Stabbing in White Rock

Victim pleadsfor no policeAlex BrowneStaff Reporter

Natalie Lockhart was just look-ing for a quiet break on a sunny workday in White Rock.

What she found instead was a tall, young man – oozing blood – who asked her not to summon help.

Suddenly Lockhart, assistant manager of the Shoppers Home Health Care store at Central Plaza, found herself at the centre of a non-fatal stabbing incident, which police say is likely linked to “street-level” drug dealing in the area.

Lockhart was at the store’s recycling bin enclosure just off Johnston Road shortly after 2 p.m. Wednesday, when the man approached her.

“He just walked into the garbage bins where I was standing, put his backpack on the ground and said ‘don’t call the police, don’t call an ambulance,’” she said.

The man – later determined to be a 24-year-old Surrey resident – told her he had just been stabbed.

“Blood was just dripping from his right side. He was talking lightly, but quickly.”

Although Lockhart offered help, the man refused it, she said.

“He just pulled on this black hoodie and picked up his backpack. I asked him where he was going

and he said, ‘I’m going home.’” Lockhart watched him shuffle to

the intersection of North Bluff and cross to the Surrey side.

“I felt bad. You couldn’t do any-thing for him. He didn’t want any help or anything. He was just cov-ered in blood.”

Lockhart said a young woman approached after the man had left, wondering if anyone had seen him. She was pointed in the direc-tion he was travelling.

Lockhart called White Rock RCMP, and learned that hers was the third call on the incident, which had first been reported as an assault-in-progress.

When a fire truck and police cars caught up with him, he was seated on the ground outside a jewelry store across 152 Street from Semi-ahmoo Shopping Centre.

Humpback entangled in gillnet

A whale of a rescue taleTracy HolmesStaff Reporter

South Surrey’s Paul Cottrell has no doubt what would have hap-pened to a humpback whale had a recent effort to untangle it from a gillnet not been successful.

It would have died, the fisheries official said Monday, a day after returning from the rescue.

“This animal would likely defi-nitely have succumbed,” Cottrell said. “The animal had been entan-

gled for quite a while. The lead line was digging right into the flesh. The head was fully engulfed with mesh.

“It’s the worst entangled whale I’ve had to deal with.”

Cottrell, who is regional marine mammal co-ordinator for Fisheries and Oceans Canada, was tasked to an area near Kitimat Friday morn-ing, after whale researchers spot-ted the distressed 25- to 30-foot

There was ice in South Surrey Saturday, on one of the hottest weekends this summer.

The Shops at Morgan Crossing, which held a Spring Skate event earlier this year, have brought back an artificial ice rink and Sum-mer Skate for local youth to enjoy before heading back to school.

Players from the Surrey Eagles were at the Summer Skate on Saturday sharpening their skills and skating with fans.

“Our Spring Skate was a huge success,” said The Shops marketing and events co-ordinator Leigh Ann Smith.

“This time around, we’re excited to be partnering with the Surrey Eagles to bring even more exciting activities and exclusive opportunities to meet and interact with the players.”

Five Eagles players including Surrey’s own Colton Mackie and Michael Stenerson were on hand and in skates Saturday, participating in puck-handling drills and sharing tips with young fans, who also skated with the players

on the outdoor synthetic ice surface.Summer Skate on the artificial rink is open

daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. until Aug. 31, with skate rentals, sharpening and hot dogs available by donation; funds raised go to The Centre for Child Development.

Players from the Eagles will be back to showcase their skills at The Shops’ rink on Aug. 26 and Aug. 29 for one-on-one sessions with some lucky hockey players. On Aug. 31, the Eagles will deliver its official roster announcement for the 2011/2012 season at 12:30 p.m. at the rink. At 4:30 p.m., every-one’s invited to watch a three-on-three mas-cot game, including Fin from the Vancouver Canucks.

“It’s a great way for the team to kick-start our 2011/2012 season and showcase some of our amazing talent to this incredible com-munity that’s supported us for more than two decades,” said Surrey Eagles sales and marketing director Robin Wyss.

newsAdvocate urges switch to hourly wages

B.C. to probe farms’ berry-picking rates

Neighbours urge traffic calming

Residents call Stayte of emergency

BNSF ‘safety first’

Train whistleswill continueAlex BrowneStaff Reporter

Increased BNSF traffic through White Rock is a market-driven fact of life – and residents must under-stand the sound of train whistles is a necessary safety factor.

That’s the word from the railway’s corporate communications repre-sentative, Gus Melonas.

Melonas said last week that the railway is doing everything it can to minimize the noise in the com-munity through upgraded tracks, equipment and rolling stock, but “when it comes to safety, you can’t take shortcuts.”

That’s particularly top-of-mind, he said, after a spate of trespasser fatalities on BNSF lines “between the border and Tacoma” over the previous week.

“We had four trespassers hit – and three fatalities – in the last eight days,” Melonas said. “The last thing we want to face is striking some-body. The main warning device is the whistle on the train – and the whistle is intended to be heard.”

Melonas was responding to a let-ter from Victoria Avenue resident Floyd Stanley in Peace Arch News’ Aug. 16 edition, in which Stan-ley charged there has been a sig-nificant increase in the number of trains – and train noise – through White Rock since 12 years ago.

Stanley said that when he and his wife first came to White Rock from Ontario, he considered the trains “unique and not a nuisance as there were only, on average, six trains a day passing through.” Now, he said there are up to 16 trains a day.

Stanley said they’ve had to shorten their twice-daily promenade walks, and noted whistles awaken them at all hours of the night.

But Melonas said the volume of traffic varies according to customer demand for transporting goods.

“We’re averaging 12 to 15 trains, but every day is different,” he said. “Sometimes it’s as low as nine, while other days it’s up to 15 or 16.”

Based on projections, demand for train movement of goods will increase, Melonas acknowledged.

“Each train that goes through White Rock takes an average of 300 trucks off the highway,” he said. “And we’ve not had one haz-mat fatality since 1981 – not one. We’re proud of our safety record.”

Lower Mainland berry pickers and other harvesters are being promised a provincial review of minimum wages for farm work won’t leave them earning less.

More than 10,000 pickers are paid piece-work rates based on how much they harvest.

Charan Gill, spokesman for Progressive Intercultural Community Services Society, said it appears the province ordered the review in response to complaints from farm-ers and contractors after indications the minimum rates would rise in lockstep with planned increases in B.C.’s minimum wage.

Gill said the consultant Victoria has hired

speaks no Punjabi and therefore won’t get a fair sense of most harvesters’ concerns.

A labour ministry spokesman said reduc-ing piece rates is “not under consideration.”

Minimum pay rates for pickers range from 16 cents per pound for brussels sprouts to 40 cents for blueberries, while tree fruit fetches $17 to $20 per large bin.

Those rates climbed 9.4 per cent in May at the same time B.C.’s minimum wage rose to $8.75 an hour.

Gill said the rates typically work out to the equivalent of $4 or $5 an hour.

“We are saying there should be a living wage for the farm workers,” he said.

Gill argues the province should eliminate

piece rates entirely in favour of hourly wages.He says that would help reform the current

system, which critics say is rife with abuse of workers and corrupt accounting practices.

Farm contractors routinely pay pickers at piece rates but then convert the amounts to hourly pay on the books as if minimum wages had been paid. That lets companies record an artificially low number of hours and avoid violating employment standards when pick-ers work long hours during harvest season.

Hours are sometimes later adjusted back upward so workers are credited the minimum number of hours to qualify for employment insurance. Employers sometimes demand kickbacks for such revisions.

