things.”

Host sites are needed for the bee gardens, as well as volunteers to help plant and maintain them; visit Honeybeecentre.com/beegardens for details, or call 604-575-BEES (2337). “Creating 100 colonies over the next five years doesn’t make

much of an impact – it’s a little bit, it helps, but mostly this is about getting the public to talk about problems and some of the solutions for bees,” Buhler noted. “It’s about the bigger picture and how people can help the bees.” A project launch event will be held May 29 at the Honeybee Centre, with garden hosts, volunteers and donors in attendance. Also at the facility, construction continues on a storage building to be used for the new commercial beekeeping program at Kwantlen Polytechnic University. “They started the program in January, and we collaborated with them on the curriculum,” Buhler said. “There is a lack of commercial beekeepers now, because a lot of those second-generation beekeepers are leaving the industry, which is getting more challenging, more difficult. There’s a need to start training new people to pick up the slack.”

A feature that delves deep into the people and issues in our community. Send your story ideas to edit@thenownewspaper.com

Surrey woman who has been fighting Lyme disease for three years will speak at a conference in Ottawa next week that aims to educate medical practitioners on how to better help patients with this debilitating illness. Linda Kilgallen, 50, was tending a garden on a 10-acre lot of land in Surrey, cleaning wisteria vines with a blower one October day three years ago when a bunch of bugs fell on her. She shook them off, and didn’t give it a second thought. That, she believes, was the incident that changed her life, and not for the better. After she went to bed that night, her head became itchy. She felt like something was laying eggs. The next day, she went to a walkin medical clinic and asked them to check her out, she said, but the physician didn’t look at her head. “She patted my arm and said, ‘Sweetie, you’re really stressed out. You need to go take yourself a pill and a nap, and relax,’” Kilgallen recalled. “She wrote me a prescription for what I called ‘happy pills.’ I never filled the prescription for happy pills. I don’t need to take drugs. “That was the beginning. Every two to three days was something completely bizarre.” Kilgallen said she was working as a road flagger at the time. “I was working great hours. One hundred and twenty eight hours in eight days, I did.” But she started feeling run down. “It started with itchy feet, at two in the morning. Got up because it was so unbearable, I couldn’t sleep. By five in the morning the itch had gone from my feet to about my waist. As soon as the clinic opened I went in, they wrote me up as ‘patient is trying to remove skin from entire body’ because I was literally standing there going like this,” she said, feigning wild scratching. “‘Please, please, just make it stop, and I was bawling and clawing at myself,” she said, re-living the moment. “They thought I was a drug addict.” Six weeks and eight walk-in clinics later, a naturopath told her she had Lyme disease. She figures a female blacklegged deer tick had lodged itself in her scalp, bit her and transmitted borrelia bacteria. According to CanLyme (Canadian Lyme Disease Foundation) ticks pick up the bacteria by biting woodland animals like mice or deer and then pass it on to their humans hosts. The symptoms of the disease are many and varied, making it difficult to diagnose. “I would wake up in the middle

Surrey’s Linda Kilgallen is sharing her experience with Lyme disease in Ottawa. (Photo: TOM ZYTARUK) of the night screaming in pain,” Kilgallen said. “I went from being perfectly healthy to six weeks later I had a seizure, and couldn’t walk and my hair fell out.” She said she now knows a lot of people stricken with Lyme disease but hadn’t heard of it before contracting it herself. “I had no idea,” she said. “That much hair (lost) in one brushing, I thought I was going to die that day. That was the scariest day ever.” Kilgallen expressed frustration that some medical practitioners not only don’t know how to treat or diagnose Lyme disease, they don’t believe it exists. For her, the horror continues. Just last week, she spent seven hours in hospital. “Severe tremors and I puffed up and turned beet red,” she said. “Fun times.” Kilgallen said her meds cost her a financially crippling $900 to

$1,400 a month. She has been invited to share her experience with the disease at Health Canada’s Federal Framework on Lyme Disease Conference, being held in Ottawa from May 15 to 17. “The government is sponsoring me. They’re flying me and putting up my hotel.” May, she noted, is “the first official world-accepted Lyme Month.” The conference, according to Health Canada literature, aims to “develop a framework that will help prevent and reduce Lyme disease-related health risks to Canadians” and will focus on medical surveillance for tracking, standardizing educational material for Canadian public health providers to use, to increase national awareness of the disease and establish better guidelines for treatment, prevention, identification and management. “I am hoping to help them

If they had looked at my head and found that tick, and if they believed in Lyme disease, five weeks of antibiotics and I would have been better. And now I don’t even know what’s going to happen.”

