Kam Grewal, the city’s general manager of finance, revealed in a corporate report that came before council on Monday, July 27, concerning the budgetary shortfall, or “unfavourable variance in program revenues,” that the $12.5 million difference now forecast is made up by $1 million in “higher than budgeted” traffic fine revenue, $2.9 million in Continued on A7

Tenacious Mountie returns family’s 113-year-old heirloom Christening gown worn by 59 people since 1907 was stolen from porch after FedEx delivery Tom Zytaruk tom.zytaruk@surreynowleader.com

A

fresh new chapter in the storied saga of a 113-year-old white lace christening gown has a cheerful ending thanks to the tenacity of a Surrey Mountie who returned the stolen heirloom late Saturday night to a grateful Whalley family.

Nathanael Powell, 34, said his great aunt in Newfoundland had been the “keeper of the dress” and would actually travel with it when duty called, but she died a couple of years ago. With Powell’s son James, who is almost two months old, set to be christened on Aug. 9, Powell’s dad’s cousin sent it to him by FedEx from Ontario.

The gown was originally worn by Powell’s great grandmother in 1907, in Newfoundland.

“It was created for her. It’s been worn subsequently by all of her children, and all of her children’s children, and now even the next generation, with my kids. To date, 59 people have been christened or baptized in it.

“It arrived on Thursday but I didn’t know at the time that it had arrived. Somebody stole it,” Powell explained. “She contacted me on Friday to say, ‘Hey, did you get it?’”

Powell said he asked a neighbour if he’d seen the package. The neighbour checked his surveillance camera footage, which captured the delivery and theft.

The footage revealed the package had been stolen 20 minutes after it was delivered to Powell’s front porch, by a thief who was wearing a reflective vest, carrying a clipboard, and had pulled up to Powell’s home in a van.

“I checked my own camera and I actually got a decent picture of the guy and the car and the whole scene, so I called police and a constable came out,” Powell said.

“This would have been on Saturday, so the theft was Thursday. I didn’t realize it until Friday night but Saturday morning the police came out. I want to give a ‘shout out’ to the Surrey RCMP because this constable is fantastic. Very sympathetic.”

Constable Brenden Vogt, the hero of this story, said he found the package ditched inside a forest, about 20 feet off the roadway.

“I found this FedEx box, it didn’t look too, too beat up,” he said. “Holy cow, I looked inside the box and lo-and-behold, the dress was still inside.”

A quick look at some of the news in the community you might have missed. Send your news items to edit@ surreynowleader.com Jamie Bacon’s sentencing hearing has been rescheduled for Aug. 28 after he pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to murder Corey Lal in the 2007 Surrey Six case and to one count of counselling to commit murder in a separate case involving the shooting of a man who survived an attack in 2008.

Mission RCMP say one person has died and another has been injured following a small plane crash near Stave Lake on Monday evening.

The federal and provincial governments have pledged $4.9 million to help local sports organizations return to play amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

BC Ferries says to expect multiple sailing waits, suggesting reservations, travelling at night or taking alternate routes, due to the B.C. Day long weekend.

A southern resident orca, who was known for carrying her dead calf for nearly three weeks, is pregnant again, say researchers.

A man who tied a wounded, emaciated dog to a tree and left it in a remote area of an island off Vancouver Island has been banned from animal ownership for life.

Whalley’s Nathanael Powell holds his family’s 113-year old christening gown that was returned after a thief stole it from his front porch just minutes after it was delivered in a FedEx package. (Submitted photo) Vogt’s safari didn’t scratch him up too badly. He said he had to give his boots “a nice little polish” before his next shift, “and that’s about it.”

The Surrey Mountie had already drawn local praise in 2019 headlines after he pulled over in his patrol car to shoot some impromptu hoops with neighbourhood kids who were playing basketball near Bear Creek Park.

Corporal Elenore Sturko noted that Vogt “spent a lot of time” on the stolen gown file, “actually, extra time.

“It was past his shift and he was still looking through the bushes because he wanted to try to find it for the family. He was determined to find the dumped package and so he went through the bushes on Old Yale, west of 128. And not long after that, he returned it to the family.”

Powell praised the constable’s effort.

“It sounds like a bit of a wild goose chase,” he said.

“We ended up posting to Facebook, hop-

ing that somebody in the city would see it or know something. I guess a fellow who works at an impound lot recognized the van that got pulled in there. So that info was given to police, and he was able to follow that lead and at 10 p.m. he came back to our house and had the gown in hand.