Federal tax auditors have prosecuted dozens of Lower Mainland pickers before for EI fraud over their role in such schemes, although most employers have avoided punishment.

“There should be a total survey of the farm industry to clean up this thing,” Gill said.

B.C. Federation of Labour president Jim Sinclair said Ontario and Quebec both use a system that ensures a minimum wage for farm workers, while retaining a piece-rate system that can result in pickers being paid more. B.C. should follow suit, he said.

“The minimum wage for farm workers should be the minimum wage for everybody else.”

The review is due by the end of October.

A South Surrey woman who says she was nearly hit by a car as she walked with her dogs on Stayte Road Friday is calling on the cities of White Rock and Surrey to improve safety at the intersection of Stayte Road (160 Street) and Pacific Avenue (10 Avenue).

Julie Thorsen said she was driven to speak out after a collision the following evening at the same intersection ended with an SUV upside-down against a fire hydrant.

Thorsen said she and her husband were enjoying a quiet evening in their backyard Sat-urday when the calm was broken around 6:30 p.m. by the sound of screeching tires, breaking glass and a blaring horn. She told her husband to call 911 and ran outside in her bare feet to find two SUVs had collided. One came to rest partially in a resident’s front yard.

Thorsen didn’t see what caused the crash, but

is confident speed and poor visibility played a role. She noted she has voiced concerns about those factors before, and was busy Monday reiterating those concerns in letters to the City of Surrey and White Rock politi-cians.

“I don’t know how many accidents we have to have at that corner to change things,” Thorsen said. “I really do hope both cities get together and do something about it.”

White Rock RCMP were not avail-able to provide details regarding the crash, or if there were any injuries, by Peace Arch News deadline Mon-day.

Thorsen’s neighbour, Dianne Dickinson, agreed the site is a tragedy waiting to happen.

Dickinson, who has lived in the area for about 27 years, estimates there are collisions at that intersection about every three weeks. One

in May involved three vehicles and sent five people to hospital.

“We’re just lucky there hasn’t been a fatal-ity – that I know of – there,” she said. “It’s only

a matter of time before something doesn’t go as well. It’s a very danger-ous corner.”

Dickinson, too, pointed to speed and visibility. Drivers coming up Stayte Road from Marine Drive are moving too quickly, and those southbound on Stayte who turn off onto 10 Avenue can’t see them com-ing, she said.

She and Thorsen said a traffic circle or lights would go a long way towards easing the problem. Both worry the intersec-tion’s location on the White Rock/Surrey bor-der could hinder improvements.

“Let’s not argue about it, let’s just fix the prob-lem,” Dickinson said.

news

juvenile in Ursula Channel, near Gill Island, the day before.

When he arrived, Cottrell learned efforts to track the whale overnight were complicated after the mammal met up with about four other humpbacks. In the dark, it was hard to know which humpback to follow, he said.

Fortunately, he and others who joined the search in the morn-ing were able to locate the whale after about four hours of comb-ing the waters in a grid pat-tern. Along the way, Cottrell’s team alone encountered 15 other humpbacks, he noted.

The tangled leviathan was found around 2 p.m., and a careful oper-ation to free it got underway. The process – attaching to the line, and slowly moving closer to the whale, cutting the gear off along the way – took about seven hours, Cottrell said. The first step alone took a couple hours.

“We really took our time… moving up the gear and cutting it off over time, and then eventu-ally getting right up close to the whale and then being able to cut (the line) with specialized tools

right off the animal.”Key to the operation’s success

was tiring the whale out first, to enable a safe approach, Cottrell said, noting his team was “pretty darn happy” with the outcome.

The operation – the third of its kind for Cottrell – was the second successful whale disentangle-ment in B.C. waters this month. Another whale was rescued near Tofino about two weeks ago.

Cottrell is hopeful a third whale spotted sporadically since July 31 in the southern Georgia Strait with crab line attached to it will soon be located and freed.

He encouraged anyone who spots the whale – or any other distressed, sick, injured or dead marine mammal – to call the 24-hour Marine Mammal Inci-dent Reporting Hotline, at 1-800-465-4336.

Witnesses there observed the man being tended to by a young woman who applied improvised compresses to his chest, attempt-ing to stop the flow of blood.

An ambulance took him to Earl Marriott Secondary grounds, where he was picked up by a helicopter and airlifted to Royal Columbian Hospital. He was later listed in stable condition.

Lockhart said she later saw police officers converging on a

parking lot just south of Cen-tral Plaza on Johnston Road, and concluded they were investigat-ing the area as a possible site of the stabbing attack.

Late Wednesday, police released a statement in which they said they believe the attack was tar-geted and is connected to street-level drug trade, and that “the general public is not at risk.”

But Lockhart admitted she was fearful for her own safety when she first saw the man.

“My first thought when he came walking in was, ‘oh my God, I’m dead.’ I didn’t know what to expect when I saw all that blood. And when he said don’t call the police or ambulance, I thought, ‘oh God…’ I’m glad he’s doing alright. He’s very lucky.”

Lockhart said the incident shook her up enough that she went home from work early.

“It’s very scary. You don’t expect to see that in little old White Rock.”

Skydiving firefighter diesA Surrey fire captain has died in a

parachuting incident in Washington State.

Cal McKibbon, 51, was parachuting near Snohomish Thursday, when witnesses say he had trouble with the main chute and the back-up chute became tangled.

He plunged about 1,200 metres into the Pilchuk River.

He was rescued from the water by firefighters and was airlifted to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. He succumbed to his injuries that afternoon.

McKibbon was a student at Skydive Snohomish and was on his second jump of the day. He had undertaken 14 jumps, more than halfway to his 23-jump certification.

Deputy Chief John Caviglia said the community is grieving the loss.

“It’s a huge shock to his family and his extended family of firefighters,” Caviglia said.

McKibbon – a 26-year veteran of the Surrey Fire Department – was a person who loved life and was an active individual, Caviglia said, noting it’s too soon to provide more details.

The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board is investigating exactly what went wrong with McKibbon’s chute deployment.

Cougar sightingA report of a large cougar

wandering in Surrey’s Cougar Creek Park Saturday morning prompted police to warn the public to stay away from the area while a search was conducted.

Efforts to locate the cat, however, were unsuccessful.

According to a news release issued just after noon Saturday, Surrey RCMP received a call at 11 a.m. Aug. 20 to advise of a sighting in a west Newton residential neighbourhood near 68 Avenue and 121 Street.

Police and conservation officers secured the scene and conducted foot patrols. While they spoke with other park visitors who reported seeing the cougar, officials found no evidence of the predator during their search and the park was reopened, an RCMP spokesperson said Monday.

Surrey conservation officials could not be reached by Peace Arch News deadline Monday. However, in an interview with PAN earlier this year, conservation officer Sgt. Chris Doyle advised anyone who encounters a

cougar not to run from the animal. Instead, people should make themselves look big, pick up a stick and back away, he said.

To report a concern with wildlife, call 1-877-952-7277.

Water safetyFollowing the death of an 18-year-

old Mission man last week and the near-drowning of a South Surrey man on Osoyoos Lake the week before, authorities are reminding the public to be careful while on the water.

Last Tuesday, one man died after he and two others were being pulled on

a tube behind a 20-foot Bay Karavan Bowrider and they struck the bow of a 15-foot Stingray. A mix of late-night boating and alcohol is being investigated as possible reasons for his death.

Police noted this isn’t the first incident RCMP have had to respond to on Osoyoos Lake this summer.

