August 20, 2013 edition of the Surrey North Delta LeaderTRANSCRIPT
by Jeff Nagel
TWO LOWER Mainland hospitals that have battled high rates of C. diffi cile infection in recent years will be part of the fi rst full clinical trials for a vaccine against the bacteria.
Patients who are at and Surrey Memorial Royal Columbian hospitals will be off ered the vaccine.
Fraser Health offi cials say the vac-cine attacks the toxins that damage the bowel and early data shows it may produce a positive response from the
body to fi ght off the diarrhea-causing infection, even in the elderly.
C. diffi cile (Clostridium diffi cile) kills 2,000 Canadians a year and authorities are concerned about new strains that have developed in Quebec and are thought linked to many deaths.
“Th is is an exciting opportunity to get on top of this nasty organism,” said Fraser Health Chief Medical Health Offi cer Dr. Paul Van Buynder.
SMH to test new vaccine

A QUIET Guildford neighbour-hood feels like “the Bronx” after a man was stabbed to death, an area resident says.
On Friday, at about 1 a.m., a fight broke out at the inter-section of 154 Street and 100 Avenue.
On arrival, police found two males, aged 17 and 22, suffering from stab wounds.
Kyle Yellowbird, 22, of Vancou-ver, succumbed to his injuries in hospital, while the 17-year-old is in serious but stable condition.
It was Surrey’s 15th murder of 2013.

Emergency personnel tend to one of two stabbing victims.
Carlos, who used to manage the apartment building Escada near the killing, says he was asleep when the fi ght occurred.
He said the feeling of safety in the neighbour-
hood is gone.“You would like to
think this kind of thing wouldn’t happen so close to your home,” said Carlos, who spoke to Th e Leader on the condition his last name not be published.
He said the early morning violence makes him feel “like I’m in the Bronx,” referring to the northernmost borough of New York that has a history of poverty and violence.
On Friday morning,
police closed off 154 Street, and investigators with the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) canvassed nearby homes for wit-nesses.
Th e stabbings appear to be the result of a dis-
pute at the intersection.“Th e investigation
is progressing and all information continues to point to this being a spontaneous event that resulted in two people being seriously injured, one fatally,” said IHIT
Sgt. Adam MacIntosh.Police have identifi ed
a suspect and have seized a vehicle, but as of Th e Leader’s press deadline Monday, no arrests had been made.
Police are asking anyone with information
regarding this investiga-tion to contact the IHIT tip line by calling 1-877-551-IHIT (4448) or by email at [email protected]. If you wish to remain anony-mous, call Crime Stop-pers at 1-800-222-8477 or leave a tip on their website at Solvecrime.ca
2 Surrey/North Delta Leader Tuesday, August 20, 2013
“It costs the health care system millions of dollars to treat and control this organism, not to mention the cost to patients. We are look-ing forward to running a trial of the vaccine and work towards better managing this ever-increasing challenge.”
Th e trial will begin near the end of August and continue for 30 months.
Patients expected to be in hospital over the next 60 days will be asked to participate.
And others who have been in hospital at least twice over the last 12 months and have taken antibiotics will also be recruited.
Several Fraser Health hospitals conducted intensifi ed cleaning operations in 2012 in response to higher than average C. diffi cile infec-tion rates.
For more information on the trial or to partici-pate, call 1-855-587-7889 or see www.Cdiff ense.org

METRO VANCOUVER bus passengers who now pay with cash and use a paper transfer to later board SkyTrain will fi nd themselves paying double if they don’t adopt the Com-pass card aft er the new payment system takes eff ect in 2014.
TransLink says fare boxes on buses won’t be able to issue paper tickets to cash-paying passengers that are com-patible with the SkyTrain faregates. Passengers who try to use them will be forced to pay again at a SkyTrain station.
Spokesman Derek Zabel predicts the vast majority of riders will use the Compass card and have no problem but concedes more public education will be needed.
A compatible system on buses would have cost an extra $25 million.
“It wasn’t a cost-eff ec-tive solution,” he said.
Bus-to-bus paper transfers will still work, as will SkyTrain-to-bus transfers – it’s only bus-to-SkyTrain transfers where tickets will be incompatible.
An estimated 6,000 people a day use bus-to-SkyTrain paper transfers aft er paying cash.
Th at’s a small fraction of the more than 1.2 million daily transit trips, Zabel said, noting most riders already use a pass or some other form of pre-paid fare.
While Compass cards are expected to roll out before the end of the year – aft er an extensive test-ing period this fall – both the new and the old system will work simul-
taneously for months before the faregates are fully activated.
“We’re not going to close the gates until people fully understand how to use the system,” Zabel said.
Th e cards are being confi gured to replicate existing payment off er-ings so users can load money on their card and buy the equivalent of a monthly pass or get a similar discount to the FareSaver prepaid ticket booklets by buying ahead.
Discounts will range up to 14 per cent, accord-ing to Zabel.
TransLink expects passengers will fl ock to adopt the reloadable Compass card because of the convenience it will off er – ending the need to go to a store to buy a monthly pass – as well
as other advantages like transfer of the balance if the card is lost or stolen.
Gavin Davies, vice-president of the CAW union local representing Coast Mountain bus drivers, said there’s con-cern angry passengers who are forced to pay again to board SkyTrain will take out their fury on bus drivers.
“Th ey’re going to immediately retaliate against the next bus driver they see,” he predicted, adding driver assaults could increase.
Th e move was blasted by transit users on social media and an online petition has been started demanding TransLink abandon the “double transit fee.”
It’s not the only change associated with the Compass card conver-sion that’s drawing controversy.
TransLink is also axing the Employer Pass Program that off ered a 15 per cent discount to employees of participat-ing employers. It was oft en coupled with employer-off ered perks like preferential parking as a way to encourage more transit use while reducing the number of workplace parking stalls required.
“It wasn’t fair,” Zabel said. “Some select people and groups were benefi t-ting while other people weren’t getting that same level of discount.”
TransLink says employer pass users can buy monthly passes now, but in many cases that may cost them more.
TransLink will also phase out FareSaver pre-paid tickets in January.
Also being eliminated Jan. 1 is a policy of allow-ing free travel for family members of monthly pass holders on Sundays and holidays.