“There was a caterpillar on it, and a couple of leaves in the box. I think it must have been tossed out. A bit of minor cleaning, my mom’s going to take care of that.”

Powell said the precious gown was “literally down the street’ from his place.

“I guess the guy realized it’s not worth anything, you know, any money, and he must have tossed it out the window or something.

“We’re just thrilled,” he said. “This is a great piece of family history that maybe I took for granted before, but man, like I’m going to be so pleased to have him wear it on his baptism.

“Maybe this will be kept in a family safe or something for now.”

B.C. RCMP have arrested a man who allegedly jumped the US.-Canada border and floated down a river naked.

A veteran has escaped jail time after a Greater Victoria judged ruled that the 60-year-old man’s post-traumatic stress disorder led him to child porn.

A GoFundMe has been set up to help a family send the body of their loved one, 22-year-old Manpreet Singh, back to India after he drowned in Cultus Lake over the weekend.

ENGAGE 2020 property tax

Major industrial companies alarmed at hikes Surrey Board of Trade is calling for a review Tom Zytaruk tom.zytaruk@surreynowleader.com

The Surrey Board of Trade is crying foul as Surrey’s Class 4 major industrial businesses are taking it on the chin with withering property tax increases under the city’s 2020 budget.

One of those businesses impacted is the Teal-Jones Group, headquartered in Port Kells.

A family-run business with roughly 500 employees in Surrey alone, it’s been operating since the 1960s and is one of the biggest private sector employers in this city.

Gerrie Kotze, the lumber company’s vice-president and chief financial officer, said its property tax increase is “astronomical.”

With an increase at 190 per cent, he said, it “close to tripled.”

“Just on the City of Surrey property tax increase,” he said. “There are other things on that notice from other jurisdictions. But just on the Surrey tax increase, triple of what it

Gerrie Kotze, vice-president and chief financial officer for Teal-Jones Group. (Submitted photo) was.

“Initially we just thought it was a mistake because, with that type of increase,” he said.

“It wasn’t.”

Kotze said his company “would have expected some kind of notice, or discussion or consultation” from the city.

But it didn’t.

He maintains this tax hike is “quite unfair,” particularly during a pandemic.

Harry.Bains.MLA@leg.bc.ca Bruce.Ralston.MLA@leg.bc.ca

Jinny.Sims.MLA@leg.bc.ca

Surrey Board of Trade CEO Anita Huberman has called for a “City of Surrey Class 4 Tax Review.”

“Surrey has the greatest number of manufacturers in BC,” she noted, “but these insurmountable tax increases on top of preCOVID-19 and during COVID-19 induced economic slowdown has the potential to push these businesses out of Surrey, compromising Surrey’s growth and economic prosperity.

The City of Surrey has a leadership opportunity for their fiscal 2021 budget to enhance our assets and assist in job creation, not tax increases.”

Huberman noted that Surrey’s 2020 financial plan, revealed last December, set the annual residential property tax at 2.9 per cent for an average single-family dwelling.

She said there was “no consultation on proposed tax rates with the business community” leading up to the 2020 financial plan and that the 2020 tax increase is “unfairly weighted” against Surrey’s manufacturing sector.

“On June 30, we sent a letter to mayor and council requesting our elected officials sit with affected parties and discuss a mutually beneficial path forward. We received a response from one City of Surrey councillor and a City of Surrey staff person.

“We urge the City to reconsider the Class 4 tax increase on major industry,” Huberman said, calling it “unfairly punitive during the best of times.”

Considering the impact the COVID-19 pandemic has had on businesses this year, she said, the tax hike creates an especially “heavy burden” for local businesses to bear.

“We therefore ask the city to reduce the Class 4 tax increase,” Huberman said.

Meantime, Councillor Brenda Locke noted the 2.9 per cent increase for residential taxes “is not what it ended up to be, it’s significantly more and it’s different for different households for sure.

“There isn’t anybody that only got a 2.9 per cent increase. That’s only the city taxes, that doesn’t include all the additional increased fees like the add-on for Metro Vancouver and so on.”

“I think this is a time when we should be reviewing all of our taxes right now,” Locke said. “Certainly everybody needs to be looking closely at their money. The provincial government has recommended to cities to do that, because COVID has impacted us so tremendously that we need to be more sensitive to not only households but to businesses too, there’s no doubt about it.”

