Second person charged in death of Surrey teen Aaron Hinks Staff reporter

A second person has been charged in connection with the death of Bhavkiran Dhesi.

Last week, the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team held a press conference and announced that Harjot Singh Deo, 21, has been charged with second-degree murder in 19-yearold Dhesi’s death.

According to the court registry, Manjit Kaur Deo, who is about 54 years old, has been charged with “accessory after the fact to murder” in relation to the same case.

The Intigrated Homicide Investigation Team held a press conference Tuesday morning after Peace Arch News press deadline.

“We’re not finished yet,” Supt. Donna Richardson said at last week’s press conference. “We believe that we still have individuals in the community that have very intimate knowledge of what happened in this instance, of what happened to Bhavkiran. We’re looking for other individuals to come forward if they have that knowledge.”

Dhesi was last seen leaving the family home, with the family car, at 9 p.m. on Aug. 1, 2017.

Her body was found in a torched SUV at 12:20 a.m. Aug. 2, in the 18700-block of 24 Avenue

Police have now charged a second person in connection with the death of Bhavkiran Dhesi. in South Surrey.

“I understand she was going to meet friends,” Cpl. Meghan Foster said last week, noting she could not reveal if the Surrey teenager actually kept the appointment with her friends.

Foster said investigators do not believe the 18700-block of 24 Avenue area is where the murder was committed.

“I can’t speak to where we believe the initial crime scene was.”

Police have spoken with a number of persons of interest, Foster said, though she could not speak to the nature of the relationship the accused had with the victim.

“The number of suspect, or suspects, all I can say is we are speaking with persons of interest.”

Education minister announces $6M for completion of land for new school in Sunnyside neighbourhood

Construction begins on new high school Tracy Holmes Staff reporter

After years of anticipation, construction began on South Surrey’s newest high school Friday (May 17).

With an excavator working in the distance, representatives from the province, school district and City of Surrey gathered at the site – in the 16900-block of 26 Avenue – to officially break ground on Grandview Heights Secondary.

Board of Education trustee Laurae McNally told Peace Arch News it was an occasion she’s waited eight years for.

“Finally,” she said, prior to a news conference, holding her pink hard hat in hand.

The occasion was also a symbolic groundbreaking for a new 605-seat elementary school in the Douglas neighbourhood – budgeted for up to $33.1 million – in the 17200-block of 2 Avenue.

As well, Minister of Education Rob Fleming announced funding – $6 million in all, including $3.6 million from the province and $2.4 million from the school district – to “complete the assembly of the site needed to build a much-needed elementary school in the Sunnyside neighbourhood.”

“This is exciting news for families,” Fleming told attendees.

The 630-seat Sunnyside-area school is slated for property at the corner of 20 Avenue and 165A Street.

Surrey School District officials announced May 15 that construction contracts had been awarded for the high school and the elementary school.

Fleming on Friday confirmed Port Moodybased Yellowridge Construction Ltd. will be building the secondary school, while Clark Builders won the elementary school contract.

The 1,500-seat secondary school is anticipated to open in September 2021 – a year later than initially hoped. Fleming said the province had to add $32.6 million to the budget “to ensure it could go ahead and benefit students as fast as possible.”

Last October, school district officials confirmed the project had been delayed as a result of “changing market conditions” that meant it could no longer be built within its $60.6 million budget.

Surrey School District spokesman Doug Strachan told PAN that actual construction costs will be around $68 million, with the balance of funds to cover costs of necessary infrastructure such as sewer and roads.

In addition to Fleming, Board of Education chair Laurie Larsen and acting Mayor Laurie Guerra spoke at Friday’s event.

Councillor calls for more hard data on the impact of trial free parking on Marine Drive businesses

Free winter parking, higher summer rates eyed Alex Browne Staff reporter

Parking on the White Rock waterfront could be free on weekdays during the winter season, if new rates being considered by council are implemented.

But no-charge winter parking would come at the price of a higher hourly rate during thwe summer in ‘high-demand zones’ closer to businesses and Memorial Park.

In a bylaw amendment, which was given three readings at council’s May 13 regular meeting but is – as yet – not adopted, parking from November through February would be free Monday to Friday, and cost $2 per hour on Saturday and Sunday.

For the ‘shoulder season’ months of March and October, on-street and waterfront-lot parking would be $2 per hour, seven days a week.

The contemplated rates would also apply to the Montecito parkade and the newly-opened West Beach parkade.

Under the same bylaw – drafted following recommendations of the city’s Parking Task Force – parking would rise to $4 per hour in the high-demand zones (all lots east of Oxford Street to the Hump, including the parkades) between April and September.

During those months, the parking rate for a ‘value-priced zone’ (lots

Parking on the White Rock waterfront could be free on weekdays during the winter, but that lost revenue would be made up with higher rates in the summer, if council implements recommendations from the city’s Parking Task Force. west of Oxford) would be set at $3.50 per hour.

