Volunteer pastorleads the way aftercutting ties withnorth Carolina-based organization

See more photoS online,thenownewSpaper.com

SurreyChuck Pearce is abig dude. no, seriously, the guysthe size of a wall. or a Smart Car.hes got tats. he wears black

t-shirts and jean vests and shadesand bandanas like aGQmodelwears the trendiest hipster puffery.his greying goatee completes alook that can best be described asimposing.its an image Pearce comes by

honestly. hes no poser and hesno newcomer, and hes had his fairshare of bad times to go with thegood. that hes as passionate andsometimes downright opinionated about his calling in life issomehow not surprising.that calling took him to

motorcycles and a biker lifestyle ata young age and ultimately, eightyears ago while confined to a jailcell, to the church. Pearce says Godhelped him through a particularlyrough time. in return, Pearcevowed to serve him.that hes done, in seemingly

typical Pearce fashion. by 2010hed already become an ordainedminister. the same year, hefounded this regions first churchaimed primarily at his peers: theSurrey branch of north Carolina-based Freedom biker Church.outwardly, this was a heck of a

feel-good story headline: bikerturns life around, helps others

do same.but as the days turnedinto years and even as newspaperheadlines championed the entirething, Pearce and his leadershipstruggled. increasingly, they felt thechurch had lost its way.We were getting a fairly strong

contingent of people from therecovery world. People thatregularly attend nameetings, aameetings, street hustlers ... andthey were focusing very much on

their recovery, wanting to changethe church to more of a recoveryfocus. they were more interested ina fellowship group versus a church,and a lot of bikers stopped coming,saying we dont want to go to arecovery church.Worse still, funding for the

endeavour was drying up.We started this four years ago,

and after three years of beingunder the Freedom Churchbanner, the way they do things isto cut funding, and thats whathappened.as 2014 began, Pearce found

himself helming an organizationthat had not only lost its direction,but its money, too. For lesser men,

this could have spelled the end. butnot this guy.Soon enough, Pearce cut ties with

the Freedom biker Church and inMarch became a volunteer pastor an independent, if you will. hestarted a scrap metal business, too,directing spare proceeds to hisfreshly renamedministry, the Solidrock biker Church.God has provided to us through

the business. the church wouldntbe here without it.along with the newmoniker

came a refocusing.earlier this year, we made the

decision to tell recovery membersthat they were entirely welcometo stay, but were a church. ourfocus is bikers. today were nowfar more of a biker church thanweve ever been, and thats givenus greater acceptance in the biker

community.indeed, looking around the

church (the rented KennedyCommunity hall) the day beforethanksgiving, there was nodenying this was most definitely abiker crowd.not the crotch-rocketkids, either, but the hardcore typesthat, rightly or wrongly, strikenervousness into regular folk.Pearce has a plan for that, too.

and some of that plan was laidout before us on folding tables justoutside the main hall. it was food,and lots of it.Were trying to connect with

the general community. they lookat bikers and are intimidated. Sotoday weve launched a food driveto give back to the community.the plan hatched when Pearce

spoke with a congregation memberwhod lost his job and had beencompelled to turn to Surrey Foodbank. though he eventually foundanother job a better job hedtold Pearce the resource had beeninvaluable.So now, the congregation is asked

to bring non-perishable itemswhen they come to worship. thefood is packaged in boxes, the boxesdelivered to Surrey Food bank.and yet another new concept isintroduced.but as much as his church has

seen change, the core ideals remainunwavering, Pearce noted.other bikers look at our guys,

some of whom have reputations,and they say that if these guys canleave their old world behind and yettheyre still happy and theyre stillbikers,maybe i should look at it.Solid rock biker Church runs

every Sunday from 8 a.m. to 12:30p.m. at Kennedy Community hall,located at 8870 120 St., Surrey.ask for reverend Chuck.

Surrey looking back at late 2012and early 2013, the hot topic in Surrey wasa controversial casino and entertainmentcomplex planned for South Surrey.Proposed by Gateway Casinos, the $100-

million development would have beenlocated on a 25-acre property at 168th Streetand 10th avenue and featured a 190-roomhotel, a 60,000 square-foot gaming floor anda 27,000 square-foot convention centre. theproject would have also netted the City ofSurrey about $3 million annually in gamingrevenue, but after a massive public outcryover the proposal and a divisive publichearing session that totalled more than 13hours, it was narrowly defeated by councilin a late-night five-to-four vote.