Why you should care

he number of reported cases of Lyme disease in Canada is growing, from 128 known cases in 2009 to 707 cases in 2015. But just what is Lyme disease and how do people get it? When it comes to transmission, blacklegged deer ticks, which thrive in southern British Columbia, are the culprit. These creepy crawlies are dark reddish-brown, changing hues as they feed and are dark grey-brown when stuffed with blood. A fully fed tick is egg-shaped and about a centimetre long. Evidence suggests blacklegged tick populations are spreading. These ticks carry a type of bacteria called Borrelia burgdorferi after feeding on infected wildlife like deer, birds, mice or squirrels. You might not even know you’ve been bitten because the ticks are so small and their bite is typically painless. Some symptoms are fatigue, fever, chills, headaches, muscle and joint pain, spasms, weakness, numbness or tingling, swollen lymph nodes, skin rashes, cognitive dysfunction, dizziness, nervous system disorders, arthritis, and heart palpitations. And, though not common, death. It can be beat with two to four weeks of antibiotics if diagnosed early. Removing ticks within 24 to 36 hours usually prevents infection. Here’s how it’s done: Using clean tweezers, grab the tick’s head as close as possible to the skin and slowly pull it straight out. Then, wash the bite with soap and water or disinfect with alcohol, and hope for the best. Outdoor enthusiasts – such as hunters, golfers, campers, fishermen and hikers – are most at risk of getting bit. Using insect repellents that contain DEET or Icaridin is recommended. In town, some good ways to reduce tick habitats is to keep your lawn mowed, move woodpiles and bird feeders away from your home, keep dogs and cats out of the woods, move children’s swings and sandboxes away from any forest edge and trim tree branches and shrubs around your lawn edge to let in more sunlight.

DEBATE

Our view

Hits & Misses

Distracted drivers may soon get message

HIT: Eight-year-old Rebecca Stewart has collected 256 pairs of shoes, with help from friends, family and the congregation of Crossroads United Church, for Mama Orphans Children’s Home in Kenya, Africa (see page 3).

e applaud the provincial government for strengthening penalties for distracted driving. Nothing worse than looking in your rear view mirror and seeing a motorist hurtling toward you as they’re looking down, eyes transfixed on their phone. Correction – what’s worse is getting rear-ended by the idiot, and getting injured or killed. Texting drivers are a plague on our roads, no better than drunk drivers. In fact, it’s the leading cause of death on British Columbia’s roads. Effective June 1, each distracted driving offence will carry a base fine of $368 – up from $167 – and will also tack four penalty points onto the offender’s driving record. First-time offenders will be slapped with a minimum of $543 in financial penalties. How that works is, the $368 will be combined with escalating ICBC penalty point premiums starting from $175 for the first offence and climbing for additional clownery within a 12-month period. Repeat offenders – and this is great – will pay the $368 fine plus $528 for a total of $888 in penalties on a second offence, escalating with each additional offence. And repeat offenders will also have their driving record reviewed, possibly resulting in a driving prohibition of three to 12 months. Considering distracted drivers killed 66 people and injured more than 630 on B.C.’s roads in 2014 (last year’s figures are not yet available), we say these new penalties can’t be put into law fast enough. The Now

MISS: We agree with Steve Henderson (see page 1) when he says the City of Surrey needs to show more leadership in planning, as opposed to “rubber stamping everything” developers put in front of it.