Also under consideration is a daily rate for the Montecito and West Beach parkades of $15, from April through September.

As proposed in the bylaw, the daily rate for the parkades would fall to $7.50 during the shoulder season months of March and October, and the same price on weekends during winter months (with weekdays free).

There would also be a maximum four-hour stay in the high-demand zone, with the exception of the parkades.

The bylaw is scheduled for final reading and adoption at council’s

next regular meeting, on May 27.

At last week’s meeting, Coun.

Christopher Trevelyan, who chaired the Parking Task Force committee, noted that, while one argument is that the city should optimize parking revenue during the summer to pay for free winter parking, “as a council, we may want to consider carefully when these rate changes happen.”

And he acknowledged that no one knows, at this point, how the public will respond to parking offered at the new West Beach parkade.

In supporting the suggested changes to parking rates, Mayor Darryl Walker suggested that pay parking on the waterfront must still be con-

Fairness ‘breached’ – G.S.R.

Continued from A1 is entitled to proceed with a 12-storey development at 1310 Johnston Rd.; that an order be made to the city to quash a number of Official Community Plan and zoning bylaws, including bylaw 2289, which serves as a guideline for building heights on the 1300-block of Johnston Road; and the city pay costs to the developer.

G.S.R. suggests that city councillors adopted Bylaw 2290 “to thwart GSR’s approved development. This is evidenced by comments made by council members during the various council meetings and the staff reports.”

The petition also claims that the city “breached the rules of procedural fairness” at a public hearing, which was originally set for Feb. 20 of this year but was rescheduled that day to instead take place March 11.

“GSR specifically requested that the date of the public hearing be changed because key members of its team were not available on the new (March 11) date.

“The city refused to change the date of the public hearing even though Bylaw 2290 targeted GSR’s Property,” the document states.

Calgary’s G.S.R. Capital Group, proponents of the Lady Alexandra project, is taking the City of White Rock to court over tower height bylaws.

The petition says that two days after the council was inaugurated on Nov. 5, a special meeting was called by Mayor Darryl Walker “to review the status of major development projects.”

The petition states the special meeting dealt specifically with G.S.R.’s property, however, the city did not notify G.S.R. of the special meeting “even though GSR and City staff had been communicating about the Project the week before the meeting, including on November 6th, and notwithstanding that the purpose of the resolutions was to prevent

GSR from proceeding with its approved development.

“The right to notice should have been extant even if GSR would not have an opportunity to be heard at the special meeting. At the very least, GSR and the public generally had a right to be provided with a fair, open and transparent process,” the petition states.

The City of White Rock has not yet responded to the petition, however, the city told Peace Arch News on May 16 that they intend to do so.

None of the allegations put forth by G.S.R. have been tested in court.

Joint Surrey/Vancouver bid, proposing driverless shuttles as part of transit network, finished in top five of national contest

Shuttle project loses Smart Cities Challenge Tom Zillich Black Press Media

A joint Surrey/Vancouver bid to create Canada’s first two “collision free multi-modal corridors” using automated shuttles has failed in its bid to win the nation’s Smart Cities Challenge.

The competition winners were announced May 14 at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa, with a project in Montreal named winner of the top prize. The Surrey/Vancouver proposal had hoped to share $50 million to create its project.

The proposed networks in Surrey and Vancouver were to be located near SkyTrain stations, essentially expanding the driverless transit network in the region.

The announcement was livestreamed on Infrastructure Canada’s YouTube channel.

Four Canadian communities won prizes to cap Canada’s first-ever Smart Cities Challenge, a two-year competition designed to encourage communities across the country “to harness the potential of technology and data to improve the lives of Canadians.”

The cash prizes – one worth $5 million, two of $10 million each and one of $50 million – are to be used by the winners to turn their visions

Two pilot projects proposed in Sur-

rey would have been activated in two phases. Phase one would have been a “University Drive Pilot” that would run for one year along University Drive from roughly 102 and 108 Avenues, primarily separated from traffic. It would be a “1.2-kilometre dedicated autonomous vehicle demonstration route in the heart of Surrey City Centre, linking Surrey Central SkyTrain Station with Gateway SkyTrain Station.”

If created, it would “deploy automated shuttles in exclusive rightsof-way to allow for changes in legislation that will permit on-road deployment of automated vehicles” and “capitalize on opportunities to pilot enhanced safety technologies, (and) familiarize city operations with autonomous vehicle technology.”

The two collision-free corridors – Vancouver’s South False Creek Innovation Corridor and the Surrey Innovation Corridor – would aim to achieve a number of outcomes including “improved safety, reduced emissions, healthier communities, increased availability of mobility options, more socially connected communities, increased accessibility to the community higher people-moving capacity, (and) an enhanced travel experience.”

Parking still a pilot project

T

he subject of waterfront parking is one that successive White Rock councils have struggled with for years.

There is no easy answer to setting rates and limits on parking along the Marine Drive strip – particularly as shortage of supply and the very existence of pay parking have frequently been blamed for any and all business hardships.