TRANSLINK IS again being accused of paying its managers too much aft er the release of fi nancial disclosures showing higher pay for top executives and more staff receiving in excess of $100,000.
Th e documents show 141 TransLink employees collected six-fi gure salaries in 2012, up nearly 15 per cent from the previous year.
CEO Ian Jarvis collected $394,730 in combined salary and bonuses, up three per cent. Pension contributions and other benefi ts pushed his total compensation to $438,700. His base salary for January 2012 was listed at $310,000, which TransLink says has not changed since 2011.
Th ree other senior executives – chief operating offi -cer Doug Kelsey, chief fi nancial offi cer Cathy McLay and executive vice-president Bob Paddon – also earned over $300,000 in overall compensation.
Kelsey was second highest with a $280,000 base salary. Bonuses, benefi ts and pension contributions pushed his compensation total to $377,000 in 2012.
Canadian Taxpayers Federation B.C. director Jor-dan Bateman said TransLink should roll back execu-tive and management salaries as a fi rst step to cut costs and avoid tax hikes for service expansion.
“We say not another nickel for TransLink,” he said. “Th eir leadership has completely lost touch with the people they are supposed to be serving. Th is tone-deaf fi scal mismanagement will come back to haunt them in next year’s TransLink referendum.”
Eight TransLink executives were paid bonuses total-ling $215,000 in 2012 related to 2011 performance. Th e incentive pay amounts ranged from a low of $9,300 to a high of $57,350 for Jarvis.
Nearly 60 of the employees earning over $100,000 are Transit Police offi cers, which Bateman calls “over-paid fare checkers” who don’t work on enough serious crimes to justify their expense.
TransLink spokesperson Jiana Ling said Transit Police are critical to keeping the transit system safe and have helped reduce crime.
“We’re doing our best to reduce cost and be more effi cient while maintaining service delivery standards,” Ling said, adding TransLink’s executive compensation structure has been reviewed and approved by the province.
“While we are not a Crown corporation, we operate prudently within government guidelines.”
Th e transportation authority has been through multiple internal and external reviews in recent years in an ongoing search for savings.
In the course of that, TransLink has slashed its upper management ranks by liminating a dozen vice-presidents or other senior executives.
Auditors, mayors and successive transportation ministers have concluded other expenses off er more potential savings than pay reforms, and that no amount of internal savings will free up the billions of dollars TransLink needs to build new rapid transit lines. TransLink’s total payroll cost last year was $54.8 million.

