❚HST STARTS THURSDAY

HOGG TIED TO RECALL LIST Tom ZYTARUK Staff Reporter

Veteran Liberal MLA Gordon Hogg is the only Surrey MLA so far who’s on a list of government politicians to be targeted for recall as the widely loathed Harmonized Sales Tax is set to come into effect on Thursday. Considering the Surrey-White Rock riding has traditionally been the provincial Liberals’ safest seat in these parts, it may come as a surprise to many that Hogg, of all Surrey Liberal MLAs, is among the anti-HST campaigners’ list of 24 government MLAs potentially up for recall. But former Socred premier Bill Vander Zalm, who is spearheading the campaign against the controversial sales tax, said Hogg is on the list because more than 25 per cent of his GORDON HOGG constituents signed the petition asking the government to kill the HST. “Our best numbers are coming out of the Liberal ridings,” Vander Zalm said. He questions how the Liberal government can even consider forging ahead with the tax “when so many are opposed.” See VIEWPOINT, page 10

Because the government has not heeded the petition, which contains the signatures of roughly 750,000 British Columbians, Vander Zalm vows to fight on with recall campaigns. It will be a difficult task, as Elections B.C. requires that at least 40 per cent of registered voters within the constituency sign on in order for a recall campaign to be successful. Hogg said Monday he believes “in the long run” the HST is in British Columbians’ best interests. As for the recall threat, he said “I will be accountable for the decisions I make. “I honour a democratic political process our country and our province should be proud of,” Hogg said of the recall process. “We’re the only province that has recall legislation... I appreciate the process.” tzytaruk@thenownewspaper.com

❚ NEWS ❚EDUCATION/Deputy Superintendent Peter Drescher retires after 29 years

❚BRIEFLY

‘Role model, mentor’ will be missed

Crash kills woman in Whalley on Sunday

PETER DRESCHER

After 29 Ted COLLEY years in harness, Staff Reporter Surrey’s Deputy Superintendent Peter Drescher is calling it a day. Drescher, who began his Surrey school career as a vice-principal, will retire at the end of July. “He’ll be here to kind of wrap things up and help with the transition to his successor, Sharon Cohen,” said school district spokesman Doug Strachan. Cohen is one of Surrey’s five assistant superintendents. Not long after joining the district as a vice-principal, Drescher was promoted to principal of Guildford Park Secondary.

He then spent a year as principal at Semiahmoo Secondary before becoming Fleetwood Park Secondary’s first principal. Drescher went from there to become an assistant superintendent and ultimately to his present position, which he has held for nine years. Drescher’s service and accomplishments were recognized at last week’s meeting of the Surrey Board of Education where board chair Laurae McNally presented him with a clock engraved with words of appreciation for his “legacy of leadership.” His achievements include championing the district’s Vision 2010 strategic renewal process, a leadership academy

for new administrators and unfailing support for the district’s Leadership for Learning research. “Whether as a teacher, a basketball coach, a principal or a district leader, Mr. Drescher has been a role model for students and staff alike throughout his career in the Surrey school district,” McNally said. “He has been a mentor and a friend to so many people, his professionalism always perfectly seasoned with his wonderful sense of humour.” Strachan said he and Drescher worked closely together. “I’m going to miss him. He’s just great to work with.” tcolley@thenownewspaper.com

A Langley woman was killed when the SUV she was in hit a lamppost and flipped onto its roof early Sunday morning in Whalley. The crash happened at 2:50 a.m. in the 14400block of 104th Avenue. The SUV veered off the road to the right, hit the post and landed on its roof. Police said the 38-yearold woman was partially ejected from the vehicle and died at the scene. The 33-year-old Langley man with her was taken to hospital with serious injuries. At press time, police were unable to confirm who’d been driving the vehicle. Neither name has been released. “The investigation is still in its early stages and is being conducted by the Surrey RCMP traffic services criminal collision investigation team,” Surrey RCMP Const. Peter Neily said. Police are asking witnesses to contact Const. Glen Croutch at 604-5990502.

Phone scammers call the wrong guy

Considerable thought was put into the Surrey Outpatient Care and Surgery Centre’s esthetics. “We’re trying to fit into the neighbour❚PHOTO/Ted Colley hood and the forest that surrounds us,” project manager Barry Pearce told the ‘Now’ during a recent tour.

❚HEALTH/The ‘Now’ takes a look inside what will be Surrey’s new Outpatient Care and Surgery Centre

$240M facility takes shape in Green Timbers The opening of the Ted COLLEY new $240-million Surrey Staff Reporter Outpatient Care and Surgery Centre in Green Timbers is less than a year away and crews are hard at work to have it ready in time. The centre will care for patients requiring day surgery or diagnostics without needing an overnight stay. The Now was invited along on a tour of the building earlier this week to see first-hand what awaits patients and medical staff there. Before heading off to see how things are coming along, those taking the tour were given a few facts and figures from project manager, Barry Pearce. The 188,000-square-foot, four-storey build-

ing can be expanded by 30 per cent as demand grows and there’s room for a second building on the site at 140th Street and Fraser Highway. Diagnostics will occupy 44,000 square feet and more space will accommodate six operating rooms. Pearce said capacity at opening will be 650,000 visits per year. Considerable thought was given to the building’s esthetics, both inside and out. Design elements present a pleasing exterior facade, while colour has been used to good advantage. “We’re trying to fit into the neighbourhood and the forest that surrounds us,” Pearce said. Another $42 million will be spent on equipping the centre. “Our MRI arrives next month and they’re

going to remove a wall to get it into the building,” FHA’s Angela Wilson said. When open, the centre will relieve pressure on Surrey Memorial Hospital by handling an estimated 134,000 annual outpatient visits and 94,000 diagnostic procedures. It will also house a new breast health program, the first of its kind in B.C., that is expected reduce diagnosis time from up to seven months to just 21 days. The centre will also be home to a urology clinic, an HIV/ AIDS/Hepatitis C clinic and an integrated primary care clinic designed to reduce repeat emergency room visits through preventative medicine. The centre is scheduled to open in June 2011. tcolley@thenownewspaper.com

If you get a call on your phone from someone telling you you’ve won $3,000 in travel money, with the caller prompting you to “press 1,” forget about it – it’s a scam. They use the names of reputable businesses as a mask. If you press 1, you’ll get hooked up with a “representative” who’ll try to squeeze all kinds of personal information out of you. It amounts to identify theft. Recently, they called the wrong guy – Shawn Hall, spokesman for TELUS. He pressed 1, and demanded, “Why are you trying to scam me?” He then heard a click, and then an automated message telling him he had been removed from their list. “In the last couple of weeks the scam’s been out there in a big way,” Hall said. “They’re going for easy marks – don’t be an easy mark.” Anyone who falls for the bait should call his or her local police, Hall suggests. “We haven’t heard from a lot of people who’ve been stung by this,” he said. “People seem pretty savvy to this by now.” – Tom Zytaruk

sentence but his eligibility for parole must be set. His lawyer, Russ Chamberlain, said the Crown will argue that it be set at 20 years but he will argue for 10. “I’ll be suggesting something more moderate,” he said. The killings happened on June 21, 2009, at the townhouse complex at 65th Avenue and 126th Street. Neighbours at the time said Sukhwinder and her boys moved to Surrey from India about eight months prior to the shooting. The boys attended Tamanawis school. –Tom Zytaruk