On Aug. 12, a South Surrey man came close to drowning on the lake after his flotation device flipped while he was well off shore of the public swimming area.

A Transport Canada Patrol vessel responded to the 43-year-old male, and officers noted him signaling for help. Oliver/Osoyoos RCMP said the man was out of breath and had just enough strength to grab onto one of the boat lines.

Insurance fraudMembers of a Surrey fraud ring

are being ordered to pay $344,000 to ICBC.

B.C. Supreme Court ruled Jaspal Atwal, Vikram Atwal, Jasraj Bains and Jagjit Gill, all from Surrey, created phoney Alberta registration documents for stolen vehicles, re-registered them and sold them to B.C. buyers.

B.C. Supreme Court Justice A.F. Cullen found it wasn’t possible to determine the extent of any alleged conspiracy defendants profited from the scheme.

“However, I am satisfied that the combination of special and punitive damages that I have awarded is adequate to deter and denounce the behavior giving rise to these actions, by creating a significant financial burden on those who participated in this scheme.”

ICBC was also awarded more than $131,000 in damages against four other people and a business that purchased the stolen vehicles.

Canadians were shocked to learn Monday morning of the passing of Jack Layton, federal leader of the Opposition and

longtime NDP leader, at the age of 61.While many may have had a premonition that

Layton would not be able to win his second battle with cancer, they were instinctively rooting for him. He was a genuine person whose likeability was a key factor in taking the NDP from 13 seats, when he became leader in 2003, to 103 in the May 2 election.

Layton was a man of conviction, but he was also practical. He took the NDP away from some of its more extreme positions towards a party that was more middle-of-the-road, and was able to do so in such a way as to avoid internal splits that could have caused many divisions.

His recent runaway success in Quebec is proof of his ability. Quebeckers were clearly tired of the Bloc Quebecois, which, for 20 years, has harped on their province’s problems without presenting workable solutions.

Layton, more than any other leader, sensed the void that was being created and made a direct appeal to Quebeckers.

As he grew up in Quebec, he had a natural connection, but it was his ability to convince Quebeckers that the NDP would represent their province well that led the party to win so many seats in the recent election.

It was truly a victory of breathtaking proportions, and the concurrent relegation of the Bloc Quebecois to just four seats was cheered by all those across the country who want Quebec to not only stay within Canada, but be an important and proud part of the country.

It is not insignificant that Layton rose from municipal politics to become NDP leader. He was a longtime member of Toronto city council and served as president of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities.

The most successful municipal politicians are bridge-builders. They learn to work with people of differing political philosophies, because they know that they are all there for the greater good of the community.

Layton brought that kind of pragmatic approach to the national stage, and even when he disagreed heartily with his opponents, he never did so in a nasty, personal manner.

He preferred to use his sense of humour. He was a class act.

The thoughts and prayers of people all over Canada are with his family at this most difficult time.

editorial

VICTORIA – He would never quite admit it, but former premier Gordon Campbell’s push

for self-sufficiency in clean electricity has always looked to me like a long-term strategy to export hydroelectric power.

It still looks that way. B.C.’s spring and summer runoff match perfectly with peak air-conditioner season in California. But the recent review of BC Hydro operations discusses how the prospects for exports have changed since Campbell’s 2007 energy plan.

The government instructed BC Hydro to wean itself off power imports by 2016, even in drought years, and obtain new capacity mostly from outside sources with net zero greenhouse gas emissions. Nuclear plants were formally ruled out.

The review of BC Hydro by three top bureaucrats acknowledges that government directions have “placed pressure on BC Hydro to increase their energy supply through increased long-term agreements with independent power producers (IPPs).”

Cue the doomsayers. Independent power production is enemy number one

for BC Hydro unions. Their champion, NDP energy critic John Horgan, was immediately out with a grossly distorted version of the report. He cherry-

picked statistics to compare the $124-per-megawatt hour average cost for delivering independent power with the lowest end of the spot market for electricity, which currently swings wildly from around $4 to more than $50.

In fact the report puts the average price paid for IPP power at $63.85. Compare that with the projected cost of $87 to $95 for power from Site C, the proposed third dam on the Peace River that will be BC Hydo owned and operated.

The $124 figure includes other costs, notably extending the electricity grid to connect IPPs. Horgan claims to favour wind or run-of-river for remote areas with no other clean energy option, but apparently is against hooking them up to the grid.

(Further evidence that current NDP energy policy is nonsense: Horgan opposes Site C based on an assumption of little or no growth in mines, mills or other industries such as liquefied natural gas, which an NDP government would

be a good bet to deliver. He’s against smart meters for the same reason he’s against the HST – because it looks like a popular pose right now.)

When it comes to electricity exports, the important point is not what power sells for today, but what it will be worth a decade from now. And that depends on whether clean energy can command a premium price, and whether coal and other fossil fuel sources have a carbon price imposed on them.

Conventional wisdom right now is that carbon taxes and cap and trade programs are, if not dead, at least dormant in North America.

So I was surprised to find that this month Powerex, BC Hydro’s electricity trading company, wrote to the California Air Resources Board asking for clarification of the state’s proposed changes to its greenhouse gas reporting and cap and trade rules. California wants to prevent suppliers from engaging in “resource shuffling,” where a supplier such as B.C. might import coal power from Alberta for its own use, while selling supposedly clean power for export.

Considering that restriction, B.C.’s self-sufficiency rule starts to make more sense. If B.C. is not importing power, its supply must be clean.

Clean energy sales to California are a long way off, but it would be a mistake to reject the possibility.

Follow White Rock’s pathEditor:

White Rock always brings to mind a day at the beach.

What is interesting is just how little oceanfront White Rock has. They have made the most of what they have by building an attractive walkway.

Whilst Crescent Beach is equally attractive, Surrey ignores the bulk of its coastline.

Surrey is on the coast, but it is not always the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Surrey.

Imagine a seawall from Crescent Beach to Kwomais Point Park. Many people walk on the railway track to enjoy our ocean front, why not make it accessible and safer?

Imagine being able to walk from Crescent Beach to Elgin Park. Imagine being able to walk on the dikes, which I believe – might be wrong – that our tax dollars help maintain. Why do we not have access to the dikes?

I realize that we have a railway on our Surrey coastline, but if White Rock can deal with this, why can’t Surrey?

Surrey is busy building big-box stores, industrial parks, a city centre and massive housing developments; please do not forget the coastline in Surrey.J. Wood, Surrey

Noise rules differ for usEditor: Re: Not quiet on the western front, Aug. 16 letters.

I was just going to forget about an incident that occurred last week.

However, when I opened up Tuesday’s newspaper and read the letter to the editor regarding BNSF, I decided to give my “two cents” worth.

On the previous Sunday morning, at 2 a.m., I was rudely awakened by the “tooting” of the train. I mean, that guy laid on his horn for the half mile between East and West beaches. I was particularly concerned because I had my little grandson staying with me the night, and he woke up crying because of the noise.

So, on Monday morning, I phoned city hall and spoke to a gentleman. I asked if this is not a bylaw infraction. To this, he replied that the BNSF owns all that land near the waterfront and, therefore, if I wanted to complain, I would have to call the BNSF and complain to them.

Well I own my property, and if I was making loud noises at 2 a.m., waking my neighbours, wouldn’t the police be coming to my door?

Sorry, I don’t buy it. As I recall, they had agreed to refrain from using the horn during certain hours of the night, and instead rely on the bells if they felt it was warranted.