The current council, hewing to the wellintentioned efforts of a parking task force chaired

by Coun. Christopher Trevelyan, is contemplating more free parking during weekdays in winter months following on the heels of this year’s decision to try a blanket free-parking policy in February and March.

Yet, as Coun. David Chesney has suggested, there is no empirical evidence that free parking is the solution to business ills on the waterfront.

But the problem this year is even more convoluted. Marine Drive was only just emerging from a business-inhibiting construction period for the delayed Memorial Park upgrade when the catastrophic Dec. 20 storm extensively damaged the pier, one of the city’s bona fide tourist draws.

Will that have an impact on summer visits, or will it be offset by events such as Canada Day By The Bay, Sea Festival and the TD Concerts For The Pier series?

At the same time, the completion of the new West Beach parkade has added 180 new parking spaces to the equation. But, as Trevelyan freely admitted at last week’s council meeting, no one really knows how popular it will prove with summer visitors.

When originally proposed and approved during the last administration, the parkade was considered for providing a cheaper parking alternative than the waterfront lots. The current parking task force has taken a different philosophical approach, including it in the “high demand” area where a premium rate would apply.

What is the correct approach? The answer is that no one really knows, and a clear picture of what the market will bear will only be available once the market has borne it this year. Until then, it’s a matter of guesswork, in which theoretical justification could be made for just about any figure pulled out of the air.

Meanwhile, the cost of housing has also jumped dramatically. Many people cannot afford even the most basic home, and rents have risen steadily.

The land uses proposed for AnniedaleTynehead do not address this pricing problem. Significant areas are being proposed for detached homes, which less than 10 per cent of the working population can afford. Some multifamily housing is proposed, but there is almost no transit in the area now. How a younger family will be able to afford a townhouse, two vehicles and child care isn’t addressed.

There is nothing wrong with infrastructure projects to support future development going ahead. However, the NCP needs a serious update.

Environmental protection must be looked at more carefully, and land uses which will actually provide housing for people who need it must be given higher priority.

Eight of the nine Surrey council members need to recall the “smart growth” principles they campaigned on and promised to abide by in the last election.

Opening up another area for development when infrastructure lags so far behind can hardly be considered “smart growth.”

Cost of climate change high Editor: Climate change isn’t some distant risk to our grandchildren.

It’s been affecting us since pine beetles destroyed a forest the size of Sweden, costing $43 billion in lost lumber, $10.2 billion in lost stumpage fees, 27,000 direct jobs, and hundreds of millions for B.C.’s Pine Beetle Action Plan.

The cause is climate change, driven by an increase in atmospheric greenhouse gases from fossil fuel combustion, leading to milder winters and hotter, drier summers.

Climate change has increased the frequency and severity of B.C.’s wildfires. In 2018 wildfires burned 1.2 million hectares, cost $568 million in fire suppression, and displaced 65,000 people.

Climate change doesn’t just favour forest diseases, insects, and wildfires; it has other costs, such as melting glaciers and warming fishbearing waters.

These expenses are the taxes we’re already paying in B.C. for the carbon we’ve dumped into the atmosphere.

We need climate action now to cut the cost of climate change.

intoxicated.

Women weighing between 140 to 240 pounds are impaired after two drinks. BC Ferries says that everyone who buys the alcohol drinks will be limited to two drinks only. How is this going to be monitored?

An example is a husband and wife both buy their food and pay for two drinks each.

The wife might not feel up to finishing her drinks, so her husband finishes the drinks instead.

The husband has now consumed four drinks, and when the ferry docks, will be driving off the ferry after consuming four drinks.

Also, we all know that people that take medications also take occasional alcohol drinks.

Medication and alcohol do not cooperate with each other.

Everyone reacts differently to alcohol consumption.

If ferry drivers meet a road block in their travels, are they going to lie to the police officer when asked have you had anything to drink?

A Canada-wide law now in effect allows the police officers to obtain a breathalyzer test from drivers at anytime they wish.

Play safe this summer Editor: Accidents can happen in a split second. As the weather warms up and kids spend more time outside, I encourage parents, teachers and community group leaders to help

pass on the War Amps PLAYSAFE message.

I grew up in the War Amps Child Amputee (CHAMP) program and have met kids who have lost limbs in accidents.

As a leg amputee, I also know what it is like to live without a limb.

Members of CHAMP are warning kids to spot the danger before they play in a new video, PLAYSAFE: Don’t Let It Happen to You. They share their stories about how they lost their limbs in accidents and stress the importance of staying away from “mean machines” like lawn mowers, boats, cars and farm equipment.

Booze, ferries a bad mix Editor: The proposal to sell alcoholic beverages with your buffet meals is outrageous for an one hour and 35-minute ferry ride. ICBC and BC Ferries are both taxpayer-owned Crown corporations.