We expect There is also, from the corporate services department, $2.2 million as we finish in “higher than forecasted” revenue compared to the first-quarter forethe year we cast “due to stronger revenues from will even be business licenses.”

Mayor Doug McCallum noted below that Surrey is Canada’s 12th largest city figure. It’s a and that he sits on the Big City Mayors’ Caucus. tremendous “All of the cities are not meeting their budgets” during the pandemic, achievement. he said. “I can tell you of all the big Doug McCallum cities across Canada, that we’re the lowest amount that’s losing money.”

McCallum said Surrey has encour“Because we’ve been able to drive aged developers to continue building that figure down to $29.6 million we during the pandemic. In fact, city will not be dipping into the Green council during Monday’s land use Fund at all for picking up or for savmeeting approved $692 million in development projects, with industri- ings any money.”

Councillor Laurie Guerra said it’s al warehouses, residential highrises, “absolutely fantastic” how Surrey’s rental apartments and townhouses revenue forecasts are projected “to among them. be so much better.

McCallum said some of those “I just want to say that I’m really projects given the green light to proproud of the mayor, us councillors ceed “are along the corridor of the and staff especially in terms of what new Surrey-Langley SkyTrain extension and they align with council’s we’ve done to fare through this unprecedented pandemic,” she said.

other in these times.”

Councillor Linda Annis said the $1 million in traffic fines collected by the RCMP should go toward public safety programs. She noted Parks and Recreation’s forecasted $3 million in higher revenue comes “as a result of keeping our facilities closed beyond what was mandated by the provincial health authorities.”

Annis said she’d like to see recreation facilities, including swimming pools and ice arenas, “get opened in a phased and responsible manner, but I think we need to be doing it sooner as opposed to later.”

As for the policing transition budget, Annis noted “all of our programs in all of the other departments were hit hard. I’d like us to give some consideration to spreading the pain throughout the whole organization, not just selected ones.”

Councillor Brenda Locke also took aim at the transition from the RCMP to a city police force.

“If we’re not opening up ice arenas for kids, we should also be looking at pulling back on the transition, even just a little bit.”

Councillor Jack Hundial’s comments were not as “cheerful,” he said, as some others.

“Look, we had to lay off almost 2,000 people to achieve this,” he noted. “We had to cut back our own library budget by $5 million, which is one quarter of its entire budget as we’re doing this. Certainly our facilities have saved money by being closed. To me, one of our core responsibilities as a city is to try to keep the civic facilities, keep the basics open.

“Let’s not forget,” Hundial said, “that this money that we’re saving, it’s actually taxpayer money. People pay money into this city to use the facilities, to have good roadways.

“Let’s also not forget that we’ve got four more months left in this year, and we don’t know what the final number is going to be yet,” he said. “There may be a second wave coming as well. Before we get too cheery, we need to be mindful of the average person out there who is not making the wages we are.”

DEBATE

Published by: Black Press Ltd. at 102 - 5460 152 St., Surrey, B.C. V3S 5J9

Our view

‘Unfavourable’ indeed W ords, when used properly, convey ideas clearly, simply and truthfully.

When they are not, victims of war become “casualties,” or “collateral damage.”

“Negative patient outcome” replaces a death. Prisons become “correctional facilities,” and dying family pets are not destroyed but are instead “put to sleep.”

In Surrey’s case, a budget shortfall, or deficit, is now an “unfavourable variance in program revenues.” (See story, front page).

George Orwell, in his essay Politics and the English Language, writes that “the

fight against bad English is not frivolous and is not the exclusive concern of professional writers.”

It indeed concerns us all.

To illustrate his point, Orwell takes this passage from Ecclesiastes – “I returned and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all” – and puts it into “modern” English: “Objective considerations of contemporary phenomena compel the conclusion

that success or failure in competitive activities exhibits no tendency to be commensurate with innate capacity, but that a considerable element of the unpredictable must invariably be taken into account.”

Yikes. Orwell wrote that in 1946. Seventy-four years ago.

Have we since improved our quest for clarity in language, and therefore, thought?

We have not, but must.

Unless of course, “unfavourable variance in program revenues” really is preferable to deficit, or budget shortfall.

Publisher: Dwayne Weidendorf

However, since education is a provincial responsibility and each of the 60 school districts in B.C. also set important policies within their jurisdictions, it would be prudent at this time for those in senior local and provincial leadership positions to review what safeguards they have in place.

