SURREYComing up on thehundredth anniversary of the First WorldWar this Remembrance Day, images ofpoppies, Canadian maple leaves andsaluting soldiers will adorn Surreys publicplaces. Tales of valour, honour and duty willbe remembered.But theres another side of the story that

hasnt been told, until now.Duty, Honour & Izzat, a new exhibition

put together by Surrey resident StevenPurewal, details the story of 500,000Punjabi combatants who fought alongsideCanadians in the First WorldWar.Purewal, a British-born Indian, has been

collecting primary artifacts fromWWIpertaining to the involvement of Punjabis,such as war medallions and propaganda art.He said that the Sikh side of the story hasbeen grossly underrepresented and even thepublic school system completely bypassesthat aspect of its history.The deficit isnt just at the common

laymans level, its even in academia,Purewal told theNow at the Central CityLibrary, where the Duty, Honour & Izzatexhibition currently resides.And even within professional historians,

they have not picked up on this becausethey have no reason to. The only peoplewho have a reason to tell this story arethe people from that community, and wehavent done it ourselves, he said.Purewal is, of course, referring to the

unrecognized Sikh soldiers who foughtin the First WorldWar that were omittedfrom the history books in several famousbattles; namely, Flanders Fields, Vimy Ridgeand both battles of Ypres. And thats just toname a few.

Were not saying, Why havent youtold our story? because we havent told itourselves, Purewal said. Thats the point ofthis project, is really telling the story so wedont have that occur again.While hes been sitting on this

information for quite some time, collectingartifacts and sources, Purewal said itbecame more pertinent than ever to puttogether the exhibition now that thecentenary of WWI which happened from1914 to 1918 has approached.I spent the whole summer doing this,

he confirmed. I thought, If we dont do itthis Remembrance Day, I think we havent

done justice to these people. It has to bedone now.One of those injustices, Purewal points to,

is an incident with Surreys Newton Legionthat turned away Sikh veterans wearingturbans during a Nov. 11 ceremony.Another is the foreword in a popular

childrens book widely used in localschools In Flanders Fields - The Story ofthe poem by John McCrae, which laudsthe involvement of Canadian, Australianand New Zealand troops inWWI.Theres no mention of Indian troops,which outnumbered the Canadians andAustralians combined.

If you read these things, you wouldntknow that thousands of (Punjabis) hadalready fought in those grounds, (nor that)they were even there in the war, he said.These (books) are null and void after

this. Theyre inaccurate, and they do a lot ofharm because it translates to a perceptionin the mainstream that You guys dontcarry your weight, you dont participate inRemembrance Day... Its a huge omissionthat needs to be corrected.The omitted information fromWWI is

what also links many South Asians to theFraser Valley.The reason that there are so many Sikhs

in the Lower Mainland is because of ourmilitary heritage. For 150 years, being a Sikhwas synonymous with being a soldier webasically came out here at Queen Victoriasbehest, Purewal said. We were full-fledgedBritish subjects.As part of Duty, Honour & Izzat, Purewal

and SFU are teaming up to bring an ex-British military officer for a public lectureat SFU Surrey on Nov. 10. As well, 10Surrey schoolteachers have signed up for aworkshop with Purewal to add the untoldbit of history to their curriculum.We havent done our forebears justice by

not having told the story already, thats howI see it and thats why Im compelled to tellthe story, he said. We have a joint heritage,a joint history (with Canadians). By notrecognizing it, it undermines our ability tohave a better common future.Duty, Honour & Izzat: The Call to

Flanders FieldsWW1 Centennial Exhibition,put together with the help of SurreysSimon Fraser University and somegovernment funding, is on display at CityCentre Library until Nov. 2, and will moveto the Surrey Archives from Nov. 4 to 15.