Column

It’s better to give than to receive, but c’mon help poorer countries combat the effects of climate change. In my column, I harkened back SoLetItBeDone to Jean Chretien’s time in office, Tom Zytaruk when that Liberal prime minister donated $1.5 billion in Canadian tax money to Mexico after that country’s Peso collapsed. So let it be written... This is how Chretien explained his rationale to me at the time: Do you have someone in your “We have internationally agreed life who is happy to give, but too that if one of the partners gets in proud to receive? difficulty the other nations come No? to rescue,” he said. “That is, if Of course you do. He’s your eventually we are in trouble, others prime minister, Justin Trudeau. Generous with your money, but come to our rescue.” Well, that time has come. The unwilling to accept any help on Fort McMurray fire is not only a your behalf. spectacularly costly disaster for Several months ago, I wrote a column entitled “Slap the Liberals’ Alberta, but for all of Canada. We can all expect to pay more at the helping hand already,” in which pumps as a result, not to mention I took our fledgling federal the current tally for insurance government to task for spending Canadian tax money willy-nilly on claims is about $9 billion. Economics expert Atif Kubursi, foreign nations. a professor emeritus at McMaster For instance, only three weeks University, told the CBC that “one into his new job, and before the way or another, the insurance new Parliament’s first sitting, companies are going to recoup Trudeau pledged $2.65 billion to

their losses.” And you know how that’s done – higher premiums. Let alone, the cost to rebuild. Because Canada’s tax pool is only so big, tax increases have to be on the horizon. There is, of course, a way out of all this. Trudeau could have cashed in Chretien’s chip, but he blew it. Sadly, the point Canada’s 20th prime minister was making to me all those years ago has been totally lost on Canada’s 23rd. Mexico, the United States, Russia, Australia, Israel, Taiwan and the Palestinian Authority have all offered to help Canada deal with the Fort McMurray disaster, but what does Trudeau do? Thanks, but no thanks. Aargh! In his own words, he called the offer to help “touching,” but added, “There is no need to accept any international assistance at this point, but we certainly thank everyone for their generosity.” His response begs the following

question: If the Fort McMurray disaster doesn’t rate as a situation in which Canada could benefit from some outside help, Mr. Trudeau, then in your mind, what the heck would? Man, he blew it. There may be no second offers of help, thanks to his brush off. And, once again, Canadians will carry the full burden of a Canadian politician’s bad decision on their already overburdened shoulders. Money, to my knowledge anyway, does not grow on trees. At least, I don’t have any money trees in my back yard, do you have any in yours? Maybe Trudeau should get right on that. Maybe he has the answers. Sure hope so, though I very much doubt it. So let it be done. Tom Zytaruk is a staff writer with the Now. Email him at tom. zytaruk@thenownewspaper.com

‘Now’ story on food bank started ball rolling to $61K The Editor, Re: “Food bank struggles to serve Syrians,” the Now, April 21. Now reporter Amy Reid wrote a wonderful front page story on the increase of new clients needing our help at the Surrey Food Bank in the month of March. About 1,000 more people came to our doors for food assistance that month in comparison to the same time last year. These are our neighbours – low-income families, new refugees, single parents, seniors on Mariln Hermann fixed income – people struggling to stretch their minimal income, pay for the high cost of housing and basic necessities and deal with some challenging life circumstances. The Surrey Food Bank has been in our community for 33 years and we are proud that we can offer a hand-up while at the same time connecting our clients to other resources that will help to improve their lives. Amy’s story touched the hearts of many in our city and we are very grateful, but there were even more remarkable outcomes from this one frontpage story in the Now. It was read by many others, including Corus Entertainment and Global TV and their employees rallied around the Surrey Food Bank. Through radio, TV and social media they shared our story with communities beyond our own, and even organized a one-day, on-site drive at our food bank “# Feed Me Friday.” To all who made this happen and to those who generously donated food and gifts of money totalling over $61,000 – warmest thanks from our food bank family and clients. We now understand the meaning of the following quote from Margaret Mead: “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”