SEARCH THRIFT STORESEARCH THRIFT STORE
British Columbia is famed around the world for the quality of its marijuana, and people here buy, sell, grow, and consume it mostly without fear of seri-ous consequences from the law.
Elections BC has approved Dana Larsen’s drive for a referendum on decriminalizing marijuana possession – a reminder that pot remains illegal, and unlike our neighbour in Washington state, our province and country remain far away from laws that take drug profi ts away from criminals.
Any move to shake up drug laws in this country is seen as a good thing. But pot smokers shouldn’t have a victory toke yet – it’s not clear this referendum will even get off the ground, and, if it does, if the province will give it the time of day.
Similar to the ultimately successful drive to oust the HST, Larsen and his sup-porters need to collect signatures of at least 10 per cent of elected voters in each of the 85 ridings.
Th e gross mishandling of the HST by the B.C. Liberals made it easy to whip up voter anger, and voter turnout. Many people in B.C. may support laxer laws around possessing marijuana (or buying, selling and growing for that matter), but the issue is unlikely to infl ame the same passions as a government perceived as dishonest and shift ing tax burdens from business to citizens.
Th e drive to create a marijuana referendum could help to get voting-averse young adults more engaged in the political life of B.C. At the risk of glib stereotyp-ing, hopefully the referendum advocates stay focused and organized, and aren’t smoking what they are trying to legalize.
If the referendum were to succeed anywhere in Canada, it should be B.C. But even if Larsen and his allies win, the victory will be non-binding and symbolic – the Liberals don’t have to support the vote.
B.C. may have a permissive pot culture, but this isn’t the U.S., where, for better or worse, voter propositions are binding. And unlike Canadian provinces, states like Washington and Colorado will defy their federal government based on the will of the people.
– Black Press
The B.C. Liberal government is order-ing up another round of liquor regu-lation changes, looking for ways to make life easier for businesses and
customers without aggravating the health and social problems associated with alcohol.
Discussions with B.C.’s 10,000 liquor licence holders have identifi ed a few problems that should be fi xed. Going into a consultation phase that runs to October, the government is looking for answers to a few obvious questions, such as why it takes a pub or bar up to a year to get a licence.
Another question: Why can a fam-ily with under-aged children go into a licensed restaurant for lunch, but can’t go to a pub and place the exact same food and drink order? This should be allowed, perhaps until the traditional 5 p.m. “happy hour” when the pub reverts to adults-only.
A couple of suggestions have come out of the healthy growth of B.C. wine, craft beer and distillery operations. Look for new licence opportunities for farmers’
markets to sell local beverages along with the produce and preserves.
Letters inviting suggestions from existing licence holders have gone out, and Richmond-Steveston MLA John Yap will be meeting this fall with industry groups, local governments, police, health and social policy organizations and First Nations in the fall.
A website will be put up in Sep-tember so members of the public can have their say. Here’s my sug-gestion to start things off .
Recent incidents involving so-called “party buses” shone a light on this growing industry, Th e sudden death of a 16-year-old on a party bus outing in Surrey in February turned out not to be alcohol-related, but to no one’s surprise, open liquor was found aboard the bus.
Open liquor isn’t allowed in any vehicle, but perhaps a new kind of special event licence could be created for party buses. Th ey have been viewed mainly as part of the solution to
impaired driving, and the situation isn’t much diff erent from a supervised event on a boat.
Here’s another suggestion. Gourmet cooking classes are becoming popular, with customers preparing and then enjoying their meals. Why
not licence these establishments, at least so people can bring their own wine for dinner?
Both the B.C. Liberals and NDP have advocated for easing the archaic rules on inter-provincial trade in wine. B.C. lift ed its restrictions on mail-order wine and has urged other provinces to follow suit.
Th ere are a couple of reasons why this Prohibition-era struc-ture persists. Liquor sales are a cash cow for provincial govern-
ments, and every case of wine brought in from elsewhere is lost profi t for the provincial wholesale monopoly. Th en there is the local industry lobby that would rather not add to its competition.
Premier Christy Clark pressed this point at
the recent premiers’ meeting in Ontario wine country, bringing in the maximum amount of B.C. wine allowed under Ontario rules and urging free trade in Canadian wine.
Th e Toronto media drank it up, aghast that they were barred from ordering the latest Naramata Bench tipples directly. No move-ment so far from the Ontario government, in a province that has done well developing its own wine industry.
Th e B.C. government will no doubt be lobbied again to allow beer and wine sales in grocery and convenience stores. Our politicians show little interest in that, which is understandable. Th e B.C. Liberals don’t want to upset the private liquor stores they have nurtured for a decade, and the NDP would never risk annoying the government liquor store union.
Th ere are more creative ways to liberalize alcohol sales.

THERE ARE some things I just can’t grasp when it comes to south-of-Fraser views on transit issues, from the notion from our leaders that SkyTrain expansion will split communities (SkyTrain has built communities), to the idea that the south-of-Fraser region should split from Trans-Link.
Take the recent column by Frank Bucholtz suggesting splitting from TransLink, for instance.
Frank is fed up by the seem-ingly “discriminatory” attitude towards transit expansion south of the Fraser.
Yet, in the past several years, the south-of-Fraser area has received the highest proportion of service hours during expan-sions. There would have been more, were it not for the limits
being set by funding issues for everyone in the region.
He is also fed up with three-zone fares ($5.50) to reach Vancouver from Surrey or Langley. But it must be realized that the distance between Sur-rey and Vancouver is at least 17 kilometers; many trips exceed 30 kms, and TransLink often has to
pay for one or two buses and a SkyTrain trip from your flat-rate fare.
Trying to travel the same dis-tance in Metro Toronto between cities would cost between $6.25 and $7.75 each way, every day. It costs just $5.50 here, during peak commuting hours only – and just $2.75 on evenings and weekends.
True, there are some inexcus-able nitpicks like the lack of a Surrey stop on the Highway 1 RapidBus.
However, it’s hard to say whose fault that is. Neither the province nor nearby developers were able to build a place for TransLink to safely stop without incurring delays and/or extra costs.
I’m all for better transit south of the Fraser, but a separate south-of-Fraser transit authority is not the answer.
It doesn’t make sense. Attempting to split off would complicate decisions on funding methods, and it would affect transit service during the pro-cess.