SURREYTens ofthousands of cats areroaming the streets, parksand neighbourhoods ofSurrey, and some pet ownersare at fault.The Surrey Community

Cat Coalition was formedearlier this month, in timefor Feral Cat Day (Oct.16), with the plan to getahold of what they call theoverpopulation of cats inthe city.It is estimated that

Surrey has between 12,000and 34,000 free-roamingcommunity and feral cats.RodneyWeleschuk, the

BC SPCA Surrey branchmanager, said one waythe coalition aims atmaintaining the number ofcats in Surrey is by catch-and-releasing communityand feral cats.During the catch phase,

the SPCA will get thecats neutered or spayedto prevent them fromreproducing as well asaddressing any health issuesthey may have.One way we wish

to address the feral catoverpopulation issues is toprovide them with the bestcare we can,Weleschuk said.The coalition

composed of SurreyAnimal Resource Centre,BC SPCA Surrey Education& Adoption Centre,VOKRA, SemiahmooAnimal League Inc., Katies

Place and Paws for HopeAnimal Foundationwasinfluenced by a similargroup back east, the TorontoFeral Cat Project, and isthe first of its kind in theprovince.KimMarosevich, the citys

bylaw business operationsmanager, said before thecoalition formed, separateentities were trying to tacklethis problem.The Vancouver Orphan

Kitten Rescue Association(VOKRA) has been rescuingcats since 2008 and noticedthat their intake of Surreycats increased 15 per centfrom 2012 to 2013.Now that several

stakeholders have cometogether, Marosevich isoptimistic they will be ableto control the population ofcats in Surrey.The problem is not new.

The situation is not new,but I think our approachcollectively is new and Ithink thats the really key

part, she said.BothWeleschuk and

Marosevich say the problemgets worse when pet ownersallow cats that haventbeen neutered or spayedto go outside. Those catshave litters with othercommunity or wild cats.They are contributing to

the overall overpopulationof cats by producingunwanted litters. Most ofthe unwanted litters are thecats who end up unsterilizedin the wild,Weleschuk said.Sometimes people dont

recognize that behavioursthat are problematic topeople in cats are oftentriggered by their sexualstatus. Theyre sexuallyreproductive behaviours,(like) yowling (and) scentmarking, said Marosevich.She said these habits go

away once the cat has beenneutered or spayed.For more information

The Editor,In your Thursday, Oct. 9 edition,

a letter by Colin Fletcher caught myattention (Rail relocation: Stop the talk,just do it,Now letters).What he says as an objective is ideal,

but not at all practical. The movingcosts alone of relocation would probablybe in the excess of $1.5 billion to $2.5billion. Then, factoring in the additionaloperating costs, even over a long periodof 50 years, would be at least an equalamount.The shareholders of BNSF would

not entertain such a cost. The currentoperators of the this existing right-of-way now pay an annual levy thatis substantial to the local governmentcoffers.Lets be practical.Too many have bought into the

idea that government can afford to do

anything. Thus the cry for governmentto provide good, quality housing for thedisadvantaged and others, mothers wisha larger indemnity for raising children,workers want more paid holidays, and sothe list goes on better transportation,smaller classroom complements, instantemergency response to any request forassistance. Governments only have themoney the taxpayer provides. Currently,western British Columbia is already avery expensive place to live.Some 45 years ago, while engaged

as the industrial development officerfor the then-Municipality of Surrey, Ihad contact with the BNSF regardingpossibly relocating the existing line to alocation where it could tie into the then-proposed track west from Fort Langleyto Roberts Bank super port. I attendedtheir offices in St. Paul,Minnesota, andI learned the realities of rerouting. The

purchase of a right-of-way alone wouldbe quite large. The original line alongthe west coast was relocated because thegrade north to Cloverdale, and then toPort Kells, was simply too difficult to bepractical. The waterfront route mademuch better sense.At the time I met with BNSF officials,

the corporation had no reason toundertake such a task and would onlyconsider it if someone else paid for itentirely, and possibly provided a financialinducement on a continuing basis.Naturally, no government at any level wasprepared to pay any amount of money,alone or in concert with another body.Maybe it is time to provide for stiffer

fines for persons who do trespass onthese tracks. That might induce at leastsome from becoming a right-of-waystatistic.