ICBC spends mega dollars in CounterAttack driving programs and BC Ferries is promoting the opposite in more alcohol sales.

A person’s blood alcohol level is the result of a complex interaction of weight, gender, alcohol consumed and time.

Stats taken from the National Highway Traffic System Administration shows a 100-pound man is impaired after one drink.

After two drinks a 100 pound man is legally intoxicated. Men weighing between 120 and 200 pounds are impaired after two drinks.

Women, weighing between 100 and 120 pounds are impaired after one drink.

Plastic waste is clearly visible as it floats on the surface of the ocean, but beneath the surface, divers report immense tangled messes of discarded plastic– evidence of human beings’ short-sightedness, writes Frank Sterle Jr.

Weaving a tangled, plastic mess Editor: I doubt that notably less plastic waste will occur even a decade from now, particularly when – regardless of ocean divers’ reports of the immense tangled messes – so much of it is not immediately observable.

Out of sight, out of mind.

It doesn’t surprise me, as general human mentality allows us to throw non-biodegradable garbage down a dark chute like we’re safely dispensing it into a blackhole singularity.

And then there’s the astonishing short-sighted selfishness. I observed this last year when a local TV news reporter randomly asked a young Vancouver man what he thought of government restrictions on disposable plastic straws.

“It’s like we’re living in a nanny state, always telling me what I can’t do,” he retorted.

I wondered whether he’d be the same sort of individual who’d likely have a sufficiently grand sense of entitlement to permit himself to dump a whole box of unused straws into the Strait of Georgia, just to stick it to the authorities who’d dare tell him that enough is enough with our massive dumps of plastics into our oceans.

This way, he would figuratively be giving the middle finger to any new government rules.

No wonder so much plastic waste eventually finds its way into our life-filled oceans, where there are few, if any, caring souls to see it.

A 12-year-old boy was arrested in Cloverdale early Thursday evening after the Surrey RCMP responded to a report of a youth allegedly threatening another youth with a knife.

The incident happened at a park in the 17200-block of 61A Avenue, Sgt. Chad Greig told Black Press Media.

“Witnesses who observed the incident followed and detained the suspect youth until police arrived, who then arrested the 12-yearold suspect,” Greig said.

The boy was later released into his parents’ custody and the investigation is ongoing, he added.

“No persons were physically injured in the occurrence.”

Only one per cent of British Columbians will be paying a speculation and vacancy tax, according to the B.C. government.

Based on declarations received so far from homeowners, a majority of those who will be paying the tax are foreign owners, satellite families and Canadians living outside of B.C., a news release issued Friday states.

Exemption forms must be submitted by the end of May and can be completed online or by phoning 1-833-554-2323.

The forms must be filled out by property owners who have homes or extra properties in regions where the taxes are in effect. Every homeowner must register to opt out of the 0.5-per-cent tax.

Those who are not exempt have until July 2 to pay their assessed amount.

The property tax applies to Metro Vancouver, Greater Victoria, and the municipalities of Nanaimo, Lantzville, Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Mission, Kelowna and West Kelowna.

Surrey janitor Vito Halasan is $7 million richer, but he won’t quit his job – although he does intend to scale back his hours.

He matched all six numbers on his Lotto 6/49 ticket to win the $7 million jackpot in the April 27 draw, only a few days after celebrating his 58th birthday.

“I remember scanning my ticket and seeing all these numbers,” the happy janitor said in a BCLC release.

“I have really blurry vision so I had to hold the ticket right up to my face. I couldn’t believe it.”

Halasan called his daughter in a panic after realizing his big win.

“He sat me down at the table,” stated the woman, who is not named in the BCLC release. “And then he whispered really quietly to me that he won $7 million dollars. I didn’t believe him. We had to check online several times.”

With three kids and four grandchildren, Halasan’s goal is to give his family the life they’ve dreamed of since moving to Canada from the Philippines in 2009.

“I buy lottery tickets so I can dream,” Halasan said in the release. “I dream of being able to take care of my kids and make their future better. Now we’ll be able to buy a nice house for my children and grandchildren.”

executive of Edmontonbased waste hauler GFL Environmental Services told The Globe and Mail.

This ‘ship it to Asia’ dodge is one way to explain the conclusions of a German study on plastic contamination in oceans. It found that 90 per cent of it comes from 10 rivers in Asia and Africa, with the Yangtze in China being by far the worst. The rest, and most damaging, is mainly lost or abandoned commercial fishing gear.

Then there was the Danish study that showed a cotton grocery bag has to be used more than 7,000 times to make it more environmentally sound than a plastic bag used once for groceries, once to line a wastebasket and then incinerated.

B.C. recycling programs are also cracking down on glass and other marginal commodities. One of the most efficient things to recycle is newsprint, and the B.C. government managed to make a mess of that by forcing newsprint producers into a broader system so they can subsidize uneconomic materials.

The best solution to all of this is a functional waste system with recycling, and public education about cleaning and sorting materials. Don’t hold your breath.

