Crash leaves pedestrian in critical condition Surrey RCMP say a pedestrian is in critical condition after a crash Monday.

A pedestrian was hit on 143 Street, between 103 and 103A avenues, according to a

release from Sgt. Sam Sanghera. It happened at around 8 p.m.

Sanghera said the pedestrian was taken to hospital, and the driver remained on

scene and is co-operating with police.

According to a Black Press Media freelancer on scene, a Dodge Caravan collided with the pedestrian. There

was “significant damage” to the van’s windshield.

There are no sidewalks on that street and the speed limit is 40 km/h.

The second-degree murder conviction of Surrey’s Lisa Batstone has been upheld.

In a decision shared Friday morning (Oct. 22) dismissing Batstone’s appeal, Court of Appeal justices found that trial judge Justice Catherine Murray did not err in concluding that the mother had intended to cause the death of her eight-year-old daughter, Teagan, when she smothered her with a plastic bag seven years ago.

Errors that did occur would not have changed the verdict, Justice Richard Goepel concludes.

Surrey Hospitals Foundation

Pilot project for stroke patients at SMH could be ‘game-changing’ Foundations helps fund injectable cardiac monitor Lauren Collins lauren.collins@surreynowleader.com

It was in February 2020 that Brendan Havisto got this “hardto-describe” feeling in his chest.

Havisto, a Surrey resident, is a mechanic with Coast Mountain Bus Company, and he was finishing up some paperwork for an inspection when he “got dizzy in my chest, just a whirling feeling inside my chest.”

“Like you would be dizzy in your head, but it was in my chest. I was focused on that, I didn’t even realize that my right arm and right leg, my whole right side was limp.”

A first-aid attendant as well, Havisto said it “didn’t even click” that he was having a stroke because his brain was so foggy.

He was only 35 at the time.

While his symptoms dissipated within five minutes, Havisto said he ended up in the hospital.

However, it wasn’t a full blockage and there was an assumption there would be no damage.

Then a few days later, he had what he calls “after-strokes, apparently what it is, is your body normalizing to the damage … so it’s a less severe version of what happened before.”

An MRI found damage, he said, but “fortunately the deficits

Brendan Havisto, second from right, had a stroke in February of 2020, leading to a series of tests, before finally taking part in a pilot project that started this week.

He’s pictured with his wife and kids (from left), Franklin, Sarah, Oliver and Alice. (submitted photo: Brendan Havisto) were not much,” but he’ll mix up words from time to time.

But also with that MRI, Havisto said they found there had been a stroke prior to this one. “I’ve had two strokes, none of which had an explanation or a cause.

The first one I didn’t even feel.”

From there, Havisto went through a “battery of tests.”

It was about a month ago that Havisto was given two different options: he could do another two-week halter monitor or he could be put on a wait list for a permanent, embedded monitor.

That wait would be about six to eight months.

Then Havisto found out he could be part of a six-month pilot project at Surrey Memorial

Hospital, following the Surrey Hospitals Foundation investing $25,000 toward Western Canada’s first injectable loop cardiac monitor.

The project is focusing on high-risk cryptogenic stroke (strokes of unknown origin) patients, using the recorders and monitoring them continuously and virtually with a specialist team. The electrocardiographic (ECG) heart-monitoring device that records heart rhythm continuously is non-invasively inserted via injection just under the skin of their chest area.

Havisto points to his three children – aged six, three and five months – as part of his reason to join the project.

“I don’t know what a third (stroke) would look like and if we don’t find a cause, I might have a third one. And having a six- to eight-month wait to get one of these embedded in a normal process, that six-to-eight months could have meant a third.”

That timing, he said, could be “game-changing.” For so many people, especially those that have had more than one stroke, those months could be “catastrophic.”

“I’ve been looking for answers for more than a year now, almost two full years and I still don’t have an answer.”

The whole process took about 45 minutes, and Havisto said he was back to “light duty” work the following day. He has a home kit, with a device plugged in on his nightstand, and from midnight to 5 a.m. it will update.

However, this isn’t brand-new technology. Dr. Tarun Sharma, the lead cardiologist at Surrey Memorial Hospital, used it before as part of his training in the United States.

The pilot project, which started on Oct. 20, is to “use it in a select population of patients where the neurologist … they suspect that there’s a stroke that they think may be coming from the heart and we haven’t been able to find the reason,” said Sharma.

The hope, he said, is that they can extend the pilot project to improve workflow and access to the device.

Surrey neighbourhood focus of ‘Mixing Middle’ contest that aims to solve urban planning issues Winning ideas will share $35,000 in cash and other prizes in Urbanarium’s competition Tom Zillich tom.zillich@surreynowleader.com

One Surrey neighbourhood is a focus of a design contest billed as a “rare opportunity for the public to help solve urban planning issues.”

The Mixing Middle competition calls for innovative mixed-use designs intended to revitalize residential areas in four Metro Vancouver communities, including a square area of Fleetwood bounded by 80 Avenue, 82 Avenue, 156 Street and 158 Street, just north of Fleetwood Park Secondary.

The other areas are in Coquitlam, North Vancouver and Vancouver.

Winning ideas will share $35,000 in cash prizes and profiles in magazines, videos, presentations to councils and municipal staff, possible demonstration projects and future commissions, according to contest planners

with Vancouver Urbanarium Society (aka Urbanarium). The fee to enter is $120 with a deadline of Nov. 2.

A question at the core of the “ideas” competition: “At a time when more people than ever are working close to home, how can we make our neighbourhoods more livable?”

All of the Mixing Middle sites are in single-family, residential-use zones.

“Some of these municipalities permit basement suites and laneway houses, but not other uses,” notes a post on themixingmiddle.ca, which includes competition details.

“The Mixing Middle is a chance to explore the possibilities of multifunctional mixed uses, such as businesses or studio spaces attached to homes. The aim is to create more vibrant neighbourhoods that meet the needs of intergenerational and multi-cultural residents by expanding the ways that people live, work, create, and caregive.”

A contest-explanation video is titled “Why Did we make Front Yard Businesses Illegal?”

“Submission guidelines are provided, but should not be viewed as strict parameters — creativity, ambition, and even the fantastical are all welcome.”