The vile spectre of the Montreal Massacrerose again last week as an unknown would-be terrorist threatened a mass murder offeminists in Utah.The threats were against Anita Sarkeesian, a

Toronto-born cultural critic who was planning tospeak at Utah State University. She had to withdrawafter local police couldnt guarantee her safety, dueto local concealed-weapon carry laws.The pathetic goon who caused all this actually

signed his letter with the name of Marc Lepine, themass murderer who killed 14 women at a MontrealUniversity in 1989.What did Sarkeesian do to so enrage some

anonymous halfwit?She critiques video games.Sarkeesian has been the target of an endless flow

of rape and death threats because of her articlesand online videos pointing out that in many games,women exist only as damsels in distress, scantily-clad background decoration, or simply to be killedoff and avenged by the male characters.The cretins behind these campaigns against

Sarkeesian and others have recently rallied behindthe label GamerGate, claiming that they arestanding up for, of all things, integrity in gamereviewing and journalism.In practice, typing #GamerGate into Twitter

will summon a legion of misogynist trolls out ofthe ether. The GamerGate troops have managedto harass several women, including Sarkeesian,and game developers into leaving their homes.Addresses and names of family were publicized,along with graphic threats to kill them.If all this sounds incredibly juvenile sad man-

children afraid of icky girls thats because it is. Butits also something that virtually every woman whowrites online about games, comics, sci-fi, sports oralmost any other allegedly male sphere of culturehas to deal with.This isnt a problem with games, its a problem

with society. Those of us who oppose this vilebehaviour are in the majority, and we should standup together to oppose the trolls and support theirtargets.

Rail relocation: Some historical perspective

Tom ZillichEditor (interim)


DEBATE

The two candidates running to replaceJim Sinclair as president of the B.C.Federation of Labour says a lot aboutthe state of organized labour these days.Both candidates are former longtime

public sector union activists. Amber Hockinwas a CUPE staff member, while IreneLanzinger is a former president of the B.C.Teachers Federation.The fact they are both from the public

side of labour, rather than the private sector,is a crucial distinction.Organized labours relevancy and

influence has waned considerably in theprivate sector. Just 16 per cent of the privatesector workforce in Canada is a member ofa union; this compares to more than 70 percent of public sector workers.Its notable that, as of this writing,

only public sector unions had endorsedeither candidate. I assume that eventuallysome private sector unions will back theircandidacies, but clearly getting the backingof the more powerful public sector unions ismore important.To the best of my knowledge, the B.C.

Federation of Labour has never beenled by someone from a public sectorunion (Sinclair was from the old UnitedFishermans Union, while his predecessor,Ken Georgetti, was from the UnitedSteelworkers and, before him, presidents ArtKube, Jim Kinnaird and Len Guy were allprivate sector union activists).

As a result, will a schism form withinthe Fed itself, one that pits the interestsand priorities of public sector workersagainst those in the private sector? Iveheard grumbling from private sector labouractivists who feel Sinclair was pushed asideby public sector union interests.And will either Hockin or Lanzinger

continue to work as Sinclair and BuildingTrades Council president Tom Sigurdsondid with Premier Christy Clark in a quasi-partnership to boost skills training efforts toget more people into the trades to work onnatural resource projects? Or will they fallback into a more antagonistic relationshipwith the government?Whichever one of them wins, however,

will mark a turning point in the history oforganized labour in the province. Its glorydays when it could literally shut downthe economy of B.C. are clearly over, as ithas largely become a government worker-dominated organization.

BENNETTCLEARS THEAIRONHIS SITE CDAM STANCEIt hasnt made a final decision on whether

or not to give the Site C dam the green light,but there is an emerging impression thatany enthusiasm the B.C. Liberal governmentmay have for the project is perhaps slowlywaning.Thats the impression I got after receiving

an out-of-the-blue phone call last weekfrom Energy Minister Bill Bennett, a guyyou can usually count on to display strongsupport for anything that puts shovels in theground and creates jobs.Bennett phoned to dispute my earlier

on-air characterization of him as being thechief cheerleader for Site C. Not so, Bennett

told me. In fact, he said he was genuinelytorn about whether the project should bebuilt, and recounted to me the validity of allthe opposing views hes heard along the way.More telling, perhaps, was his disclosure

to me that the government caucus wassplit on whether the dam should be built.Earlier that day, he

acknowledged to themedia that the projectlacked any supportfrom First Nations,and he told me hedidnt expect that tochange any time soon.A lack of First

Nations support(indeed, there isinstead considerable opposition to theproject from that constituency) is just oneof the factors stacking up against Site C.Bennett admitted to me that Site Cs

estimated price tag of $8 billion wouldadd hugely to the provinces debt load, andthat was a concern. He also admitted other,smaller energy projects may just as easilyanswer the need of the provinces futureenergy demands.In summary, he listed a lot more reasons

why the dam shouldnt be built than whyit should. And remember, Bennett isntthe kind of politician who spins thingsand sticks to a government message box.He can be counted on for bluntly tellingyou what he really thinks and, for now atleast, he doesnt seem to be on the Site Cbandwagon.