MANY, MANY thanks to the fi refi ghters and paramedics who responded to my 911 call while my wife was in labour. In a situation that was terrifying and fi lled with chaos, they brought a measure of calm and professionalism that was greatly appreciated by both of us.
Although we didn’t make it to the hospital and our baby girl was born around the corner from our house, we wanted you to know we will never forget you and you will all be part of an amazing birth story.
Congratulations on earning your stork pin.

Values should
unite us allI APPRECIATED the candour and articulation that Navi Dosanjh wrote in regards to the domestic violence that exists within the Indo-Canadian community (Be a voice for the voiceless, Th e Leader, Aug. 1).
I really believe the continuance of this problem within the Cana-dian social context is the result of our multicultural mandate that separates races and cultural prac-tices and precludes any condemna-tion of mores that do not fi t into mainstream society.
I too am sick and tired of the continued emphasis on Canada being an accepting and tolerant nation without preeminence given to non-negotiable and binding sets of values that unite us all.

FOR THE past nine months, buses from Langley have merrily zoomed over the Port Mann Bridge without stopping in Surrey.
Th e current situation is unac-ceptable when the city adjoining the widest bridge in the world has no access to public transportation. Th e benefi ts of getting some kind of public transportation would be tremendous.
At the risk of being cynical, I would argue that keeping people in cars and off buses greatly benefi ts TreO – the bridge operator. Enough is enough.
Almost 100 citizens have signed an online petition urging the imple-mentation of rapid transit over the Port Mann Bridge. I urge everyone to take a moment and sign the peti-tion at tiny.cc/156stop
I ask Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts: What work is being done on this issue and how will you work to get rapid transit in place for the back-to-school rush – not years from now.
Surrey citizens deserve some answers and action from their elected leaders.

I CAN’T BELIEVE how unfair the closure of the Pattullo Bridge is.
I am not saying it doesn’t need to be fixed. I am talking about the unfairness of forcing us to pay tolls because the non-tolled option is closed.
The fair plan would be when a non-tolled bridge is closed for repairs, one of the tolled bridges should be free until it re-opens.
Since tolls have been introduced, I have been watching the Port Mann and Golden Ears bridges. Both of them are like ghost towns. Just like I predicted when Kevin Fal-con introduced this stupid toll bridge idea, people are avoiding these bridges like the plague. I see more traffic on the three non-
tolled crossings, the Pattullo Bridge, Alex Fraser Bridge, and the Deas Island tunnel than ever before in my 24 years of commer-cial driving.
I find everything from tolls, to the billing of the tolls, to the heavier traffic and stress it puts on every motorist nothing but a big pile of brown bananas. The tolls must be removed at once and be replaced with a more affordable way to upkeep and build new structures.
My idea is to divide the province into three sections – north, central and south. Every time you renew your insurance there is a one-time payment of $10.
This goes for every truck, car, motorcycle,
trailer, mechanic plates and everything else that has wheels or uses our roads, bridges and highways. One hundred per cent of this money collected should be used for roads, highways and bridges.
Hopefully the B.C. Liberals and TransLink will remove their earplugs and bring their heads down from the high skies to really listen to the motorists of B.C. and bring an aff ord-able solution to our infrastructure problem.
Bill Vander Zalm built the Alex Fraser Bridge and Highway 91 with no tolls and far fewer taxpayers.
Todd Allan Surrey
IT IS ASTOUNDING, that in an age where public transit is deemed successful on its aff ordability and ease of use, TransLink and its management once again prove the Peter Principle with one of its most incompetent decisions yet, that bus transfers will not work on SkyTrain and Canada Line trains and one must purchase another fare.
In short, casual users of the transit system will be double-billed if the journey has to continue on SkyTrain. It is beyond belief.
If the minister in charge of TransLink does not fi re top management for this sheer incompetence, the premier needs to fi re the minister in charge for allowing such incompetence to continue. And while top TransLink management should be terminated immediately, the equally incompetent board of amateurs that over-sees TransLink should be fi red as well for allowing the transfer fi asco to happen.
Th e Peter Principle is a proposition that states that the members of an organization where promotion is based on achieve-ment, success, and merit will eventually be promoted beyond their level of ability.
It seems everyone who works at Trans-Link is promoted far beyond their abilities.