The Mixing Middle follows Urbanarium’s 2018 competition The Missing Middle, which addressed Metro Vancouver’s afford-

able-housing crisis by inviting solutions to densification challenges.

Urbanarium was founded in 1985 by a group of “committed urbanites in Vancouver, including planners, architects and others passionate about city making.” The volunteer-run organization’s mandate is “informing and engaging the residents of Metro Vancouver to help guide community decision making.”

The COVID-19 pandemic didn’t lead to the baby boom that many were anticipating, but it certainly resulted in a puppy boom.

The BC SPCA says the level of interest in adopting a dog, or any pet for that matter, has rocketed since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Nearly two years later, the demand for a family pet is still high, said SPCA communications manager Lorie Chortyk.

“We really saw an increased demand in applications for adoptions. It wasn’t that we had more animals in our care, but there was more people applying for each animal,” Chortyk said.

“We’ve been very fortunate in that our animals do find homes fairly quickly. It’s a matter of days, not months, that animals are in our care.”

Chortyk said it’s not uncommon for the SPCA to receive up to 100 applications for a puppy or small dog, as both are fairly desirable for people looking to adopt.

But it’s not just dogs that are finding new owners.

Chortyk said everything from guinea pigs to horses are being quickly re-homed.

“There are more people seeking animals. For the animals, it was a wonderful thing because more people were looking for them. I think it just really spoke to the value that animals bring to our lives. That companionship and the unconditional love,” Chortyk said.

“For many people, it was

their pet who got them through the pandemic.”

Chortyk said the SPCA has heard anecdotally that pets were particularly beneficial for people who lived alone. It gave them a bond when social networks were turned upside down, she said.

“Coming home to a place where there’s a creature there who’s waiting to greet you. Someone to talk to, even if they are not talking back. There is just so much about the relationship and the bond with animals that I think is so important to humans,” Chortyk said.

Earlier this year, news stories from the U.S. reported a new crisis of people returning so-called pandemic dogs to shelters. There are conflicting reports about whether that was ever an actual issue, but Chortyk said it’s not a problem in B.C. “We have 36 shelters across the province and we just have not seen that,” she said. “We always have a low return rate but it decreased during COVID, it didn’t increase.”

While COVID-19 has been great for dogs, it’s had some drawbacks for certain dog-related businesses.

Surrey-based Cloud Nine Canine dog daycare almost had to close down in the early days of the pandemic because pet owners who began working from home no longer required the service.

“On our end, we saw very quiet days. It’s a big shift, it was a bit of a struggle,” Cloud Nine owner Renata Iannone said.

“We stayed open because we didn’t want to close while all of the essential services were running and needing someone to watch their dogs.

We also have a lot of EMTs (paramedics) that bring their dogs, as well.”

Iannone said they secured government funding and hedged their bets there would be a puppy boom.

It paid off.

At one point, they were taking in fewer than 10 dogs a day. Since then, Iannone said, that number has increased to more than 40.

One drawback to the pandemic, Iannone said, is that many of the new dogs coming to daycare – particularly if their owner has been working from home – were showing severe signs of separation anxiety.

“We know how to work with it, but the amount of dogs, all of a sudden. I can tell what age they are and at what point they were brought home based on their anxiety. It was a lot of (younger) dogs that had really high separation anxiety.

Luckily, that whole batch has settled in,” Iannone said.

Iannone said a dog that suffers from separation anxiety can get “really panicky” when their owner leaves them.

“It can be something that makes sense, like you leave the house and you’re gone.

But it can also be things that don’t make sense, like you leave the room or they can’t see you, but you’re still in the room.

“Luckily, I think it’s on the downturn now.”

‘One Night Out’ to see fundraisers sleep outside and fast for 24 hours Tom Zillich tom.zillich@surreynowleader.com

For “One Night Out” on Nov. 5, some Surrey-area residents will sleep outside and fast in an effort to raise money for a cause.

The fifth annual fundraiser is planned by operators of restaurant/bar chain Joseph Richard Group, which has partnered with six local charities “to bring awareness to vulnerable youth in the community.”

They are Covenant House, Youth Unlimited, Variety-The Children’s Charity, City Dream Centre, Phoenix Society and Mackie’s Place.

A “main event” will see people sleep outside that Friday night at a site in South Surrey, or donors can spend one night outside at their home – in the yard or on a patio – during the week of Nov. 1. Another option is to fast for 24 hours, or join a virtual gathering.

Registrants can sign up to support a specific charity, or have their donations split equally among them.

The fundraiser was launched in 2016 by Joseph Richard Group CEO Ryan Moreno, who “continues to push the boundary to reach the goal of one day engaging 700 participants who raise $1 million for vulnerable youth,” explains a post on the One Night Out website, at jrg.ca.

“This year, we are bringing awareness by talking about basic needs like sleep and food that those on the margins don’t have access to.”

Moreno talks about the initiative in video on Instagram.

“Ryan was deeply impacted by his first experience at Covenant House’s Sleep Out Executive Edition in 2018 when the statistics had a profound effect on his urgency to do more,” says the One Night Out website.

“At that time there were nearly 700 homeless young people in Metro Vancouver, according to the region’s first-ever youth homeless count. With approximately 700 people employed at JRG at the time, Ryan had a vision for everyone to come together to sleep outside in hopes that every single homeless young person in Metro Vancouver would someday not have to.

Family breaks cycle of addiction with love EDITOR’S NOTE: This story is being re-published due to a production error in the Oct. 21 issue.

Aaron Hinks Black Press Media

O

ften thought of as a strategy to help a loved one recover from addiction, “tough love” is being criticized by some experts and people with lived experiences as having limited effectiveness and in some cases, fatal consequences.

Tough love can be described as the act of treating someone harshly with intent to help them in the long-run. Often, it entails ‘or else’ ultimatums that result in a family member being cut off or left to feel isolated.

White Rock’s Ryan Nielsen, 27, is two years sober after a near-death battle with an opioid addiction.

Ryan and his father, Darin Nielsen, were two of several panelists that spoke at an emotionally-charged Dialogue for Family Members Impacted by the Opioid Crisis event held Oct. 18 in White Rock.

Speaking to the Now-Leader prior to the event, Ryan explained that he turned to prescription opioids in early adulthood, partly because of how they were glamorized in media. He quickly realized how powerful opioids are at numbing emotions and concealing depression.