It seems to me I am not the only one who feels like we are being “bullied” by the BNSF.D. Barros, White Rock

Refocus anger not on smokersEditor: Re: It’s not just smoker who could use a little help, Aug. 11.

When I read the headline, my thought was that this was going to be a positive article.

Sadly, it turned out to be another typical Canadian whining about why should someone get something I’m not getting when I deserve it more.

Columnist Katie Bartel should do a little research. Tobacco products are taxed 800 times their retail value, and the taxes far exceed estimates of health-related costs plus the limited-time program the B.C. government offers to help smokers quit the habit.

The extra millions left over are, I presume, being used somewhere else in the health-care system.

If her being a vocal advocate of non-smoking means that all she does is loudly annoy and embarrass

people who do smoke, then she should be more constructive. It’s not something to be proud of.

Katie’s anger should focus on the B.C. government’s appalling record of waste and mismanagement, some of which is exposed by the media.

This is the source of the problem that takes away from our health care, not hapless individuals who offend her ideology of the moment.J. Edwards, Surrey

Beach area gone to seedEditor:

My/Our City by the Sea… is unkempt and uncared-for.

My husband and I went down to the beach area on the weekend for a walk, now that summer seems to have arrived. We always enjoy seeing what’s new and poking around the back lanes and streets just off the beaten path.

However, when we got to the beach itself, we were blown away by just how unkempt the grassy areas along West Beach and the tracks were.

There is a huge stand of weeds that have gone to seed and look like giant puff balls, blowing their seeds all over the grass on both sides of the promenade. Under the railing on both sides of the tracks, it hasn’t been touched and is full of weeds.

We walked further and noticed brambles are encroaching on the little paths through the weeds to the beach itself. The little pockets of natural grass are way too high to see over, if you want to sit on the grass.

Is this what we want to present to those who come to enjoy our beautiful Semiahmoo Bay? Where is the parks department? Now that we can’t use herbicides, do we just let weeds grow rampant? Is this just part of the laissez-fair attitude that seems to prevail at the beach?

There’s more to beach maintenance than just mowing the grass every now and again.Wendy Boyes, White Rock

File photoTim Uppal, minister of state for democratic reform, joins MP Russ Hiebert and about 50 attendees on Aug. 5.

Editor: Re: Hiebert, Uppal pledge Senate reform, Aug. 11.

Interesting! Our MP hosts a town-hall meeting and flies in a minister of state from Alberta to discuss Senate reform.

About four weeks after Russ Hiebert was parachuted into our South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale riding – and elected because he is a Conservative – a “town-hall” meeting was advertised in the Elk Hall for 9:30 a.m. on a Saturday. I was there. So were three or four others, plus half a dozen volunteers putting up posters and Mr. and Mrs. Hiebert. We left at 10 a.m., since at that time, nobody else had shown up and Hiebert had not come out of his corner to say good morning.

The next “town-hall” meeting was, I believe, the famous telephone hook up with Finance Minister Jim Flaherty. (Telephone town hall: by the numbers, Jan. 21). Did Hiebert answer any of the questions? We are still waiting to hear from him how much the taxpayer had to pay for this exercise.

(Editor’s note: Hiebert estimated the Jan. 17 conference call, involving 3,200 participants, would cost “pennies a call.” The next month, the final tally came in at $3,100.)

And now, this month’s meeting with a minister of state.Your reporter did not mention what Hiebert had to

say about Senate reform, only that the “long-awaited summer” was competing with the length of the meeting, one hour was enough.

Did you expect him to say anything else? I think it is your public duty as the local newspaper

to arrange a real town-hall meeting with the MP – just him and the citizens, nobody else!

I am sure you will have more than 50 people attending.Wolfgang Schmitz, White Rock

Threat to unityI am very appreciative of the attention given to my

remarks, as reported in PAN, during the Aug. 5 Senate reform town hall.

Yet, one thing not given sufficient emphasis in the article, although alluded to in my quoted remarks, is the threat to national unity this legislation represents.

It would allow provincial political parties to run candidates for Senate election during provincial elections. The provincial party winning the election would therefore most likely be the same party represented in the Canadian Parliament as senators. Senators so-elected would be accountable to the province of election rather than to all Canadians and to a provincial political party.

In the case of another future Parti Quebecois government in Quebec, that would mean PQ senators, or possibly Alberta-first Wild Rose and Saskatchewan-first Saskatchewan Party Senators, for example.

Empowering me-first provincialism in this way is surely a direct challenge to national unity.

It is a direct constitutional challenge to the Canadian federal principle, but then we shouldn’t be surprised insofar as this is the party led by Stephen Harper, who continues to speak of “provincial autonomy” and provincial jurisdiction as if it were sovereignty, and who wrote infamously of the need to build a “firewall” around Alberta to keep the Canadian government out.

Harper’s “Senate reform” looks a lot like dividing up Canada into less than the sum of its parts; as you reported, a sort of 19th-century “United States of Canada,” bickering parts teetering on the edge of un-Civil War.Brian Marlatt, White Rock

A 30-year-old Surrey man is recovering after being shot by an unknown assailant Wednesday night.

Three men were in a garage in the 8200-block of 150 Street, looking at a bicycle one of the men just bought.

Just before 11 p.m., a man about five-foot-six approached, wearing a black balaclava and hoodie, and began shooting at the group of men, striking one of them in the abdomen. The injured man, who lives next door, is expected to make a full recovery. No one else was injured.

The gunman left on foot, but the sound of squealing tires was heard shortly after.

None of the victims has any known criminal or gang connections.

RCMP Cpl. Drew Grainger said the men are being fully co-operative, but don’t know much about the shooter.

“It happened so quickly, and to their surprise, they just couldn’t believe they were being shot at,” Grainger said noting any motive, or case of mistaken identity is yet to be determined.

“We know as these investigations unfold, there’s typically a reason, and they are typically targeted,” Grainger said. “Mistaken identity is certainly a possibility.”

While the shooting has some of the earmarks of gangland shootings days earlier, Grainger said there is no tangible connection. Neighbours say the area is pleasant during the day, but some told Black Press they wouldn’t walk alone at night.

Central to the neighbourhood’s problem is drug dealing that neighbours say is going on in Morningside Park, right across the street from the shooting. Another woman claimed the area is rife with marijuana-grow operations, which invite a criminal element.

They have called police about both issues, but say nothing seems to have alleviated either problem.

Grainger said a special initiative – primarily on weekends – targets people drinking or dealing drugs in parks, including Morningside.

“In the Guildford area, we have a special group of officers who do work on an overtime basis to detect and apprehend those in drinking and drug-type activity,” Grainger said.

He also noted that grow-ops are an issue throughout the region and that Surrey RCMP are pouring significant resources into disrupting the practice. Anyone with information is asked to call 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS to remain anonymous.

Federal NDP leader Jack Layton is being remembered in Surrey and across the country as a politi-cian who transformed Canadian politics.

Layton’s death from cancer early Monday at the age of 61 prompted an outpouring of tributes.

“He changed the landscape of Canadian political history,” said Penny Priddy, a longtime Surrey New Democrat who served pro-vincially and federally.

His death comes just months after he led the NDP to Official Opposition status in Canadian Parliament, a first for the party.

Priddy, a cancer survivor herself, was an MP from 2006-2008 when there was little sign the NDP was about to score a massive break-through in the 2011 campaign.

“Regardless of what was hap-pening publicly or what number we were at in the polls, Jack was always, always positive.

“It was always about going for-ward. It was never about how we

can’t do something.”Just weeks ago, Layton held a

media conference to announce he was fighting a second bout of cancer, and was taking time away to seek treatment.