The Editor,Almost 30 years ago, our family settled

in Surrey. Yes, we heard all of the Surreyjokes, but in the last nine years, weveheard them a lot less since DianneWatts,Linda Hepner and Surrey First came onthe scene.Equally important to us is the fact

that our kids grew up playing on someof the best fields and rinks in the LowerMainland and, now, they can actuallyafford to live in their hometown,something thats not possible inVancouver.From our familys perspective, our city

is heading in the right direction, and onNov. 15 we have a unique opportunity infront of us.Imagine what could be accomplished

in Surrey with Linda Hepner as mayor,DianneWatts as a Surrey MP and ourfive government MLAs (including threecabinet ministers) all working togetherfor our city. It would be a political trifecta,something that doesnt happen that often,here or anywhere else.With that kind of teamwork, leadership

and people who can clearly worktogether, theres not much Surrey couldntaccomplish at here at home, in Ottawa orin Victoria. Thats good news for majorprojects like light-rail transit and otherinfrastructure projects that rely on thecity, province and feds to work together.You dont have to be a gambler to see

what this political trifecta could mean toour city and its future. Now, all we have todo is pick the right horse on Nov. 15.

The Editor,According to the RCMP, Surrey

(and other parts of B.C.) are said toneed more police officers on the job.Meanwhile, there are, at any one time,between 100 and 150 police in overseastraining jobs also, on their website,according to the RCMP. These aregood jobs with tax-free bonuses, livingand travel expenses and career boosts.However, the Mounties have a

contract with the people of B.C. toprovide services, and since theseofficers are trained, experienced andon the payroll, why not bring themback here, now? Canada first.

Vern Huffman

Pay parking nearhospitals isnt fairThe Editor,I have one question to all the

candidates who are running forcouncil and the mayors position:Where do you stand on the burningissue of very expensive parking in and

around Surrey hospitals?When someone gets sick in the

family, it is not a very pleasantsituation to begin with, but it is likeadding insult to injury when one hasto pay a very high parking rate in andaround the Surrey hospitals.All possible free parking on the

streets around the hospitals has beeneliminated, including Surrey MemorialHospital and Jim Pattison OutpatientCare and Surgery Centre. Patients andtheir families have no option but toget ripped off at the pay-parking lots,which are getting pricier and pricierevery coming year.Near Delta Hospital, for example,

not only is the parking free on the

streets around the hospital, but thehospital parking lot is free as well.This is a calculated and deliberate

attempt to pick the pocket of patientsand their families at the worst time:when someone is sick and has nooption but to surrender to this robberyin the name of pay parking.Such schemes are made in back

rooms by bureaucrats who are notdirectly answerable to the public.There should be some compassion topatients; they do not get sick by choiceand when they get sick, they have nochoice but to go to the hospital. Theyshould not be forced to pay a furthertax in the name of pay parking.

Kalwant Singh Sahota, Delta

CLOVERDALEThe CanadianFood Inspection Agency (CFIA)found a foreign pest that posesa threat to B.C.s ecology andeconomy in the Cloverdale area ofSurrey.The province considers the

European gypsy moth, also knownas Lymantria dispar, to be a threatto B.C.s ecology and economy.TheMinistry of Forests, Lands

and Natural Resource Operationsis partnering with the CFIA toeradicate the pest before it becomesestablished in the city.The insect attacks both natural

forests and urban trees, and in 1999resulted in the U.S. threateningto refuse shipments of trees andplants from B.C.s nurseries withoutadditional inspection certificates.The ministry says the presence

of the moths poses a quarantinethreat and potential traderestrictions for products likeChristmas trees, logs with bark,nursery plants, and challenges fortransportation (trucks may needagricultural inspections).The moths were found in

Surrey in 2013 through the CFIAsprogram, which places pheromonetraps in populated areas of theprovince on a one-mile gridpattern.That summer, three traps in the

Cloverdale area were found to beholding one moth.This past summer, hundreds

of traps were placed fromSullivan Station to the CloverdaleFairgrounds, and from southFleetwood to the agriculturallowlands.