The more Ryan used prescription opioids, the quicker he began to develop physical dependency. Due to costs, he turned to street drugs, which were cut with everything from fentanyl to benzodiazepines.

“Once you just dabble into it… that’s kind of it,” Ryan said. “You have a new demon on your back that’s hard to get rid of. It affects your thinking, it affects your emotions.”

Ryan said he couldn’t sleep, eat, or even think without first getting

White Rock Tides of Change member Ryan Nielsen, 27, is sharing his story of the circle of addiction, and what helped him to recovery. (Photo: Aaron Hinks) his fix. No matter how bad he wanted to get out, he was pulled back in. His physical symptoms became so much that finding drugs was an act of survival.

“You can’t do anything. Your whole day is revolved on, how can I get this so I can at least think of what I need to do – just to do the bare minimum.”

Today, he attributes his positive relationship with his father, and the boundaries set by his family, as a key part to his multiple-year journey to recovery.

Ryan described the parenting style of his father as “trial and error.” In the early days of Ryan’s recovery, his family would show frustrations whenever he would “slip up” and relapse.

“There’s lots of times they would get upset… that would make me almost go into a relapse mode where I’m like well shit… if they’re mad at me, I can’t deal with this emotion on top of the withdrawals so I’m going to use right away,” he said.

“The tough love really did not help, for sure. But at the same time, there has to be certain boundaries.

That’s what helped me to the end.”

One of the boundaries Ryan mentioned was that he was allowed

to live in the family home under the condition he didn’t use inside the house. Compassion, honesty, empathy, and mutual understanding were also on offer, he added.

“That really helped me, having firm boundaries but also being compassionate and being honest.”

Ryan and Darin agree that a pivotal moment in Ryan’s recovery happened shortly after he returned from a treatment centre and relapsed.

Darin said he had to sell an investment property, which was saved for the kids, to put Ryan into the treatment centre.

“My knee-jerk reaction was, ‘how could you do this to me. I’ve sacrificed my future, how could you do this,’” Darin said. “It was me, me, me, me. I got myself in this pity-party victim mode.”

Instead of acting on his reaction, Darin said he took time to reflect and think about lessons learned from Sources Community Resource Centre on how to respond with love, not toughness.

“Let’s give it a shot. Let’s try to respond with compassion. I calmed myself down. Clearly this other approach of ‘you’re out of the house’ doesn’t work… So lets give it a go,” Darin said.

HALLOWEEN save $3 Fully Cooked Chicken Wings

Darin said he went for a walk with Ryan, and talked about how Ryan was feeling while he was conquering his addiction, and the dopamine release because of that accomplishment.

It was a conversation that changed everything.

“So you fell off the horse, big deal, who gives a shit, get back on the horse and get back to that feeling. Let’s figure out what went wrong and how do we intercept earlier and mitigate this going forward,” Darin told his son in that moment.

“That was a different conversation than I ever had with him and he responded much differently. We did something different and we got a different outcome, an outcome that was positive. It validated to me that wow, this hocus-pocus, lovey-dovey stuff that everyone is talking about works.”

Ryan said knowing his father was there for him, through thick or thin, was what he needed.

“Having someone understand me, relate to my emotions and being there for me was so helpful.

That was part of the end… I felt like I could do things. I could do recovery.”

Darin said what’s often lost on parents is that they need to safeguard their own well-being with boundaries and self-care.

“You need to step back and revisit yourself,” he said. “Take care of that person in the mirror before you can take care of someone else. Get your own house in order.

That’s so critical.”

Sources addictions services manager George Passmore said he often hears the term ‘tough love,’ but noted there’s always a strong emphasis on the word “tough” and very little evidence of “love.”

“If we remove love from people’s lives, they do not have better outcomes, ever,” Passmore said.

Key to finding a balance is setting boundaries that allow parents

to have their own space for well-being, but at the same time being supportive for their struggling child.

“Boundaries are how to define your own space for well-being, what you need in your life to be well. Everyone has a right to that,” Passmore said.

Passmore said an old idea of thinking is that if a parent makes it too comfortable for their child, there would never be impetus to change.

“Certainly, there’s some thought around that,” Passmore added.

“But there’s a whole approach in counselling called motivational interviewing that is all about engaging people around what they want most in life. And engaging people where they’re at, but also being curious about where they may want to go in their life. And to explore to what degree is their relationship with substances. To what degree is it benefiting them? Or harming them? Or hindering them in their goal? That’s a very different way to explore something so it’s kind of coming alongside someone rather than coming at them, or pushing them away.”

Toxic drugs are now the leading cause of death in B.C. for people between 19 and 39 years of age.

The majority of those were men, and were alone at the time of their death.

Ryan now works for the White Rock Community Action Team ‘Tides of Change.’

His motivation to speaking with the Now-Leader, he said, is to help at least one person get on the pathway to recovery.

“It’s weird to think that I could have not made it out of that and I could have been a life lost. If there’s any way, or any chance, that I could help even just one person, that brings me a lot of fulfillment.”

Our view

Respect your neighbours O

nce again we find ourselves in the undoubtedly scariest time of the year for pets.

That’s Halloween on Oct. 31 and Diwali on Nov. 4, when fireworks will be lighting up the night skies, freaking out Fido.

The RCMP will field a plethora of angry phone calls from residents who are riled by the cacophony.

Of course, pleas to people who’ll be setting off fireworks to be reasonable will, for many of them, fall on deaf ears.

We’re not saying don’t have fun. We are saying that blow-

ing up one firework, after another, after another, after another between dusk and dawn is not what good neighbours are made of.

That’s what jerks do. Don’t be a jerk.

On the flip side, if someone wants to legally shoot off some fireworks for a short period of time, at a reasonable hour, it’s also probably a good call for residents to exercise some patience.

Fireworks are not allowed in this city without a special permit issued by the Surrey Fire Service’s Fire Prevention Branch and require a certifi-

cate of liability insurance covering a minimum of $2 million in potential damage.

Moreover, under the city’s fireworks bylaw they can’t be possessed by people under age 18 and violations carry a minimum fine of $100 and maximum fine of $5,000, plus the cost of prosecution.

Sad to say the deterrent is futile, however, witnessed by the vast number of fireworks that typically get seized by police.