For example, if teachers own or manage a business instead of a charity, is it appropriate for them to hire current students whom they might still be teaching?

Similarly, if a teacher either owns or is paid by a club sports team, is it ethical for that teacher to either recruit or financially benefit from their own students? Clearly, in both situations either a real or apparent conflict of interest would take place.

In addition to the practice of recruiting for money, the WE Char-

ity may also have involved a more subtle but equally questionable practice: recruiting for partisan purposes or ideology.

For example, if the founders of WE, Marc and Craig Kielburger, have close political ties to Justin Trudeau and the Liberal Party, that is their right, but did anyone tell the kids before they joined? And if teachers start encouraging or recruiting students to join politically active organizations, even if they aren’t paid to do this recruiting, is this really an appropriate thing to do with minors who aren’t even old enough to vote?

Of course teachers have as much right to be active in politics as any citizen, but you would think a former teacher now serving as prime minister would know better than to hold giant pep rallies full of students who might not be able

to realize that a charitable event has now become a partisan one too – unless all the party leaders were invited to take part equally, which they weren’t.

Teachers should encourage students to get involved in their community, including in civic, provincial, and national campaigns, as long as the students are pursuing their own causes or parties and not their teacher’s interests or ideology and above all else, both these students and their parents have made informed consent.

Classrooms must be centres for education, not indoctrination, or in the case of the WE Charity scandal, both indoctrination and renumeration.

spending huge sums of taxpayers’ money on setting up a city police force.

The focus must be on ensuring the optional dollars are spent where they will do the most good and certainly the many millions of dollars that a switch to a city police force is going to cost are optional dollars. There is absolutely no proven need to change at this time.

Four people charged after $200K worth of goods stolen from storage lockers

Surrey’s mayor and eight councillors raked in $1,020,072 last year in pay, car allowance, travel costs, communications and other expenses.

All together, council booked a grand total of $53,539 in conference and travel costs, $12,009 in seminar/meeting expenses, $865,160 in remuneration and indemnities, $74,060 in car allowance, and $15,304 in communications in 2019.

As might be expected, given his position, Mayor Doug McCallum topped the chart with a total bill of $186,891 for taxpayers, followed by Councillor Laurie Guerra ($109,697), Councillor Allison Patton ($109,132), Doug Elford ($108,949), Councillor Linda Annis ($108,915), Councillor Brenda Locke ($101,368), Councillor Jack Hundial ($99,739), Councillor Mandeep Nagra ($98,283), and Councillor Steven Pettigrew ($97,098).

Of the nine council members, Elford’s

conference and travel costs were the highest at $9,611 and Hundial’s were the lowest, at $330. Councillor Linda Annis had the heftiest seminar/meeting expenses bill, at $5,049, while Hundial’s was once again the lowest at $429. Annis spent the most on communications, at $1,861, and Locke the least, at $1,617.

McCallum topped the list for car allowance at $14,580, while the councillors each received $7,435.

The mayor also received $161,727 in remuneration and indemnities, followed by Hundial ($89,744), Annis and Patton ($89,773),

Guerra ($89,772), Locke ($86,555), Elford ($89,535), Pettigrew ($85,730) and Nagra ($82,521).

Council received the staff report Monday, July 27, in accordance with Section 168 of the Community Charter.

Pettigrew was the only council member to speak to it during the “virtual” council meeting.

“We’re talking about a very large amount of income that we’re pulling in here,” he said. “I just want people to know I’m very thankful for the opportunity to be here, I’m thankful that they put me in this position and I want everyone to know I take the job very seriously. I try to keep my expenses down and I treat this like a regular job – I do my best to be able to call people back and to respond to people, and I just want you to know that I’m going to continue to do my best to make wise decisions and to represent you, to be fair.

“I want this to be a better city,” Pettigrew continued. “I do understand that we work for you.”

Your hearing is important.

Take care of it.

Surrey RCMP say three people have been charged in connection with offences related to break-ins at storage locker facilities in the Lower Mainland.

On June 19, 15 charges were laid against Philip Sprentzel, Austin Jones and Magdalena Toner for break-ins in Surrey, Langley and Hope, according to a Surrey RCMP release Tuesday (July 28). Police added that as part of a joint investigation with the Calgary Police Service, 25 charges were laid against Sarah Griffin, Sprentzel and Jones for offences in Calgary.

Police said storage lockers were broken into at various facilities throughout the Lower Mainland, Kelowna and Calgary.