A total of 197 male moths werecaught.Following that, ground searches

found the moths egg masses, eachof which can contain hundredsof eggs.Most of the masses werefound on street trees growing onthe boulevards andmedians of64 Avenue, between 168 and 176streets.Tim Ebata, a forest health officer

with the MFLNRO, said the sizeof the moths population found inSurrey is unusually high.Weve been knowing that there

was something brewing in thatarea because weve had single-moth catches over several years butnever had enough information topinpoint where the epicentre was,he said.Ebata said the moth feeds on

more than 300 different shrub andtree species,many which are highlyvaluable fruit and ornamental trees.He added that the gypsy mothscould severely impact the Garryoak ecosystem and other vegetationsystems throughout southernVancouver Island, the Gulf Islands,Sunshine Coast, Lower Mainlandand B.C.s southern interior valleys.He noted the moths being located

in Surrey is particularly concerningbecause its close to many majortrade routes.Western North America is

considered gypsy moth free,Ebata explained, which is why theprovince is aggressive in eradicatingany that are found.Our U.S. partners will be very

interested in seeing how we performin dealing with this, he added.Previous provincial cases have

been dealt with by trapping,followed by spraying with thepesticide Bt K, which is exempt

from the citys pesticide bylaws.A City of Surrey memo says the

current eradication plan for Surreycalls for more extensive groundsearching in the winter when theleaves are off the trees, to detect anderadicate egg masses, followed byaerial spraying of approximately12,000 acres in the spring of 2015.Ebata says the ministry will be

publicly announcing its plans at alater time, possibly when they are

set to appear before Surrey councilnext month.Owen Croy, Surreys manager of

parks, is confident the ministry andthe CFIA will eradicate the invasivespecies and said the city is on boardto help however it can.He didnt recall the moth being

reported in the city previously, andconfirmed its the first time in atleast two decades.The pest is often introduced

when people move from infestedareas around the country or in theU.S., he said.Almost always its people

moving into an area, because itsthe egg masses that get transported its rarely larvae or the moth, heexplained. Egg masses can be laidon things like a tent trailer ifsomeone is camping in a woodedarea where the gypsy moth ispresent, they may not even knowabout it That following spring inApril, when temperatures becausesuitably warm, eggs would beginto hatch.Croy said staff have received

training on how to identify the eggmasses, and the city is co-operatingwith federal and provincial officialsin quarantining prunedmaterials.As well as anticipated effects

on the provinces ecology andeconomy, an established infestationof the moth could have impacts onresidents, as the defoliation wouldkill many trees, leading to a needfor increased pesticide use. The finehairs shed by the caterpillars alsocause dermatitis in many people.This species of moth was first

introduced from Europe intoMassachusetts in the U.S. in 1869in an attempt to breed it with silkworms. The moths escaped, and by1889 had become a significant pestin the area, reportedly completelystripping trees of leaves, caterpillarscovering houses and sidewalks, andlarvae and their feces raining downupon passersby.By 1912, the moth had entered

Canada, and was first discovered inB.C. in 1978.For more information on the

provinces eradication program visitFor.gov.bc.ca/hfp/gypsymoth/.

SURREYOne of the candidatesseeking the citys top job wants to banelection signs in the City of Surrey.And not just for municipal

candidates for those seeking higherlevels of office as well.We could do it for all (levels of

government), said Coun. BarinderRasode, who split from Surrey Firstearlier this year and is now running formayor with her One Surrey team.She said her motivation comes from

concerns about the environment,

distracted driving, as well as creatinga level playing field for all candidates,noting the high cost of electionsignage.It eliminates

independents, she stressed.What we would do is

change the digital signbylaw so that during thecampaign people couldpurchase equal space onthe digital sign, Rasodeadded.She went on to say she has no

concerns about lawn signs on personalproperty during a campaign.When asked why she has signs if

shes compelled to ban them, themayoral candidate said she wascompelled by circumstances.

If I had not done them itwouldnt have been fair to me.So it needs to be on a moveforward basis. It has tobe about a level playingfield, she added.In the 2011 civic

election, Surrey First which Rasode was a member

of at the time - spent morethan $662,000 on its campaign. Of

that, $46,312.41 was spent on signs,pamphlets and brochures.

