A plan to build a truck parking lot beside a fi sh-rich river has raised the ire of an environmental group dedicated to watching over the waterway.
Surrey is planning to pave the way for industrial development in the South Campbell Heights area as part of a Local Area Plan (LAP) endorsed by council on Monday. Th e green space is 245 hectares (600 acres) – just over half the size of Vancouver’s Stanley Park.
It is home to a second-growth forest about 100 years old, an abundance of wildlife, and the Little Campbell River, which is a spawning area for spring, coho and chum salmon.
Th e plans are located just south of Campbell Heights Park, which also abuts the Little Campbell River, a project the David Suzuki Foundation called one of the worst ex-amples in the province of salmon habitat destruction from development.
On Monday, when the preparation of an LAP for the area south of 16 Avenue near 192 Street was endorsed by coun-cil, Coun. Tom Gill surprised many when he asked that an old gravel pit be turned into a truck parking facility.
He wants that done prior to the completion of the LAP.It’s unusual to push development ahead of local plans for the area, but Gill
told Th e Leader Tuesday this is a special circumstance.

One man is in hospital after Surrey’s third shooting in three days.
All the shootings happened around dinner time in or around Newton, and involved people shooting at cars from moving vehicles.
At just after 6 p.m. Tuesday, Surrey RCMP were called by B.C. Ambulance, which had received a call for a gunshot
victim in the 7600-block of 124 Street.The victim is a 22-year-old man who is
known to police. He was taken to hospi-tal with serious, but not life-threatening injuries.
“The investigation is in its infancy and it’s too early to make any connections to other Lower Mainland shootings,”said Surrey RCMP Cpl. Scotty Schumann. “We can say that the incident appears to be targeted given just two vehicles were involved.”
Police also cordoned off Strawber-ry Hill Elementary School and the 7500-block of 123A Street in order to collect and search for evidence after a bullet hit the school.
Strawberry Hill Elementary was open as usual Wednesday.
Doug Strachan, communications man-ager for the Surrey School District, said
staff have been briefed to be aware of students who seem to exhibit signs they are stressed about the shooting.
He also said a letter would be sent home to parents, explaining what hap-pened and that it’s not connected to the school in any way other than the prox-imity. Parents are also being advised to let the school know if their child seems affected by the incident.
The violence comes after two similar shootings in Newton over the last few days.
At just after 5 p.m., Monday, Sept. 15, Surrey RCMP received several calls about a white Jeep chasing a black Cor-vette in the area of 132 Street and 89 Avenue.
Witnesses say three or four shots were fired from the Jeep at the Corvette. No arrests have been made as of yet.
The day prior to that, at about 6:35 p.m., Surrey RCMP received several reports of gunfire in the 6800-block of 128 Street.
Police then received a call from a man who said he was driving on 128 Street at about 68 Avenue when another vehi-cle pulled up and started shooting. He drove a short distance and reported it. The victim is providing limited informa-tion.
Police do not believe it was a random act, but could not say whether it is related to a string of shootings earlier this year between two rival drug-dealing groups.
Anyone with more information is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers, if they wish to remain anonymous, at 1-800-222-TIPS or www.solvecrime.ca

Th e trial for four RCMP offi cers facing charges for alleged misconduct during the Surrey Six murder investi-gation has been postponed again.
Derek Brassington, Paul Johnston, Dave Attew and Danny Michaud were charged with several counts each in 2011, including obstruction of justice, fraud, and compromising the safety of a witness, after an investigation by the Ontario Provincial Police alleged serious misconduct by the offi cers during the investigation of the 2007 gangland murder of six men in Surrey.
Th eir trial was to begin Monday (Sept. 14) in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver, but was adjourned until September 2016. Th e delay marks the most recent of many in the trial, which was initially scheduled to begin in 2013.
Brassington, Johnston and Attew are no longer with the RCMP, while Michaud is suspended.
Six men – four with connections to the drug trade and two innocent bystanders – were shot execu-tion-style in Surrey’s Balmoral Apartment building on Oct. 19, 2007. Two Red Scorpions gang members were convicted of fi rst-de-gree murder last year, another pleaded guilty the year prior, and a fourth admitted his involvement in 2009.
Another man, Sophon Sek, is charged with manslaughter but has yet to be tried. And Jamie Bacon, co-founder of the Red Scorpions, is charged with conspiracy to commit murder and one count of fi rst-de-gree murder. His trial has also faced delays and is now scheduled for October 2016.