Remember, one person’s party is another person’s pain in the posterior. Be safe, have fun, but don’t be a jerk.

months. When Falcon narrowly lost to Clark in 2011, he won most of the more “conservative” interior and suburban Vancouver ridings, while Clark took the more progressive-minded ridings along the coast and in downtown areas.

The primary challenge for the B.C. Liberals today is to bridge that divide between urban-rural and conservative-liberal voters.

While socially conservative positions may rally a core base of motivated supporters in a leadership contest, they make it very hard to get elected in a diverse progressive place like British Columbia.

That could explain why Falcon is reminding potential party voters of his ground-breaking support in 2008 for a carbon tax which both reduced emissions and kept the economy healthy.

political base. The list of leadership hopefuls includes three current MLAs, including Michael Lee (Vancouver Langara), Renee Merryfield (Kelowna Mission) and Ellis Ross (Skeena).

Merryfield is hoping to inspire younger voters, while Ellis Ross’ experience as Haisla Nation Chief may attract northern and Indigenous voters.

Rounding out the list of “insiders” is previous leadership hopeful Lee, who may appeal to tech-savvy urban voters in his trademark congenial approach.

A good example is the lighthearted gesture he made recently by “buying forward” a beer at a craft brewery on Vancouver Island for his rival Kevin Falcon, who was coming through the area the following week. All posted on Instagram, of course.

vote ballot.

Sound complicated? It is.

Think back to other party leaders who won recently because they were not the first choice within their party, but who garnered enough second- and third-place choices to win: Andrew Scheer, Erin O’Toole and Andrew Wilkinson. Not exactly a ringing endorsement for the success of the preferential weighted ballot.

Lee was leading on the fourth ballot in 2018, but due to the convoluted leadership voting system, which awards points for second and third place choices, Lee was dropped from the fifth and final ballot. Everyone’s second or third choice, Wilkinson, was elected leader.

The B.C Liberals are hoping for a different outcome this time around.

Rotten tomatoes to the mayor of Surrey and his four council members for their bylaw amendment regarding political signs.

Rotten tomatoes to whoever dumped several mattresses and a sofa into Bear Creek! Easier to call Surrey for “Large Item Pick Up.” Waterlogged items are difficult to remove from creek.

Exploding rotten tomatoes to those who insist on using fireworks this time of year (and to Surrey for not having the staff on at night to deal with it).

The Editor, Re: “Surrey’s political sign bylaw condemned as anti-democratic,” the Now-Leader online, Oct. 19.

“Sore Toe Joe” McCallum has fired up my artistic juices to create some lawn art.

Marshall McLuhan said, I am told, “The medium is the message.”

I don’t know if it applies here.

To represent by way of art the current state of affairs in Surrey, where the public is being silenced by way of a gag order introduced into Surrey bylaws, it seemed appropriate to create a piece of art that would represent the feelings of the masses.

Cave art, which is not always in the caves, sometimes called pictographs, have been around for centuries to convey the feelings of the people. Prey animals were drawn in celebration of abundance as well as predatory animals were drawn as warnings.

So pictured above is my lawn art to convey my concept of the feelings of the masses in Surrey currently.

Enjoy.

He told the Now-Leader the “biggest change (not positive) for our neighbourhood is coming at us as normal residents living in our nice neighbourhood are going to pay the price as coming changes are being done to convert to commercial and sell off parkland and greenspace to generate income for the city but also favour one developer.”

Surrey RCMP is looking for the rightful owners of a “substantial” amount of cash that was found in a box of donated clothing.

The money was found in early September in a box of clothing that had been donated to a thrift store in the 10600block of King George Boulevard. Surrey RCMP Cpl. Vanessa Munn, said an employee found the cash and “suspected it was inadvertently donated, so they turned it into police.”

The employee believed the box of clothing was likely donated between July 1 and 15.

Police said if you can identify the amount of cash, the denominations of the bills and what the money was stored in, contact Surrey RCMP at 604599-0502.

“First, the trial judge only misapprehended the substance of the evidence concerning the length of time it would have taken the victim to die by smothering, however the error would not have changed the outcome regarding the appellant’s intent,” an online summary of the decision states.

“Second, the trial judge made two erroneous conclusions with regard to speculating how the offence occurred, however they were harmless errors and did not impact the trial judge’s conclusion that the appellant had the requisite intent. Finally, the trial judge did not find that every after-the-fact action was consistent with intent, rather she properly considered actions relevant to intent and the defences raised by the appellant.”

Batstone killed her daughter in the early-morning hours of Dec. 20, 2014, and was charged with second-degree murder after Teagan’s body was found in the trunk of a car in a cul-de-sac off Crescent Road.

Following trial in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster – during which 36 witnesses gave evidence, and the only issue was whether Batstone had intended to kill her daughter – she was handed a mandatory life sentence with a 15-year wait before she could apply for release.

BOOK DIRECT

The Safe Surrey Coalition majority on city council has approved bylaw amendments that will allow the city to indemnify Surrey Police Service officers and employees of the Surrey Police Board, on a five-to-four vote.

The federal government, meantime, indemnifies Surrey’s Mounties while the City of Surrey covers those civilian employees working with the RCMP. Coun. Linda Annis, of Surrey First, characterized council’s decision to indemnify the SPS as a “financial train wreck just waiting to happen.”

“One vehicular pursuit gone wrong, for example, could cost Surrey taxpayers millions,” Annis warned. “It’s like knowing there’s a huge financial iceberg just ahead but you’re going to sail into it anyway.”

While the federal government indemnifies the Surrey RCMP and pays all the costs, claims, and lawsuits against them, Annis noted, the city’s switch to self-indemnifying “means Surrey taxpayers will be stuck with these costs. For example, any claims that are made for injury, wrongful death, losses of any kind caused by the SPS will be paid by taxpayers.

Meanwhile no one seems to be aware of what that estimate could be, which is absolutely ridiculous.”

A corporate report authored by general manager of corporate services Rob Costanzo, general manager of finance Kam Grewal and Terry Waterhouse, general manager of Surrey’s transition from the Surrey RCMP to SPS says that as SPS becomes “operationalized” this fall the city will assume responsibility for indemnifying and defending SPS officers and employees against claims for damages arising from the performance of their duties.

asked if volunteers are covered, or members of the public who are asked to assist police during the course of their duties.