“I was just incredibly disap-pointed for Jack that after bring-ing home this astounding election result that he was going to have to step away from that,” Priddy said.

She said he brought a huge num-ber of new people into the party, particularly in Quebec.

Jinny Sims, a newly elected NDP MP in Newton-North Delta and former head of the B.C. Teachers Federation, said Layton inspired a new generation of youth.

“The one thing he gave Canadi-ans over the last few months was hope,” Sims said. “I can’t think of a greater gift. He gave us all hope there’s a new way of doing things, there’s a new way of doing politics. We will honour him by working harder to create the more progressive Canada of his dreams.”

South Surrey-White Rock-

Cloverdale MP Russ Hiebert said Layton will be missed by all Canadians.

“Jack Layton was a man of remarkable accomplishment,” the Conservative MP said.

“I had great respect for his lead-ership, having built his party into a formidable political force in Canada. And, I admired his cour-age in fighting the terrible disease that eventually took his life.”

The NDP says Layton died peacefully before 5 a.m. at his Toronto home. His wife – fellow MP Olivia Chow – and other loved ones were with him.

Prior to his death, Layton penned a letter for Canadians, released Monday, outlining his thoughts on the future of his party and his country.

He signed off with the following paragraph:

“My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we’ll change the world.”

A Surrey teen has been given two years probation for an expensive prank he pulled in North Vancouver.

The young offender, whose name cannot be published, was found guilty on 12 counts of ‘Conveying False Messages,’ a rarely used charge under the Criminal Code of Canada. The ruling comes as a result of prank phone calls place to North Vancouver businesses between Feb. 11 and Feb. 13, this year.

The teen, posing as a sprinkler maintenance worker and a fire marshal, convinced several businesses, including restaurants and hotels, to activate their sprinkler systems.

Damage was in the thousands of dollars.

Along with the two-year support and supervision probation order, the youth must adhere to the following conditions:

• have no contact or go to a total of 12 North Vancouver businesses

• not to possess a cell phone or mobile device

• not to possess or consume alcohol or drugs

• to be placed under House Arrest and not to go outside except with prior written permission of a Probation Officer

“There is a strong message here to anyone who may think of using prank calls as a means of irresponsible entertainment” states North Vancouver Cpl. Richard De Jong.

The teen may also face civil action to cover the damage costs.

A Surrey radio host flatly rejects allegations made regard-ing remarks on his show after a woman was murdered last month.

The Surrey Women’s Centre (SWC) is planning to lodge a complaint with the Canadian Radio-television and Telecom-munications Commission (CRTC) that Harjinder Thind’s call-in show on RED FM ques-tioned the freedoms of women in this country. It aired the day after the July 28 killing of 24-year-old Ravinder Bhangu.

SWC spokesperson Corrine Arthur said Thind was question-

ing whether women in this coun-try had too many rights.

“It was so horrific,” Arthur said last week. “I believe there was the intention to be inflammatory.”

Arthur said she waited for a challenge of Thind’s question, and it didn’t come.

“Instead, what ended up hap-pening is he gave air time to some pretty disturbing com-ments,” she said.

Arthur said she received several complaints from her staff and clients, who were listening to the Punjabi-language broadcast.

Thind, however, told Black Press the comments have been completely misconstrued.

“They haven’t even heard the

whole show, they just took some callers’ clips, or whatever some-body told them,” Thind said.

Thind noted he and RED FM have raised thousands of dol-lars annually to combat domes-tic violence. His show, “Save Our Daughters,” is designed to shed light on domestic violence in the community.

“Somebody has to do this, it’s serious work,” Thind said, add-ing the series hosts discussions on how laws can better protect women. “We’re working for the rights of the women to improve their lifestyles.”

He added it’s a live show where listeners call in to express their opinions.

perspectives…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Hannah SutherlandStaff Reporter

Although Surrey Urban Mission Society runs out of North Surrey –

providing services to people who are homeless and living in poverty – there is little question the Semiahmoo Peninsula plays a role in its success.

Just ask volunteer and South Surrey resident Patricia Jessen, who has been garnering local support for the community centre for the past six months.

For Jessen, it doesn’t make a difference where one lives in Surrey – or in White Rock, for that matter – because everyone is part of a larger community.

“The official city boundaries

don’t need to create boundaries in our care for one another.”

Surrey Urban Mission Society (SUMS) is a ministry of the BC Synod of the Evangelical Church in Canada, and is located at 13388 104 Ave. in Whalley.

It was through Mount Olive Lutheran Church at 148 Street and 24 Avenue – which Jessen has been a member of for 18 years – that she learned about SUMS when it started 10 years ago.

Now retired, Jessen took on the role in February of liaison between the society and Mount Olive, communicating the

needs of SUMS to the local congregation.

“I’ve always had a passion for people in need and ways I can help out,” she said. “I’ve been blessed with an abundance of needs in my life and I like to share

them with others.”The local church

hosts two dinners a year in benefit of SUMS, and numerous congregation members volunteer at the centre, cooking

and serving meals to people who can’t afford to purchase food throughout the week. The combined support from various volunteers and organizations allows the society to serve more

than 1,200 meals a week.“We have a calling as a

compassionate member of the larger community to reach out and to share whatever gifts we have whether it’s time or talent or financial or organization gifts – whatever gifts we have,” Jessen said. “It’s just an overall awareness of the needs of people who might not have the abundance of daily needs that some of us do.”

And while some residents south of Whalley may not be aware of SUMS’ services, the relocation of city hall to the area may heighten its profile, Jessen noted.

“We’re very hopeful it will mean good and positive and kind of a renewed awareness of SUM’s existence.”

In the meantime, the society is gearing up for a commemoration of its 10th anniversary, and everyone in the community is invited to take part or contribute.

The inaugural Soup de Jour Celebration will be held Sept. 23 from 5 to 9 p.m. at Viceroy Banquet Hall, 8580 132 St.

Surrey restaurants are donating soup for the evening, which will also feature mocktails, food, local entertainment and auctions.

In keeping with the mission’s tradition, the event is free of charge. All proceeds will benefit SUMS’ programs and services.

For more information, call 604-581-5172 or email [email protected]

To get involved locally, call Jessen at 604-786-4711.

A White Rock hairstylist has won national honours for her skills, after taking third place among Cana-dian competitors in a hair-design challenge presented by beauty-product company La Biosthetique of Paris.

Stephanie Wright – owner of Mystique Hair Design on Marine Drive – was recog-nized for the “striking, yet everyday-stylish cut” she cre-ated for her model and fellow stylist, Jenna Blaauwandraat.

“I took into account Jenna’s face, shape and complexion, and went for a look that is quite structured and required precision cutting,” Wright said in a release, noting another Mys-tique employee, Jessica Sutherland, provided makeup expertise.

“I wanted to create something time-less and elegant and at the same time wearable for the everyday client.”

Before-and-after pho-tos were sent to Germany for review by an elite panel of judges – who also took makeup and fashion choices into account – with the end result being a third-place fin-ish for Wright in the ‘cut’ category.

The recognition has been gratifying, and she’s happy to bring international style sensibility to White Rock, the

release states.“I wanted to prove that you don’t

have to be a big name in an urban centre to be at the forefront of what’s happening in hair design,” Wright said. “It shouldn’t be just about what works on a runway in Paris. It’s about finding the look that works best for each individual and their particular lifestyle.”

Thirteen countries were invited to participate in the challenge.

Stylist gets national nod

The Surrey Board of Trade signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Canada India Business Council last week.