LANGLEY VOLKSWAGEN HAS JOINED THE

Council approves $380K armoured rescue vehicle “At this time, MIERT has limited capacity to rescue citizens or officers in an active critical incident, particularly one where the suspect is armed with a rifle,” Cessford said in his report to council. He said an armoured rescue vehicle would allow police to remove any people, injured or otherwise, in emergency situations. Cessford said the Vancouver police department is in the final stages of acquiring one. The $380,000 cost of the vehicle will be split between the four municipalities. Delta’s portion is $114,000, which will be paid over five years.

guildford

Delta council approved the purchase, but not before some debate. Coun. Anne Peterson was skeptical that Delta will have a need for such a vehicle. “I’m not entirely convinced that Delta is the centre of a crime wave where we need an armoured car going around,” she said. “I’m not entirely convinced this is something we need in our community.” Cessford stressed it is difficult to predict what kind of crime will occur in the community and by entering into the partnership with the other departments the armoured vehicle will be there if Delta ever needs it.

FAMILY… SAME GOLD KEY – NOW VOLKSWAGEN TOO!

Delta police will Jessica soon have access to KERR Now Contributor another tool to help the department keep the public and officers safe. Chief Jim Cessford appeared before Delta council recently to ask for funding to purchase an armoured rescue vehicle. Delta is part of the Municipal Integrated Emergency Response Team (MIERT), which includes police departments from Port Moody, New Westminster and Abbotsford. The group identified a need for an armoured police vehicle due to the changing nature of criminal activity in the Lower Mainland.

Has Bill Vander Zalm replaced Carole James as the face of the opposition to the B.C. Liberal governKeith ment? BALDREY It certainly seems that way. James may be the Official Leader of Her Majesty’s Loyal Opposition, but only in the legislature and in name only. Vander Zalm, on the other hand, is the very public leader of a populist tax revolt and he’s the one getting all the ink and television news time – not the NDP leader. And it is Vander Zalm, along with his political sidekick, Chris Delaney, who seems to be calling the shots when it comes to taking on the B.C. Liberals. They are the ones crafting a recall strategy – not the NDP. James has largely been invisible the past few months. Perhaps this is by design, as she has made regional visits, garnering a bit of media coverage in smaller towns. Mike Harcourt adopted a similar strategy in the late 1980s, as he let his so-called “pit bulls” (MLAs Glen Clark, Dan Miller, Moe Sihota and Dale Lovick) hog all the face time with the major media, while he toured the province for months on end. But Harcourt ran into trouble when, out of nowhere, Gordon Wilson and his disorganized B.C. Liberal party rocketed in the polls as the ruling Social Credit party disintegrated. James had better be careful that a similar scenario doesn’t engulf her own leadership. She has always seemed to have a tenuous grip on her own party, and if her party stalls in the polls while

NDP, James must snatch limelight away from Vander Zalm

a third-party alternative catches fire with the voters, she had better watch out. These developments raise an interesting question: Can James and the NDP wrest the limelight away from the smiling, tanned, charming Vander Zalm? A number of New Democrats have assured me that when the time comes, they’ll simply elbow Vander Zalm aside, thank him for his time, and prepare to take over the reins from the B.C. Liberals in 2013. But having spent an enormous amount of time around Vander Zalm during his successful Social Credit leadership race and his less successful time in the premier’s office, I wouldn’t bet the farm on anyone making him disappear from public view. If Vander Zalm follows through on his threat to start recall campaigns against targeted B.C. Liberal MLAs, he will continue to frame the political debate in this province. It won’t be James and the NDP who are seen as the prime opponents (and alternative) to the government, it will be Vander Zalm and his merry little gang. Of course, pulling off a success-

ful recall campaign is tough business. Vander Zalm will need the signatures of at least 40 per cent of the voters in a particular riding, a goal made even tougher by the fact that the voter’s list is significantly out of date. Vander Zalm has released his “hit list” of 24 B.C. Liberal MLAs he is targeting for recall if the government doesn’t scrap the hysterical sales tax. Of those, 21 occupy seats from regions the old federal Reform Party used to sweep with some big majorities. Having underestimated the popularity of the anti-HST petition, I’m not about to totally dismiss the chances of a successful recall. The old Reform country is rich with anti-tax populism, and it’s easy to imagine a recall petition catching fire with the voters in those areas. It will be difficult to pull off, but all Vander Zalm needs is one or two winning campaigns. If he can achieve that goal, he will push James farther out of the limelight, thus weakening her leadership even further. While it’s true a fractured B.C. Liberal party is a perfect recipe for an NDP win in 2013, New Democrats had best ensure a new populist, and free-enterprise party

doesn’t catch too much fire around Vander Zalm and Delaney. Given the volatile nature of the B.C. electorate, it’s conceivable a third party could swamp the existing B.C. Liberals to the point of simply replacing them. That would put the NDP up against a single free-enterprise party again. The NDP jumped on the antiHST bandwagon for obvious political advantage. They had better hope that bandwagon doesn’t get so crowded that they end up getting pushed off it as it heads down the road. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global BC.

Seeds of change lie in protests PainfulTruth

With the G-8 and G-20 meetings in Toronto, we have been introduced to the beginning of another season of protest. Matthew The protestCLAXTON ors have descended on Toronto. They are the angry, the righteously indignant, screaming for redress and looking for a megaphone. They come because of a passionate belief in peace and non-

violent resistance; they come because they want to break things and throw rocks at cops and watch the world burn. Across from them will be the police, who lose their faces to plexiglass masks and suits of black armour. From the point of view of the organizers on both sides of the fences, it is essential that the police are faceless. If the protestors could see their faces, there might be more hesitation to throw a rock or a bottle of gasoline topped with a

Patients’ voices are finally being heard The Editor, Re: “A doctor for every family by 2015: Falcon,” the Now, June 25. This article provided valuable information about the exciting changes happening in primary care, with White Rock being one of the areas where local doctors are taking a lead role in initiating the changes. I think it is very important to comment on the involvement of Patient Voices Network in this initiative. I believe that involvement of patients in redesigning and building a better health-care system is not only precedent-setting but a key indicator that physicians, government and health authorities recognize the power and the importance of the patients’ voice. They have taken the unprecedented step of asking us – the patient, the consumer – to help design this transformative change. Politics aside, the fact that both the Ministry of Health and the B.C. Medical Association has recognized and requested to hear our voice (and listen to and value it) must be celebrated.