The estimated value of stolen items was “in excess of $200,000,” Surrey RCMP added.

“We now wish to look at different meeting on June 29. This was after governance options for SHHS to Mayor Doug McCallum decided ensure the best possible delivery to not elect a new board, during of funds and services to the coma meeting that was in-camera, or munity in Surrey,” Guerra told the closed to the public.

by SHHS over the years and at this dissolved, said at the time that the decision not to elect a new board to time all we have changed is the dithe society, which had been helping rectors.”

But Locke said she’s disappointed people since 2001, should have been council “did not appreciate” the discussed in open council. work that the volunteer board had The appointment of Councillors Laurie Guerra, Mandeep Nagra and done.

“They worked hard to ensure that Allison Patton as directors has since there was equity in how the grants been posted to the city’s website. were provided,” Locke said. “There Guerra said Surrey’s mayor and

is just about $11 million in that fund that I think we’re going to have to ensure that it goes to where it’s meant to go.”

Vancity Foundation controls the money, she noted.

“It was directed by the society but it’s held by Vancity. So they have their work to do just to try and figure out what money goes where and how much was actually the city’s money initially that went into it because of course since that time there has been money raised by the society from people in the public, from corporations, there’s been lots of money raised by various entities.”

Locke said she doesn’t know why the board was disbanded as “it was never fairly explained to either myself or to our directors. I know that the mayor wants the money controlled in house, similar to what he did with SCDC. “He said to me at the time he

wanted it similar to the Green City Fund, that’s what he said. Well, that’s a big concern to me because we’ve just seen in this last round of discussions that some of the Green City Fund money is going into covering the losses for COVID, so that’s a concern to me,” she said last week. “This money was raised very specifically to support housing and housing initiatives in Surrey.”

McCallum said Monday the city won’t be”dipping” into that fund to cover pandemic-related losses.

Nagra told the Now-Leader he needed to get “more details” before commenting on the society’s next course of action. Former Surrey mayor Bob Bose remarked that Locke was probably ejected from the board because it’s “open warfare” on city council. “To dismiss the entire board and then appoint three members of council to it, I argue, is not supported,” Bose said.

A staff member of Guildford’s Real Canadian Superstore has tested positive for COVID-19.

Loblaw Companies Limited, which owns the Superstore chain, said on its website that the employee tested positive on a “presumptive test” and that the last day the employee worked was on July 20.

The Guildford Superstore is located at 14650 104th Avenue.

The store remains open for business.

CLOVERDALE PAINT Cloverdale Paint might be a large international company, but its humble roots started right here in B.C. in 1933. Some of you will remember the barn-shaped structure on the corner of 64th and King George Boulevard (then Highway) that housed the store and years later became the first farmer’s market in Newton. In the 1950s, they moved just a few blocks away, and are one of Newton’s most established businesses, employing hundreds at their current factory and storefront at 6950 King George Boulevard.

Company co-founder Rudy Henke built a reputation offering low prices using a “Factory direct to you” philosophy. From humble beginnings on a farm near Cloverdale, B.C., they’ve grown to be Canada’s largest privately-owned, and one of North America’s largest regional manufacturers and sellers of paint products and coatings.

During the lockdowns and opening-up periods, we’ve spent a lot of time at home. We’ve already done the baking thing, planted the garden, and organized our closets.

ROCKY CYCLE

It’s time to flatten the curve by heading for the hills.

Rocky Cycle, at 7143 King George Boulevard, has been a mainstay in the Newton Area since 1981. And these days, Manager Sean is seeing a lot of people visiting the store — to get their bikes ready for some trail-blazing action, or leisurely park rolling — but for many of us, it might be the first time in a long time that we’ve decided to rediscover the joy of biking.

Group riding isn’t recommended these days, and so if you’ve decided to solo ride, make sure that your bike is in great shape..

If your bike hasn’t been maintained for a while, and you need a good tune-up before you hit the road, give Rocky Cycle a call with the brand and model of your bike. They are accepting bike repairs by appointment only at this time.

Rocky Cycle prides itself on the reputation as the best bike shop in Surrey. It stocks a complete range of bikes in a full array of sizes and types.

Whether you are looking for an urban cruiser or a passionate adventure on mountain bike, they have the expertise and knowledge to get your butt on the right seat for you. All of the bikes that they sell come with 12 months unlimited tune-ups, manufacturer warranties and experienced fitting advice.