“As a former police officer myself I can tell you that the cost of claims can sometimes be extremely high,” Hundial said.

He recalled one police force in B.C. had to pay out nearly $3 million in dog bite claims.

Waterhouse said “this As SPS becomes “operationalized” this fall the city will assume particular indemnification” responsibility for indemnifying and defending SPS officers and employees against claims for damages arising from the performance doesn’t extend to volunteers but employees only. of their duties.

“The music was so loud, people were complaining,” Sangha said.

Police received as many as 40 noise complaints related to the wedding.

“Other people still have to go to work, they’ve got to get up in the morning, so they need their sleep.

Later that morning, Mounties accompanied bylaws officers and a building and electrical inspector to the property at 7711 192 St. due to “multiple illegal tents set up at the back of the property.”

The city issued a stop work order to the property owner for not ob-

taining permits for the tents, issued compliance orders to the owner due to concerns over the electrical setup and indicated it would be “issuing fines for zoning and building infractions.”

Also, “there is consideration being given to issuing violation tickets under the Public Health Order,” Cpl. Vanessa Munn told the Now-Leader.

when she was in elementary school in Vancouver, multi-storey schools were normal, adding she’s “quite surprised that the school district in such a fast-growing district like Surrey didn’t already have those multi-levelled elementary schools.”

As for “going in earlier,” Riley said the district works with the city to identify areas in neighbourhood concept plans that are going to need a new school or addition “well in advance of when development starts.”

In July, the district submitted a $1.44-billion capital plan funding request for 27 projects that include new student spaces, seismic upgrades and replacement schools.

“That’s what we believe we need to keep pace with the growth that’s anticipated in Surrey and to catch up on all of the portables that we have presently in the district,” said Riley.

Surrey director and longtime fan creates new Erasure music video Tom Zillich tom.zillich@surreynowleader.com

A new music video for synth-pop legends Erasure was made by Surrey-based director Stephano Barberis, who has detailed the creative process for the Now-Leader.

The song, called “Time (Hearts Full of Love),” is “typical super-catchy, addictive Erasure ear worm,” says the award-winning director, a fan of the British duo since childhood.

“It was all extremely surreal to me,” added Barberis, who also created visuals for Erasure’s “Neon” tour of the U.K. this month, with projections on a 10-metre wall of sheets.

“Initially, the music video was just going to be piggybacked onto the tour-visuals shoot, but that was so laborious and time-consuming that

we literally ran out of time and had to shoot the music video later,” he explained.

“We all loved how the projections worked so we devised a plan entailing us driving around the city at night and projecting footage of the band on various buildings and surfaces.”

Since its YouTube debut on Oct. 16, the “Time (Hearts Full of Love)” video has been viewed more than 85,000 times.

To create the video, Barberis encouraged Erasure’s Andy Bell (singer) and Vince Clarke (keyboardist) to send him phone videos of themselves performing the song with a white wall behind them.

“I asked for specific angles and distances as well, then took that footage and ultra-keyed it to death and converted it into fun holo-

by Surrey’s Stephano Barberis using submitted video of band members cut with footage filmed in and around East Vancouver. (Photo: YouTube) graphic looks (think R2D2 and Princess Leia),” Barberis explained.

“Initially, the video wasn’t going to have the band in it,” he added, “but there is one thing that is of utmost importance to the fans of the band – that they are in their

videos.… I was even very firm in that I wanted Vince in the video, as it’s pretty much the most legendary pop duo in history.”

Barberis was “quite anxious” about not having a lot of control over how the two would look in submitted

videos, “but it worked out due to all the distorting holographic effects used,” he noted.

“Since Andy was in London and Vince lives in New York City, it would have been impossible to get everyone together to shoot, especially as they were about to start rehearsals for their tour and there were travel restrictions due to the pandemic.”

In Vancouver, scenes for the video were filmed on “a long stretch of completely dead roads” near Clark Drive.

“The next day (shoot night), we drove around in a very large van full of equipment with follow and lead vehicles, shooting out the open side of it with an industrial-sized projector,” Barberis elaborated. “In order to be stealthy and non-disruptive, we also used

a battery-powered generator.

It was silent but the projector was such an energy pig that it drained it so quickly.

“We also shot stationary projections onto a very old school in Strathcona, trees, puddles and derelict buildings around Main and Terminal, underground parkades by the port, brick walls, and even my art director Rio’s naked back,” Barberis continued. “We would have shot a lot more surfaces had the projector not drained the generator that quick. We finished pretty close to dawn, though, so our production was going to turn into a pumpkin pretty soon.”

Next year, Erasure’s “Neon” tour of North America includes a Feb. 22 concert at Seattle’s Moore Theatre, but no Vancouver date is scheduled. Details are posted to erasureinfo.com.

It’s going to be a rockin’ Halloween at Surrey’s White Hart Public House.

The Newton-area stage will host the double bill of Alice Hardy and Stickman, with tickets priced at $10 in advance, or $15 at the door.

The White Hart, located at the former Hook and Ladder pub at 8593 132 St., has filled its entertainment calendar with live bands, jam nights and other events over the past couple of years, and was among the first bars in Metro Vancouver to again feature live entertainment early in the COVID era, back in June 2020.

At the Hart family-operated pub, a sold-out Oct. 23 gig by Masters of Justice has triggered a second show by the Metallica tribute band, on Nov. 5, and other bands booked there play the music of Rage Against the Machine (Calm Like A Bomb), Black Sabbath (Wicked World), Red Hot Chili Peppers and more.

The band Stickman at Surrey’s White Hart Pub last summer. (Photo: Tom Zillich) Tickets are needed for all weekend shows, with some priced as high as $25.

Both Alice Hardy and Stickman play originals and some covers.

Stickman, a Grunge-inspired trio, played the sold-out Return of Rock concert at Vancouver’s Rickshaw Theatre on Friday, Oct. 15. “Still buzzin’ from an

amazing night,” the group later posted to Facebook, with photos.

Stickman rocks with Kim Whitford on guitars and vocals, Randall Taylor on bass and vocals and Des Vegas on drums.

The band was formed in 2017 and released a debut CD, “A Chromatic Grey,” a year later.