He gets into a line with a hundred other faceless robots and drums on his shield with a baton, the rhythm of a conquering legion. How much easier is it to swing a stick from behind that armoured, impersonal shell? How hard is it to see real people behind screamed slogans,

HST should not apply to veterinarian services The Editor, The HST continues to add insult to injury. I am absolutely appalled that the HST is being applied to veterinarian services. Due to my husband being unemployed for the past two years and the illness of our beloved canine we have almost gone bankrupt. We have paid over $6,000 in veterinarian care last year and that isn’t even including the special diet and multiple supplements or medication he needs. I shouldn’t be punished for being a responsible pet owner and doing the right thing. Congratulations Mr. Campbell. It must be nice to sit on your throne without a worry in the world and not have to live paycheque to paycheque like the average person.

Surrey beach is not a nude beach – it’s a lie

Frank Huff, Surrey

Only those who remember their history will perhaps feel a twinge. Perhaps they will think of 1789, or 1848, or 1917. They will hear the ghostly chants and shouts echoing down the long years to Toronto. The protests this summer will likely be little more than a footnote in history. But only stupid leaders don’t feel at least a twinge when they see a mob on the streets. In that mob, dormant, are seeds of a hundred new worlds. Most will never take root, but some day, one of them will change the world.

The Editor, Re: A place to shed your cares – and your clothes, the Now, June 25. I have lived in the Crescent Beach area for many years and I know the beach in the article has no history of being clothing optional. This is nothing but a lie. If any one around here knew there was a nude beach at the bottom of the stairs, we wouldn’t have bought homes here. We don’t want this quiet area turned into another wreck beach with all the problems that go along with it.

to hear real voices over the truncheon’s beat? Both sides of the lines have more in common with one another than they do with the people sitting in boardrooms and making the decisions. Some of those people are elected, many are not. They will speak in quiet voices, in soundproofed rooms where the shouts penetrate only through the selected clips screened by the news channels. When those people consider the protests outside, most will see it only as spectacle, because human memory is short. Perhaps a few from Germany or Russia will recall how a wall intended to last an age fell within months.

Apartment gunfire turned out to be from a pellet gun

DELTA – Police raced to North Delta’s Shannon Apartments late Thursday afternoon after receiving calls of multiple gunshots being fired there. Delta police secured the area with help from Emergency Response Team officers. The weapon turned out to be a pellet gun. No one was injured. Sgt. Sharlene Brooks said police

obtained a warrant to search the apartment from where the gun was believed to have been fired from, and seized various firearm parts. Police arrested a 27-year-old man and a 17-year-old girl. “Once the two individuals were removed from the apartment and secured, police cleared the apartment unit to ensure no other persons were

inside,” Brooks said. “It was quickly determined that the shots were from a pellet gun.” She added that the pair was released from custody “pending further investigation.” The incident happened in the 8000block of 118th Street when children were walking home from nearby schools. – Tom Zytaruk

A Surrey pot grower who had a secret door to his crop in the laundry room of his family home has been sentenced to nine months in prison. Trung Van Nguyen, 35, pleaded guilty to growing pot in his home in Surrey and was sentenced by Justice J. Christopher Grauer in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster. The Surrey RCMP had searched the house on May 4, 2005 and found a “sophisticated” marijuana growing operation in the basement crawl space that contained 947 plants in various stages of growth. Grauer noted that Nguyen had a rotating crop system going that produced a crop worth about $50,000 every two weeks. The court heard that the grow op, which was operated by an illegal B.C. Hydro bypass, took up most of the four-foothigh crawlspace and was accessed by a stairway under a trap door in the floor of a closet inside the laundry room. The equipment used to grow the pot, Grauer noted, was worth about $14,000. The police also found two bricks of cash – more than $30,000 – wrapped in aluminum foil, inside a safe deposit box. The court heard that Nguyen had fled Vietnam as a boat person in 1988 and lived in a refugee camp in the Philippines for three years before immigrating to Canada with his parents, three sisters and brother in 1991. He was married in 1997 and has two daughters. His wife, Thi Men Tran, was a co-accused but the court has stayed charges against her. The maximum penalty for running a marijuana growing operation is seven years in prison.

❚GARDENING

Recycling program launched this week If you’re a hobby gardener, Tom ZILLICH planting is pretty much done Staff reporter for the season — but what to do about the growing mountain of plastic pots that once held those prized perennials and annuals? Welcome to National Plastic Recycling Week, which runs from June 28 to July 5. A group of B.C.’s garden centres have come together to participate in the inaugural event, designed to offer gardeners an environmentally responsible way to dispose of their plastic plant pots, plant packs and plastic trays. The problem is, all that garden-related plastic is not accepted by curbside recycling programs in some municipalities. The multitude of plastics with various recycling codes, and the fact it is difficult to remove all soil from the pots, means most municipal blue-bin programs do include them. “Every one of the municipalities is different, and that’s a challenge,” said Lesley Tannen, executive director of BC Landscape & Nursery Association. This week’s pot-recycling initiative is led by the Canadian Nursery Landscape Association and its member associations, including Surreybased BC Landscape & Nursery Association (BCLNA). Art’s Nursery in Surrey accepts gardenrelated plastics for recycling throughout the year, but in limited numbers. This week, unlimited numbers of plastic pots, trays and packs can be dropped off at the Art’s location at 8940 192nd St., and five other sites in the province. “We’ve already been getting calls from people who don’t live in the communities of participating retailers, saying, ‘What about us?’ Tannen said. “Hopefully, the program can be expanded after this trial-balloon week. This is the first year for this, an experiment.” Environmental horticulture companies have been working on alternatives to plastic pots for some years, and more and more garden centres are now able to offer vegetable and flower plants in a variety of biodegradable

containers. For plants like perennials, shrubs and trees that live longer in their nursery pots, growers and garden retailers are looking for and testing the durability of containers made from coconut husk, rice hull, paper-fibre, cow manure “paper,” and even chicken feathers. But until clear winners arise that will stand up to sun, rain, watering, machine and human handling, and shipping, plastics remain the most-used option in the industry. “It’s the diversity of crops that makes plastic plant-pot recycling a bit of a challenge,” said Tannen, who previously worked with the Downtown Surrey Business Improvement Association. “Pots made to hold trees for several years before they get transplanted into your garden are made from different plastics than those that only take a season or two. Different plants can have very different growing requirements, and the containers used in horticulture are designed to fit these needs.” The high time for plant-buying season is from Victoria Day until the third week of June, Tannen said. That’s why the recycling program is up and running this week.