Saddle bronc score highlights rodeo A

little rain couldn’t dampen the spirits – or the scores – of the contestants in the Cloverdale Rodeo final Monday afternoon (May 20).

Bareback bronc rider Caleb Bennett earned the highest score of the day with a 93.5-point ride on Sundance Kid, sending him home with $20,000 and a tie for the top bareback ride the Cloverdale Rodeo area has ever seen.

This was Bennett’s third time winning the top prize at the Cloverdale Rodeo for bareback riding.

For bull rider Sage Kimzey, it was not only his first time getting the $45,000 prize, but also his first time at the invitational rodeo.

Apparently, according to a text received up in the announcer’s booth from Kimzey’s girlfriend, his cat had been watching his ride via the livestream.

Most bull riders weren’t as lucky as Kimzey, with half being bucked off before the eightsecond mark. Although Parker McCowan stayed on for the full eight seconds, and had

Mitch Pollock, with a 91-point ride, and barrel racer Shelby Spielman, who beat former champion Callahan Crossley by two one-hundredths of a second with a 15.901-second ride.

Major University seeks participants for national hearing study.

Connect Hearing and Professor Mark Fenske at the University of Guelph are seeking participants who are over 50 years of age, have never worn hearing aids and have not had a hearing test in the last 24 months, for a hearing study that investigates factors that can influence better hearing.

Study Parameters The researchers will examine listening in a range of situations, from one-on-one, to group conversations, watching TV and wider social contexts like supermarkets and other noisy environments, and how it effects connection and socialization.

Why Participate?

It is estimated that 46% of people aged 45 to 87 have some degree of hearing loss, but most do not seek a solution right away. In this study you’ll be playing an important part in determining the key factors around identifying hearing loss and what influences the decision to seek treatment.

Winners store will anchor Semiahmoo Shopping Centre Aaron Hinks Staff reporter

Coast Realty has confirmed a number of businesses that are to be included in the Semiahmoo Shopping Centre expansion.

First Capital Realty senior vice-president of development Jodi Shpigel told Peace Arch News May 15 that the confirmed businesses include Winners, a gym called Crunch Fitness and a daycare called Rothewood.

Shpigel said First Capital is still in the process of formalizing additional businesses that are to take space in the former Zellers, which is attached

to Semiahmoo Shopping Centre. The building has been vacant since 2014.

In 2012, the Semiahmoo Zellers was one of the shopping centre’s anchor stores, and one of just 64 Zellers, out of 243 nationwide, not sold to U.S.based retailer Target. At that time, parent-company HBC told PAN that the location would either be shut down or re-branded under a different name.

Target Canada ultimately filed for bankruptcy in January 2015.

Then, after announcing in early 2013 that Semiahmoo Zellers would close that March, HBC reversed course and announced the store would remain

open as a liquidator for Hudson’s Bay and Home Outfitters.

However, the store was closed in March after a mattress display caught fire in an incident Surrey Fire Service initially deemed suspicious, but later said was “not deliberate.”

It reopened in June of that year, as one of only three stores to bear the Zellers logo, but closed the following year.

“We’re very excited that we’ve been able to find such high-quality tenants for that end of the shopping centre. We believe they will re-anchor what was formally the Zellers,” Shpigel told PAN.

Program to help seniors get home safely after hospital stay

PAH, Sources on lookout for drivers Aaron Hinks Staff reporter

Sources Community Resources Society and the Peace Arch Hospital have put out a call for volunteers to help isolated seniors get home after a stay at the hospital.

According to a news release issued Thursday, the Hospital to Home program, operated out of the hospital for the past three years, re-

quires volunteers to transport seniors and isolated community members home after they are discharged from PAH. Volunteers may also be requested to drive the patient to additional locations, including the Sources White Rock/South Surrey Food Bank, Red Cross equipment loan or the pharmacy. Once the patient arrives at their home, the Seniors Come

Share Society will provide followup phone calls to offer additional support, the release notes.

“This is an opportunity for volunteers to close that gap in providing holistic health care in ensuring seniors return home safely and have access to supports needed to live independently. We need our community’s help to keep the program operating continuously and to keep

our community connected,” Sources volunteer manager Carrie Belanger said in the release.

Volunteers of the Hospital to Home program work in pairs and no medical training is needed.

Volunteers with or without vehicles are encouraged to apply.

PROFESSIONALS ON THE SMIAHMOO PENINSULA Reap the benefits of physical therapy

Recovering from incidents that can impact mobility and range of motion takes time, but physical therapy can help the body acclimate to regular activity once more. Physical therapy also can help healthy people as well.

Injuries have the potential to sideline people for weeks, months or permanently. Injury to the body can occur when participating in organized sports, fitness regimens or even after being in an accident.

Recovering from incidents that can impact mobility and range of motion takes time, but physical therapy can help the body acclimate to regular activity once more. Physical therapy also can help healthy people as well.