SURREY’S MAYOR will be in court in just under a year to face a civil action over a traffi c accident that occurred more than three years ago.
On April 23, 2010, Dianne Watts and her husband Brian Watts were driving to pick up their daughter when they collided at 128 Street and 24 Avenue with a vehicle being driven by 55-year-old Shawnene Redekopp.
Police said at the time that Watts had the green light, however Redekopp’s husband said Shawnene had the green light.
Th e mayor suff ered a fractured rib and internal inju-
ries, while her husband sustained soft tissue damage.Court documents indicate Redekopp suff ered a
fractured collar bone and ribs, and injuries to her neck, back, abdomen, lungs, left knee, spleen and pancreas.
Redekopp started a civil action against Watts, her husband, and Envision Leasing on Dec. 8, 2010. In it, she claims Dianne Watts “was negligently operating” the vehicle and ran a red light before the collision.
In response, Watts claims the accident was due to Redekopp’s negligence. Th e response also claims Redekopp suff ered no injury, loss, or damage as a result of the accident.
None of the allegations have been proven in court.Th e trial is set to begin in Vancouver on June 3, 2014.

A MAN has been arrested aft er a man was struck and killed by a vehicle.
Just aft er midnight on Saturday, Mounties were called to a parking lot near the Royal Canadian Legion at 106 Avenue and 135A Street.
Surrey RCMP found a 40-year-old Surrey man suff ering from serious life-threatening injuries. An ambulance was taking him to hospital, but he died before he got there.
Witnesses at the scene said they believed it was an intentional act to strike the victim. Several other
people were narrowly missed, wit-nesses said.
Th e alleged intentional killing makes this Surrey’s 16th homicide of 2013, surpassing the annual average over the last decade, which is 14. Th e most murders Surrey has recorded in the last decade was in 2005, when the city experienced 21 homicides.
Th e suspect driver in Saturday’s incident was found and arrested, and his vehicle was seized.
Police say they are currently holding a 32-year-old man from the Lower Mainland.
No charges have been laid at this time.
“We want to thank those people who have already come forward and assisted in identifying the driver, leading to his quick arrest, said Sgt. Adam MacIntosh of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT). “We know there were a lot of other people who saw what happened and we want encourage these people to come forward with their information.”
Anyone with information we ask them to contact the IHIT tip line by calling 1-877-551-IHIT (4448) or by email at [email protected]. If you wish to remain anonymous call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

A SURREY man has been arrested and charged in connection with a fl urry of robberies involving a chain of sandwich stores earlier this year.
Rupinder Jit Sooch, 29, was arrested on Aug. 7 and charged in relation to nine robberies spanning six days in Surrey, Delta and Langley.
From Jan. 31 to Feb. 5, nine robberies were reported at various restaurants in the area, many involving the same sandwich chain.
Th e suspect was described as a South Asian male, in his late 20s, short with a thin build.
In all of the robberies, the suspect was armed with a knife and would disguise his appearance with a hooded sweatshirt and cloth covering the lower half of his face before fl eeing in a silver four-door vehicle.
Aft er a nine-month investigation, Surrey RCMP’s robbery section arrested Sooch and have received approval for 16 Criminal Code charges.
Th ey include nine counts of robbery and seven counts of disguise with intent.
None of the victims were injured as a result of the robberies.
Sooch has been remanded in custody with his next court appearance set for Th ursday (Aug. 22).
Surrey RCMP are reminding mer-chants and the public about taking the necessary precautions when facing a robbery threat.
Remain calm in the event of a rob-bery and cooperate with the robber’s demands, police say. Never assume a robber isn’t armed and try to pay close attention to what they look like and any vehicles they may be associated with. Try to observe the direction of travel of the suspect and call police when they have departed and it is safe to do so.
For more information on how busi-nesses can help minimize the impact of a robbery on their employees and customers, visit the Protect Yourself section of the Surrey RCMP website at http://bit.ly/Xf5gx2.

THE ESTIMATED size of the Fraser River sockeye run was boosted Friday as more inbound salmon are arriving later than anticipated in the waters around Vancouver Island.
Th e Pacifi c Salmon Commission (PSC) now esti-mates the main summer run of sockeye at 2.3 million fi sh, up from two million as of Aug. 13, and the early summer run is now pegged at 520,000 fi sh, up from 475,000. Th e overall run size is currently estimated at just over three million, with late-run sockeye that were projected to add 583,000 not yet included in the count.
Th at’s well below the 4.8-million run size forecast for this summer, but an improvement from the 1.6-million return of four years ago that triggered the Cohen Inquiry.
Th ere’s still deep concern that high river tempera-tures of around 21 degrees Celsisus – 3.3 degrees higher than average – may kill up to 70 per cent of the incoming sockeye before they can spawn.
Th at prompted the commission to scale back test fi shing to reduce pressure on the stock and Depart-ment of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) cut off all sports angling for salmon on the lower Fraser to avoid any sockeye bycatch there.
Observers have reported seeing more fl oating carcasses in the river but the PSC said most sockeye swimming upriver appear to be in good condition so far.
Th ere’s still no expectation of any more commercial or aboriginal food fi shery openings for sockeye.
Close to nine million pink salmon are also forecast to arrive, however, and large numbers of that species are now being detected, suggesting an even bigger run than predicted. A big pink run could allow fi shery openings in September.