Richmond-based West Coast Plastic Recycling is developing ways to manage horticultural plastics like pots and greenhouse film. The company is a partner in the recyling program this week and will pick up plastics at the retail outlets, which include Art’s Nursery in Surrey, Cannor Nursery in Abbotsford, GardenWorks in Burnaby, Minter Country Garden Store in Chilliwack, Nico’s Nurseryland in Salmon Arm and the West Coast Plastic Recycling plant. Plastic pots of the #6 variety will not be accepted, she emphasized. “People need to check the bottom of the pots for that number. A lot of those (pots) are colours other than green and black, but not consistently.” Gardeners can help by tapping excess soil off their used pots, stacking them by size, and dropping them off in the designated spot during regular business hours. “We don’t want the participating retailers to be overwhelmed during this recycling program,” Tannen said, “so the public is asked not to drop off items that are not plastic pots.” tzillich@thenownewspaper.com

Horse whisperer inspired by equine wisdom Powerful flanks Irene BUTLER move in easy rhythm. Now contributor Prima is the first to reach me. I see my reflection in her gentle ebony eye as she tucks her nose against my cheek and whinnies a greeting. Paschar nuzzles in next, followed by Micah. Among these warmbloods (sport horse breeds), I notice two Shetland Ponies, and… what?! A bull, his stocky form nonchalantly munching hay alongside several large equines. “That’s Tesoro, meaning treasure in Spanish,” said Liz Mitten Ryan, “and yes, he thinks he’s a gallant steed.” The 15-horse/one-bull Ryan menagerie also includes four dogs and two cats that romp around like inseparable buddies. My husband, Rick, and I are on the outskirts of Kamloops at Gateway2 Ranch, owned by horse whisperer, author and artist Liz and her architect husband Kevin. The Ryans were intuitively drawn to this 320-acre ranch 10 years ago. Secluded for a decade with her equines in the rolling grasslands, forests and endless sky, Liz spent her days running, playing, training, observing these joyful, reckless creatures until she knew their every nuance and became, in her own words, “one with the herd” — a lifechanging journey. From here, her story takes on a series of bizarre twists. She began writing about her experiences, but even the close bond with her horses did not lessen Liz’s shock when, telepathically,

these magnificent beings started to communicate their perspective on oneness with the creator of all things. “My animals’ message to humans is that they want to be recognized as equal spirits,” says Liz. “They feel humans have been steadily removing themselves from the interconnection of everything in the universe — the divine spark of God in all things. They say the way to do this is to listen to our intuition or higher consciousness and to live our truth, just as animals live their truth each in their own God-given way.” Liz has co-authored four books in three years with her horses, with contributions by her dogs and cats and images of her paintings. These books won eight Independent Publishing awards at Book Expo America in Los Angeles in 2008. “The Truth According to Horses was entirely conceived and authored by Premiere Edition (a.k.a. Prima) and the Herd,” says Liz. “It won a Nautilus Book Award for 2009, making Prima the first horse in history to win a literary award.” The ranch itself has recently drawn attention. Since day one, this land “felt” different to the Ryans, which they attributed to their emotional ties, but when visitors were enveloped by strange sensations, she invited Billa, a renowned shaman, to walk the land. Billa detected the vortexes of two mega electro-magnetic energy fields with L-rods (dowsing tools for detecting energy auras). Liz leads us to Billa’s findings. Near

discovered by Billa is at the end of a spiny path, where curved rocky ledges form a head-like shape. A higher mass of rock bulges like a third eye at the place the “head” ends in the second vortex. At some unknown time, this powerhouse of nature drew lightening, leaving a gigantic tree charred and standing upright that, Liz says, now acts as a channel to release this earth energy into the ether. It is here I feel an inexplicable surge of vertigo. After we left Gateway2, an expert in geomancy (divination by means of lines, figures and geographic features) found more prominent energy fields, and claimed this land was more complete with full-spectrum natural wonders than any he had ever witnessed. Liz feels the powerful forces on this land may have heightened her and the horses’ capability to resonate at a higher level of consciousness and clear the channels of communication — the link that allowed this horse whisperer to be directly inspired by equine wisdom. Swaddled in Liz and Kevin’s warm blanket of hospitality, rosy-cheeked from our rambling about the land and frolicking with the Ryan’s animal family, we left the ranch spiritually enriched — and with much to ponder. ❚ For more information on Liz and Gateway2, go to www.lizmittenryan.com.

❚ LIVING ❚PARENTING

I’m jumping at chance to not be so late in life Mom’sLife

If you’ve ever seen the movie Alice in Wonderland, then you are familiar with the white rabbit who sings the tune: “I’m late, I’m late, for a very important date, no time to say hello, goodbye, I’m late, I’m late, I’m late.” In this respect, I find myself in the same predicament as the white rabbit — in a constant state of tardiness. Kelley I used to blame it on the children. I would SCARSBROOK think that if they had been a bit faster eating their breakfast or putting on their clothes quicker or played less when going somewhere, we would be right on time. But the other day, when I was rushing my son off to school, he turned to me and said, “You know, I’ve been ready for 20 minutes mom — and was waiting for you.” And it gave me pause. Was it them or was it — gasp! — me who was the actual doddler?

Many articles have been written on chronic tardiness that focus on the procrastinator or the highly disorganized person who has poor time-management skills. But that couldn’t me, could it? After all the time management and “balance” courses I’ve taken, how could I be facing that very same dilemma? But after spending a night reflecting on my past history with school, jobs and appointments, I realized that the pattern had always been there. I would usually start off on time (even considerably early in some circumstances) with classes and jobs, but eventually the honeymoon stage would wear off after a few short weeks. I would discover that I was a couple of minutes late. It was easy to dismiss it as a “one off” and not stress too much about it. However, a week later it would be five minutes, then the week after that it was 10 minutes until, eventually, I was really late each day. I would have excuses ready that blamed the traffic, the

PLANTAR FASCIITIS?

• Pain in the heel of your foot? • First steps in the morning are the worst? • Can’t wear your favourite pair of shoes?

❚PARENTING

Don’t just mask the PAIN temporarily!

‘Drop-dead’ time and other concepts alarm clock, my shower, etc., until I would run out of excuses, because let’s face it, it can’t always be the traffic. I have to admit when looking back now, it was simply me who was causing me to be late. Some say people who are tardy are selfish, as they steal time from others. They like being centre of attention or don’t care about other people’s time. For me, I think that I am simply a poor planner. I tend to underestimate how long something will take me. It’s not that I don’t care about the time of others; rather, I haven’t been able to fully appreciate the concept of “drop-dead” time. Meaning: When it’s time to go, it’s time — no excuses.” But like anything in life, we have a

choice. I can choose to continue the behavior and stress everyone around me (including myself), or I can choose to change it. I know that being late is not a behavior that I want for my kids, and I think more than anything, that is what drives me to change it. Today my children and I cheered when we got to school on time, with ample time to play and relax before the bell rang. Sometimes even a white rabbit can change their tune.