Those who have suffered a sprain or a broken bone or even spent a duration of time immobile in the hospital due to an illness are often prescribed physical therapy as part of their follow-up treatment.

Physical therapy programs try to progressively increase strength, improve mobility and help the body return to a state where it can function as best as possible. In many cases, a person can regain his or her original capabilities.

A physical therapist is a trained and licensed medical professional who has the experience to diagnose physical abnormalities, restore physical function and mobility, maintain that function, and promote proper form for future activity. Physical therapy sessions can take place in hospitals, rehabilitation centres, fitness settings, private practices, and much more.

Not only can physical therapists react to and treat an injury, but they can also teach exercises, stretches and techniques to help prevent problems in the first place. Experts indicate that physical therapy extends beyond disabled or injured people. Physical therapists can educate a person on weaknesses in the body and can guide correction on poor body mechanics that cause pain. This way a person can make changes to prevent future pain and injury. Rather than being reactionary, healthy individuals can take a proactive approach to avoiding pain and injury.

When one opts for physical therapy, he or she may: · undergo a physical exam and evaluation of pain, movement, flexibility, and performance · receive a clinical diagnosis and plan of care

OCEAN PARK MASSAGE THERAPY CLINIC

· establish long-term goals · participate in physical therapy treatment, which may include stretching, movement and weight-bearing activities based on the therapist’s guidance · be given at-home work to further progress in between sessions.

While physical therapy can be used for recovery from strokes or paralysis, injuries, trauma, and musculoskeletal conditions, it also benefits healthy people. For example, women can use physical therapy to learn exercises that may prevent pelvic floor dysfunction.

In addition, physical therapy can teach people how to improve their balance and prevent falls.

When people hear about physical therapy, they tend to think it is for people with injuries. While physical therapists can help heal injured parts of the body, physical therapy continues to evolve to assist with overall wellness.

Ecological diversity. And the chance to strike gold! Camp close to Cariboo gold rush towns. Ride the range with Chilcotin cowboys. View grizzlies, moose and goats near Bella Coola. Come see why the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast is a Land Without Limits. No limits on the views.

No limits to adventure. No limits on the life-changing experiences. (And, happily, no need to reserve months in advance!)

Canim (means “canoe” in the local First Nations language) Lake lies just 35 kilometres northeast of 100 Mile House (or “Hundred Mile” as the locals call it). Wildflower-carpeted meadows, waterfalls and ancient petroglyphs can be found nearby.

The haunting bird-call of the loon across a still mountain lake is as Canadian as camping gets, and could there possibly be a better place than Loon Lake to experience it? (And loons aren’t the only birdlife; bald eagles, hawks, swans, woodpeckers and even herons are regular visitors). Campgrounds and cabins abound on this clear, deep lake. Lots of boats, canoes and kayaks to rent, with even paddle boats for the kids.

From Google Earth, Quesnel Lake looks like an ocean fjord dropped from the sky. Carved by glaciers that ground their way out of the Cariboo Mountains eons ago, Y-shaped Quesnel Lake splits into multiple arms. Camping options range from plush RV resorts to hidden forest service road sites, with tons of secret beaches and coves to boat or kayak to.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Desiree Dawson White Rock and South Surrey fans of 2016 CBC Searchlight winner and Earl Marriott grad Desiree Dawson – who still retains strong ties to the Semiahmoo Peninsula – will welcome the opportunity to hear her perform live Saturday, May 25, from 7 p.m. at the Kingfisher Farm Market barn concert at 512 172 St. Well-known for her soulful folk sound, Dawson is equally adept at captivating audiences with her own ukulele accompaniment, a full band or an electronic dance track.

Since winning the Searchlight contest, Dawson released a debut album, Wild Heart, to popular acclaim – three singles, the title track, Where Do We Go and Hide, all spent time in the CBC top-20 chart, and the latter made it to number 31 of the CBC’s top 100 songs of 2017.

A 2018 single, Just Fine, also spent a good deal of time climbing the CBC top-20 chart and was also featured as one of the CBC’s top 100 songs of the year.

Dawson, who has appeared at the CBC Music Festival in Toronto, and toured the U.S. and Germany, still makes regular appearances in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland, including the Surrey Fusion Fest. She has also been invited to perform at this year’s Vancouver Folk Festival in July.

Among work on display will be paintings by poet/artist Veronica Newell, including a dynamic depiction of a crow; African flowers by Caroline Baasch; and symbolic paintings in various media by Dianne Cuzner.

Also featured will be whimsical paintings by children’s book illustrator Sandy Gagnon; romantic figurative studies by Norm Carriere, and jewelry by June Bloye, inspired by the culture of Arizona and the turquoise/ malachite conglomerate stone of the region.

Artists will be present throughout the show.

Open hours will be 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Saturday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday. The centre is located at 14601 20 Ave.

Q: A:

Do I need a specialist in the particular area I want to buy or sell in?