In partnership with Surrey Hospital and Outpatient Centre Foundation
Ashok Philip Abraham was born April 4,
1979 in Kuwait and was 28 years young
when cancer claimed his life on Nov. 23,
2007. According to his family and friends, Ashok
had much to offer in life. Everyone he met always
found something to learn from him. Although cancer
claimed his vivacious life at such a young age, his
tender heart, charm and sense of humour keeps his
memory alive in the hearts of all who knew him.
In dedication to such a caring soul, the Ashok
Memorial Foundation was created and focused on
helping fi nd a cure for cancer through research and
awareness. They are motivated by the loss of a son,
a husband, a brother and a friend. They are hopeful
their efforts can help protect other families from
going through a loss like theirs.
Ashok Memorial Foundation is governed by a
committee motivated by the same drive to make
sure that patients who go through treatment at
Surrey Memorial Hospital in pediatric oncology
have the best environment and the best equipment
provided. Beyond the committee, they have a
dedicated group of more than 250 volunteers.
The Ashok Memorial Foundation has supported the
Surrey Hospital & Outpatient Centre Foundation
since 2012. In the fi rst year, with the proceeds of their
annual Soccer Tournament, they helped purchase
a pediatric glidescope. This machine provides a
constant and clear real-time view of a patient’s
airway as the medical team intubates and places a
tube to assist a young patient in breathing.
The physiotherapy and rehabilitation team received
a virtual rehabilitation system in 2013. This is a Wii,
but is used with a variety of exercise and therapy
options designed to improve eye-hand coordination
exercises and balance exercises. It is able to recreate
the patient’s movements and captures results that
documents their progress and improvements.
The funds from the 2014 tournament will go towards
revitalizing the intensive therapy room in the child
and health care centre. Currently, it’s nicknamed the
“dizzy room” and the funds will improve its décor
and functionality and make it a more pleasant room
for treatment.
This year’s funds raised will go towards buying and
installing sky ceilings above beds in the pediatric
oncology unit. During a pediatric oncology stay at
the hospital, some recipients of chemotherapy have
the drugs introduced to their system through their
spine, once received, the kids must lay fl at on their
backs for an hour or more. These sky ceilings will
provide an alternative distraction from the pain,
anxiety and tedium of staring at the ceiling and
bring a more positive and soothing environment to
children undergoing cancer treatment.
“Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confi dence.”
“Hope is our Cause” ... It is the core for why we strive. AMF was conceived to fondly remember a caring soul. But was quickly empowered by community support to stand for change, growth and a cure for those affected by Cancer.“
-– Asha Kochukalikkal
“It is wonderful to see a community turn their grief into
compassionate outreach to other children and families
experiencing the diffi culties of cancer care. They are
providing hope to thousands annually.”
Jane Adams – President, Surrey Hospital and Outpatient Centre Foundation
Ashok Memorial Foundation is in
loving memory of a son, a husband,
a brother and a friend, Ashok Philip
Abraham. He was 28 when cancer
claimed him on November 23rd 2007.

“Need,” Gill said when asked about the hurry. “Th ere is a need for truck parking throughout the city.”
Th ere are currently 1,300 big rigs parking illegally in Surrey, which impact residential areas and farmlands, he noted.
Th e truck park would allow truckers to wash their rigs, change oil and tires, and would include washroom facilities.
Gill said he would insist on the highest environmental stan-dards so there would be no impact on the Little Campbell River.
But Phillip Milligan, president of the Little Campbell Watershed Society, is outraged at the plan.
“We have a lot of concerns about that,” Milligan said. “How do they keep the effl uent, all the chemicals, all the break fl uids, the antifreeze – how to they keep all of the oils out of the river?”
He said that section of the Little Campbell River is an important salmon spawning area, home to spring, coho and chum salmon, as well as steelhead and cutthroat trout.
“Th e Little Campbell, believe it or not, is one of the most productive steelhead rivers in the Lower Mainland,” Milli-gan said.
Because it’s a relatively small river, any pollut-ants entering the water could be devastating for the fi sh population.
A truck parking facility on that site could be catastrophic, he said.
“Th at’s the last thing that you want right
beside the river,” Mil-ligan said, adding he’s bothered by the speed at which Gill is advancing the idea.
“I don’t know why Gill is pushing this right now,” Milligan said Wednesday. “We have this LAP program that everything has to go in order. Why would one council member be
pushing to put forward a development like this?”
Surrey has struggled with a truck parking shortage for years. Gill has taken up the cause, pushing for more opportunities for truck drivers to legally park closer to home.
He insists there will be catch basins for oil
and other measures to help prevent a spill in the Little Campbell River.
Staff will review the plan before it comes back to council.
Eventually the de-velopment plan would have to undergo a public hearing, where residents would have their say on it.

New Liberal candidate in South Surrey
BLACK PRESS
Veteran local politician Judy Higginbotham has been confi rmed as Liberal Party of Canada candidate for South Surrey-White Rock in the Oct.
19 federal election, replacing Joy Davies, who resigned last week.
A member of Surrey city council for 25 years, Higgin-botham served on more than 40 committees, and received many accolades, including Business Woman of the Year and the Solicitor General’s Crime Preven-tion Award.
Also a past provincial candi-date, she bowed out of municipal politics for runs at federal offi ce in 1988, 2004 and 2008, but
returned for a run as an inde-pendent candidate for Surrey councillor in 2011.
Higginbotham was unani-mously endorsed by the South Surrey-White Rock Liberal Elec-toral District Association.
Davies resigned following controversy over pro-marijua-na views she expressed in past Facebook posts.