But once you’ve made the decision to ride, you might need some help putting it on the car. Don’t risk damaging it or your vehicle. Rocky Cycle supplies reliable and safe transportation options for your vehicle to get your bike to that hidden spot to ride.

2-day solutions to get your kitchen gleaming again aS Seen on tHe Web

Get back the look you love for your cabinets, furniture and shelves GOT PEELING?

BEFORE We love the idea of a kitchen that looks as good as it works, but thinking about the dust, disruption and cost of a full-on renovation? That’s another story.

The good news is that it IS possible to get back to the cabinets and millwork you love quickly, and at a fraction of the cost of a new kitchen.

And even better news: the only prep you’ll need to do is clearing off your countertops!

“Many homeowners love the cabinets and millwork in their home, but over time, the finish has become worn or dull. They don’t want – or need – all-new cabinets, so the refinishing solution is perfect,” says Tracy Booth, owner of Gleam Guard Cabinet Refinishing, serving Surrey and the Lower Mainland region.

The key is to choose a professional with the experience to create a beautiful, lasting finish, using techniques that won’t fill the air with aggravating dust particles, says Booth, who’s been professionally refinishing cabinets for more than 30 years.

Here’s why it works: Choosing qualified refinishing professionals means you’ll get your kitchen back to the way you want it, without the cost of new cabinets – as little as $2,000 instead of $20,000 to $30,000, for example.

SponSored by: Gleam Guard Cabinet refiniSHinG | impreSS branded Content

WE’LL FIX THAT!

AFTER

GOT GREASE?

WE’LL FIX THAT!

You don’t need to remove old cabinets or replace door and drawer fronts – in fact, you don’t even need to empty your cupboards and drawers! “Our average prep time for customers is 10 minutes,” Booth says. (And if you don’t have much to clear off your countertops, it’s even less!)

The dust-free process starts with your Gleam Guard professional prepping the surface with a vigorous clean, then matching and applying the new finish. A wood floor finish provides a long-wearing result, protecting your cabinets from hazards such as water damage, grease and dust.

There’s no lengthy planning, demolition and construction period. “Our trained cabinet refinishing professionals will have your cabinets looking great and ready to go within one to two days,” Booth says.

All interior millwork can be refinished, so think beyond the kitchen to your built-in bookshelves, doors, windowsills, furniture and more. *** To learn more about bringing new life to your cabinets, visit the BBB-accredited Gleam https://gleamguardcabinetrefinishing.ca/ Book your consultation today at Guard at gleamguardcabinetrefinishing.ca. info@gleamguard.com or 604-218-7470.

Two men charged in 2019 crash Teen girl seriously hurt after SUV she was in slams into hydro pole Lauren Collins lauren.collins@surreynowleader.com

Two men have been charged after an investigation of a serious crash in Newton in 2019.

The investigation started following a single-vehicle crash in the 6300-block of 128th Street around 1:17 a.m. on July 12, 2019, according to a Surrey RCMP press release Thursday (July 16).

Police said a white BMW SUV “left the roadway and struck a hydro pole.”

A 17-year-old girl, who was a passenger in the SUV, “suffered a life-altering injury.”

The 20-year-old driver of the BMW was also taken to hospital, but had been released the same day, police said in an earlier release.

Two men have been charged in relation to this crash that happened on July 12, 2019 in Newton. (File photo: Shane Mackichan) Through the investigation, RCMP stated that a second vehicle and driver involved in the crash were identified.

Vikram Singh Grewal, 19, has been charged with dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, police said. He also has a 10-month driving prohibition, RCMP added.

Pavandeep Singh Dhaliwal, 21, has been charged with dangerous operation of a motor vehicle causing bodily harm, along with a one-year driving prohibition, accord-

ing to police.

Surrey RCMP said the two men are from Surrey.

“This collision resulted in a life-altering injury for a young woman, and has also undoubtedly impacted the lives of both of the drivers involved,” said Sergeant Ian MacLellan, of Surrey RCMP Traffic Services.

“We want to take this opportunity to remind everyone to be a responsible road user, and avoid high-risk driving behaviour.”

‘That night was so much fun’

Virtual art auction helps kids with autism

Surrey-raised comedian featured in series called ‘New Wave of Standup’

James Smith Black Press Media

Tom Zillich tom.zillich@surreynowleader.com

Matty Vu says he’s in no rush to again perform comedy in a club or other venue, given COVID-19 concerns, and that’s fine because his latest endeavour seems like a perfect fit for the pandemic.