Feds caused this mess The Editor, Re: “Food bank struggles to serve Syrians,” the Now, April 21. Was it not the federal government that brought 25,000 Syrian refugees into Canada? Is it not the responsibility of the federal government to provide food, housing, medical, etc., using our tax dollars? How is it that about 600 Syrians end up on the doorstep of the Surrey Food Bank? If the federal government isn’t providing financial support to the Surrey Food Bank, will Surrey families that desperately rely on this valuable service go without? Are communities across Canada now expected to pay for a feelgood Trudeau photo op? S. Jones, Surrey

Green space is vital

The Editor, Re: “Call to freeze growth ‘hit a chord,’” the Now, April 28. Thank you for running such a great edition about overdevelopment and the plight of residents, both housed and homeless. I just heard about development in Green Timbers. Here’s a copy of the letter I sent to the city: “I just heard that an area of Green Timbers is up for development. Please make sure that Green Timbers is protected from development by turning down this development proposal and rezoning the area as protected parkland. “Surrey is losing green space at an astonishing rate. There will be no forests left in Grandview Heights after development there is done. With the loss of Surrey’s greatest treasure chest of tree canopy, don’t put the nail in the coffin by starting to peck away at Green Timbers. “Trees are vital to people’s health and to the health of the environment, to which we are inexorably linked. Save Green Timbers! It was clearcut against the wishes of residents 100 years ago. Let’s keep these trees where they belong – in the ground.” Alisa P. Ramakrishnan, Surrey Marilyn Herrmann, Surrey Food Bank

❚ Roses to Julie the bus driver who was serving the 321 bus route on a recent Friday afternoon. She was very courteous and kind to the passengers on the bus the whole way down to Surrey Central. I don’t usually see that generous kind of behaviour in a bus driver. We need more bus drivers like her on the road.

❚ Rotten tomatoes to inconsiderate neighbours in East Clayton. Yes, you may live in a single-family home but remember – your neighbour’s open window is less then 10 feet from you. Be quiet, be considerate. Please think of someone else other than yourself for once.

❚ Red roses and many lucky dimes to my beautiful wife on our four-year anniversary. Even through the rough spots, we always know how lucky we are to have found each other. I love you!

❚ A truckload of moldy rotten tomatoes to the person who snaked my parking spot at Surrey Central while my indicator was still blinking. I suggest that you please learn the rules of the road because that was not very polite. Shame on you.

❚ Roses to Apple Music for helping me find songs that I have been looking for for ages. Thank you!

❚ A big litter bag full of rotten tomatoes to the people who treat SkyTrain like garbage bins. How ignorant are you?

❚ Roses for the wonderful nurses and volunteers at Surrey Memorial Hospital Child Youth Services. They went above and beyond caring for my son, who kept them all on their toes most of the time. Extra roses to Christine and her volunteers for entertaining him and making me feel comfortable during our stay. Thank you so much.

❚ A big stinky bag full of rotten tomatoes go out to all the bylaw officers who are never around to stop people from breaking bylaws in Surrey parks.

❚ Roses to people in customer service who actually greet you with a smile. ❚ Roses to the young man who helped me push my golf cart up a huge hill at Belmont golf course, it was much appreciated. You obviously saw me struggling and I thank you for that.

❚ Rotten tomatoes to TransLink for giving me the wrong times for the 320. Congrats, you just made me very late for my appointment! I hope you’re happy and feel really good about yourself! ❚ Rotten tomatoes to everyone going on and on about forest fires on social media, as if they are experts on climate change and political science. When big news happens, all the experts come out of their shells on Facebook. I wonder what these people do with all their degrees?

City council

Controversial Green Timbers project gets green light Amy Reid and Tom Zytaruk Now staff