I 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.
With great restraint, I resisted sticking in my oar. Th is wasn’t a conversation among my own friends 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.
Alan Kurdi died, along with his mother and brother, during his family’s desperate attempt to fl ee their war-torn homeland.
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 living in neighbouring countries. In Syria alone, more than 12 million people are in need of water, food and shelter.
If it takes the image of small child’s body washed up on a beach to start a meaningful conversation about what is happening to real, fl esh-and-blood human beings, then, as sad as that truth
is, the photo needs to be published and it needs to be shared.
In journalism ethics classics, we’re taught to weigh what people are okay with seeing in the morning paper over their bowl of cereal against the news value that any given photo carries. Often, it’s a question of degrees of gruesome-ness.
Th e photo of Alan isn’t gruesome – far from it. He could well be sleeping. But we know he isn’t sleeping.
Th e photo has been compared to another famous shot – that of Vietnam-ese girl Kim Phuc, whose clothes were burned off by napalm. Th at horrifying image was crucial in putting an end to an unpopular war.
Earlier this month in Surrey, Alan’s story managed to knock the prime minister off message – during what is arguably the most tightly scripted cam-paign in recent history – to talk about Canada’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 happening to demand that change.
Or, we can all just go back to our breakfast.

Yes 14% No 86%
It’s been a topsy-turvy week for the federal Liberals in South Sur-rey-White Rock, with candidate Joy Davies resigning Sept. 10 after controversial remarks she made about marijuana use.
Davies has been replaced by longtime Liberal and for-mer Surrey councillor Judy Higginbotham. South Surrey resident Higginbotham has been soldiering for the Liberals, both federal and provincial, since 1983, when she fi rst ran with the provincial Liberals in what was then the two-member riding of Surrey-White Rock. She left the provincial Liberals to run with the doomed Social Credit party in the 1991 provincial election in Surrey-Cloverdale, but has been a loyal Liberal since that time.
She has run provincially fi ve times and federally three times, in 1988, 2004 and 2008. In 2004, she got almost 37 per cent of the votes, and was just over 3,000 votes behind winning Tory candidate Russ Hiebert.
Davies was a curious choice as the candidate in South Sur-rey-White Rock Some observers had been suggesting the Liberals had a chance to win the seat, which has been held consistently by the Progressive Conserva-tives, Reform, Canadian Alliance and Conservatives since it was fi rst split off from the larger Surrey riding almost 30 years ago. Notably, threehundredeight.com, a website which looks at all polls in aggregate, and CBC’s poll
tracker, were suggesting early in the campaign that the Liberals could win the seat.
Th reehundredeight.com does note its “riding projections are not polls and are not necessarily an accurate refl ection of current voting intentions in each riding.” On Tuesday, its website showed the Conservatives in the ascen-dancy over the Liberals in South Surrey-White Rock.
Davies has elected experience, as a councillor in both Tumbler Ridge and Grand Forks. How-ever, she is almost unknown in South Surrey and White Rock. Her most prominent position in recent years was as a founder and former government relations director of the Canadian Medical (Th erapeutic) Cannabis Partners Society.
Th is led to her social media comments, suggesting that pregnant women could safely use marijuana and that the Canadian Cancer Society was “another outlet for big pharma.”
Th e Liberals have called for marijuana being legalized. However, the party’s pro-mari-juana stance is a minimal factor in South Surrey-White Rock, an affl uent riding which has never been a hotbed of pro-pot sentiment.
Higginbotham is a known quantity in the riding. She has made controversial comments during her years as a Surrey
councillor, as most councillors who serve for any length of time do. She has been active in the community, has a strong interest in heritage and the arts, and her name is well-known.
If the Liberals did have a shot at winning this riding against former Surrey mayor Dianne Watts, who is running for the Conservatives, it would have made sense to have a bet-ter-known candidate right from the beginning.
On another subject, I will moderate an all-candidates’ fo-rum in the riding on Sept. 29 at Crescent United Church. It runs from 7-9 p.m.
I’m looking forward to hearing from the candidates, although as of last week, Watts’ campaign offi ce said she would not attend.
Given that she is one of the most capable and sure-footed politicians on the Surrey scene over the past decade, that’s sur-prising. Conservative candidates in some ridings are avoiding such meetings. It is up to voters to draw their own conclusions as to why Watts won’t attend this one.
Th e exact words in the cam-paign’s email to the organizers were, “Unfortunately, due to pri-or commitments and scheduling issues, Ms. Watts will not be able to participate in your forum.”