The MOU is intended to promote two-way trade, investment, economic co-operation and international market-ing opportunities.

“We’ve done a lot of work with Vivek Savkur, the president of the B.C. chap-

ter of the Canada India Business Coun-cil,” Board of Trade president Mary Jane Stenberg said in a release.

“Vivek was our key contact on the Sur-rey Board of Trade’s business delegation to India this past April. The connec-tions that we made – over 330 meetings in six days – and the MOUs we signed with our chamber and industry associa-tion partners were invaluable.”

Animal lovers in the Surrey area are urged to slide into their favourite pair of walking shoes next month and get moving to help a furry friend.

Registration is open for the annual Scotiabank and BC SPCA Paws for a Cause walk held each fall to raise funds for homeless and abused animals in the province.

Every year, participants in 37 communities around B.C. walk with colleagues, friends, family and their dogs to raise $1 million to help animals in need.

“This is the largest single event supporting animals in B.C.,” the society’s director of development, Denise Meade, said in a release. “Participants are already signing up and will be fundraising in their own communities all summer long.

“The remarkable creativity and passion that people show each year is remarkable.”

Last year, can-collecting canine Katie raised hundreds of dollars by collecting cans on her daily walks and returning them for refunds.

“As far as we know, Katie was the only non-human to personally sign up,” Meade said. “And what’s more, she actually did her own fundraising.”

Paws for a Cause will be held in Crescent Park, 2610 Crescent Rd., Sept. 11.

Registration begins at 9:30 a.m., and walk time is at 11 a.m.

Activities will include a dog agility demonstration, canine disc throwing, clicker training demo, shelter dog parade, kids’ activity tent and face painting.

To register and for more information, visit spca.bc.ca/walk

Keeping it in the familyA love of food and entertaining has evolved

into a family focused entrepreneurial venture for South Surrey’s Cathy Gates.

After a variety of careers – including managing a home-furnishing chain and working in rehabilitation for brain injury patients – Gates has teamed up with her partner, Dorothy, sister, Lorna and Dorothy’s nephew, Dov, to open a new market and deli in Crescent Beach.

Aptly named Thitsas – Greek for “aunties” – Gates said the market is something the family has been thinking of embarking on for several years, inspired by other small markets they have enjoyed shopping at over.

“We ourselves have always shopped at smaller markets,” Gates explained. “We really liked the idea and the atmosphere and thought, ‘let’s give it a shot.’ For the past 10 to 15 years it’s been a dream to have something like this.”

The family had a fairly healthy fan-base for their cooking before going into the market project – Cathy and Dorothy had been preparing and selling spanakopita from their home, which became so popular they were getting orders for as many as 60 to 80 dozen per month.

With Thitsas, they’ve expanded to included traditional deli fare, plus other take-home delights such as moussaka, lamb stew and patitsio. Gates said they also strive to carry natural, higher quality and more nutritious snacks and candy, something she said has been well-received by the customers.

“From the local people here guiding us into what sort of things they’d like to see, it was definitely an emphasis on much more nutritious, healthier item,” she said.

Since opening in late spring, Gates said they’ve really enjoyed getting to know the diverse clientele, many of whom have a lot of history in

the Crescent Beach community. “The history down here is very rich – that is

something that was unexpected,” she said. “The amount of people who have lived down here for years upon years, it’s really interesting.”

The recipe Gates chose to share comes from Dorothy’s Aunt Danae, who moved to Canada from Greece in the 1930s and is one of several

family recipes on the menu at Thitsas. “All the old family recipes that have

been passed down – that’s what we try to keep with.”

Shrimp in Tomato Wine & Feta CheeseIngredients4 medium-sized tomatoes 1 small onion, finely chopped 1/2 cup dry white wine1/2 cup finely chopped parsley, divided1/2 tsp. crushed, dried oregano 1/2 tsp. salt & black pepper

1 cup crumbled feta cheese3/4 pound cooked, shelled shrimp1/4 cup olive oil

InstructionsBlanch tomatoes in boiling water and peel (or use

diced tomatoes in canned, with most of the juice removed). If they are fresh, core them, and chop them coarsely to remove seeds and juices.

Place olive oil in a large frying pan with onions. Cook the onions for approximately four minutes until they are soft, but not brown. Stir in the tomatoes, wine and half the parsley, oregano, salt and pepper.

Bring to a boil and cook over high heat uncovered till the mixture thickens to a light puree. Add cheese and shrimp and heat just to warm through. Taste for seasoning and sprinkle with remaining parsley.

Serve over rice. Makes four servings.

Morton’s Neuroma is one of many foot conditions the staff and pedorthists at Strides Pedorthics frequently see. Owner and pedorthist, Michael Gorman explains. “Morton’s Neuroma is the most common neuroma in the foot”, says Michael. “ It is characterized by pain in the ball of the foot frequently radiating into the toes, commonly between the 2nd and 3rd toes, or the 3rd and 4th toes.A neuroma is an enlargement or thickening of the nerve that is

caused by compression or irritation. This causes the nerve to swell and can eventually lead to permanent nerve damage.

Symptoms of Morton’s Neuroma are a tingling, a burning or numbness, or a feeling like something is inside the ball of your foot. Most often, a Morton’s Neuroma develops gradually and, at fi rst, can occur occasionally when wearing narrow shoes or during certain activities. Over time, the symptoms can worsen and become more intense as the Neuroma becomes larger. Over time, changes in the nerve can become permanent.

The most common cause of Morton’s Neuroma is wearing shoes that have an excessively tapered toe box, or high heeled shoes that overload pressure onto the forefoot. Most at risk are people with bunions, hammer toes, fl at feet and fl exible feet, as well as women after pregnancy.

“People diagnosed with Morton’s Neuroma are typically treated

with accommodative footwear to reduce compression and pressure on the nerve”, says Michael. “If necessary, custom foot orthotics may be recommended”. For 14 years, Strides Pedorthic s has helped clients in the Lower Mainland to keep moving by providing them with custom foot orthotics, orthopaedic modifi cations and the most comfortable footwear available. The staff at Strides would be delighted to assist you with Morton’s Neuroma pain or any other foot-related problems. And by the way….. beautiful, comfortable, healthy Fall ’11 footwear are arriving daily!

Outside The BoxThe upcoming Semiahmoo

Peninsula celebration of an often overlooked idiom – fibre and textile art – is called Outside The Box.

It’s a very appropriate title, given organizers have put it together in the space of one year with no funding, no society and no arbitrary division between White Rock and South Surrey venues.

What they have done, instead is to forge a partnership with the City of White Rock, White Rock Library, White Rock Museum and Archives and the White Rock BIA, along with Semiahmoo Arts, Surrey Public Library, and Semiahmoo Shopping Centre.

The result will be a series of exciting events and displays throughout the Peninsula from Sept. 1 to Oct. 21, highlighting fibre and textile art and illustrating how practitioners are pushing the boundaries “outside the box.”

These will include Fiber Fusion, a six-by-nine-foot collaborative mural by more than 20 members of the Virtuosi Infraganti Collective (opening Sept. 1) at White Rock Museum and Archives; a main display at White Rock Community Centre (Sept. 10-Oct. 21); demonstrations and ‘fun with fibre’ displays at the White Rock BIA’s Uptown Summersault Festival (Sept.

