A new race season dawns

JENNIFER LANG PHOTOCarla Robin, executive director of Harness Racing B.C., and driver/trainerGord Abbott pose with De Deuce, one of the equine stars of Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino. Robin says when racing is in full swing, the economic benefi ts are felt on 176 Street in Cloverdale and across B.C.

By Jennifer LangGet an insider’s view of

standardbred horse racing this Saturday (Sept. 19), when the Backstretch at Fra-ser Downs Racetrack and Ca-sino hosts its annual kickoff to the fall racing season.

With an $11 million over-haul and rebranding of the former Cloverdale Raceway as ‘Elements Casino’ set to launch this winter, those on the racing side of the equa-tion are eager to showcase their sport to fans and new-comers alike.

Visitors of all ages can watch horse-shoeing demon-strations, take guided barn tours, or ride alongside a professional driver in a jog cart pulled by one of this year’s equine stars.

Backstretch Day is a chance to learn more about an exciting sport – and a proud industry that sup-ports hundreds of direct and spin-off jobs in Surrey and

across B.C., says Carla Robin, a veteran horsewoman who took the reins as executive director of Harness Racing B.C. in March.

“I think the horse racing in Cloverdale is the best kept secret in Surrey,” says Robin, adding, “More people need to come out to Fraser Downs at

Elements Casino.” Th e parking lot is full on

race nights, but Robin is sur-prised by how many people don’t realize there is live horse racing or that horses live in the barns year-round.

“Th ey say, oh my God, there’s horses in Cloverdale?”

Or, they wonder, is that place still running?

“Th ey know there’s a casino, but they don’t know there’s a racetrack within it,” adds Sandra Roberts, an owner and trainer who lives in Cloverdale, where she’s a tireless advocate for an industry that’s also a way of life for successive generations of local families.

Both women say there’s a lot riding on the new season, getting underway Oct. 1 aft er a fi ve-month hiatus.

Horse racing in the prov-ince is subject to the B.C. Horse Racing Industry Man-agement Committee, made up of stakeholders from each sector – the Public Gaming and Enforcement Branch and B.C. Lottery Corp., the horse racing associations and the operator, Great Canadian Gaming.

FILE PHOTODozens of spectators turned out for qualifying races at Cloverdale’s Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino during an open house at the backstretch in 2011. The annual event is organized by Harness Racing B.C.

Robin: longer racing season would benefi t Cloverdale

Nature club starts up

Hey, kids, want to take a walk on the wild side?

South Surrey-based Urban Safari Rescue Society is taking registra-tions for the next session of its Nature Club for kids. Participants aged six to

12 will spend two hours a week for seven weeks learning about animals through craft s, games and activities.

Each week is diff erent. Join the fun! Call 604-531-1100 or email [email protected].

Inspecting a stick insect.

was inked guaranteeing live rac-ing at Fraser Downs for the next fi ve years, but the season will shrink to six months in 2016, something horsemen have been lobbying against, in part because their operating costs are year-round.

Th e deal also extends the fund-ing arrangement; racing receives a proportional revenue from slot machines.

Th e agreement off ers stabil-ity for the industry in the short term, but not necessarily long-term assurances.

“We need people to come out to support the racing,” says Rob-in. “Learn about it and get more involved, and have fun wagering.”

Th e horsemen want to rein-state a 10-month season.

“I believe we can make a come-back,” she says.

“We have to have the racetrack go back to full operations. We have the horses to do it. We have the passion to do it.”

Th e health of the racetrack has

a direct impact on local small businesses – from tack and feed shops, and farriers and veterinar-ians, to horse breeders and even farmers – so a return to a longer season would benefi t the com-munity of Cloverdale, too.

Robin says the racetrack sup-ports as many as 300 people, and their infl uence is felt when racing is in session.

“If there was more harness racing, you would have a much healthier small business commu-nity here,” she says.

“Th is summer, there were no horsemen and their families picking up food in downtown Cloverdale. But when the racing is on, those people have more in-come.”

She believes a shorter season hurts the industry’s ability to at-tract new blood – young people and women.

She and Roberts point out more than a handful of current drivers got their start as teens, working their way up from mucking out stables.

“A lot of the guys start at 15

working in the barns,” she says.Lord Tweedsmuir Second-

ary alumni include Jim Marino (making a comeback from an injury earlier this year), Jim-my Burke, Rene Goulet, and Rod Th erres. Other locals in-clude Dave Hudon, the Abbots –  George, John, and Mark, and Billy Davis Jr., one of Canada’s top drivers.

“Look at all the jobs and ca-reers people have found here. With racing being stifl ed, how do we provide opportunities?” asks Robin.