SURREY — A civic development project next to the 425-acre (183-hectare) Green Timbers Urban Forest is moving ahead after Surrey city council unanimously gave it the green light Monday. The city is rezoning roughly five hectares (roughly 12 acres) of what used to be provincial land adjacent to Green Timbers, which has second growth forest, wetlands, a lake, meadows and nature trails. The city gave third reading Monday to amend the Official Community Plan bylaw to redesignate the forested site, at 9900 140th St. and 14150 Green Timbers Way, from mixed employment to multiple residential and rezone the site from one acre residential to comprehensive development to permit institutional, civic, medical and government-related offices, residential uses, a care facility,

emergency shelter, transitional housing, offices, a bio-energy facility, parking, retail stores and restaurants to be developed there. The City of Surrey purchased the properties from the province in 2014 and Councillor Tom Gill confirmed with staff that there were no obligations at the time of sale. Before the vote, Councillor Judy Villeneuve checked with staff that these properties were not part of the dedicated Green Timbers Urban Forest, through either the 1987 or the 1996 referendums. Villeneuve said she supported the rezoning because of the need to

replace the city’s emergency shelter. “The City of Surrey is behind on social infrastructure,” she remarked, noting the city has been trying to get a new shelter off the ground for the past five to eight years and that BC Housing has signed off on this location. “We need the opportunity and lands positioned well, close to services, in order to meet the needs of some of our most vulnerable citizens in the city,” she said. During the public hearing on May 2, Jim Foulkes, a director for Green Timbers Heritage Society, received applause after he urged council to “preserve the trees to the satisfaction of the people of Surrey.” “Basically our sole reason for being is to try to preserve your park from this slow whittling away of areas of it,” he said of his society. “It may not be designated as a park, it may not be legalized as a park, but in 1930 the province of B.C. said it would stay as a forest in perpetuity.

Our apologies

n last week’s issue, the wrong page 5 was printed due to a mixup at the press. This meant our story on the Green Timbers hearing was not published in its entirety. We have included some of the missing story here. You can also find the complete story at thenownewspaper.com.

I’m rather dumbfounded that when a piece of land suddenly comes up that the province has been holding for some 90 years as treed area, realty services jumps on the chance to turn it into a residential development when a referendum had most of the people of Surrey voting that they want to have a park.” At the same hearing, Deb Jack, Surrey Environmental Partners, called for a thorough assessment of the trees and wildlife in the forest

under rezoning consideration. “Quite frankly there’s going to be another killing field if we don’t know what’s there,” she said, adding she wants heritage trees protected. “We are simply losing too many, as far as the whole city is concerned.” Bill Potma, a resident of nearby Odyssey Tower, said if council gives up the trees to development, it should have never called the street Green Timbers Way, “because you’re talking away pieces, one after another.” Elizabeth Holcombe, who lives across street from the land, told council “I don’t want transitional or homeless shelters there; there’s an elementary school right around the corner. We put steel gates in our complex to keep people like that out of our complex because there’s a huge problem in that area.” A required Phase 1 Development Permit must now be processed before the project can receive council’s final approval.

Shootings tally now at 35 Two men injured in two separate shootings Monday

The DART team is focused on tackling crime trends in Delta.

SURREY/DELTA — Surrey Mounties are investigating two shootings that happened on Monday, bringing the city’s tally of gunfire-related incidents in 2016 to 35. “Police believe the two incidents may be connected to each other and are seeking additional information from the public,” Corporal Scotty Schuman said. Police received a call during the early morning hours that a man showed up at Abbotsford’s hospital with gun shot wounds that weren’t life-threatening. Police believe the shooting happened in Surrey, in the 7500-block of 135th Street, at about 2:30 a.m. The victim is not from Surrey, Schumann said, but “he is known to police.” Then on Monday night a man in his early 20s was injured by shattered glass after bullets hit the car he was in. This happened at about 7:45 p.m., in the 7200-block of 152nd Street, and two cars were involved. “The suspect vehicle was seen fleeing from the scene shortly after the incident,” Surrey RCMP Sergeant Joe Johal said. A white Chrysler 300 with bullet holes in it was found on 152nd Street and Highway 10 shortly thereafter and the man

The Surrey RCMP has not revealed a motive for the shooting. Meanwhile, Delta Police say the April 28 drive-by shooting in North Delta wasn’t connected with Surrey’s rash of shootings but resulted from a dispute between teenagers over property. This was the first confirmed shooting in Delta since May 2015. Police say some of Surrey’s 35 shootings were over drug

Police arrested two 19-yearold Delta men after shots were fired at a house and vehicle in North Delta on April 28. Both have been released from custody and are to appear in Surrey provincial court next month on charges of careless use of a firearm, possession of a prohibited weapon, and possession of stolen property.