TransLink is under fi re from the Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation (CTF) for a 21-per-cent jump in what it calls the transportation authority’s “six-fi gure club” of staff earning more than $100,000 a year.
Th e CTF said it combed through TransLink’s latest fi nancial disclosures and found 524 em-ployees with six-fi gure earnings, up from 434 in 2013.
“It’s a pretty hefty one-year jump,” said CTF B.C. director Jordan Bateman, who led the “no” campaign that defeated the regional plebiscite on a proposed sales tax hike to fund a major transit expansion.
“Th is comes at a time when they were de-manding a tax increase and crying poor and all these horrible things are happening in TransLink operations because they don’t have enough money.”
But TransLink spokesperson Col-leen Brennan accused Bateman of “cherry picking” the numbers by focusing solely on the increase in staff that crossed the $100,000 threshold.
Th e 524 six-fi gure earners represent less than 10 per cent of TransLink’s total of 6,700 employees.
Overtime costs to call in front-line employees during incidents like major SkyTrain malfunc-tions and storms were the primary reason more staff collected $100,000 or more last year, Brennan said.
“Any time there’s a service disruption we have to bring in extra resources, put on buses and call in extra people to get them to work,” Brennan said.
Staff pay increases negotiated with unions were another factor lifting salaries.
But she insisted those have been mod-est, senior executive salaries have been frozen and the use of overtime was largely unavoidable.
“If you look at the total salary costs all across TransLink, it’s up around 3.9 per cent overall,” Brennan said. “We are watching every dollar very, very carefully.”
Th e disclosures show 57 of the $100,000-plus earners are Tran-sit Police offi cers.
Th e CTF has repeat-edly denounced the force as too expensive and called for it to be scrapped.
Bateman said TransLink continues to miss opportunities to contain costs, adding it could have held the line with unions in contract talks.

Metro Vancouver has returned to Stage 2 water restrictions – allowing once-a-week lawn sprinkling and car washing once again – af-ter recent heavy rains
helped refi ll the regional district’s reservoirs.
And Metro utilities committee chair Dar-rell Mussatto said the region may soon return to the routine, minimal water conservation measures of summer.
“If we don’t get any more hot, dry weather we could go back to Stage 1 in a week or two,” he said.
Th e regional district’s
latest measurement of its water supply re-leased last Wednesday showed it held steady at 60 per cent capacity and is now in the mid-dle of the normal range for this time of year.
Stage 3 restrictions were imposed July 20, banning all lawn sprinkling with Metro water as well as pres-sure washing and the refi lling of pools and
water features.At Stage 2, those uses
can resume, but pres-sure washing is only permitted for health and safety, not aesthet-ic purposes, and car washing is to be done only with automatic shutoff hose nozzles.
Early morning lawn sprinkling can re-sume on Mondays for even-numbered homes and Th ursdays for odd addresses.
Stage 3 limits suc-ceeded in keeping daily water use capped at a target of 1.2 billion litres per day, a level Metro calculated could be sustained until No-vember with no rains if necessary.
Mussatto credited the extraordinary conservation eff orts of residents.
“We had extreme stress on our reservoirs this year,” he said, noting the record low snowpack and months of hot, dry weather earlier in the spring and summer.
“Our residents and our reservoirs did extremely well. Th ey responded to the regu-lations and they made adjustments.”

Get an insider’s view of standardbred horse racing this Saturday (Sept. 19), when the Backstretch at Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino plays host to the annual kickoff to the fall racing season.
With an $11-million overhaul and rebrand-ing of the former Cloverdale Raceway as
Elements Casino set to launch this winter, those on the racing side of the equation are eager to showcase their sport to fans and newcomers alike.
Visitors of all ages can watch horse-shoe-ing demonstrations, 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 supports hundreds of direct and spin-off jobs in Surrey and across B.C., said Carla Robin, a veteran horsewoman who took the reins in March as executive director of Harness Racing B.C., the association hosting the open house.
“I think the horse racing in Cloverdale is the best kept secret in Surrey,” Robin said.
Th e parking lot is full on race nights, but Robin is surprised by how many people don’t realize there is live horse racing or that horses live in the barns year-round.
“Th ey know there’s a casino, but they don’t know there’s a race-track within it,” added Sandra Roberts, an owner and trainer who lives in Cloverdale.
Both women note there’s a lot riding on the new season, getting underway Oct. 1 after a fi ve-month hiatus.
Horse racing is sub-ject to the B.C. Horse Racing Industry Man-agement Committee, made up of stakehold-ers from each sector – the Public Gaming and Enforcement Branch and B.C. Lottery Corp., the horse racing associ-ations and the oper-ator, Great Canadian Gaming.
In February 2014, a deal was inked guar-anteeing live racing 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.
Th e deal also extends the funding arrange-ment; racing receives a proportional revenue from slot machines.
“We need people to come out to support the racing,” Robin said. “Learn about it and get more involved, and have fun wagering.”
Th e horsemen want to reinstate a 10-month season.
“I believe we can make a comeback,” Robin said. “We have to have the racetrack go back to full oper-ations. 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 community of Cloverdale, too.
Robin says the racetrack supports 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 busi-ness community here,” she said. “Th is summer, there were no horse-men and their families picking up food in downtown Cloverdale. But when the racing is on, those people have more income.”
Both women say a shorter season hurts the industry’s ability to attract new blood – young people and women. And they note more than a handful of current drivers got their start as teens, working their way up from mucking out stables.
Backstretch Day runs from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sept. 19.