Early in October the trio put

out “Three Out of Ten,” a new collection of heavy songs.

“They have been playing the Vancouver club scene, winning over every audience they play for, ever since,” a bio raves.

“Stickman gives everything they have to everyone in front of them and leaves it all on the stage before rebuilding for the next show.

“Heavily influenced by the ’90s grunge scene, bands like Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, Nirvana and many others gave Stickman a solid base to build their sound and inspire three creative minds to deliver an amazing new take on that phenomenal time.”

Some of Stickman’s songs are posted to YouTube.

Earlier this month, Stickman hit the stage during the White Hart’s Awards Show on Oct. 9, along with the Wingnuts, Live Wire (Motley Crue tribute), Robert Graves, Johnny Elvis & The Retros and some of the other award-winners from the local music scene.

GO! Seasonal event

Bright Nights return to Stanley Park with help of firefighters; tickets on sale Stanley Park’s popular Bright Nights event will return this fall and winter.

The train-themed attraction will run from Nov. 26 to Jan. 2, with the help of Surrey firefighters and others from across the region.

“Dedicated firefighter volunteers have been eager to return to the park to transform the plaza into a twinkling

winter escape, while the Park Board team have been dreaming up an enchanting train ride,” says an event advisory from BC Professional Fire Fighters’ Burn Fund. “Together they are currently hard at work to create the special displays.”

Bright Nights in Stanley Park shifted to an online virtual tour last year due to

COVID-19 restrictions.

With new safety measures in place, guests can once again experience Bright Nights in person with a scaled-back light display in the plaza and a festive train ride.

Tickets for Bright Nights in Stanley Park are now available for purchase online, on the websites vancouver.ca and ticketleader.ca, or call 604-

257-8531. Due to capacity restrictions, guests must show their train tickets to enter the park and will board the train in their specified time slot. Although proof of vaccination is not required at this time, masks are recommended.

The train has been fitted with plexiglass dividers between the benches.

Also returning this year

is the Burn Fund’s Bright Nights 50/50, with an even bigger potential jackpot of $1 million. The raffle was created last year and reached a jackpot of $525,660. Tickets for the Bright Nights 50/50 go on sale Nov. 18, with all proceeds supporting Burn Fund programs.

Also in Vancouver, VanDusen Festival of Lights is set to

return Nov. 26, with tickets on sale Nov. 1. Guests 12 years and older will need to provide proof of full vaccination to enter. Some activities, such as the carousel and photos with Santa, will not be offered, but new features include an illuminated rose garden display and a Santa letter-writing activity for kids.

Small businesses have long been the heart and soul of downtown Newton. There is something to be said about being on a first-name basis with a local restaurateur or another small business owner, as such familiarity often translates into exemplary service.

As you drive or stroll through the community, you’ll notice almost 100% of the businesses are small and locally owned. Newton’s established shops and restaurants are often second and third-generation (such as Carillon Music, Greco’s Specialty Foods, Pine Lighting, the

WINGS WED WITH PURCHASE OF DRINK

Old Surrey Restaurant, and SinclairMotorsports).

Others have brought their culture and experience to the fore. We’ve become accustomed to the rich flavours, fusion choices, and family needs from eyewear to dentistry and even alternative healing techniques brought lovingly from South Asia, the Middle East and many other countries.

It’s been a challenging 18 months for all of us, and in every case, our local businesses have faced the same challenges and risen to them with innovative and helpful solutions.

We’ve been happy to get to know the neighbourhood a little better, from experiencing a more online experience to offering outdoor dining.

NEWTON NEWS 30 Years Helping Thousands of Families

September’s numbers for Newton BIA groups — Team Tidy, Community Safety, Graffiti Removal and Large Garbage are in, and it’s proof positive the Newton BIA and its teams are at the forefront of positive change.

Team Tidy removed 21 bags of trash.

The Community Safety patrol resolved hundreds of nuisance complaints. The Large Garbage removal group disposed of almost 100 pieces of illegal dumping.

We all look forward to a more relaxed and family-oriented holiday season and want to help our favourite small businesses use these next few months and beyond to set the course for success for 2022. All of us must make a concerted effort to fuel this vital cog in our local economic engines.

• Shop local — the concept is simple but effective. Opting to shop in local stores over more giant conglomerates and franchises can help small businesses take root. Before making holiday shopping lists, visit local stores and base gift ideas on items they have in stock. Chances are, those gifts will be one-of-a-kind.

• Cater holiday meals and gatherings. The holiday season is chockfull of entertainment opportunities.

Individuals can rely on nearby restaurants and other food and beverage companies to cater holiday parties.

Some businesses also may be willing to discount or donate food for non-profit group activities, such as holiday bazaars, school holiday concerts or fundraising fairs.

• Mention small businesses on social media. The holiday season breeds excitement.

Therefore, when shoppers are in local stores, they can snap pictures of products and overflowing shopping bags and post them online while praising lsocal businesses. We invite you to visit and follow our Newton BIA online on Instagram and Facebook. We highlight some of the newest businesses there to keep you up on the latest news and offers! www.instagram.com/newtonbia/ https://www.facebook.com/NewtonBIA

• Think about subscription gifts, such as enrollment in a health club or a massage therapy service. These gifts keep on giving for the recipient and help ensure consistent incoming cash for the business providing the service.

A Langley-based artist’s “journey through a crisis” is the subject of Surrey Art Gallery’s next Thursday Artist Talk, an in-person event.

On Nov. 4 at 7:30 p.m., Amy J. Dyck “will take listeners on an emotional journey as she tells the story of a sudden and painful crisis that landed her in a wheelchair in 2017,” according to an advisory for the hour-long talk, presented by Surrey Art Gallery Association.

Dyck used art “to process her new life, build resilience, and find humour and healing along the way. She will show a selection of images from five bodies of work that each relate to different stages of processing, rebuilding, and growth.”

Having studied in the classical style of the old masters, Dyck now works mainly in oil paint, charcoal and collage.

Largely a self-taught artist, she “incorporates high realism and abstraction into her figurative, autobiographical artwork. Her deep interest in vulnerability and the human condition holds up a mirror to listeners’ own struggles and resilience.”