Man killed in fire

Two stabbings

Crash hurts four

GUILDFORD — Police say a 55-yearold man is dead and a middle-aged woman is in hospital after a fire in Guildford early Wednesday morning. The blaze is believed to have started just before 1 a.m. at a home in the 9000-block of 148th Street. When police arrived they found the man suffering from burns and he was confirmed dead at the scene. The woman suffered smoke inhalation and was taken to hospital in serious condition. Police said they believe the fire is “non-suspicious.”

SURREY — Surrey Mounties are investigating two stabbings over the past weekend, in Whalley and Newton. The most recent was on Sunday at about 5:30 p.m., and apparently stemmed from a road-rage attack in the 12100-block of 72nd Avenue. On Friday, at about 11:30 p.m., a man was found stabbed at the Gateway SkyTrain Station in Whalley. Police are asking witnesses to either stabbing to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502.

NEWTON — Police suspect speeding and impaired driving played a role in a two-car crash Friday night that sent four people to hospital. The crash was at about 9:30 p.m., at the intersection of 132nd Street and Highway 10. Surrey RCMP Corporal Scotty Schumann said the patients have since been released from hospital. Police say charges have not been laid and the crash is still under investigation.

y first clue was the rehearsal space – a fourth floor room at the Surrey School Board District Education Centre on 92nd Avenue. Don’t choirs generally practise their chops in... churches? My second clue was right there in the lyrics of the very first song they sang after I arrived, called “Would You Harbor Me?” Would you harbor me? Would I harbor you? Would you harbor a Christian, a Muslim, a Jew? Would you harbor an exile or a refugee, or person living with AIDS? Would you harbor a Haitian, Korean or Czech, a lesbian or a gay?

Choir member Steve Goodman, right, says Saturday’s concert will “bring people together.” (Photo: GORD GOBLE)

she could make a difference – through song. “I saw a way to make an impact by showing them how to become activists rather than victims.” In 2001, Sirianni formed “GLASS” (Gay Lesbian And Supportive Singing), a choir based This was most definitely not more upon social justice than religion. your typical choir. “Social justice,” she explains, And this Saturday at the Surrey “has been part of my life for 20 City Hall Atrium, they’d love to years – as a teacher, as a mother, as show you what they’re all about. Carol Sirianni is the leader and a choir conductor. It includes but creator of “Aequitas,” as the group isn’t limited to poverty, violence against women, homophobia, is named, and she has quite the aboriginal education, racism, and story to tell. global stewardship.” It begins in the late 1990s, GLASS thrived for a decade, when, as a new instructor in the until “it was put on hiatus” Coquitlam School District, she when Sirianni moved to Surrey repeatedly “watched the bullying of students and teachers.” She also to ultimately become what she noticed that much of the bullying is today, the Fine Arts Helping Teacher for Surrey Schools. Soon came at the expense of gay and enough, she re-jigged the GLASS lesbian students. It hit her hard. As a music teacher and lover of concept, but this time for 19-plus all things melodic, Sirianni figured adults, and called it Aequitas

(Latin for “Justice”). Like GLASS before it, Aequitas is all-inclusive. And that in itself has created issues. “We’re open to everyone,” she says. “And it’s interesting. I’ve been asked before at competitions ‘How come you have straights singing with gays?’ I haven’t been allowed on committees because we won’t choose a specific bias.” That unbiased message of social justice is just fine with the Aequitas membership. Steve Goodman of Maple Ridge, whose day job is managing the Bell Performing Arts Centre, has been there since its start in 2014. “I think we’re looking to shine a light on issues we think are important in our society. People come here to find something they can’t find anywhere else,” he says. “But it’s also brought back a love that I forgot I had. I’d forgotten that I loved to sing