The Surrey-raised Vu is among 12 up-and-coming Canadian comics featured in The New Wave of Standup series launched on July 17 on the free CBC Gem streaming service.

The 10-minute sets were filmed last February during JFL NorthWest, Vancouver’s Just for Laughs comedy festival.

“I haven’t seen the footage yet, so I might be terrible and have no idea,” said the soft-spoken Vu earlier this month. “I’m not even sure I’ll watch it, because I hate watching videos of myself. But I hope people watch it, and when the time comes I hope they come out to live shows because there’s no better experience than a live comedy show.”

The Edmonton-born Vu, 34, grew up in Whalley and went to Holy Cross Regional High School before studying criminology at Kwantlen Polytechnic University. He now lives in East Vancouver.

“Lover of cross stitching and the Fast and the Furious movie franchise, Matty’s ‘comedy’ style is just as indiscriminate,” a bio proclaims.

“Honestly, he’s just trying his best, and hopes you are happy with it.”

Vu said he discovered a passion for performing comedy about five years ago, and has since collected video and audio clips to post at themattyvu.com.

“I signed up for a standup class one night when I was, like, drinking and online shopping, and then I just advanced from there,” he recalled. “I had fun in the class and kept going. I had full intent of just doing the class, and that’d be it…

It was something I’d never felt or experienced before. Like, I never did drama in school or anything.

My friends weren’t really surprised because I always joked around a lot, but they were more surprised that I was OK in front of a crowd. That’s scary for a lot of people, public

Matty Vu as seen in a Youtube video posted to his website. Vu’s comedy is featured in a new series called ‘The New Wave of Standup.’ speaking.”

Comedy is a side gig for Vu, who is employed in a job related to his criminology studies.

“It’s one of those things I never talk about in comedy,” Vu said.

“It’s very separate. And at work I didn’t tell people about my comedy for years. They know now, now that more public things have been happening.”

Last summer, Vu was a semi-finalist in SiriusXM’s Top Comic competition. He didn’t earn enough online votes to win, but the experience validated his decision to enter the world of comedy.

“Sometimes I feel like I don’t belong in comedy, don’t know why – it’s like that fraud complex,” he admitted.

“I love it, it’s great,” Vu added.

“I get to interact with a bunch of people, make them laugh and bring joy, hopefully.”

Vu produces the comedy shows “Bloodfeud: Standup vs. Improv” and “Craft and the Furious” at Little Mountain Gallery, and also “Yellow Fever: A Comedy Show,” described as “Vancouver’s only comedy show by Asians for nonAsians (and also Asians). The show aims to break stereotypes and highlight comedy and culture.

“I’ve done shows for five years

and the majority of the audiences have not been very diverse,” Vu said. “In a city that has a lot of Asian people in it, it’s weird to see audiences with just white people.

There really aren’t a lot of comedy performers of colour, of Asian background, so I kind of wanted to highlight those people. I didn’t expect a lot of Asian people to come out, but it was very nice for that to happen.”

Like with other performing arts, comedy shows have been put on hold during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“There are a couple (venues) doing comedy shows again, but I am still very uncomfortable being in a crowded room, so I have no interest in doing that right now,” Vu explained. “I’ve done a few online shows — not Zoom shows but more like a friend recording me in a park and me performing to my one friend recording. That’s still fun.

“I’m OK not performing until the fall, and even if there’s a second wave or whatever, I’m OK taking a step back for even a year,” Vu added. “I’m cool with that. Maybe there’s some Catholic guilt too, about not wanting to get other people sick.”

For now, online showcases like the CBC Gem series will have to do for

Vu. “It’s a diverse group of people, which I love,” he said about the series. “That night was so much fun.

There were two shows back to back.

I was first in the lineup and I was very nervous, I remember that.”

In addition to Vu, the series also features Salma Hindy (“a Muslim comic from Toronto who also happens to be a biomedical engineer,” according to a news release), Yumi Nagashima (“who arrived in Vancouver by way of Tokyo”), Paul Rabliauskus (“from Poplar River First Nation Reserve in Manitoba”), Al Val (“a bold transgender comic from Toronto”), Ola Dada (“a Nigerian-Canadian raised in Fort McMurray, Alberta”), Toronto’s Cassie Cao (“a former economist turned stand-up comedian”), Vancouver’s Aaron Read (“who won JFL NorthWest’s ‘Breakout Artist of the Year’”), Calgary’s Brett Forte (“who is upset with his Millennial generation…and thinks audiences should be too”), Calgary’s Brittany Lyseng (“who swapped her elevator mechanic job for the comedy spotlight”), Vancouver standup and cartoonist Jacob Samuel and Toronto’s Kyle Brownrigg (“who was the first gay male to be awarded ‘Best Breakout Artist’ at the Canadian Comedy Awards”).