Brian Jungen, Douglas Terry PETERS & McIntyre, 176 pages, CanWest News Service $40. There is magic at work in the brilliant creations by Brian Jungen. The skill at which Jungen transforms the items of everyday into pieces of beauty and wonder is amazing. The massive whale skeleton built of plastic lawn chairs oozes power as it hangs like the neutral buoyancy of its real life model. The scale of this sculpture is enormous, making it impossible to avoid. Jungen’s stacked objects are sublime in their message. The perfectly finished surface of the pallets made of red cedar speak to a native craftsmanship but are used in an object that is normally discarded as soon as it shows signs of wear. The stacks of plastic meal trays used in his work Isolated Depiction of the Passage of Time each represent an incarcerated Native Indian in Canadian prisons with the colours depicting different lengths of sentences. The transformation of Nike Air Jordan running shoes into Native masks in his “Prototype of New Understanding” series is mystical in its combination of a ancient art form and a modern cult figure. The visually stunning art is beautifully

reproduced in this first book to document Jungen’s work. Five essays and an interview by Simon Starling provide insight into this remarkable young artist.

Close-ups in photog’s collection

Lickshot, Princeton Architectural Press, 208 pages, $62. Bikers, surfers, celebrities, rock stars, the homeless: are all welcome subjects to photographer Ben Watts. If doesn’t matter whoever attracts his attention, once they have it then Watts will move in. His up-close style is well suited to the scrapbook presentation. Watts has pulled together an eclectic selection of his work. All of it has Watts’ personal stamp on it. Whether it be the graffiti applied to a portrait or parts of a photo covered with tape, Watts is having fun with his art. The strong studio portraits are mixed in with street images and wild outtakes of different sessions. Heath Ledger shows off some moves on his skateboard and looks as relaxed at what he’s doing as the Wheelie Boyz motorcycle gang do while pulling tricks on their bikes. For Watts it is all about style and if you have it then in front of his camera you are a star.

Wanting the“perfect” Luscious Lips? Today, fuller more voluptuous looking lips are considered sexually attractive in both men and women. Regardless of your age, the size and shape of your lips, a fuller pout is the key to younger, sexy looking lips. Typically lips begin showing their age anywhere from your 30’s – 40’s. The good news? You don’t have to wait for aging to take its toll. Thanks to new nonsurgical procedures thicker, plumper lips may be had in next to no time.

ULTIMATE SUMMER CLEARANCE

Maybe you’ve always had thin lips, or they’ve started to narrow over time, skinny lips are due to a lack of collagen (the quality of which deteriorates over time). Hands down, the sun is the number one factor for breaking down existing lip collagen leading to lack of volume. The best protection of course is lip balm or lip stick containing SPF protection.

SAVE 25 - 50

At Katanna, we use Hyaluronic acid-based fillers, like Juvederm and Restylane which can be injected into the lips to add volume. While results are not permanent, you can expect your new lips to stay fuller for about six to nine months as the body slowly, naturally absorbs the filler leaving behind no visible bumps or unevenness.

THANKS TO YOU WE’RE Memory ‘blind spots’ and the high school reunion NUMBER ONE! ❚ LIVING

❚YOUR HEALTH

In terms of the decades that have passed since graduation, the short span of five years we went to high school doesn’t seem that significant. Yet it was during a critical time in our lives. As adolescents, our brains, bodies and emotions were changing, growing and breaking out. Though we may not have been fighting with one another, we wrestled with our own emotions, our selfesteem and our sense of self-worth. During high school, many of us had our first loves and met our best friends. We had many situational friends, classmates and teammates we once hung out with, but from whom we would eventually drift away. We learned to deal with nice and not-sonice people, bullies and prejudice. Whether we were visible minorities or not, we were all either victims or perpetrators of prejudice; we judged and treated one another according to superficial appearances — how we looked and how we dressed. High school somehow tolerated intolerance and mean-spirited behaviour more than most preschools, elementary schools, colleges and workplaces do. However, as my adult patients relate to me, bullies manage to continue their bad behaviour in the adult world in many companies and businesses.

Recently, 80 of my classmates from Burnaby North came together for a reunion at Anducci’s. Though 80 per cent of the class couldn’t make it, I was impressed by those who did. They Davidicus filled the restaurant, WONG spilling on to the patio — old classmates reconnecting in an emotional evening. Those who weren’t there didn’t come for a variety of reasons. Some didn’t know about it, while some had moved away and couldn’t be tracked down. Some of my friends felt that they had grown up so much from high school that they had no interest in going back. Some felt that they already kept in touch with everyone they wanted. Some may have had memories they just didn’t want to revisit. Some may have been embarrassed that they no longer looked like their teenaged selves, though none of us did. Those who did come to the reunion had their own reasons. There are always some old friends with whom you just lose touch. There is the morbid curiosity of how the popular kids aged. There is that nasty, schadenfreude hope that your former arch enemies, the mean girls and the bullies met up with karma.

Dynamic Blood Analysis consists of analyzing the blood as both a live and dried sample using a specialized microscope. Since the blood circulates throughout every cell of our being, it provides us with a clear picture of the state of physical and mental/emotional health.

• Breakfast for two at Samuel’s By The Park restaurant • Pool, jacuzzi, sauna and ﬁtness area

The best thing denture wearers can do if their denture is more than 3 years old and it has not been looked at by a dental professional, is to call our ofﬁce. I’d be happy to see you and give you some complimentary advice. Don’t wait until you feel like something is wrong - that’s how irreversible damage to the structure that supports the denture can occur, and that is exactly what we would like to prevent. Call us today for your complimentary consultation.

We are often unsure of what to take or do in order to feel better. Dynamic Blood Analysis allows your body to reveal exactly what is needed right now, whether it be dietary adjustments, lifestyle changes, key supplements and remedies, or speciﬁc therapies.

We create psychological constructs or simplifications of reality to make sense of our world. We often do this with the most changeable of entities, other human beings. We might recognize how much we change, but we often assume that others don’t. So our memories and feelings about old classmates can be as black and white as their old high school photos. We remember them as we thought they were. Everyone took a double take of Cal, who no longer had his trademark frizzy Anglo afro. This was ironic because he had spent most of his adult life with short hair.

As with our families of origin and maybe more so, we can hold rigid caricatures of high school characters, and though they may seem larger than life characters in our minds, in reality they are complex individuals with qualities more grey and coloured than black and white. Well, maybe one guy was larger than life in high school, but in retrospect, he had a bipolar mood disorder. Our memories for those years are also focused and incomplete. In our minds, we can make minor events bigger than life. Talking to old classmates we discover that we each remember events a little differently. We remember selectively, some-