when I was young. You get older, you get wrapped up with things.” Goodman says Saturday’s show is much more than singing – and listening to – music. “This next concert of ours, we’ll bring people together. We’ll have tables for people who work with youth at risk. So people who see our performance can also have some refreshments afterward and mix and mingle with folks who work in our society with these groups, and maybe make some connection out of that.” Surrey’s Shawn Ewing sings, partly, because she believes in the community. Together with her wife a longtime resident of downtown Vancouver, Ewing says their move east to Surrey has been a pleasant surprise. “We bought a house in Surrey and we’ve been absolutely accepted here. We were called out so many times when we were downtown, but zero times in Surrey.” Ewing says she believes Aequitas is a “missing link” of sorts and is an awesome place for young people to find a voice. But most of all, she says, “This choir makes you feel good.” ❚ “Turn Out 2016 – Songs of Hope” goes Saturday at 7 p.m. Tickets are $10. Get them at the City of Surrey Box Office, either online or by calling 604-501-5566.

SURREY — Jim Tempest and members of his military band are excited to play host to a unique concert here this month. For its 26th year, the Pacific region’s International Military Band Concert is coming to Metro Vancouver – specifically, Surrey’s Chandos Pattison Auditorium. “It’s the first time it’s ever been held here in Greater Vancouver, which is exciting for us,” said Tempest, music director of the Band of the Fifteenth Field Artillery Regiment, RCA, part of the Canadian Army Reserve based in Vancouver. “It’s a big deal it’s coming here, for sure.” On the afternoon of Victoria Day (Monday, May 23), close to 80 musicians from six military bands in B.C., Washington and

for concert on Victoria Day Musicians from each of the bands will form a composite, or massed band for the performance in Surrey. “Our band is the core, and each band will bring between six to 10 people,” Tempest explained. “It’s like going to see the VSO in a theatre – there won’t be marching or anything.” The concert will feature symphonic wind music, traditional marches, film music and more. “It covers the gamut, and there will be something for everybody,” Tempest said. “Having done this for so many years, the calibre of performance is as good as anyone could hope. It’ll blow your mind, it really will, because the level of musicianship is amazing. “The nature of the work that most of us do doesn’t allow for

this kind of concert literature because, you know, we’re out on parade squares and playing at dinners and stuff like that, so for the musicians it’s this fantastic opportunity to get together and play really great music in a really great ensemble. It kind of nourishes our musical side. And because it’s played so incredibly well, the audiences just go crazy.” For the first 20 years of its existence, the annual concert was sponsored by a business association in Olympia, WA. “They set up the hall, did all the publicity, and it’s very much a military town, with lots of community support for it, but for some reason in 2010 they decided not to do it any more, so the concert has moved around since then,” said Tempest, who also leads Delta Concert Band. Tickets for the concert range from $10 to $20, and net

proceeds will support school band programs in the province, via the B.C. Military Music Society. “Our band includes seven players who teach elementary band, and four or five of them are in Surrey,” Tempest said. “One of the guys told me he gets $50 a year to run his band program, so imagine that for a piece of music for a band it’s $25 or $30, so that’s one or two pieces of new music per year. They make do by using old stuff and borrowing and sharing, but if we can give each one of those programs another $50, that’ll double their amount of money.” Tickets can be purchased through the websites Tapestrymusic.com/tickets and Picatic.com/imbc. More info about the concert can be found at Militarymusic.ca.

In 1999, he won gold with the Kelowna Grizzles softball team at the World Games in North Carolina, took first place in men’s singles figure skating at the worlds in Alaska and in 2005 won gold at the World Games in Nagano in pairs figure skating. He also competed with the Surrey Vipers soccer team in 2007 at the Shanghai World Games, winning gold, and once again landed first place in the men’s singles figure skating in 2009 at the World Games in Idaho. Notably, at a 2001 World Games, Theriault landed the first double jump in Special Olympics history. Right now he’s busy working on a new skating program, practising three times a week. “I’m working on some bigger jumps than previous years,” he said. “One of them is a double axel. The other is a triple sow cow.” Asked what are his most memorable moments in his career, two came to mind. “In 2007 for the World Summer Games for soccer I scored the game-tying goal in the gold medal game and we also went into a shootout and I scored the game-winning goal,” he said proudly.