Backstretch Day runs from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sept. 19.

Get to know a horse, have your picture taken, and see what it takes to look aft er the four-legged athletes, she says.

To fi nd the barns, turn at the log archway at 176 Street and 62 Avenue (Bill Reid Way). Th e backstretch is located across from the Agriplex building on the Cloverdale Fairgrounds.

Why use Tinted Primer?Instead of using white primer, have it tinted similar to the fi nish paint. Tinted primer is more effective at covering the existing paint color than plain primer, so your fi nish coat will be more vibrant and may require fewer coats.

Explaining the ethics of the photoI was glancing through my Facebook feed

a few mornings ago — chewing on a slice of toast, and scrolling aimlessly past

the usual assortment of cats and babies and “You won’t believe how she got revenge on her cheating husband”-style bumf — when I  spotted something that stopped my fi nger, mid-swipe.

In a post, a friend had expressed her outrage at the media in general for hav-ing the insensitivity to publish a photo of a three-year-old Syrian boy, whose body had washed up on a beach in Turkey.

“How dare they?” “Uncaring swine!” her Greek chorus of supporters chimed in along down the line.

With great restraint, I resisted sticking in my oar. Th is wasn’t a conversation among my own friend group and I don’t think of Facebook as an ideal place to engage in complex political debate.

But silence wasn’t an option I found overly appealing either — not when there is so much at stake.

My response, had I posted it, would have been this:

Of course we don’t want to look at that photo. It’s upsetting as hell.

But we need to look at it — for exactly the reason that it kindled  such a raw emotional outburst among that group of Facebook friends.

Alan Kurdi died, along with his mother

and brother, during his family’s desperate attempt to fl ee their war-torn homeland for a chance to live their lives free from violence, famine and disease.

Oxfam Canada puts the death toll of the Syrian confl ict at more than 200,000 so far.

In addition, more than four million Syrian refugees are liv-ing in neighbouring countries. In Syria alone more than 12 million people are in need of water, food, and shelter.

 But these are just num-bers. And we, as a society, are growing increasingly numb to numbers. When we hear them, we shake our heads, mutter a few platitudes about how sad it all is, maybe write a cheque and then carry on with our day.

If it takes the image of small child’s body washed up on a beach to start a meaningful conversation about what his happening to real, fl esh-and-blood human beings, then, as sad as that truth is, the photo needs to be published and shared.

Alan isn’t being victimized by its publica-tion. He’s gone.

Gone, like thousands before him and, without a doubt, thousands more to come.

In journalism ethics classes, we’re taught to weigh what people are OK with seeing in

the morning paper over their bowl of cereal against the news value that any given photo carries. Oft en, it’s a question of degrees of gruesomeness.

Th e photo of Alan isn’t gruesome — far from it. He could well be sleeping.

But we know he isn’t sleeping, and nothing about that is OK.

Th e photo has been compared to another famous shot — that of a Vietnamese girl whose clothes were burned off by napalm. 

Th at horrifying image was crucial in putting an end to an unpopular war. 

Two weeks ago in Surrey, Alan’s story managed to knock the prime minister off message

— during what is arguably the most tightly scripted campaign

in Canadian history — to talk about the na-tion’s immigration policy and our role in the Syrian confl ict.

As we head toward the federal election, now is the ideal time to let candidates know where you stand on both issues.

Th e only chance we have to eff ect real change is to care enough about what is hap-pening to demand that change.

Or, we can all just go back to our breakfast. – Brenda Anderson is editor of the Langley Times, a

sister paper to the Reporter.

It’s a really old toy. It’s like, who would do this?From front

When Vriezen went to retrieve the toys about an hour later, three – a tricycle, scooter, and the bright red fi re truck – were gone.

She says the trike and scooter can be replaced, but the little red fi re engine is unique.

It belonged to her son-in-law, who grew up to work as a volunteer fi refi ghter in Langley.

Her youngest grand-son Kingston, 1, was to inherit it when he’s older.

“It’s a really old toy,” she said. “It’s like, who would do this?”

Along with scour-

ing the neighbourhood searching in vain for clues, Vriezen has taken her quest to Craigslist but has not yet reported

the theft to police.“What are the police

going to do?” she lamented. “Th e police aren’t going to care

about a kid’s toy.”Contact Vriezen at

604-319-1725 or by email at [email protected].

CONTRIBUTED PHOTOBrielle, 3, and her little sister Emmie play with the truck last week before its theft.

DisappointedTo the editor;As a long time advocate for

public education, choice pro-grams and French second lan-guage learning, it is very disap-pointing to hear that the new Early French Immersion pro-gram at Cougar Creek Elemen-

tary will not open due to lack of enrollment.