The conclusion of this year’s US Open tennis tournament held in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park at the USTA
Billie Jean King National Tennis Center has coincided with publication in Canadian newspapers of the New York Times obituary for Irving Harper. Mr. Harper died, aged 99, on August 4th at his home in Rye, New York.Th e connection? In 1963, Irving Harper was the director of design at George Nelson Associates, the fi rm hired to design the Chrysler Pavilion for the 1964 World’s Fair in Queens, New York —the sight that today houses—amongst other facilities including Shea Stadium—Flushing Meadows-Corona Park. Th e Chrysler Pavilion, the smallest of the ‘Big Th ree’ car company pavilions at the 1964/65 fair has nevertheless managed to hold its own in the history books for its creative celebration of the automobile and its clever marketing and educational messaging. Called ‘autofare’, the six-acre pavilion consisted of a 10,000 foot long, 300 foot wide oval-shaped water-fi lled lagoon containing fi ve islands connected by bridges and causeways.On Engineering Island visitors could walk through “the biggest engine in the world,” a giant “one-million horsepower” engine with a “writhing, twisting, squirming crankshaft dragon driving three eight-foot pistons.” Giant hands operated the engine valves. Imagination Island was dominated by “Th e world’s biggest automobile! Nearly 80 feet long and 50 feet wide!” With huge wheels nearly two stories high, the underside of
this giant car sat eight feet off the ground allowing visitors to view from below “all the working elements of an actual car.”On Production Island visitors were transported by car along a simulated automobile production line passing “an area of mechanical workmen and giant quality control gauges.” Production Island also contained a “fantastic auto-animal zoo”: a 12-foot mantis, a 10-foot porcupine, a 7-foot frog and others guarded by a 22-foot zookeeper, all made entirely of car parts.On Operations Island 10 ‘showmen’ statues in an enclosed, semi-circular stage each told a story about “a special facet of Chrysler activities—Space, Missiles, Defense, Amplex, Airtemp, Parts, Chemical, Marine, Industrial Products and International.”Th e fi fth island contained ‘Show-Go-Round’, four separate auditoriums blended into one huge structure, the white roof of which formed a huge ‘Pentastar’, “the symbol of Chrysler Corporation activities all over the world.” Each of the four separate audiences could simultaneously watch a diff erent part of the four-phased performance mounted on a 70-foot revolving stage concluding with the unveiling of a completely-assembled puppet-built “experimental car” designed by a young genius auto designer featured in the fi lm portion of the performance.Interviewed about the Chrysler Pavilion project in 2014, Mr. Harper recalled he considered taking up knitting or any activity that would “take his mind off the stress—something repetitive and soothing he could do at home in the evening.” And thus were born Mr. Harper’s small ‘jaw-dropping’ sculptures made from common materials—paper, balsawood, toothpicks etc. —works of art that decorated his home and are now on display in the book, Irving Harper: Works in Paper by Michael Maharam and Irving Harper, 2013: Skira, Rizzoli.

Prime Minister Ste-phen Harper sought to shore up Conservative support among older voters by promising a new tax break for single and widowed se-niors if his government is re-elected.
Th e $2,000 tax credit would translate into up to $300 a year in reduced income tax for nearly 1.6 million sin-gle seniors who have private pension income beyond CPP and OAP.
Eligible seniors could combine it with the ex-isting $2,000 pension income tax credit for a combined benefi t of up to $600 a year.
“It is an aff ordable commitment,” Harper said Tuesday in North Vancouver, noting it will be phased in over four years at an eventual annual cost of nearly $400 million. “It helps the seniors who need it most.”
Both the NDP and Liberals have promised to increase the Guaran-teed Income Supple-ment for lower income seniors.
Th e Liberals say their proposed immediate 10 per cent hike to GIS payments would add up to an extra $920 a year for a low-income senior.
The Conservatives have sought to por-tray Liberal and NDP promises as unafford-able and therefore unreliable.
Th e Liberals and NDP have also pledged to scrap the Conserva-tives’ 2012 decision to make many future seniors wait an extra two years until age 67 before becoming eligible for OAP and GIS. Th at change is to be phased in starting in 2023.
Both Opposition parties aim to expand CPP, drawing crit-icism from Harper that their approaches amount to hefty pay-roll tax hikes.
Th e NDP and Liberals both would unwind another Harper gov-ernment change they say benefi ts only the wealthy – the increased $10,000 contribution limit for Tax Free Sav-ings Accounts.
But both parties say they would preserve income splitting for seniors.
Earlier in the week, NDP leader Tom Mul-cair pledged to bolster health care transfers to the provinces with an extra $1.8 billion.