At the Real Estate office, we often get asked ‘for the person who specializes in...”. It may be condo sales, high-end houses or manufactured homes. As Licensed BC REALTORS®, we are qualified to sell any type of residential real estate.

Interestingly, fate often steers us in specific directions. Some of us tend to work for the elderly and first time buyers. Others Diane Thompson fall into the area of high-end properties. My suggestion, RealtoR interview a few different Realtors that are associated with the market you are interested in and if they have work on before.

If you are intending to buy out of area, ask a local REALTOR if they can refer you to someone who is familiar with the area you wish to move to. I actively refer and promote the use of local REALTORS, who know and are involved with their local community. Remember - you are hiring a REALTOR to work for you. Ask for a resumé, take the time to interview this future employee, see how involved in the community they are.

Selling or finding you a new home is the goal, but knowing the community is extremely valuable.

Q: A:

Private Wealth Management

Why my pet is urinating inside the house?

House-soiling is a very common problem of our canine/feline friends.

Many pets are abandoned, adopted away, or even put to sleep due to this problem. Even though there could be behavioural issues, which can lead to inappropriate urination, there are also multiple medical conditions that can cause this.

Bladder infections can happen in pets of any age group, cleanliness of the litterbox and the perineal area of the pet can play a big role. Bladder stones, more common in female cats than in male cats, can happen to any cat. Metabolic conditions that lead to excessive water consumption like diabetes or kidney disease. Arthritis, usually an older pet problem, often will have issues squatting down or walking properly at the same time. Bladder tumours aren’t as common but still something to take into consideration in older pets, especially if they are straining to urinate and/or have bloody urine.

What should be the approach to treatment?

Retirement Residence

Do I Choose From the Q: How Multitude of Retirement Homes?

A: Finding the right Retirement Home can be overwhelming:

• How do you choose which ones to visit; • What are the key questions to ask;

You are not alone in feeling overwhelmed. Most people have fears around change and making a move is a big change. It is important to have your questions and concerns addressed - don’t feel rushed into making a decision.

There are many options available today. The majority of Retirement Homes are owned and operated by large companies that have multiple communities and you will find that the services offered are all similar. But what makes any place feel like home is not the size, décor or even amenities. People are what make us feel welcomed and accepted. Home should be the place where you feel safe and secure - a place that encourages you to be yourself.

Concord Retirement Residence is a uniquely small, intimate and privately owned community. We offer a different experience from the larger places.

We feel that each individual is an integral part of our “family”. As a family we support one another whether it be with additional help when needed, sincere interest in what’s happening in your day, a hug, an encouraging smile or a shared joke for much needed laughter. In such a small community we share the highs and the lows - you are not alone.

Feline Behaviourist my cat’s Q: Are hairballs normal?

One common myth we hear as A: veterinarians is that it is normal for cats to have hairballs. This is completely false. Cats groom themselves by licking their fur, and some of that fur gets swallowed. In normal cats (even long-haired cats), this fur should pass easily out Laura Omeljaniuk of the stomach and through the intestines. When DVM there is a problem with the digestive tract, catswill vomit or regurgitate and coincidentally produce what we see as a hairball. Just like any other vomiting, this is a sign that your cat is ill and needs medical attention. Some common illnesses that cause this include inflammatory bowel disease, parasitism, food allergies, and sometimes cancer. After diagnosing the cause of vomiting (hairballs), treatment ranges from a diet change to various medications, and will result in your cat being happier and more comfortable. When your veterinarian asks you if your cat has ever vomited, make sure to tell her about hairballs!

How Much Will I Spend in Retirement?

There is no one answer that works for everyone.

You can get a general idea by starting with what you spend now and then subtract expenses that will end in retirement.

Will your mortgage or any other loans be paid off?

Regular retirement savings will typically stop Any child expenses may be gone once the kids are gone Will you go down to one vehicle?

Any savings from not working?

Will you downsize?

Laura Chanin, CFP® Investment Advisor

And then figure out what additional expenses you’ll have in retirement. For example, you’ll have extra time and how you spend your extra time may end up costing you money: • Travel • Hobbies • Will you need to continue to help support your adult children?

• What additional medical expenses you will have.

This should give you a rough idea of your costs. Often in retirement there are 3 phases: • Very active and spend more ‘go/go’ • When people’s health and energy begins to wane ‘slow/go’ • Last phase of life when people are mostly at home, as their health prevents them from being active. ‘no/go’ 203https://www.rightdirectionfinancial.ca - 3237 King George Boulevard Right Direction Financial/HollisWealth® www.rightdirectionfinancial.ca This information has been prepared by Laura Chanin who is an Investment Advisor for HollisWealth®.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Years after arriving in Surrey as a refugee, Ali Zohar is preparing for NCAA

Scholarship ‘exciting’ for rising soccer star Tom Zillich Black Press Media

A

li Zohar has had about a month to let it all sink in – that he’ll be off to a place called Highland Heights, Ky., to play soccer this fall.