Two down, one race to go in the Baja

Sports

Terrence Michael BOOTH “Crazy T” Sports Editor Peregoodoff is taking the iron man concept to a whole new level. Iron man triathletes are impressive enough but what Peregoodoff is attempting may well be off the charts. The 40-year-old South Surrey motorcycle enthusiast is attempting to successfully complete the Baja 250, Baja 500 and Baja 1,000 races solo in the same year. A stuntman in the film industry, Peregoodoff has completed the first two events but with the Baja 1,000 awaiting him in the fall, he knows he’s not even at the halfway mark. Peregoodoff is no stranger to the rugged terrain of Mexico’s Baja Peninsula. He has competed in all of the races before but only the Baja 250 as a solo rider. The other events were part of a team effort under the banner of Team Nutbar Racing. As a team rider, he would be assigned to ride specific parts of the course before being spelled off by another rider. As a solo racer, the racing and the planning is much more involved. “When you’re riding solo it really is a different race than when you’re with a team,” he said. “When you’re by yourself, you have to supply everything you need and you have to arrange for all of your pit needs. When you are on a team you have a lot more people helping out; there’s more hands to dive in and retrieve you if you need it or bring you things you need. When you’re solo you’re on your own.” Peregoodoff hooked up with fellow Canucks Duane Dickinson (Tsawwassen) and Jeff Sanca (Port Moody) to form Canadian Desert Racing, a team of solo motorcycle racers. Riding a Yamaha WR450-F sponsored by Western Power Sports, was not alone on the course. In addition to the other CDR members, wife Kari Helzel and Yukon resident Phil Robertson helped out in support and Peregoodoff contracted Baja Pits to handle any mechanical needs that might arise. With all of the details in order, Peregoodoff was ready to ride. First up was the Baja 250 March 15-17. Peregoodoff spent months preparing for the race, including preriding the course more than 10 times. All of that preparation went out the window when he struck a boulder at 130 kilometres per hour and was sent hurtling over the handlebars. His body acted as a shield for the bike, which escaped without

Terrence Peregoodoff rolls through the pit area during the Baja 250 in March. damage. Peregoodoff was not so lucky as he sustained a concussion in the crash. He spent 30 minutes collecting his wits as well as all of the scattered equipment before rejoining the race. He ended up completing the course in seven hours, 30 minutes, good enough for fifth overall in 40-and-over expert class and second among solo riders in the class. Peregoodoff was third overall among all soloists — cars, trucks, quads and bikes — and 69th overall among all finishers in all classes. “I’m extremely lucky to be alive,” Peregoodoff said. “I had to ride the final 120 miles or so with a concussion so I guess it was a good result. With all the time I spent in the pits and everything else, by the end of the race I thought I was racing just to finish. When I finished I still felt physically strong but my head was in a cloud.” Peregoodoff spent the next couple of days in bed and needed almost a month to get over the effects of the concussion. By the time his head cleared, he was anxious to get back on the bike in preparation for the Baja 500 June 5. Peregoodoff is also making a documentary about the Canadian racers in the Baja events but the distractions that come with the monitoring and using helmet cams were the least of his worries in the Baja 500.

A monster storm ravaged the Baja in February, causing extensive damage and reworking much of the landscape. The storm affected the route for the Baja 500 and even the parts that were the same had new features and hazards. If the storm damage wasn’t enough, residents of the area did their best to make the course even more challenging for the racers. “You never know what is going to happen on any day, whether it’s mechanical problems, weather conditions or the things the locals do,” Peregoodoff said with a shrug. “The spectators have a way of altering the race track. They create booby traps on the course to try and create wrecks or they take signs away or point the arrows in the opposite directions. “There were a lot of signs changed this year and if you don’t have a good sense of where you are, you’re going to end up in another town.” The race did not start well for Peregoodoff. In the first hour he took a golf ball-sized rock off the forehead that left him bloodied. Then at roughly the 90-mile mark, he stopped to help another solo rider retrieve his bike from a ravine. Ironically, the rider he helped went on to be the first solo rider to finish. Unlike in the Baja 250 in March, the temperatures in the desert for

the Baja 500 were extreme, pushing to almost 140 degrees Fahrenheit (54 Celcius). Peregoodoff ran into dehydration problems that hampered his efforts in the middle stages of the race. He recovered enough to stay in contention but overcame another hazard late in the race when a dune buggy ran him off the road on a narrow stretch of canyon trail. Peregoodoff overcame these issues to complete the course in 17 hours, 12 minutes. He was first in the 40-expert class and second overall behind the rider he had helped earlier. As a group, the Canadian Desert Racing riders placed fifth overall among motorcycle teams. “Yeah, I helped the guy that beat me but that’s fine,” Peregoodoff said good-naturedly. “You have to do what you have to do down there because there’s so much other crap going on. If it were me in need, it would be nice if somebody would stop and help me out.” So with 750 miles of bone jarring, butt-numbing riding behind him, Peregoodoff is turning his attention to the biggest test of all — the Baja 1,000 in November. “The way I look at it is other people have done it so I can do it too,” he said. “I don’t see a reason why I can’t. If you can do it, I can do it and nobody can tell me I can’t.”

❚New soccer coach at Kwantlen

Kwantlen Polytechnic University has hired Gordon Smith for the position of head coach of the Eagles women’s soccer program. Smith, a Vancouver native, is a former student-athlete from the UBC Thunderbirds men’s soccer program (19931996). He has an extensive background in coaching, and team and athlete development. He holds a master’s degree in education with a specific focus on advanced coaching, Smith joins the Eagles program after spending nine years teaching at West Point Grey Academy. In 2008, he coached the Grey Wolves to a bronze medal finish at the “A” Provincial and National CAIS soccer tournaments. The Kwantlen Eagles women’s soccer team captured Kwantlen’s first BCCAA provincial championship in 2009, and a CCAA National bronze medal.

Nick Taylor had a bye into the Travelers as a result of his Ben Hogan win and will receive more I am sure, and in the long run, Nick looks like he has what it takes to make the tour. However, soon to be new pro like Nick Taylor, and new pro Matt Hill should they be working up to the main tour by focusing on the Nationwide, Canadian or European Tour building up tour toughness before they tackle Q School in the fall or is the route of exemption, after finishing their amateur career, in the case of Nick, the right route.

TWO ELITE

MENTS! NA b o y t o V h i s ion Qu UR P e

It’s tough on the tour. Just look at a young man like Justin Rose, who took 12 years to win a tournament in the U.S. – Jack Nicklaus’s at Memorial.

I don’t know the answer, I am only asking the question. The RCGA sets the path for these young men, and their selected colleges finish up the training – then what happens when they turn pro.

CEL E

I know we are turning out some outstanding juniors in the form of Eugene Wong, Jack Nicklaus Award, Nick Taylor Ben Hogan Award, just to name a few, but over the years we have had other strong juniors who have made the jump to the PGA, but have not stuck. The question is, are we providing them with the support they need? I am talking about the young players, for that first crucial year on any pro tour.

I know one thing; the Canadian Tour could gain a lot of traction with fans and sponsors if these young men came out and played on that tour, with the odd exemption into the top tour, before heading to Q School in the fall. A lot of pros, like Mike Weir, Jason Bohn and Steve Stricker, honed their skills in this country.

Fun Fair Games, Food, Festivities For The Whole Family! July 5 - 11

Talking about Nick, he came so close to making the cut on the PGA Tour this past weekend. He was one stroke way – make the cut, have two great rounds and you move up the ladder, which means more exemptions.