A leaked Conser-vative letter to B.C. business leaders is urging them to pull out the stops to fi ght a
potential NDP federal election victory that it warns would devastate the province’s econo-my.
“Th is election will be decided in B.C.,” said the letter from Indus-try Minister James Moore and former Conservative cabinet minister Stockwell Day.
“We could end up with an NDP national government,” they said, predicting the result will be “higher taxes and a broken
economy.”Although neither
is a candidate in this election, the two Tories said they will take their message on the road and urged business leaders to work with them to convince voters to re-elect the Harper government and reject the “dan-gerous policies” of the NDP.
Th e letter also takes aim at Liberal leader Justin Trudeau’s plan to cancel LNG tax
incentives.But it mainly targets
the provincial NDP’s record governing in the 1990s, saying it direct-ly led to B.C. becoming a “have-not” province
with 50,000 residents forced to leave to fi nd work elsewhere.
“Now is not the time for risky experiments.”
It echoes the B.C. Liberals’ economy-fi rst attacks against “risky” Adrian Dix that helped persuade voters to reject the NDP in the 2013 provincial elec-tion, despite an early polling lead for the New Democrats.
Philip Hochstein, president of the Inde-pendent Contractors and Businesses Asso-ciation of B.C., said he hopes the message resonates with voters.
“I think the federal Conservatives are right to remind British Columbians about the lost decade of an NDP government,” he said, adding business leaders could be infl uential.
“We have a history under the NDP, we know what it was like,” Hochstein said. “Th ere was, in essence, a strike on capital – peo-ple stopped investing in British Columbia.”
He said the latest polls showing the Con-servatives are running third place in a tight three-way race do not concern him.
“Th e election will be won or lost on the economy and people will make the right decision.”
SFU political science instructor Cara Cam-castle said the tactic of dredging up the NDP’s record in Victoria may prove less eff ective this time because feder-al NDP leader Tom Mulcair has promised balanced budgets and, unlike Dix, has careful-ly avoided taking a pre-mature stand against proposed pipelines.
“Th e Conservatives are trying to put fear into those who are considering change,” she said. “But after 10 years in power, there will be some Conser-vative supporters who feel they’ve had their chance.”
Canadian Taxpayers Federation spokesman Jordan Bateman said he’s not surprised by the letter.
“In politics, you al-ways go back to what’s worked,” Bateman said, but added the strategy is getting long in the tooth.
“Th e NDP did some outrageous things in the 90s. But I’m not sure how that’s a complete predictor of future behaviour. It’s almost 20 years ago now.”

You’ve decided you want to sell your home, now what? When it comes to the next steps, it’s im-portant not to cut corners and risk accidentally overlooking any of the fi ner details. Besides saving time and energy, there are many benefi ts to hiring a licensed real estate agent to help with the process.
It’s important to have someone in your corner who is able to make sense of the back-and-forth busi-ness of negotiations, including fi nances, counteroff ers and clos-ing, as well as dealing with any unforeseen challenges. Th en there is the emotional aspect of selling. Maybe your kids grew up in the house, it’s your fi rst house with your partner or your parents passed it down – whatever the case, separating the heart from the head for the sake of the sale can be tough without outside perspective.
Michael Trites, managing broker and sales associate at Royal LePage Northstar Realty adds that some of the main reasons to employ a licensed REALTOR® are to expose the property to as many potential buyers as possible in order to obtain the best price for the seller and to ensure a legally binding contract is completed by all parties.
“Th e end result should be a ‘win’
for all parties that is both fair and equitable,” he says.
Trites adds there can be over a hundred separate steps a REAL-TOR® may take throughout the process of selling a home, such as extensive pre-listing gathering of information, which would include
verifying property zon-ing, the existence of any non-fi nancial charges on title which could af-fect value, and viewing the property to confi rm its size and condition.
“Th e next step would be the preparation of an accurate Compara-tive Market Analysis which will include similar properties that
are currently for sale (this is the competition), properties recently sold (this is factual information) and possibly expired listings, which failed to sell possibly due to asking price, condition of the property or market changes,” he says. “Th is is also the time for the REALTOR® to explain current market condi-tions, and the presentation of their marketing proposal, which could also include suggestions to improve the saleability of the home.”
As the client, it’s important to clearly communicate your expectations and business plan in order to avoid any future misun-derstandings.
As for payment, the commission payable upon the completion of the sale will be indicated on the listing contract or fee agreement, which
will be arranged between the par-ties based on the level of services off ered by the REALTOR®.
Trites says there are a variety of
business models available to the consumer to suit their particular situation.
When a sale is nearing comple-tion, there are important details the REALTOR® will execute, including forwarding copies of the contract to the legal representative of their client. REALTORS® can provide a checklist of all items that need to get done prior to moving day, as well as tend to any ques-tions and concerns.
“Regular follow up should en-sure an orderly transition on com-pletion,” says Trites. “Th e transfer-ring of keys is usually completed by the REALTORS® involved, and it’s prudent to change the locks and access codes once possession of the new property occurs.”
Buying or selling a home is a tedious process made simpler by enlisting the help of a licensed REALTOR®. Much like any agree-ment, both parties should come together fully prepared with infor-mation and questions. It’s perfectly acceptable to speak to a few diff er-ent agents before deciding on one.
While a thorough review of the REALTORS® marketing proposal should answer most client ques-tions, below are some basics to keep in mind before choosing your agent.
Hiring a real estate agent: what buyers need to know
TIPS FOR BUYING
Top 5 questions to ask:
B How will buyers view my home? Will you be present
or will another REALTOR® be present?
C Can you provide personal references from previous
transactions?
D At what point do I need to contact a notary public or
lawyer regarding my sale?
E How do I know you will perform all the services that
you have indicated?
F Why should I hire you?