10); informative wall texts to accompany the displays, by the Women, Art and Society class at Langara College; and an exhibition of art quilts by the Crescent Quilters and the ‘Piece Arch’ Quilters at the White Rock Library, which will also feature the launch of the book Hoopla: The Art of Unexpected Embroidery by ‘yarn bombing” author Leanne Prain (Sept. 19), and a presentation by Anne Kristiansen, Interwoven Stories: A History of Textiles in Fashion and Art (Sept. 26).

Also on offer will be a day of displays and demonstrations by weavers, spinners and quilters at the Zeller’s court area of Semiahmoo Shopping Centre (Sept. 24); plus exhibitions, workshops and demonstrations at Laura’s Fashion Fabrics through September; two evenings of fashion art and flowers presented by Boutique Vasanji and Flowers Chic (Sept. 10, Oct. 2); displays by the Peace Arch Weavers and Spinners at the Semiahmoo and Ocean Park Libraries and displays by the South Surrey and White Rock Art Society at Coast Capital Playhouse.

For more information, visit www.outsidetheboxwhiterock.com

Uptown street festivalThe White Rock BIA’s Uptown

Street Festival will return Sept. 10, 11 a.m.-4 p.m., featuring everything from arts displays to live entertainment and a chili tasting. Main stage entertainment will feature Red Beans and Rice,

Yours Truly and Freedom 95, while the Todd Brewer School of Music will have its own stage featuring talented local students.

The festival’s Performance Stage will presnt dynamic demonstrations of yoga, martial arts and ballroom dancing.

Also included will be the Outside The Box art exhibition, a family fun zone and a chili cook-off. For more information, contact [email protected]

Bedfull of ForeignersThere are still a few chances to

catch the wacky British bedroom farce A Bedfull of Foreigners – directed by Ellie King for her Royal Canadian Theatre Company – which continues until Aug. 28 in 8 p.m. performances at the Coast Capital Playhouse (1532 Johnston Rd.).

The high-energy door-slammer, set in decaying hotel on the border between France and Germany, features strong farceur Sam Gordon as Stanley, a non-too-bright British holidaymaker who must juggle an unexpected roomate Claude (Walter Ekins, in fine bullying form) plus Claude’s wife Helga (the hilarious Wendy Bollard) and his scantily-clad mistress Simone (played extravagantly by Becky Hachey).

Also contributing to the chaos are Gary Peterman (splendid as slothful handyman Karak) and Brett Harrison (funny as inept and randy manager Heinz) and Nicole Smashnuk as Stanley’s wife Brenda (amusing in her responses to Heinz’ flattery).

For tickets, call 604-536-7535 or visit www.rctheatreco.com

FatheadThe White Rock Blues Society

will present Fathead, Sept. 16, 8 p.m. at the Rhumba Room of the Pacific Inn. The ensemble brings together some of the most respected blues musicians in Canada for an energetic blend of funk, soul and rocking blues.

Featured are lead vocalist John Mays, bandleader, harp and saxophonist Al Lerman, bassist Omar Tunnoch, guitarist Teddy Leonard and drummer Bucky Berger. For tickets and information, visit www.whiterockblues.com

Small RitualDoing its part to present

different music locally is the not-for-profit Small Ritual Coffee Society on Johnston Road (just up from Five Corners).

In addition to Sunday night concerts with such emerging groups as Their There, The Star Captains and Behind Sapphire, booker Rory Hislop has added a Monday night jazz showcase, including some of Vancouver’s best up and coming talents in the idiom, which is currently experiencing a revival of interest.

Among artists that have graced – or will grace this series – are guitarist Tristan Paxton, bassist James Meger, drummer Omar Amlani and trumpeter Steve An.

Both evenings (usually running 5-9 p.m.) offer a rewarding opportunity for local fans to catch up on the music scene of tomorrow in an agreeably intimate, art-friendly venue.

For more information, call 778-294-1237.

Swing dancingThe weekly swing dance session

presented by South Surrey’s Marie and Peter Welton, of Jump Joint Swing, has switched days from Sundays to every Wednesday (during August) 7 to 11 p.m. at 110-12332 Pattullo Place (in the back of the Pro Draft warehouse, next to Xcalibur Bowling, in North Surrey). All ages are welcome, and the cost for the live show is $10 (usual session price is $5). Net proceeds benefit the Metro Kids Society. For more information, visit jumpjointswing.com or call 778-867-1457.

Adrian MichaelAdrian Michael, a 16 year-

old jazz piano prodigy, plays at Iguana’s on Marine Drive with his trio every Thursday at 6:30 p.m. through the summer.

Currently students of Semiahmoo Secondary’s jazz program, Michael and regular bassist Abby David, who usually work with drummer Matt Skepasts (unavailable for the gigs), will be playing with subs – most likely Natalie Yergatian or Michael’s brother Julian.

Michael, who also composes many of his tunes, will also be doing his first studio recording this summer with David and Skepasts.

sports…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Nick GreenizanSports Reporter

White Rock rugby player Adam Kleeberger will compete on the game’s largest stage next month, when he suits up for Canada at the Rugby World Cup.

The World Cup, to be played in New Zealand, begins in mid-September; Canada’s first game is Sept. 14 against Tonga.

“It’s exciting, and something we’ve been looking forward to, for sure,” Kleeberger said.

Kleeberger, a 27-year-old Semiahmoo Secondary grad, plays flanker with the national side and is no stranger to international competition.

He made his Team Canada debut in 2005, when he played for the national U21 team in France, and he’s also suited up for B.C.’s U19 squad, and played at the Commonwealth Games and the 2007 World Cup.

However, the feeling of wearing the national team’s colours never gets old, he said.

“It’s a different experience this time around, because I’m one of the older guys on the team, but the chance to represent your country is always a huge honour,” he said from Victoria, where he was preparing to leave with his team for Australia. Once Down

Under, the squad will play a few exhibition games before the World Cup gets underway.

“This is the marquee event for our sport, so it’s always a special thing.”

Kleeberger, who has also played in the past with the Bayside Rugby Club, still keeps close ties with the community.

In fact, according to his father, Bruce, Kleeberger has pledged to bring home from the World Cup some type of memento he will

then present to his old secondary school, where he played under the tutelage of Semi’s former rugby coach Paul Horne.

“Adam feels he owes a lot to his teachers, mentors and coaches at Semi,” Bruce said.

Peninsula rugby fans should have plenty of opportunity to watch Kleeberger in action when the World Cup kicks off – certain games throughout the tournament will be broadcast on TSN, which is a first for the event.

“We’re trying to raise the profile of the sport, and get more kids involved, so (being on TV) is great,” he said.

Canada will be in Pool A, along with France, Japan, Tonga and New Zealand.

The contest against the New Zealand All Blacks, slated for Oct. 2, will be featured on TSN.

Renegades ‘95 win gold at nationals Nick GreenizanSports Reporter

The White Rock Renegades ’95 went undefeated through five days of competition at 2011 Bantam Girls Canadian Fastpitch Championships last week in Winnipeg, capturing the national title with a 7-3 victory over Ontario’s Ajax Raiders in Sunday’s gold-medal game.

White Rock was led in the championship tilt by Sara

Groenewegen, who not only earned the win by pitching a seven-inning complete game with five strikeouts and no walks, but also hit a two-run home run in the third inning to extend her team’s lead to 3-0; Groenewegen was also responsible for her team’s first run when she singled home Toryce Westgard in the first frame.

Andrea Sidor and Westgard also had RBI for the Renegades, and shortstop Cheyanne Head was 3-for-4 at the

plate, with two runs scored.The national crown is the fifth for

White Rock coach Chuck Westgard, who four times led the Renegades ’91 to Canadian titles. Earlier this summer, many players from that ’91 team helped guide the Renegades senior ‘A’ team to a national title in Montreal, under head coach Wayne King.