Right now, Graham DeLaet finished in 68th place on the weekend and is now 107 on the money list. Stephen Ames leads the way at number 71, with Mike Weir dropping down to 108. ***************************************************************** Alena Sharp is leading our Canadian women on the LPGA Tour in 57th place and then it drops down to 93 with Lori Kane, and 94 for Samantha Richdale. Samantha should be given some slack here as this is her first year on the tour.

We have some great young players in the development stage, and it will be interesting to see how there game shapes up once they play on a pro tour week after week. The next couple of years will tell us a lot about our upcoming junior and collegiate players.

Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a Sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must ﬁll each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can ﬁgure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

❚AUTOMOTIVE ❚TRAVEL

Before you hit the road this summer, remember that taking proper care of your vehicle can help ensure a stress-free road trip. Vehicle maintenance and the kind of gasoline you choose can make a difference. Before your summer road trip, there are simple ways to get your vehicle ready for the road to help you get the most out of every tank of gasoline. ❚ Make sure your car is ready for the trip Always make sure that your car is properly prepared for a long summer journey by checking your fluids, including brake, power steering, transmission/transaxle, windshield washer solvent and antifreeze. ❚ Use cruise control on major roads and in free-flowing traffic ❚ Avoid idling. When the car idles, it wastes gasoline, and you are getting exactly 0 km/litre. ❚ Avoid higher speeds. In general, increasing your speed from 100 km/h to 120 km/h will increase fuel consumption by about 20 per cent.

Canada Day

Surrey’s party among biggest in the west The City of Surrey and Coast Capital Savings are proud to present Surrey Canada Day 2010 at Millennium Amphitheatre, at 64th Avenue and 172nd Street in Cloverdale. This celebration has grown to become one of the largest Canada Day events in Western Canada with a record attendance last year of more than 125,000 people. This year’s main stage, presented by Chevron, boasts another stellar Canadian lineup featuring chart-topping 1980s band Honeymoon Suite, The Odd, Stereos, Dragonette and more. Admission is free. The day’s events are capped by the Fruiticana Fireworks finale. “Our Canada Day celebration will once again be one of the largest events in Canada, with outstanding musical acts and lots of fun and entertainment for the entire family,” said Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts. “I’m proud to be Canadian and live in such a strong, culturally diverse and vibrant country. July 1st is a day to celebrate who we are and what we’ve been able to accomplish, and to appreciate the important cultural traditions that have shaped

I hope everyone will join me in celebrating Canada’s birthday.” On Thursday, July 1, the action starts at 10 a.m. and continues until 10:30 p.m. In addition to the all-day concert performances, Surrey Canada Day will also have a host of family-friendly activities and entertainment, including Shooting Star Amusement Rides featuring the Gravitron and the Zipper, interactive games and bouncy castles for the kids. Seniors can look forward to an impressive gathering for the annual Strawberry Tea, hosted by Watts and members of Surrey city council. For more details, visit www.canadaday. surrey.ca.

Surrey’s Canada Day

A guide to performers CHEVRON MAIN STAGE Honeymoon Suite (9 to 10:15 p.m.) Honeymoon Suite originally formed in 1982 by singer Johnnie Dee with the songwriters Derry Grehan (guitar) and Ray Coburn (keyboards), as well as Gary Lalonde (bass guitar) and Dave Betts (drums). Coburn was replaced by Rob Preuss in 1986. Honeymoon Suite’s spirited, commercial style rock music was supported by the thennew promotional medium of music videos and brought the band success quickly. The band’s ﬁrst LP, Honeymoon Suite, issued in 1984, included “New Girl Now,” an international hit which led to several tours in the U.S. (as an opening act for Jethro Tull, Journey, Heart, etc.) and Canada. In June 2007, the band officially announced the return of a reunited classic lineup. The band toured extensively throughout Canada in 2007 and 2008 and then entered the studio to record a new album. Singing of O’ Canada with Mark Donnelly (8:50 p.m.) Join Mark Donnelly, best known for singing the anthem at the Vancouver Canucks hockey game, for the singing of “O’ Canada.”

You know how it goes: he sings, we sing, he sings, we cheer! It’ll make the hair on your arms stand up! The Odds (7:45 to 8:30 p.m.) When you spend over 20 years playing in a band like Canadian power-pop legends Odds, you pick up a few stories along the way. After four albums and hits like “It Falls Apart”, “Eat My Brain”, “Make You Mad” and “Someone Who’s Cool”, they returned in 2008 with the LP Cheerleader. The group then threw itself into a strange and exotic endeavour — storytime theatre. They weave ideas and war stories between performing the songs with running visuals and effects. Look for clips on the Odds’ website (www. oddsmusic.com) and for them to take it on the road in 2010. Surrey Celebration Dance Team (7:20 to 7:30 p.m.) The SCDT was created as a joint partnership between the City of Surrey and the Arts Council of Surrey. These 20 young dancers ages 16-24 are Surrey’s up and coming talent and performed at the Surrey Torch Relay and Surrey 2010 Celebration Site. Having trained at some of the best studios

Stereos hit the stage with their girl-friendly party rock from 6:30 to 7:10 p.m.

in the Lower Mainland, they are looking forward to this professional opportunity and to represent our city through dance.

Jobs before a twist of fate (you call it MuchMusic) turned made them “instant” pop stars.

Stereos (6:30 to 7:10 p.m.) Behind almost every overnight success story is an untold tale of toil. So yes, the chart-storming, inked-up lads of Stereos seem to have come out of nowhere (they call it Edmonton) with their seasonal smash “Summer Girl.” But the ﬁve band members spent a good half-decade hunkered down — writing songs in basements, doing time in other bands and working soul-crushing Mc-

Dragonette (5:30 to 6:10 p.m.) God created the earth. Boy (Dan Kurtz) meets Girl (Martina Sorbara). Boy marries Girl. Boy and Girl make a demo in their basement called “I Get Around.” Boy and Girl put together band (Enter Will Stapleton and Joel Stouffer). Radio plays “I Get Around” incessantly. “Galore” gets released. Someone unrelated to the band calls it see page 8

Surrey’s Canada Day from page 6 “probably the best record of 2007. “Another calls it “pop music the way that pop music should be: overblown, daring, and incredibly charismatic.” The band releases the 2nd album’s title track (“Fixin To Thrill”) to great fanfare from people who spend a lot of time in front of computer screens. Band ﬁnds a kindred spirit (Chris Huggett) to step into the guitarist chair. Band ﬁnishes second album and books tour dates across the globe. Other nice people ask to help spread the word further. Band hopes for a few more chapters and a happy ending. Jessie Farrell (4:30 p.m.) Jessie Farrell is Canadian country artist signed to 604/Universal. The flame-haired Vancouverite had wrapped-up her debut on the Canadian Country scene with three 2008 CCMAs when she lit out to Nashville on a writing expedition in mid-2008, winning for Female Artist of the Year, Rising Star, and Top New Female Talent of the Year, not to mention scoring a 2009 Juno nomination for New Artist of the Year. Ridley Bent (3:30 to 4:10 p.m.) Alone, or with his band, Ridley Bent brings a level of commitment to his performances so complete the audience can’t help going where he takes them. “He’s not strut-

ting around the stage,” said one observer, “he’s standing there like Hank Sr., holding his ground.” More and more, people can’t help but notice; Ridley was nominated for Songwriter of the Year at the 2006 Western Canadian Music Awards. In 2008 he received three Canadian Country Music Award nominations, nine British Columbia Country Music Award nominations and was the winner of the Ray Mcauley Horizon Award as well as the Edmonton Folk Festival’s Galaxie Rising Star Award. Ridley has also toured with Corb Lund, Doc Walker and hit major