DESPITE A sunny and rain-free July, Metro Vancouverites kept tap water usage under control.
And regional district offi cials are crediting tightened lawn sprinkling regulations for the water conservation success during the record dry spell.
Metro Vancouver dispensed an average of 1.45 billion litres a day last month, with a peak of 1.6 billion litres on July 24.
Th e region consistently stayed well below its one-day record high for water consumption of more than two million litres set four years ago.
“It appears that mornings-only lawn sprinkling regula-tions across the region have helped to reduce the demand for our high-quality drinking water in summer, when the demand for water soars during hot and sunny days,” said North Vancouver City Mayor Darrell Mussatto, who chairs
Metro’s utilities committee.Metro decided to ban evening lawn sprinkling to ease
demand at peak hours when many households are running dishwashers, clothes washers and baths.
Metro reservoirs are currently about 78 per cent full – somewhat lower levels than the previous two summers when more rain fell, but still well within what’s considered the normal range.
Metro has plenty of water most of the year but its North Shore reservoirs can run low in the peak-use summer months if homes and businesses consume too much.
Mussatto said collective diligence in conserving water helps postpone the need for costly new projects to build higher dams and bigger mains and pumping stations.
Lawn sprinkling is only allowed before 9 a.m., three days a week, between June 1 and Sept. 30.
Watering of shrubs, trees, fl owers and vegetables are exempt from the lawn restrictions.
Dry summer hasn’t drained water reservoirsLevels normal; Metro Vancouver offi cials credit tougher lawn sprinkling rules

COMMUNITIES and Coal is gaining momentum in its opposition to the proposed Direct Coal Transfer Facility at Fraser Surrey Docks.
Th at’s the word from Ocean Park resident Paula Williams, co-orga-nizer of the grassroots network of South Surrey residents, who said it managed to gain 7,600 signatures for its petition in its fi rst 18 days of canvassing.
“It’s picking up,” she said. “People are waking up. I don’t think they realized before what this was all about.”
Th e group’s campaign about perceived health and quality-of-life impacts of thermal-coal dust from trains coming from the U.S. – set to double if the new transfer facility is approved by
Port Metro Vancouver – started with a town-hall meeting in Ocean Park six weeks ago.
Aft er residents heard, and heeded, warnings from guest speakers Eoin Madden of the Wilderness Committee and Dr. Frank James of a group of physicians in Washington State – instrumental in blocking a similar coal-transfer facility there – the group was formalized, Williams said.
Advocates of the trans-fer facility – including the Surrey Board of Trade – maintain it will be a huge benefi t to the economy, that topping coatings that will be applied to the cargo reduce dust by 85 per cent, and that a sealed water-spraying system at the planned facility will signifi cantly reduce dust emissions.
Williams said she rec-
ognizes that eff orts will be made to mitigate coal dust, but said Communi-ties and Coal members fear it won’t be enough to outweigh adverse eff ects.
“We’ve had some nega-tive feed-back, calling people from South Surrey NIMBYs,” Williams acknowl-edged. “We’re not trying to ship this off to some other place – we don’t want it for anyone. We’re question-ing what this is and what it will do, taking a look at things that haven’t been looked at for a long time.”
Th e signatures col-lected to this point indicate there is no consensus on the issue,
she said.And Williams said
that rather than dividing communities, the cam-paign is bringing them closer to like-minded groups and helping spark
the creation of others in Surrey, Delta and New West-minster.
“Th is thing is starting to spread,” she said.
Williams said Com-munities and Coal
is prepared to listen to information from the industrial side of the argument.
“What we’re saying is let’s get all the informa-tion out there,” she said.
“If Port Metro Van-couver and Fraser Surrey Docks want to, they can have a public hearing and clear the air about it.”
Williams said Com-munities and Coal is not against industry, or all coal shipments – its focus is on U.S. thermal coal that will be shipped from B.C. to Asia.

A SURREY man has been arrested in Ontario and faces a number of drug-related charges.
On Th ursday, an inspection of a semi-truck at a weigh scale uncovered marijuana in duffl e bags and boxes.
About 176 kilograms (388 pounds) of pot was found during the Aug. 10 inspection.
More than $8,000 in cash was also seized.
Qamer Shams, 40, of Newmarket, Ont., and Jeff Muster, 30, of Surrey, face a number of charges, including possession of cannabis for the purpose of traf-fi cking, and traffi cking cannabis, said RCMP.