With the possibilities of biotechnology today, the idea of humans with tails and other prosthetic possibilities is not as farfetched as what it once was.
On Oct. 1, Surrey artist Claire Moore will host an evening of tales and tails that draw on her four-year investigation into the ram-ifi cations of body augmen-tation.
In her talk “Th e Body and Biotech-nology: Th e Corporeal, the Surreal, and One Idea Run Amok,” which is part of the ongoing Th ursday Artist Talk series at the Surrey Art Gallery, she will discuss the diver-gent thought process and ideas behind her multimedia work that includes large wire drawings and small
tiles of etched x-ray fi lm.
Moore has a BFA from the University of Cape Town and has been a practicing artist for 35 years. She off -sets studio time with teaching, involvement in Community Art
Projects, art-ist-run spaces and outdoor adventures.
Moore also teaches art classes at the Surrey Art Gallery.
While much of her work is in private collections, more can be seen at www.
clairemoore.caTh ere will be time for
questions and con-versation during and following the Surrey talk. Th e event is from 7:30-9 p.m.
Th e art gallery is lo-cated at 13750 88 Ave. Phone 604-501-5566 for further informa-tion.

Th e seventh annual Peoples Drug Mart Walk for ALS is set to hit the trails of Bear Creek Park this weekend.
Th e event – now in its seventh year – is a fi ve-ki-lometre walk that begins Saturday at 11:30 a.m., though registration and other activities begin an hour earlier. Th e event will be MC’d by Global News meteorologist Mark Madryga.
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neuromuscular disease that aff ects the person’s motor neurons which carry messages to the mus-cles. When these muscles fail to receive messages, they lose strength, atrophy and die, leaving the person immobilized.
Proceeds from Saturday’s event go to the ALS Society of BC to help fund research and provide support for those living with ALS.
To register for the walk, visit www.walkforals.ca

RICK KUPCHUK
After the fi rst week of play, the Kwantlen Polytechnic University (KPU) Eagles men’s soc-cer team is at the front of the pack.
Th e Eagles split two games last weekend at Newton Athletic Park, defeating the Douglas College Royals 3-1 Sat-urday before falling 1-0 to the Langara Falcons Sunday afternoon.
Th eir 2-1-0 (won-lost-tied) record has them tied for top spot with the Royals, one point ahead of the Vancouver Island University (VIU) Mariners of Nanaimo.
“Early success this season has come as a product of the program doing things right, and the team playing as a unit and for each other,”
said KPU head coach Srdjan Djekanovic. “We are looking forward to a very successful season.”
Th e Eagles hold top spot due to their win Saturday over Douglas. Nawaf Binsaleh netted a pair of goals with Mateo Serka netting the other.
“It was a great overall team performance as the team worked hard and stuck to the game plan,” said Djekanovic.
Th e Eagles will play their fi rst road game of the season Saturday, kicking off against the Quest Kermodes in Squamish.
Th ey will then host the Mariners Sunday afternoon at 2:30 p.m. at Newton Athletic Park, a game the KPU squad is very much anticipating.
“Th e team has a saying and mindset that we play one game at a time,” said Djekanovic. “(But) we have the op-portunity to play last year’s national champi-ons (VIU) and see how
we measure up.” Th e KPU Eagles
women’s team fi nds itself in a tie for third place after three games, posting a 1-1-1 record. Th e Eagles lost 3-0 to the unbeaten Douglas College Royals Saturday, then earned their fi rst win of the season with a 1-0 victory over the Langara Falcons Sunday. Both games were at Newton Athletic Park.
“Th e most important thing is we don’t want to concede,” said KPU had coach Julie King. “If we do, it’s diffi cult to win. We made three mistakes (Saturday), and the team knows what they were.”
Chelsea Lal scored the winning goal Sunday on a penalty.

A year after Cloverdale football player J.T. Fernandez was found dead in the Okanagan, Cloverdale’s Grace Fernandez is still seeking information about what happened to her son.
J.T. – who was a 21-year-old linebacker with the Kelowna-based Okanagan Sun junior football team – died Sept. 18, 2014 of what au-thorities said at the time were “un-
known circumstances” while adding that details would “be released at the appropriate time.”
Now, 12 months later, Grace told Black Press she has still not seen a coroner’s report, police report or au-topsy results, and “no one will talk” to her about her son’s death.
Th ough she does not yet have the closure she seeks, Grace will host a celebration of life in her son’s hon-our, Sunday, Sept. 20, from 3-5 p.m. at the Pacifi c Inn (1160 King George Blvd.).
“He was well loved,” Grace said.