It has been 22 years since Sur-rey School District opened a new Early French Immersion pro-gram so I applaud the district for providing the opportunity when classroom space in Surrey is not easy to fi nd. With a waiting list for Early French Immersion of

over 220 families it is very dif-fi cult for me to understand why the enrollment was not maxi-mized in the new program. In my opinion, it will be very hard to convince the School District to open another program anytime soon.

‘He taught us the awesome power of one’

By Melissa SmalleyWhen Alison Ince

treated a young man undergoing a leg ampu-tation in 1977, she and the other nursing staff at Royal Columbian Hospital knew there was something special about him.

“He was the kind of

patient that stood out in your memory,” Ince, the hospital’s former associ-ate director of nursing, recently told the White Rock Rotary club.

Ince, who has just turned 80, shared her memories of Terry Fox, the young Port Co-quitlam man who cap-tured the world’s atten-

tion when he embarked on a cross-Canada run in 1980 to raise money and awareness for can-cer research.

Ince’s visit to South Surrey came 35 years to the day that Terry was forced to abandon his Marathon of Hope outside of Th under Bay, Ont., when doctors dis-covered his cancer had spread to his lungs.

Refl ecting upon her time spent as Terry’s nurse, Ince, a Surrey resident, described him as stubborn, with a great sense of humour, an enormous sense of fam-ily and a penchant for modesty.

“He never considered himself special, or that what he did was ex-traordinary,” Ince said.

In early 1980, when Ince fi rst learned about Terry’s ambitious plan to run across the coun-try, she was not overly surprised.

“We all thought if FILE PHOTOTerry Fox ran more than 5,000 kilometres on his Marathon of Hope before he was forced to stop.

anyone could do it, he could,” she said.

She and the rest of the staff at RCH followed his progress closely, rooting him on, like millions of others across Canada.

Upon hearing the devastating news that his cancer had returned 143 days and 5,373 ki-lometers into his trek, Ince said she reacted in a way that was “typi-cal of the medical and

nursing staff .”“I said a very rude

word, which I will not repeat, and I burst into tears,” she recalled.

Terry fl ew home from Ontario and was im-mediately admitted to RCH, where Ince now held the position of deputy director of nurs-ing.

Caught off -guard by the intense public inter-est Terry’s arrival gar-nered, Ince was asked to handle public relations surrounding his care.

“Th at evening, I had to call the radio stations and request that listen-ers not call the hospital about his condition,” Ince said, noting that callers were tying up the hospital’s main switch-board and emergency lines.

What followed in the weeks and months af-ter Terry’s return was fl urry of press confer-ences, daily health bul-letins, bags upon bags of mail from around the world and never-ending phone calls from people concerned about Terry and wanting to help.

Ince fi elded many of the phone calls, and re-called one from a little boy who wanted to con-tribute, but only had one dollar in his piggy bank.

“He had thought of a way he could help – he was going to sell their

house,” Ince laughed. “I strongly suggested to him that he consult with his parents on that.”

As Terry’s condition began to worsen in the spring of 1981, Ince said she was forced to come to terms with the fact that he was going to die.

“God sure got an ear-ful from me on that one,” she said.

True to form, Terry continued to live each day to the fullest extent that he was capable, Ince said, noting that all was not “doom and gloom” and there were many moments of hap-piness and laughter.

Dawn was just be-ginning to break on the morning of June 28 when Terry passed away, one month shy of his 23rd birthday.

guish, there was love and an incredible feeling of peace,” Ince said.

Since the Marathon of Hope 35 years ago, close to $700 million has been raised for cancer research in Terry’s name.

His contribution to cancer patients, survivors and their families, however, goes far beyond money, Ince – herself a breast cancer survivor – said.

“He brought cancer front and centre in our so-ciety, at a time when it was still talked about in hushed tones, behind closed doors,” she said.

In the years since Terry’s death, Ince has volun-teered at several Terry Fox Runs in Surrey.

She also spends time speaking at local schools, sharing Terry’s story, and is inspired by the impact he has on those who were born decades aft er he passed away. His legacy, she said, has become an in-tegral part of Canada’s heritage.

“He taught us the awesome power of one,” she said. “How each of us, as individuals, can and do make a diff erence.”

By Jeff NagelFederal parties are racing to

pledge support for rapid transit, particularly in seat-rich Surrey, where the city council continues to push its plan for light rail lines.

Liberal leader Justin Trudeau said last Th ursday the Surrey lines, Vancouver’s Broadway sub-way and more SeaBus service would likely get federal contribu-tions from an extra $20 billion his party is pledging for public transit over 10 years.