The Surrey resident recently earned a fullride scholarship to play with the University of Northern Kentucky’s men’s team, which won the NCAA Division II national championship a decade ago and is now looking to Zohar to strengthen its midfield.

“It was an exciting moment for me,” Zohar, 18, said of the scholarship, which was announced in mid-April.

“I’ll go there in the summer, in July, for training. I already went for a visit there, so I saw the campus. It’s really nice.”

Zohar’s path to university sports began in Bangladesh, a country he and his family fled to come to Canada as refugees in 2009.

He began playing soccer a couple years later, at Adam Day age 10, after watching his coach older brothers play the game in the South Asian country.

“I went to a lot of their games,” Zohar recalled.

“I already had a passion for soccer growing up, and in Canada I got a chance to play.

“I loved playing it right away.”

He started with the BC Tigers and Central City Breakers soccer organizations, then moved on to South Surrey-based Coastal FC and Surrey United premier-league squads before joining the Whitecaps FC preresidency program in September of 2014.

That same year, as a 14-year-old, Zohar made his debut with the Canadian youth program.

A bio posted to whitecapsfc.com says Zohar is a fan of Spanish juggernaut Real Madrid.

“One day, the midfielder hopes to play at Real Madrid’s home stadium, Santiago Bernabeu,” the bio reads. “As far as his career goes, Zohar hopes to be able to play at the professional level. Outside of soccer, one of Zohar’s favourite pastimes is playing street hockey.”

At Hjorth Road Park this spring, Zohar is helping coach younger players with Guildford Athletic Club, where his former

“He was with Coastal, and I joined there because of him, and then he moved to Surrey (United) and so I moved there, too.”

Though soccer will be his focus at university, Zohar also plans to get an education in Kentucky.

“I’m going to do something in criminal justice, maybe a cop kind of thing,” Zohar said.

“It’s not just about soccer for me, because I want to get an education as well. If soccer doesn’t work out, I will learn some things.…

I’m going to take a coaching course in university as well.”

Registration has opened for this summer’s BC Superweek cycling series – which includes the Tour de White Rock.

Organizers made the announcement last week, inviting pro and amateur cyclists alike to sign up for the series, which is to run July 5-14. Superweek includes the Tour De Delta, New West Grand Prix, Gastown Grand Prix, Giro di Burnaby, PoCo Grand Prix and the White Rock event, which will cap the week on July 13-14.

“Year over year, BC Superweek continues to grow and is now one of the most recognized professional road-race series in the world,” said series director Mark Ernsting.

BC Superweek features seven criteriums and two road races, one of which is UCI-sanctioned for both men and women.

More than $140,000 in prize

The Tour de White Rock – which begins with a criterium race in uptown White Rock on Saturday and wraps with a Sunday morning road race – is

also one of the most popular events of the week, with fans lining Marine Drive and other parts of the city to take in the action.

MITCHELL, Peggy Cordelia Peggy Cordelia Mitchell was gathered into the arms of the Lord this day, May 9, 2019.

Peggy had an indomitable spirit, fighting to the end to retain her independence, despite painful mobility challenges and failing health as she aged. Predeceased by her husband Alexander (Sandy) Mitchell, her oldest son Peter in his childhood and her youngest son Stephen at age 23. She married Sandy in England during WW2 and immigrated to Canada at the war’s end, accompanying him through his extensive career in the Army (RCR) which took them to many postings across Canada and back to Europe before his final posting in Vancouver. Peggy was a talented seamstress, sewing exquisite ball gowns for formal Mess dinners and later provided beautiful clothes for Christy during her teenage years.

In the late 1980’s Peggy moved to Ocean Park near White Rock. When she moved to Berwick in Comox at age 95, she found it very difficult to leave “her little house� that she loved for over 25 years. She spent her last few months at Eagle Park in Qualicum Beach. The family gives warm thanks to all the staff who helped her in both residences and also many thanks to Dr. Dustin Falk, who looked after her with great attention and kindness while she was in his care.

Peggy was an excellent cook who welcomed many of her children’s friends for Sunday dinners well into their adult years. She courageously went to work at age 50, in order to gain some financial independence and to provide extras for her children. At age 97, Peggy outlived her sisters Hilda & Katherine and most of her friends. She was widowed before age 60 yet undertook this life challenge with positive action. She learned how to play Bridge & Mahjong so she would gain new friends and she learned how to swim, simply because she had, “never learned properly!� She also traveled extensively; yet her favourite trip was always back to Brighton, England, where she was born and raised. She is survived by her loving daughter Christine (Roger) her beloved granddaughters Elysia (Elliott) and Lauren and her treasured great-granddaughter EllaRaye. When we celebrated Peggy’s 97th birthday last July, she said, “This is lovely, but I don’t want to see 98.� She said that it was time to go to ‘the great Martini Bar in the sky.’ We hope that the bartender will make it for her just the way she likes it, with a lemon wedge and 2 ice cubes.