MARIJUANA possession cases still account for 60 per cent of drug viola-tion reports to police in B.C., but the number of cases declined 10 per cent in 2012, according to new fi gures from Statistics Canada.
Th ere were 25,432 police-reported inci-dents of drug off ences in B.C. last year, a 7.4-per-cent decline from 2011. Marijuana traffi cking cases declined more than 20 per cent to 1,006 incidents, and importation and expor-tation of marijuana declined by 40 per cent.
Marijuana growing cases declined 4.6 per cent, following a 28.6-per-cent drop in 2011.
Heroin possession cases jumped more than 30 per cent to 500, and heroin traffi cking cases rose 37 per cent to 224 incidents in 2012.
Th ere were 653 reported cases of pos-session of methamphet-amine (crystal meth), a 20-per-cent increase over 2011, and 110 per cent more than 2009.
Th e decline in B.C. marijuana cases comes as licensed medical marijuana production increases across North America. Colorado and Washington state voted to legalize sale to adults last year.
In July, Elections BC gave approval in prin-ciple for a petition drive aimed at decriminal-izing marijuana posses-sion in B.C. Marijuana activist Dana Larsen has formed a group called Sensible B.C., aimed at forcing a change to B.C.
law that would prevent police resources from being used against simple possession of marijuana.
Sensible B.C. is using the same voter initiative system that forced the repeal of the harmo-nized sales tax in B.C.
Th e group will have
90 days starting Sept. 9 to collect signatures from 10 per cent of registered provincial voters in each of B.C.’s 85 electoral districts.
If that target is met, a province-wide vote would be held on the proposed law.

A GLASS of wine at the spa? A craft beer at the farmer’s market? Can B.C. survive the next wave of modernization of its archaic liquor laws?
Th ese suggestions are part of a review of liquor policy promised by the B.C. government in its Febru-ary throne speech and rolled out earlier this month. Richmond MLA John Yap has been assigned to exam-ine regulations that unnecessarily restrict business, making recommendations to the provincial cabinet by November.
One proposal is allowing under-aged children to have lunch at a pub with their parents during the day, as they can do in a licensed restaurant. As well as considering licences for farm markets and spas, the review is to look at why it takes up to a year to issue a liquor licence to a business.
Letters are going out to 10,000 licence holders and rural liquor agency stores looking for feedback, and a website for public comments is to be added in September.
Don’t expect a price break, however. Th e terms of
the review include ensuring that the $1 billion annual government revenue from liquor sales and sales tax is maintained or increased. Th e review will not look at privatization of liquor distribution, a controversial suggestion the government backed away from last year.
Recent reforms in B.C. have included allowing people to bring their own wine to a restaurant, and removing restrictions on buying wine from another province for personal use. B.C. has yet to convince Ontario and other provinces to lift their protectionist wine rules.
On the enforcement side, last year B.C. increased its fi ne to $575 for bootlegging liquor to people under 19. Two years ago, legislation allowed liquor inspectors to employ minors to test liquor outlets’ willingness to check identifi cation and refuse service.
A University of Victoria study released Wednesday called for B.C. to impose a minimum drink price of $1.50 on licensed establishments and charge higher prices for drinks with more alcohol, to discourage over-consumption.

OPPONENTS OF BC Hydro’s wireless smart meters are scrambling to quickly assemble enough people willing to be part of a planned class-action lawsuit they hope delivers a permanent opt-out from the program.
Victoria resident Sharon Noble, with the group Citizens for Safe Technology, said success in convincing a judge to certify the class action may hinge on how many people take part.
She estimated Wednesday that 100 to 150 people are registered – a start she called slow – but added hundreds more sign-ups are likely in progress.
Given the number of people who have blocked smart meter installation or had one installed against their wishes, she said, it would be surprising if thousands don’t join the lawsuit.
“Th e courts would be very infl uenced by having a large number,” Noble said, adding a judge could soon begin consid-ering whether to certify the class action.
“Th e more people we have signed on by then, the more
likely the courts would look on this as being a very signifi cant movement, as opposed to a movement of a handful.”
About 60,000 households have refused smart meters or less than four per cent of all BC Hydro customers.
BC Hydro has not yet issued its response to the claim fi led July 25 on behalf of representa-tive plaintiff Nomi Davis.
It demands free choice “with-out extortive fees, coercion or conditions designed to intimi-date.”
Registering with the lawsuit costs $100.
Th e provincial government has indicated those who still have analog power meters they want to keep will be able to pay around $20 a month extra to continue manual meter readings.
Opponents aren’t happy with the fees or Hydro indications that smart meters may still replace analog ones as they break down.
Th ey also say those with smart meters should have the ability to turn off wireless transmissions.
“Th e opt-out option that Hydro is off ering needs to be
a legitimate one,” White Rock resident Linda Ewart said. “What they need to say is ‘If you don’t want one of these meters, you don’t need to have them.’”
Another concern over choice is what happens when someone moves to a new home and a smart meter is already installed.
Many objectors claim health concerns or sensitivity to radio-frequency waves, even though third-party tests have found emissions from smart meters are low compared to other sources.
BC Hydro offi cials say the lead plaintiff ’s analog meter was broken and had to be replaced for safety reasons.
“BC Hydro will work through the judicial process to explain why we are obligated to replace a customer’s meter when there is potential for a safety hazard,” said Greg Reimer, executive vice-president of transmission and distribution, in a statement.
He said both the B.C. Court of Appeal and B.C. Utilities Commission have previously dismissed smart meter legal challenges and that Hydro has “acted at all times within the law.”