Prime Minister Stephen Harp-er had been expected to unveil Conservative commitments for transit a week earlier at a cam-paign event in Surrey, alongside former mayor turned Tory candi-date Dianne Watts, until the an-nouncement was bumped by the Syrian refugee crisis.

But support for transit from Ottawa has never been a big question mark for Metro Van-couver mayors.

Th ey’ve assumed one-third federal contributions for the rapid transit projects will come regardless of which party wins.

Unless a federal leader off ers more than one third – and none has so far – the big roadblock to new transit lines will remain this

summer’s referendum defeat by Metro voters of a small sales tax hike to cover the region’s one-third share of transit expansion.

Surrey is still aiming to ad-vance its $2.1-billion light rail project as a P3. But it has yet to produce a business case. And it remains unclear how the city’s

taxpayers would eventually repay costs fi nanced by a private part-ner.

Nor is there any sign of a new deal afoot between the mayors and the province to deliver an additional TransLink tax source and get the new lines get built as part of a coordinated regional transit plan.

Th e campaign promises stack-ing up for the Vancouver and Surrey lines are likely to remain

vague, leaving many questions unanswered aft er Oct. 19.

One is whether the Surrey project will defi nitely be ground-level light rail instead of elevated SkyTrain.

SkyTrain, at least down Fraser Highway, would allow a faster, seamless ride without transfer to the rest of the system for pas-sengers boarding in Langley and Cloverdale.

It would be more costly up front, however, and is resisted by Surrey politicians who say light rail better connects residents to local destinations.

Also unclear is the timing of federal grants – could that delay or help accelerate construction?

Th en there’s the question of where federal grants might actu-ally fl ow. To TransLink, possibly conditional on a broader region-al transit solution? Or to Surrey and Vancouver to cover just their Plan B schemes?

Th e devil will be in the details.For now, upbeat transit fund-

ing promises off er no surprises and no breakthrough to the im-passe left by the failed referen-dum.

Lyles sets recordJamel Lyles is off to an impressive start with the

Manitoba Bisons. Th e Surreyite was named the Ca-nadian Interuniveristy Sport (CIS) Off ensive Player of the Week on Sept. 9 following a 34-28 victory over the Saskatchewan Huskies.

Five days later, the running back was the Canada West Special Teams Player of the Week aft er a 44-38 loss to the Calgary Dinos.

Lyles began the season by rushing for 155 yards and one touchdown, adding another 89 yards in punt returns. Rhe Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary graduate returned the opening kickoff 107 yards for a touchdown. It set a University of Manitoba record for the longest kickoff return, and is the third-lon-gest in Canada West history. Lyles totaled 314 all-purpose yards in the game, with 232 yards coming kick or punt returns. His 563 all-purpose yards on the season leads the CIS. – Black Press

Tweet to a curator

What’s the oldest object in the Surrey Museum’s collections? What’s it like to be a curator? How are exhi-bitions created?

Bring your burning questions to the Twit-

terverse and get an-swers today (Wednes-day, Sept. 16) – Ask A Curator Day.

Th e global, Twitter-based event began in 2010 as a way to connect curators in museums and galler-ies across the world directly with museum fans and visitors.

Th is year’s event includes 868 museums

in 47 countries taking part, from the Lou-vre in Paris to the Dr. Pepper Museum (who

knew?) in Waco, Texas – history museums and planetariums to art gal-leries and living history sites.

Tweet questions to museum experts dur-ing the 24-hour event, using the #AskACura-tor hashtag and the museum’s Twitter handle. Ask questions

of a specifi c museum or gallery or the curator community in general.

Th e Surrey Museum’s Twitter handle is @ASurreyMuseum.

Here is a list of all the participating museums: www.mardixon.com/wordpress/askacurator-who-to-ask

Conference on adoption

Th e Forget Me Not Family Society presents its 10th annual fall workshop featuring keynote speaker Ann Fessler, Oct. 24-25.

It’s open to anyone who has been touched

by adoption, the soci-ety’s board says. It takes place at the Executive Airport Plaza Hotel and Conference Centre in Richmond.

Fessler is the author of Th e Girls Th at Went Away and the fi lmmak-er of A Girl Like Her. She’s spent 25 years on the subject of adoption and revealing the hid-den stories of mothers who lost children to adoption in the 1950s to the early 1970s, when an unprecedented number of babies were surrendered due to the social pressures of the times.

For more infor-mation, visit www.adoptioncircles.net or contact Marni Tetz, [email protected] or 604-862-4432.