Canadian Folk Fests like Vancouver, Winnipeg, Calgary and Hillside. Shiamak’s Bollywood Jazz (3 to 3:20 p.m.) Combines Indian styles with western techniques, adding the energy, colour, flavour of Bollywood to dance. Dreams: Tribute to Fleetwood Mac (2 to 2:40 p.m.) From the music to the costumes, Dreams portrays Fleetwood Mac with incredible au-

thenticity. This is deﬁnitely a show you won’t want to miss. When you sit back and reminisce about the 1970s and 1980s music, one of the top bands to grace the charts was Fleetwood Mac. Even today, 30-plus years later, you can still hear their music on the radio stations around the world. It was with that thought in mind that Dreams was born. The cast of Dreams takes great pride being able to replicate the Fleetwood Mac sound so closely that it’s difﬁcult to tell the difference. Get going and get grooving to Dreams. see page 12

Canada Day

Celebrate true Canadian spirit in your community This Canada Day, we have a lot to celebrate. Our athletes won 14 gold medals at the Winter Olympics — more than any nation has ever won in a Winter Olympics. We live in one of the most culturally-diverse countries in the world, and other nations generally see us as polite, funny and friendly. But did you know that Canadians are a very giving bunch too? Whether it’s stepping up and donating millions to Haiti’s earthquake earlier this year, organizing large-scale fundraisers, or contributing thousands of volunteer hours, Canadians have impacted millions of lives around the world. This July 1, participate in these activities to carry on the Canadian spirit of giving: ❚ Volunteer at a soup kitchen or food bank. Learn about the needs of those in your community and help to feed the hungry. ❚ Share your talents at a seniors’ centre. If you can juggle, sing, dance, or make people laugh, use your skill to brighten someone else’s day. ❚ Host a neighbourhood potluck. Swap food, stories, and experiences as you get to know the people in your immediate community. ❚ Make a donation to help the poorest

North Delta’s Canada Day celebration at Chalmers Park Elsewhere, the maple leaf will ﬂy at North Delta’s Chalmers Park during an evening event to celebrate Canada Day, from 6 to 10:30 p.m. at 11400 76A Ave. There will be plenty of children’s activities, barbecued food, a family-friendly concert and entertainers Bobs & Lolo. The ﬁreworks show starts at 10:15 p.m.; bring picnic blankets and lawn chairs. of the poor. Visit an international children’s charity like Christian Children’s Fund of Canada to help the most vulnerable victims of poverty. You can provide clean water to an entire community

Canada Day trivia

How well do you know Canada? Canada’s ﬁrst prime minister was named John. How many other prime ministers have borne that ﬁrst name? Answer: In addition to John A. Macdonald, four men named John have held the post of prime minister — John J.C. Abbott, John Sparrow Thompson, John George Diefenbaker and John Napier Turner. How heavy is a regulation curling rock? Answer: According to the World Curling Federation, a curling rock must weigh between 17 and 20 kilograms (38 and 44 pounds). It must also be circular, with a circumference of no more than 910 millimetres (36 inches) and a height of at least 110 millimetres (4.5 inches). Which province held the two largest prisoner-of-war camps in the country during the Second World War? Answer: Canada’s two largest prisoner-ofwar camps during the Second World were located in Alberta –one in Medicine Hat and the other in Lethbridge. There were 26 such camps in the country during that war. Camps were also located in Ontario, Quebec and New Brunswick. How often does Canada conduct its national census?

Answer: The 1971 version of the Statistics Act requires a national census be done every five years. Canada’s first Census Act (1870) stipulated a 10-year interval, but that was eventually found to be inadequate. In addition to conducting a census every five years, Statistics Canada carries out more than 300 other active surveys on various aspects of Canadian life. Some time in the last half of the 18th century, more than 2,000 people lost their lives in a natural disaster in British Columbia. What was the nature of the catastrophe? Answer: A volcano called the Tseax Cone erupted, spewing out lava that dammed the Tseax River and formed Lava Lake. Folklore tells of the devastation, which scientists have been able to date to between 1750 and 1775. The Tseax Cone, also called the Tseax River Cone or the Aiyansh, is about 60 kilometres north of Terrace, B.C. Who was the first U. S. president to make an official visit to Canada? Answer: In 1923, Warren Harding became the first sitting American president to visit Canada. While Chester Arthur paid personal visits to Canada — some even say he was born here — he never made a state visit. Nor did Woodrow Wilson, although the Woodrow

Wilson Center in Washington, D.C., is home to the Canada Institute, which explores relations between the two countries. Dwight Eisenhower, in 1953, was the ﬁrst U.S. president to address Parliament. Wayne Gretzky was named an ofﬁcer of the Order of Canada in 1984, while he was playing for the Oilers. In what year did he accept the honour? Answer: Since the investiture ceremonies are always held during the hockey season, it was 1998 by the time The Great One was actually invested into the Order. A silver dollar struck in 1949 to mark Newfoundland’s entry into Canada bears the image of a ship. Whose ship was it? Answer: The coin depicts the Matthew, the ship on which John Cabot made his famous discovery of the island in 1497. Canada’s chartered banks were allowed to issue their own currencies until what year? Answer: The Bank Act of 1935 set 1944 as the last year that individual banks would be allowed to issue currency. Since then, only the Bank of Canada has issued our money. In 1950, all the outstanding notes that had been issued by chartered banks before 1945 became

the liability of the Bank of Canada — meaning that old money still has value. What legendary entertainer from France was named an honorary ofﬁcer of the Order of Canada in 2008? Answer: Actor, singer, composer Charles Aznavour received the honour from Governor General Michaelle Jean. The 84-year-old Aznavour has appeared in more than 60 movies and sold more than 100 million records. Oct. 23 of last year was the 50th anniversary of the Springhill Mining Disaster. Which member of the Royal Family was in Canada at the time and visited the site? Answer: Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, who had been at meetings in Ottawa, visited the site on Oct. 31, 1958, while rescue efforts were still in progress. What singer took the name of Issa in 2006? Answer: Issa was born Jane Siberry in 1955. The singer-songwriter’s works include Bound by the Beauty (1989), When I Was a Boy (1993) and Hush (2000). Dragon Dreams (2008)was her ﬁrst album released under the name Issa. Issa is said to be a feminine form of the biblical name Isaiah. Source: Edmonton Journal