Described as a “contemporary figurative artist,” Dyck teaches and demonstrates painting and drawing for all ages in Vancouver and the Fraser Valley, and has her work in collections around the world. Examples are shown on her website, amyjdyck. com.

Two days following Dyck’s talk, Surrey Art Gallery convenes a symposium called “A New Normal,” as part of its annual digital media arts series, on Saturday afternoon, Nov. 6 from 1 to 4 p.m.

The in-person event, also livestreamed on YouTube, will include a solo dance performance (“PPE Waves: A New Normal?”), talk-back and panel

Artist Amy J. Dyck is the guest speaker during a Thursday Artist Talk at Surrey Art Gallery on Nov. 4. (submitted photo) “Inspired by the performance (which involves nudity), the project collaborators will discuss the foundational technology of the body and the simple mechanics of corporeal systems as they combine with digital forms of creation and expression,” explains a post on surrey.ca.

Surrey Art Gallery is located at 13750 88 Ave., at Bear Creek Park. For details visit surrey.ca/ artgallery or call 604-501-5566.

Later that month, the arts centre’s Studio Theatre will be set up for Surrey Art Gallery Association’s annual Heart to Home Holiday Market, a “fun and festive two-day market” on Nov. 27-28.

“For those who’d rather shop from the comfort of your home, discussion involving Henry Dan- Surrey Art Gallery Association’s online gift shop is always open.” iel, Diane Sowter, Charlie Cooper and Alan Storey. Admission says an event advisory. “From November 27 through to Deis free for the symposium, with cember 22, SAGA will offer 15% convener Cecily Nicholson, the off for getting into the festive gallery’s interpretive programspirit.” mer.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has been around for thousands of years and runs on the premise that our vital energy or Qi should flow through the channels in our body in a smooth manner to keep a body’s physical, emotional, mental and physiological health in balance. If not, we encounter disease. TCM includes several modalities, with the most popular being Acupuncture. For new patients, Acupressure, Cupping, Massage, Moxibustion, Tapping, Herbal remedies, Laser, Diet therapy and Movement can be incorporated into a treatment. TCM can help your entire family from babies to elderly and each treatment is customized for each individual to treat the root cause of the illness. It can also be used as a preventative medicine to keep the body functioning optimally. While we can treat all illnesses, some of the common conditions we treat are: stress, pain, anxiety, depression, insomnia, hormone regulation, PMS, digestion, allergies, skin issues, fatigue, sinus pain, TMJ, vertigo, headaches, menopause and women’s health.

Q A

Homework is always an issue in our home. I have to remind my kids over and over to get their homework done. It is always such a struggle! Do you have any tips that will resolve this issue once and for all and how can I get it under control?

This time of year is the time when the excitement of back to school has worn off and kids are back into the routine of school. It is the time of year when homework begins again in full force. It is also the time of year when school problems begin to arise. One area where this is particularly true is homework.

Homework is an unavoidable part of school. That’s why it is so important to develop a good homework strategy—the sooner that kids learn how to manage their homework workload, the easier it becomes. Decide and design a specific homework time and place where the homework is more likely to get done. Set up a mini study stadium which is just a fancy name for a designated homework area.

Choose a quiet area of the house where you can permanently set up a table, some good lighting, and a calendar. If you decide on 7pm at the kitchen table, you can model the behavior for your children by joining in and doing work of some sort. Gather all the materials needed for the homework time such as calculators, pens, pencils, erasers, paper, and dictionary. Remove distractions by turning off the TV and the radio and you’ll have an area that is homework-only.

Stick to the homework schedule that you have agreed on. It may be difficult at first but soon it will become a routine that everybody can depend on.

from looking at your computer/ Q Dophoneyouforgettoonecklong?painHeadaches?

A

Though the cause of the neck pain or headaches is not easy to diagnose, the result of overused tight muscles in your neck and upper back will likely attribute to it. Persistent neck pain may stem from numerous cause such as car accidents, workplace injuries, sleeping in awkward positions, or spending hours hunched over at a computer station or on your phone.

Poor posture is a common cause of neck pain, which can effectively be relieved by therapeutic massage by a qualified RMT. The human neck is perfectly designed to support the head, with the curvature of the neck, muscles, vertebrae, discs, nerves, and ligaments playing a role supporting the head and allowing the neck to move. The complex biomechanics of the neck are fragile and poor posture can alter their workings causing movements of the head and neck to become painful. When head is subjected to exert excessive pressure on the neck, it likely leads to increased compression of the discs in the neck. Over time, this may cause degeneration of the discs, nerve compression, tightened muscles, less flexibility, arthritis, and excruciating pain.

Massage therapy has been clinically proven to be a very effective treatment, when medications for antiinflammatory or pain management do not provide enough relief (at least in the short term for persons with chronic neck pain or headaches). Before beginning treatment a trained Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) will assess the condition of the neck and determine which muscles need to be strengthened Come and see our RMT and see which massage treatment is most effective for you to decrease muscle tightness with trigger point release, stretching, and/or fascial release.

Totems no more: Semiahmoo switches to Thunderbirds name

Four Surrey athletes among B.C’s 10 Indigenous Youth Excellence in Sport winners

Nick Greenizan Black Press Media

As part of ongoing reconciliation efforts with the Semiahmoo First Nation, the South Surrey high school that bears its name has officially changed its team name.

Semiahmoo Secondary will no longer use the Totems moniker for its teams, and instead has switched to Thunderbirds, after discussion with members of the Semiahmoo First Nation, including Chief Harley Chappell.

The switch was announced in a Surrey Schools news release Thursday, though the Thunderbirds name has been in use since the start of the school year.

According to the school, the change was “motivated by a desire to accurately and respectfully recognize the Semiahmoo First Nation.”

“Over the last few years, the school has worked with the Semiahmoo First Nation to rebuild their relationship and better represent their traditions and culture,” the release notes.

“In talking with various people and engaging with Chief Chappell, we saw an opportunity to strengthen our connection with Semiahmoo First Nation and honour the people we’re named after,” said Semiahmoo Secondary vice-principal Robert Dewinetz, adding that the new name has the endorsement of SFN council.

Dewinetz added that in speaking with SFN Coun.