THE NORTH Delta All-Stars dominated virtu-ally every team in the province, but one.
After an undefeated regular season and a win at a tourna-ment in Burnaby last month, North Delta won four of six games at the BC Minor Baseball Mosquito (11-and-under) Tier 2 provincial champi-onship tournament in Mission to earn a silver medal.
Three one-sided wins (15-3 over Port Coquitlam, 18-6 against Maple Ridge and 8-3 over Kelowna) clinched a place in the playoff round. A 16-4 loss to Duncan, a game which determined first place in their pool, was the last of the round robin.
North Delta then toppled Mission 10-1 in a semifinal game, and faced Duncan for the championship. After taking a 9-3 lead after batting in the top of the third inning, North Delta couldn’t add to their total. Duncan took a one-run lead in the fourth inning and added four more in the fifth for a 14-9 victory.
North Delta play-ers selected as game MVP’s during the provincial playoffs were Carter Spencer, Jalen Hong, Brock Robertson, Logan Killy, Connor Olesen and Josh Carter.

Although it’s commonly accepted that oil and antifreeze are
not household garbage we can simply throw out, more
than one million litres of used oil ends up in BC
landfi lls every year. When you consider that it
only takes one drop of oil to contaminate a
million drops of water, the problem is clear:
there’s just too many drops to count, too
many to ignore.
BCUOMA is a not-for-profi t
organization that encourages
British Columbians to responsibly
recycle used oil, oil fi lters, oil
containers, used antifreeze and
antifreeze containers. Since the
launch of the program in 2003,
British Columbians have done an
exceptional job of recycling
their used oil materials.

Protecting our province from the harmful effects of used oil and antifreeze must be a responsibility we all share, together. So please,next time you look to dispose of used oil or antifreeze materials, find a collection facility near you. Here are three easy ways to do so:
Visit usedoilrecycling.com Call 1.800.667.4321 Call 604.RECYCLE for the Lower MainlandTo arrange for a bulk pick-up of used oil please call 1.866.254.0555
Note: Please make sure to return your used oil materials
during regular business hours for proper disposal and to avoid
any spills and further contamination to the environment.
In a continued effort to encourage higher rates of recovery,
BCUOMA has built a strong support network across the
province. Today, participation includes 219 brand-
owner members, 39 collectors and processors,
500+ return collection facilities and more
than 4,000 generators. In addition,
BCUOMA is expanding its successful
ambassador program this summer
– with two teams of ambassadors
touring the province to educate
and raise awareness of the
importance of used oil and
antifreeze recycling.
By recycling your used oil and
antifreeze products, you’re
playing an important role in
preserving our environment for
future generations.

A GROUP of fi ve athletes from the South Fraser Track and Field Club won a pair of silver medals at the Legion Canadian Youth Track and Field Championships in Langley last weekend.
Competing in the under-16 group, Amanda Moore, Georgia Paterson, Cheryl Chow and Jas-mine Lew placed second in the 4x100 relay in a time of 51.13.
Moore, Chow and Lew teamed with Jade Kreiser to
win the silver medal in the 1,600m medley event. Lew, 13, was named South Fraser’s top
athlete of the meet. “She learned to have nerves
of steel as she competed against girls two years older for the fi rst time ever,” said South Fraser head coach Robert Esmie.
In a fi eld of 29 athletes, Lew placed 10th overall in the 100m sprint and 11th overall in the 200m race.
“I was so nervous and afraid of coming last,” said Lew. “Th e experience was good and now I know I can place against the older girls.”

AFTER FOUR seasons in the Western Hockey League, Anthony Bard-aro of North Delta will join the University of British Columbia (UBC) men’s hockey program for the 2013-14 season.
Bardaro was draft ed out of the Burnaby Winter Club by the Spokane Chiefs in the 2007 Western Hockey League (WHL) Ban-tam Draft , then was traded to the Prince Albert Raiders midway through his third sea-son of junior hockey.
“I am extremely excited to be given the opportunity to play hockey at UBC this coming year,” said Bardaro. “Not only will I be receiving a great education, but I get the chance to play in my hometown on an amazing team. I’m exited to represent the Th underbirds program and look forward to playing alongside a great group of guys.”
In four years in the WHL, the 5’ 10”, 180 lbs.
centre scored 90 goals and added 100 assists while collecting 121 minutes in penalties.
“Anthony is one of the top off ensive players that gradu-ated from the WHL
last year,” said UBC head coach Milan Dragicevic. “He brings a ton of skill, excellent off ensive numbers, and was a top face-off man. We are excited that he chose UBC to continue
his schooling and hockey career.”
Th e Th underbirds open the 2013-14 Canada West regular season Friday, Oct. 11 in Calgary against the Dinos.