SURREYWhile manywere spending time withfamily over the ThanksgivingDay long weekend,others were out in Surreyvandalizing newly erectedelection signs.By Oct. 13, images of

vandalized Surrey First,One Surrey and Safe SurreyCoalition election signs weremaking the rounds on socialmedia, with South Asiancandidates being specificallytargeted on each.On Barinder Rasodes One

Surrey signs, her face wascovered in black spray paintwhile DougMcCallums SafeSurreys signs had the namesand images of candidatesRina Gill and Justin Thindsprayed over in black.

While Surrey First signsonly feature Linda Hepnerspicture, Coun. TomGillsname was still sprayed overin black.Rasode said she knew

of around 15 of her signsthat were vandalized asof Monday afternoonand would be working toreplace them soon with hervolunteers.I think its unfortunate,

we have some real issuesat hand, we always havecomplaints from businessesaround vandalism andgraffiti and sometimes itis targeted this way, shesaid, noting it also broughtout the good in others.Overall, I think what it didprompt were a lot of callsfrom people who spoke outagainst it. There are more inthe community that take thattone than the other tone.

Over at Surrey First,Hepner said they too hadabout 15 signs vandalized,primarily along King GeorgeBoulevard.Its despicable. It does

not speak to the Surrey Iknow and it flies in the faceof everything we do aroundinclusivity and diversityand celebration and all ofthe events, and the kind ofcommunity were building,said Hepner. Politics isnot a pretty game, in anymeasure, but that is justbeyond anything anyonewould ever consider. Idont think its politicallymotivated because it attacksevery single one. I think itscompletely race-motivatedand thats an ugly thing.It isnt our community,

it isnt what we know. Lookat our Fusion Festival andhow we embrace each others

cultures. Its so not us.McCallum likewise said

he, too, was disappointedwith the apparent targetedacts, with most of his alsoappearing in Newton.I think its disgraceful that

some idiots are vandalizingthe signs. I would encourageeveryone to leave them allalone, its a method to berecognized in a democraticelection and theres no placefor this type of vandalism,he said.As for Halloween this

year, which falls on a Friday,McCallum said everyone willjust have to be mindful oftheir signs the day after.Ive been in four

SURREY The Surrey RCMP hasarrested someone else in connectionwith the Aug. 27 kidnapping andsexual assault of a nine-year-old girlin Whalley after realizing theyd gotthe wrong guy when they arrestedDonovan Christopher Adams with thecrime.As more evidence was unearthed,

it became apparent that Mr. Adamshad confessed to a crime he did notcommit, said Supt. Trent Rolfe, SurreyRCMPs investigative services officer.Adams, 23, of no fixed address, was

arrested on Sept. 2 and charged withkidnapping, sexual assault, sexualinterference, breaking and entering andcommitting an indecent act. But onOct. 10, Surrey RCMP asked the Crownto drop all charges against him and hewas released from custody.Rolfe said Adams had been arrested

in part based on comments Mr.Adams made that directly implicatedhim in this assault.

But in the weeks that followed, Rolfesaid, the RCMP did an independentanalysis of the accuseds statement,which is standard practice, but wasparticularly important given Mr.Adams vulnerability.Despite Mr. Adams comments

implicating himself, the physicalevidence did not confirm this andactually led (the) investigationin another direction, Rolfe said.As a result of our analysis and incombination with the new physicalevidence, the Surrey RCMP could nolonger maintain the belief that Mr.Adams was responsible for this offenceand on Oct. 10, requested Crowncounsel enter a stay of proceedings.On Thanksgiving Monday, the

Surrey RCMPs special victims unitarrested 28-year-old Chilliwackresident Cory Schaumleffel. He hasbeen charged with kidnapping, sexualassault, sexual interference, committingan indecent act and break-and-enterwith intent. Schaumleffel appeared inSurrey provincial court onWednesday.During a press conference in