Reach Child and Youth Development Society is auctioning off work by Delta artists to support local children with developmental challenges.

The public can visit reachforbeauty.ca to bid on art by Delta artists Gary Nay, Michael Abraham, Yorke Graham, the South Delta Artists Guild and many others in various mediums, including paintings, prints, pottery, photography, metal and stone.

Best of all, supporters can browse the collection of items up for auction online at any time of day.

“Due to current restrictions on physical events, we have had to come up with new and creative ways to continue to fundraise. Our virtual art auction is a perfect avenue as it allows people to view and purchase inspired creations from the safety of their home while simultaneously supporting Reach,” Kristin Bibbs, development manager at Reach Child and Youth Development Society, said in a press release.

“The generosity of the participating artists has been truly extraordinary and we are excited to showcase their incredible talents.”

The Reach for Beauty: Art Auction for Autism will run until Monday, Aug. 10.

Reach Child and Youth Development Society is a non-profit charitable society that has been providing services to children and their families since 1959. Reach currently provides programs and services to over 1,000 children and their families in Delta, Surrey and Langley every year.

Pottery show to reopen Pop-Uptown Gallery Alex Browne Black Press Media

The Landmark Pop-Uptown Gallery at Central Plaza will re-open Aug. 6 with a show and sale of functional and decorative pottery.

Called Out of Hand, the exhibit – featuring the work of 16 local potters – is a joint presentation of the Semiahmoo Potters, the Fraser Valley Potters Guild and the City of White Rock.

Based in its own pottery studio at the South Surrey Recreation and Arts Centre, the Semiahmoo Potters’ mandate is to “foster, encourage and develop the art of pottery in the South Surrey and White Rock communities,” while offering opportunity for the exchange of knowledge and skills among members.

Based at the Surrey campus of Kwantlen Polytechnic University, the Fraser Valley Potters’ Guild grew out of

The mandate of the association is to promote excellence in the art and craft of ceramics, and to encourage and promote communication between members, other guilds and the public.

Back in February, White Rock’s Sue Rittinger wanted to drum up enough interest to form a women’s hockey team for the 55+ BC Games.

She ended up with enough for an entire league.

Originally, Rittinger, 61, had eight players on board to form a Zone 3 team for the Games, but needed a handful more, including a goaltender.

Through word of mouth – and, Rittinger says, the forwarding around of Black Press Media’s original article – interest grew quickly to the point where “we have enough for two teams now.”

With interest piqued, Rittinger is now taking the helm of a new league for women aged 45 and older.

The league will play out of Langley’s Twin Rinks, and according to Rittinger, as the only 45-plus league in the Lower Mainland, she has already fielded inquiries from prospective players from North Vancouver to Chilliwack.

“I knew the demand was out there… but what I was

League organizer Sue Rittinger (right) and Yvonne Johnson (left) will both be part of a new 45-plus women’s hockey league that will play out of Langley this fall. (Contributed photo) surprised was just how many players we found for the Zone 3 (BC Games) team,” she said.

The league is set to hit the ice under new COVID19 return-to-play safety protocols on Sept. 7. Games are scheduled for Monday nights, Rittinger added.

The creation of a 45-plus league is important, she said, because many women in that age bracket – whether they’re experienced players or new to the game – don’t always want to play in recreational leagues with no age restrictions.

“I’m 61, so I don’t really want to play with players who are in their 20s. It’s harder to keep up… and socially, too, you want to be around people (your own age).”

The new return-to-play protocols for recreational hockey – which were announced earlier this

summer – will apply to the new women’s league, Rittinger said.

Rittinger, who has played under the new rules already, said it’s made for a much faster, more wide-open game – and one that many others have raved about, too. She hopes the new rules encourage women to play who might otherwise have health and safety concerns.

“You really aren’t in contact with people nearly as much – it’s become a real passing game, a skating game,” she said.

“I was a little nervous at first, too, but the rule changes really make you feel safe, and some players were saying they actually prefer (the new format) to the old way.

For more information on the league, or to sign up, email Rittinger at laritz99@ telus.net