Th e Holy Cross Cru-saders began their B.C. High School Football preseason schedule in the Okanagan last week, defeating the Clarence
Fulton Maroons 36-0 Friday in Vernon.
Th e Crusaders, who will play in the Senior AA level Southern Conference when the regular season starts next month, led 29-0 at the half.
“I thought we had a solid start to the season. We played well for a fi rst game,” said Crusaders head coach Conrad Deugau. “We know we have lots of room to improve.”
Quarterback Patrick Shoemay threw a pair of touchdown passes to receiver Marcus Browne covering a total of 68 yards.
Linebacker Brendan Szabo returned two interceptions for 103 yards and another two major scores. Lineback-er Cole Barron led the team with nine tackles.
“We have players that can make big plays and we’re working hard to get better each week,” said Deugau. “Last week
was an opportunity for all our athletes to im-prove and gain valuable experience on the fi eld.”
Th e Crusaders will vis-it the Windsor Dukes in North Vancouver today (Friday).
Th e Frank Hurt Hor-nets, also a member of the Southern Confer-ence in the Senior AA category, played their fi rst exhibition game at home last Friday against the Pitt Meadows Ma-rauders, and lost 26-6.
Th e Hornets will be on the road today for a game with the South Kamloops Titans, their second of three presea-son games.
In Senior AAA foot-ball, the Lord Tweeds-muir Panthers were in the Fraser Valley where they fell 45-27 to the Abbotsford Panthers. Tweedsmuir will be away from home again tomorrow (Saturday), kicking off against the Mt. Douglas Rams in Victoria.

“J.T. was a wonderful person and a standout on the football fi eld,” Okanagan Sun president Paul Carson told Black Press last September. “Th is is a tragic day for our organization.”

Carla Qualtrough CANDIDATE FOR DELTA LIBERAL PARTY OF CANADA
Authorized by the offi cial agent for Carla Qualtrough
The 2011 federal election resulted in a major power shuffle in Ottawa – the incumbents increased their lead while others rose to prominence and relevance, and a once-dynastic party left in defeat, forced to rebuild.
Stephen Harper’s Conservative Party won its third consecutive federal election, this time increasing its seat count to 166 to grab a majority government. The NDP, under the late Jack Layton, surged into the official opposition’s chair with 103 seats – the largest total in the party’s history.
Meanwhile, the Liberal Party tumbled from 77 seats (in 2008) to just 34, and leader Michael Ignatieff left his post after the election. The Bloc Quebecois and Gilles Duceppe – who has returned to his position for 2015 – crashed from 49 seats won in 2008 to just four, losing its official party status.
And the Green Party won its first-ever seat in Ottawa, with party leader Elizabeth May taking her riding in Saanich–Gulf Islands.

THECANDIDATES
Thomas MulcairAge: 60 Leader, New Democratic Party
Mulcair was born in Ottawa in 1954 and raised in Quebec – in Hull and Laval – and graduated from Montreal’s McGill University in 1977. Mulcair was elected leader of the NDP in 2012, succeeding the late Jack Layton as the head of Canada’s Official Opposition. Mulcair has been the MP for Outremont (Quebec) since 2007.
Elizabeth MayAge: 61 Leader, Green Party of Canada
Elizabeth May is the leader of the Green Party and the MP for Saan-ich-Gulf Islands in B.C. May became just the party’s second-ever Member of Parliament, winning her riding in the 2011 federal elec-tion (even though she was not invited to that year’s national TV debates). She won the Green Party’s leadership in 2006, replacing Jim Harris.
Justin TrudeauAge:43 Leader, Liberal Party of Canada
Born in Ottawa while his father, Pierre Trudeau, was Prime Minister of Canada, Justin was raised in Montreal and is a graduate of both McGill University and UBC. Before entering politics, he worked as a French and math teacher in Vancouver. He won the riding of Papineau (Quebec) as a Liberal MP in 2008 – a position he still holds. He was named leader of the Liberal Party of Canada in 2013, succeeding Bob Rae.
Stephen Harper Age: 56 Prime Minister – Leader, Conservative Party of Canada
Stephen Harper has been the Prime Minister of Canada since 2006 and the leader of the Conservative Party since 2004. Born in Toron-to, Harper moved to Alberta after high school – first to Edmonton, then to study economics at the University of Calgary. He has been MP of Calgary Southwest since 2002, originally with the Canadian Alliance party, and became the Leader of the Opposition in that year’s election.
Gilles DuceppeAge: 67 Leader, Bloc Quebecois
The oldest leader of Canada’s major federal political parties, Du-ceppe is also the longest-serving leader of the five – he led the Bloc from 1997 to 2011, then re-assumed leadership this year, replacing Mario Beaulieu. Duceppe also served as MP for Laurier–Sainte Marie from 1990 to 2011. He has not yet announced which riding he’ll run for in 2015.