Joanne Charles, it was noted that totems are not an appropriate name for a school that sits on Coast Salish lands, “so we started talking about what

Semiahmoo Secondary sports teams, including the seniors girls basketball squad pictured here, have changed their name from the Totems to the Thunderbirds after discussions with members of Semiahmoo First Nation. (File photo) name would reflect the culture and the land, and that’s how we landed on Thunderbirds.”

Lyn Daniels, a director of instruction with the school district’s Aboriginal Learning department, added that “the Semiahmoo Totems is a misunderstanding of who the Semiahmoo people are and what could represent them.”

“The Semiahmoo and other Coast Salish First Nations didn’t create totem poles or house posts, they had welcome figures to welcome people to the territory,” Daniels said, adding that the Thunderbird is part of Coast Salish traditions.

“This has been a longstanding issue, that sports organizations

take imagery from Indigenous cultures and use it disrespectfully in ways that are not aligned.

“It takes some courage to say, ‘We made a mistake, but now we want to do better, we want to be more respectful, and as part of our reconciliation, we’re changing the name.’ And that’s really important.”

On Friday, shortly after the name change was officially announced, Semiahmoo First Nation wrote on its Facebook page, “We appreciate seeing growing sensitivity and efforts for reconciliation in the community. We are glad (that) the work we have done with Semiahmoo Secondary is bearing fruit.”

A new school logo is currently being designed by the school “in partnership with the Semiahmoo First Nation,” according to Surrey Schools spokesperson Ritinder Matthew.

No other schools in Surrey are in the process of a name change, Matthew added.

Thursday’s release also noted that the name-change process was slowed by the pandemic, with Dewinetz adding that the school will continue to work with SFN in the future, to discuss how to make further progress towards reconciliation.

“We’re building a relationship that wasn’t there years ago. This is an important step that our school is taking.”

Four Surrey-area athletes are among provincial winners of the 2020 Premier’s Awards for Indigenous Youth Excellence in Sport.

An awards event was livestreamed Wednesday (Oct. 20) by the Indigenous Sport, Physical Activity & Recreation Council (I·SPARC), with host broadcaster Blake Price.

The 10 recipients embody “the qualities of a leader, is connected to their community and is committed to their studies and future goals,” according to I·SPARC president Corinne McKay. “These outstanding athletes have demonstrated perseverance and commitment to their sport during this challenging time.”

The award winners include Surrey-based athletes Hillary Birkett (age 13, Metis Nation), Colton Cameron (18, Métis Nation), Kendrick Lounsbury (16, Namgis First Nation) and Taya Suttill (18, Métis Nation).

Colton Cameron has excelled in hockey, football, basketball, baseball, soccer, track & field and ultimate Frisbee, while Hillary Birkett is active in figure skating and track & field. Kendrick Lounsbury is a football player, and Taya Suttill plays soccer and basketball.

From elsewhere in B.C., the six other recipients are Grace Currie (18, Quesnel, North Central Métis), Ellashani George (16, Duncan, Kwikwasut’inuxw, Ławitsis and Oneida), Clinton Kaboni (18, Merritt, Nipissing First Nation), Aidan Lenhart-Baker (25, West Vancouver, Squamish Nation), Olivia Lounsbury (18, Chilliwack, Tahltan Nation) and Kieran McKay (22, Vancouver, Michel Band).

A 30-minute “celebration video” is posted to I·SPARC’s YouTube channel, and each athlete will have their photo and biography on display at the BC Sports Hall of Fame.

I·SPARC launched a regional nomination call for the Premier’s Awards in late 2020, receiving nominations from each of I·SPARC’s six regions (Fraser, Interior, Northeast, Northwest, Vancouver Coastal, and Vancouver Island).

Nominations were open for Indigenous athletes under the age of 25 “who have competed in high-performance sport, demonstrated a commitment to their education and culture, and have promoted healthy and active lifestyles.”

“I’ve worked with various Real Estate Agents on both Buying and Selling Side for over 10 years…

I’ve always been frustrated with the lack of attention and service I was getting... I decided to give Tracey Bosch an opportunity… and boy, did he ever deliver! Tracey took the time to understand my needs... marketed in a major way and ended up delivering results faster than I ever thought possible. In fact, I was able to sell my property for more money and in a time-frame that would have taken any other realtor almost double the time... all while sitting back and letting Tracey handle the details… I’ll definitely be using him for ALL of my future Real Estate Needs and I highly recommend Tracey to anyone who is looking for an outstanding experience.”

What Tracey’s Clients Have to Say Tracey and his Team helped us with the sale of our condo and purchase of our beautiful home. From the day we met Tracey we felt comfortable, confident, and happy we made the decision to ask for his help. We can’t say enough about the professionalism, personal communication, follow through and amazing job Tracey and his Team did for us. They went above and beyond to sell our home and to help us purchase our family home! Throughout our journey Tracey ensured to answer our million questions, addressed any concerns, listened to our wants/needs/family goals, and ensured our comfort/safety in selling and buying during a pandemic. With Tracey’s help we found the home we love, in the community we wanted to be in. It was important my parents were involved in the process; they were welcomed and are incredibly happy to see us in our home.

We jokingly told Tracey that a requirement is to have a home we can hear the birds chirping – Our house has a tree outside our sitting area that is a resting spot for hummingbirds and other small birds. We are also on a flight path for Canadian Geese, we look forward to the morning arrivals and evening departures.

We asked – Tracey delivered! Thank you, Tracey, Natalie and Team - We can’t thank you enough for your help.

Susanne and Jamie Buying and selling a home is a huge undertaking and demands a lot of patience, understanding and forgiveness. Finding the right Realtor to help you through this process is key. Tracey Bosch was recommended to us by a trusted friend, and he certainly didn’t disappoint. From the very start, Tracey was able to quickly determine our needs and was able to provide such a wealth of knowledge in terms of understanding the market and what we could and would achieve. His experienced methods resulted in a quick and seamless sale.

Our purchase of a new home was simply down to the work Tracey and his team did in seeking and providing all the necessary information for us to make an informed decision Would highly recommend Tracey Bosch and his team to anyone for a stress free, home buying/selling experience.

Stacey & Mark W Tracey always acted very professionally and always answered our questions and made sure no details were overlooked. Our calls were always returned promptly. We appreciated his knowledge and negotiating skills. Oh, did I mention his wicked sense of humor.