September, police said the victim, who

cannot be identified, was lured outof her open ground-floor bedroomwindow in Cedar Hills, taken to anearby park, molested and left in anearby yard. She then ran home andtold her mom.Were grateful she was able to flee to

safety, Rolfe said at the time.I can say this young girl was very

brave. She helped us catch this man.Considering the circumstances,

Rolfe told reporters, she is doingremarkably well.Adams and the victim didnt know

each other, Rolfe noted, in September.He didnt know her. He had the

opportunity.Its a very unusual case, he said.Rolfe said Adams was arrested in the

SURREYTrustees and parents ofthe provinces largest school district arecalling on the provincial government tostep up their funding commitments toeducation.As part of the provinces annual

consultation period through its SelectStanding Committee on Finance andGovernment Services, residents andorganizations are able to send thegovernment feedback prior to thewriting of the 2015-16 budget.In a release, the Surrey Board of

Education says the underfunding ofeducation is leading to direct cuts toservices that support childrens learningand that the governments commitmentto fiscal discipline cannot come at theexpense of childrens futures.Board chair ShawnWilson said

there are currently 6,000 students in280 portables and that number hasincreased 41 per cent from 2003 to2014, costing an estimated $4.2 millionper year.Wilson noted that if adequatefunding were in place, the districtcould have hired 50 more teachers with

the same funds.These teaching positions could be of

extraordinary help in dealing with classsize and composition, he said.Other risings expenses left to the

district include energy costs andemployee benefits, both of whichthe board say are not covered in theprovinces funding increases.If boards of education are to be

successful in their goals, they must beable to rely on adequate and sustainablefunding,Wilson said.We know thatan investment now will ensure a brightfuture for our children.Bob Holmes, on leave from the Surrey

District Parent Advisory Council whilehe runs for trustee, also submitted aletter to the province expressing similarconcern.While Surreys rapid growth

should work in the districts favour whenit comes to funding, Holmes says theslowmovement of funds instead worksto the detriment of the district.Since we are looking at four to five

years from a funding announcement tokids being in a school, the recent newsthat the province has asked districtsnot to submit capital funding plansthis year is nothing short of appalling,he wrote. Its not fair to our parentsto put them in a position wherethey feel like they need to constantlyraise funds to ensure their childrensclassrooms have everything they need.But most importantly, its not fair toour children, and all the children ofthis province, to give them less and lesssupport every year.

NORTHDELTA Families in NorthDelta will soon be able to take advantage of acomprehensive early learning program for pre-school children.Located at the North Delta Recreation Centre

currently under extensive renovations theReach Child and Youth Development Society willhost the DeltaKids BC Early Years Centre (EYC)to improve the access and availability of servicesand supports for families with young children.The site is one of a dozen new centres

province-wide to receive $52,000 from theMinistry of Children and Family Developmentas part of a three-year $5.5 million investment.The project is in partnership with Reach, theCorporation of Delta, the Delta School District,Fraser Health and the Delta Kids Committee,which includes organizations supportingchildren throughout Delta.Surrey-Cloverdale MLA Stephanie Cadieux,

who is also minister of children and familydevelopment, said the site will be a one-stoplocationwhere families can connect withcommunity, and easily access information andsupport around parenting and early childhood

development. Reach has special supports in placefor children with developmental or physicaldisabilities.When youve got a child and youre a new

parent, thats stressful enough, she said. Thatschallenging enough to learn about whatsavailable to you, what you should be doing, howyou handle different situations. But if you have achild with disability, its that much more stressfuland difficult.Delta North MLA Scott Hamilton, who was

a member of Delta Council until March of2014, said the project is part of a provincialcommitment to make life easier for families andensure young children get the support they needto reach their full potential. He said its locationin North Delta has been cited as an area wherethe largest number of children aged zero to fivereside.Its a neighbourhood thats under-serviced

with programs for families with young childrenand a neighbourhood where childhoodvulnerability, which is measured at kindergarten,are the highest in Delta. So, were in the rightplace.Mayor Lois Jackson said the centre was due in

large part to Renie DAquila, executive director forReach, who has been trying to create somethinglike the EYC in North Delta for decades.