Locals Marc Theriault and Susan Wang are representing Canada at the Special Olympics. (Photo: AMY REID) But last year in South Korea he received a reward of a different kind. “That year it wasn’t about the medal,” he revealed. “It was about helping out the new guys. I ended up helping one of them, he was 15 years old, it was his first World Games. He was so nervous before going out on the ice. The stands were full. He just bursted down in tears. “I tried to make him relax, concentrate. I made him take some deep breaths. At first he was hyperventilating.” The teen ultimately took home a silver medal. That athlete will also be at the

Special Olympics next year and calls Theriault “dad.” Being a role model is a responsibility he gladly accepts, and he had advice for parents of children with disabilities. “Some parents might not want to put their kids in (Special Olympics) because they might be embarrassed. But they shouldn’t think that way. It might make their lives better,” said Theriault. “It might make them more comfortable with the way that they are now. Without sports, I don’t know what I would do.”

SURREY — Surrey Pegasus is one soccer win away from going to the nationals for the first time since 2011. The Vancouver Metro Soccer League Premier division team is facing the Coquitlam Metro Ford Wolves in the Provincial ‘A’ Cup finals Saturday in Victoria. To get there, Surrey Pegasus needed to beat Saanich, Comox and Pacific United, which they beat 1-0 in the semifinal (Javid Khan scoring the lone goal). The last time Surrey Pegasus made it to nationals was in 2011, when they placed second. The team also made it to the nationals in 2004, where they won it all. Surrey Pegasus is coached by Paul Bahia and managed by Jasmeet Jaswal.

Bob McHugh / Black Press Media

Dana Point, California – Visually it looks bigger and bulkier, but the new 2017 Cadillac XT5 is actually an inch (2.5 cm) shorter in length and considerably lighter (136 kg) than the current Cadillac SRX it replaces. A longer wheelbase and bigger wheels (19/20 inch) add to the XT5’s optical illusion and its stretched cabin area allows (much needed) additional rear seat legroom. Like its successful predecessor, the XT5 is a stylish mid-sized luxury utility vehicle. Power is provided by a new direct injection 3.6-litre (315-horsepower) V6 engine with cylinder deactivation and auto stop/ start features to improve fuel efficiency. The name change is apparently part of a larger Cadillac master plan for a series of (leaner and meaner) XT crossover utility vehicles (both small-

Highway (SR74) to Lake Elsinore. It’s a tight two-lane mountain road with steep drop-offs, intimidating rock faces, lots of switchback… and spectacular views. The early morning gut tester of a drive certainly helped showcase the impressively agile and predicable handling abilities of the XT5. A new Caddy always comes packed with new technology and the XT5 doesn’t disappoint, especially if you splurge for a higher trim version. Unique new tech includes Cadillac’s patented Rear Camera Mirror, which enhances a driver’s rear vision by 300 per cent. An AJAC Best New Safety Technology winner, it helps solve a driver vision issue that plagues many modern high back design vehicles. The advanced “twin clutch” all-wheel drive system is now capable of transferring up to 100 percent of available torque to either the front or rear axle and/or to either rear wheel. There’s also a new driver-controlled “disconnect” feature that disables the rear drive unit. Improved fuel efficiency and reduced emissions are the benefits of operating in this front-drive mode. Canadian prices for a Cadillac XT5 will start at $45,100 (FWD) and $52,120 for the all-wheel-drive editions. Expected city/highway fuel economy ratings for FWD editions are 12.1/8.6 L/100km and 12.9/8.9 L/100km for AWD editions and an XT5 runs fine on regular gasoline. bob.mchugh@drivewaybc.ca

Big and bulky looks of new Cadillac XT5 designed to deceive

These days, Cadillac benchmarks its products against European competitors such as BMW and Mercedes-Benz, instead of domestic rivals.

The new 3.6L V6 is the only engine offered in XT5 and it’s mated with an eight-speed automatic that features Cadillac’s first-ever (drive-bywire) electronically controlled shifter.