White Rock advanced to the finals after again beating Ajax – for the third time in the tournament – 4-3 on

Saturday night a game that needed eight innings to decide.

Head had the other two runs-batted-in in the contest, and Brooke Anderson pitched all eight innings for the Renegades, striking out six.

Heading into the tournament, Renegades ’95 coach Chuck Westgard said how his team performed in their first two games – against the two tough Ontario seeds – would be indicative of

Top honoursThree Surrey members of the

Burnaby Mountain Selects lacrosse program were honoured this month at top student-athletes.

Spencer Bromley, an Earl Marriott Secondary student, Fraser Academy’s Niklas Friesen and Cloverdale Catholic School’s Patrick Shoemay were all awarded 2010/11 Scholar Athlete Awards by the lacrosse association. The awards were created to recognize academic achievement and on-field excellence. UBC signing

Former Surrey Eagles captain Ilan Cumberbirch was among eight

recruits who last week signed to play hockey this fall with the University of B.C. Thunderbirds.

Cumberbirch, a six-foot-two defenceman, played in the BC Hockey League from 2006-09, spending time with both the

Burnaby Express and the Eagles. He captained the Eagles his final season.

“It’s very exciting to be playing back in my hometown in a familiar environment, surrounded with good people,” said

Cumberbirch, a Vancouver native. “I am really looking forward to the

challenges and opportunities which lie ahead.”

UBC opens the 2011/12 Canada West regular season Oct. 7 and 8

with home games against the Calgary Dinos.Skating school

Parents thinking of registering their youngsters for skating lessons will have the opportunity next week to get a first-hand look at a new program.

Elite Skating by Kim Marfleet is set to launch this fall, and an open house is scheduled for Aug. 30, from 4-5:30 p.m. at Planet Ice in Delta (10388 Nordel Court), which is where the program is based.

Marfleet said her program is focused on a young age group, from two-and-a-half to five years old, and is ideal to give future hockey players and figure skaters a head start.

whether or not they’d be contenders for the title.

It’s safe to say they passed the test. White Rock opened the tournament Wednesday with a convincing 10-2 win over the Brampton Blazers, then followed up later in the day with a 7-0 shutout of Ontario’s top-seeded Ajax Raiders.

White Rock got off to a great start against Brampton, scoring nine runs in the top half of the first inning, thanks to a handful of singles, three consecutive doubles – from Sydney Brown, Toryce Westgard and Cheyanne Head.

The ’Gades tacked on another run in the second; pitcher Tori Belton was credited with the win.

Against Ajax, the two teams were scoreless until the fourth, when the Renegades went up 1-0 on an RBI single from Madison Tomkow, and then broke the game open with six more runs in the fifth.

Third baseman Andrea Sidor and first baseman Aldyen Krieger each had doubles in the game, while Head lead the way with two RBI.

Pitcher Groenewegen went the distance for White Rock, striking out eight through five innings, while allowing just one hit and walking a pair.

On Thursday, White Rock continued its round-robin roll, beating Saskatchewan’s Southey Eagles 10-1 and the Calgary Diamond Devils 10-2.

Friday morning, White Rock moved to 5-0 with an 8-0 shutout over Calgary Kaizen ’95.

Peewees in semifinals

In peewee national championships action in Vaughan, Ont., the White Rock Renegades ’97 battled their way into playoff action Saturday, where they defeated the Guelph squad 3-1. After falling 7-1 to Mississauga the following morning, the ’97 Renegades were defeated in a semifinal showdown against Guelph by a score of 3-2. Mississauga went on to defeat Guelph in the gold-medal game Sunday afternoon 7-2.

Nick GreenizanSports Reporter

Though their own seasons were at an end, three members of the South Surrey-White Rock Thun-der played key roles in helping another club – the Nanaimo Dia-monds – win a Western Cana-dian Midget B Fastpitch title.

Cassi McCulloch, a pitcher for the SS-WR Thunder ‘93 team, and two Thunder ‘94 players, Erin Donnelly and Cody Hibbert, were picked up by the Diamonds prior to the Western Canadian tournament, which was held ear-lier this month in Medicine Hat, Alta.

The three Thunder players were eligible to play because their own seasons were over. McCulloch’s ‘93 team actually finished higher than the Diamonds at provin-cials, finishing third to Nanaimo’s fourth-place showing, but did not register for westerns.

And it was her pitching prow-ess against the Diamonds in B.C. championships that convinced the Island squad she could help them out.

“We got to talking with the coach and he said, ‘your daugh-ter really gave us a lot of trouble out there,’” said Steve McCulloch,

Cassi’s father.The Diamonds won the West-

ern title with a 7-4 win over Saskatchewan’s Pilot Butte Storm in the championship game. They got down 4-0 early before bat-tling back to win.

McCulloch, who pitched every second game for Nanaimo, got the starting nod in the final, and struck out the final batter to end the game.

While McCulloch excelled in

the pitcher’s circle, Donnelly and Hibbert were outstanding in the batter’s box. Hibbert batted an astounding .700 during the tournament – in which Nanaimo went undefeated – and also had four home runs, while Donnelly hit better than .400.

The Diamonds were the first team to go undefeated at West-erns in 25 years.

7 OBITUARIES

FEE - Guida Andrea

Passed away early on a sunny Thursday morning August 4, 2011 in Burnaby BC after a fi erce battle with colorectal cancer. Andrea was born July 25, 1963 in Kelowna BC, the last of six children born to John and Guida Fee, both of whom predeceased her. Andrea leaves behind hus-band Clayten (Ranger) and two wonderful sons Kyle (23) and Aeron (18). Also survived by sisters Trish and Jane, brothers Jeff (Sandy), Tom (Gail) and Jim (Pam) along with Pete and Lorraine Hill of Victoria, Diana Hill of North Vancouver, the Knapp, Hill and Hood families including 15 cousins, and 11 nieces and nephews (Dave and Jen, Pat and Chris, Josh and Julia, Sarah, Katie and Megan and Chloe and Taylor). She leaves behind a host of friends and co-workers both in and out of the hospital community. Andrea worked in the lab at Royal Columbian Hospital for the past 23 years. She fought to the end, never lost her sense of humour and never gave up. A celebration of Andrea’s life will take place Sunday August 28, 2011 from noon to 3 p.m. at the Scandi-navian Cultural Centre, 6540 Thomas Street, Burnaby BC. No fl owers please, but dona-tions to the charity of your choice would be appreciated including to the Palliative Care Unit at Burnaby Hospital or to the Fraser Valley Cancer Cen-tre in Andrea’s memory. Grateful thanks to all who cared for her so compassion-ately over the last six months. She is now singing karaoke in that big pub in the sky. Andrea, we love you.

Tuesday, August 23, 2011 Peace Arch News28 www.peacearchnews.com

Honestly, it’s OK if you would rather stare at the picture of the car than read the rest of the ad. In fact,

we kind of designed the All-New 2012 Passat so you wouldn’t have to read ads like this. The sleek,

sophisticated lines should speak for themselves, saying things like, “Sure it looks great on the outside,

but wait until you see the amazing standard features, like Bluetooth® connectivity and the leather-

wrapped steering wheel, in the very spacious and comfortable interior that even boasts class-leading

rear seat legroom*.” So, go ahead, look at the picture again and then look at the price below. Then

you’ll really know what we mean when we say the 2012 Passat pretty much sells itself.

Just look at the picture again.