Jackson said one of Deltas goals in the reccentre expansion was to amalgamate existingprograms and services that were already onsite, including Reach, theWatershed ArtworksGallery, and Delta Potters Guild. The rec centreexpansion will include a 6,000 square foot fitnesscentre, a gymnasium, expanded North Deltamunicipal business centre, and art and recreationspaces.The EYC is scheduled to move into the

renovated space by June of 2015, where they willoffer new drop-in programs and developmentalscreenings for families, along with literacyprograms for young children. Parent workshopswill also be organized, and families will beintroduced to other community resourcesincluding the George Mackie Library and theFamily Resource Programs.The DeltaKids centre is a pilot project in

partnership with the BC Early Years Strategy toimplement a network of EYCs throughout B.C.in the coming years.

SURREYA local craft brewery isexpanding into new territory in EasternCanada, as Red Racer beer attempts to takeonMaritimes microbreweries that have beenin operation since the early 19th century.Surrey-based Central City Brewing began

its expansion two and a half years agowith a foray into Ontarios crowded craftbeer market. Tim Barnes, vice-presidentof marketing and sales, is quick to admit itwasnt an easy sell.Ontarios not an easy market to break

into. Its tough for any out-of-provincebrand, he said. So, unless youre Ontariocraft beer you are up against a challenge. But,you know, were doing it, and were sellingquite a bit of beer there now.Barnes said despite the competition, the

U.S. is considerably harder to carve outground in than any Canadian market. TheirRed Racer brand is sold as Red Betty in 17U.S. states to varying degrees of success.But Eastern Canada is where the company

is focusing now, with expansion into NewBrunswick, Nova Scotia and even Quebecthis year with their Bettys Iced Tea.Up until now Central City has been using

third party sales agents, but on Tuesday (Oct.14) the company hired James Hume as newdirector of sales for Eastern Canada.With multiple years of inventory, supply

chain, category management and logisticsmanagement expertise, Humes extensive

knowledge of the beer industry stems fromhis successful career with the Liquor ControlBoard of Ontario (LCBO).He started thereas an inventory replenishment manager forthe beer and cider division, and was mostrecently the companys product manager forbeer.James brings intimate knowledge of the

LCBO and the craft beer market in EasternCanada which will no doubt ensure that wegain a bigger presence in Ontario, as wellas other Eastern Canada provinces, saidBarnes.Hume has also worked for a number of

consumer product companies includingMaple Leaf Sports and Entertainment,Nike Canada andMcGraw-Hill RyersonPublishing and Distribution. He was mostrecently the Eastern Canada sales andmarketing manager for Horizon Beers.Although Central City has an aggressive

expansion strategy, Barnes says theres ahuge difference between craft breweries andmacro breweries like Molson or Miller.He said some craft breweries in the

U.S. like Samuel Adams brews millionsof hectolitres (HL) of beer each year. Thelexicon of brewing has changed based on theproduction capacity of start-ups taking onthe challenge of competing for the taste budsof beer lovers.There are nano-breweries, micro-

breweries and regional craft breweries;Central City, with a current productionlimit of 50,000 HL, aspires to reach the latterdesignation.

SURREYTsawwassens largestowner of real estatewill be moving itsheadquarters to SurreyCity Centre in Januaryin order to takecompetitive advantageof the citys proximityto public transit.Century Group

president Sean Hodgins said the companyhad planned to move into the 3 Civic Plaza,but due to several delays the 52-storey towerwill not be complete until December 2016.The company recently secured a deal tomove into Central City, which is a few blocksaway from where the tower will be located.Hodgins said he thought about

moving to Surrey five years ago when thecompany realized that attracting talentto the organization was difficult becauseTsawwassen is relatively isolated frommajor

transportation networks.If you find the right person and they

happen to live in Burnaby and they showup for the interview at eight oclock in themorning battling through traffic, you knowyou almost lose them before you even havethe interview, he said.It soon became apparent that for the

company to be attractive they would havebe more conveniently located next to publictransit. Hodgins said thats especially true forhis younger employees.I do think its going to be the defining

thing in real estate in the 21st century, is theaccess to transit. If we believe that, then wehave to live it, said Hodgins, adding SurreyCentral SkyTrain station is only a 40-minuteride to VancouversWaterfront Station.Century Group has several high-profile

buildings and proposed developments inthe Lower Mainland andVancouver Island,including Northgate, Oliva, Heron Cove andSouthlands in Tsawwassen, The Ridge andGulfview in Nanaimo, Ormidale Block inVancouver, OceanWalk in Richmond, andHolland Pointe and Citypoint in Surrey.