While crime, safety and transportationcontinue to be key issues in the 2014civic election, the Now reached out to themayoral candidates to see what they woulddo if the South Surrey casino, or any othercasino application, came before them.independent Vikram bajwa was opposed

to the South Surrey casino application atits 168th Street and 10th avenue location,but said any other applications he receiveswould be put to a city-wide referendum.i would let the people decide, he noted.

this kind of issue needs to let all of theresidents make the decision.First-time independent candidate John

edwards said he was in favour of theSouth Surrey casino due to the economicfactor and would entertain other suchapplications.i was in favour of it because when i

looked at the plan, the number of jobs andthe economic activity, i thought it was avery good idea, he said, adding he wouldlook at any other applications with an openmind. i think you have to look at the biggerpicture and say we cant very well denypeople the right to go to a casino and

spend their money if thats whatthey want to do. We have a socialresponsibility as a city to not deny thefact that people want a casino, butwe need to make sure those peoplewho are problem gamblers have thesupport they need.Surrey Firsts mayoral

candidate linda hepnersaid she would not bevoting in favour of anymore casino proposals.hepner voted in favourof the proposed SouthSurrey casino back inJanuary 2013, which wasdefeated by a deciding votecast by Mayor dianne Watts.ive been there, ive done that and

i will not revisit a casino applicationin that location, she said. We have apowerful and functioning operationwith Fraser downs and i wouldconsider that Surreys location for acasino. im not doing that again.Former mayor doug McCallum,

leading the Safe Surrey Coalition,said he would be opposed to anyfuture casino or gaming applicationsbrought before council, stating hisopposition to gambling in the city.i wont support it, ive never

supported expanding the gamblingin Surrey, he said. i was very vocalagainst gambling, im not a supporterof gambling and would not supportit at all.likewise, one Surreys barinder

rasode said she would also notsupport any future expanded

gambling opportunitiesin Surrey. rasode alsoreiterated that she votedin favour of the SouthSurrey casino in orderto have Gatewaysgaming licence movedfrom the slot machineand bingo hall in

newton to South Surrey.i did not support the

expanding of the slot machinesin newton. i did not want a licenceto come to Surrey and then wehad the challenge of having thelicence in newton and my reasonfor supporting the South Surreyapplication was the South Surreyapplication actually met the citysgaming policy and i believed thatmoving the licence out of newtonwould be good as it was placed ina very vulnerable community, shesaid. We fought really hard in thecommunity to have that site shutdown.

long-time council watcher andindependent mayoral candidateGrant rice said he would definitelybe opposed to any casino or gamingapplications coming his way, andthat he was actually involved in thecommunity fight against the casinoback in 2012 and 2013.i was heavily involved in fighting

that casino even though i live in thenorth, he said. the social ills thatcome with gaming are my sore point.i would make sure we dont expandgaming at all and would revisit thegaming policy for the City of Surrey.First-time mayoral candidate

John Wolanksi said his focus hasalways been social issues and as such,would be against any more gamblingcoming to Surrey.i was at that (South Surrey casino)

meeting and was one of the ones thatspoke against it because of the effectsit would have on the community tohave another casino, he said. i knowa lot of people that it would cause joblosses. its really a saturation point,we have enough gambling and wedont need anymore. im not againstcasinos, im not against developmentbut we dont need anything else inSurrey to put vulnerable people intodire financial straits.

The Editor,re: a political trifecta for Surrey?,

Now letters, oct. 21.the idea that a Surrey First win in this

election creates a perfectly-synchronizedpolitical trifecta is flawed.Why should(future MP)Watts accomplish any less ifbarinder rasode were elected mayor? noofficial should be more or less motivatedby their political ties in working to makethis city a better place.Surrey First claims their candidates

worked hard as councillors but thetruth is, a lot of citizen advocacy hasbeen needed to keep Surrey on the righttrack. i had to fight tooth and nail toget a now-popular rapid-bus stop builtin Guildford. Citizens needed to showup by the hundreds to raise or overturn

issues like the South Surrey casino,rising crime rate and a questionableeconomic summit. under goodleadership, we wouldnt have to worryabout these things.We could live our livesproductively.but, the Surrey First slate and linda

hepner havent put forward productiveideas. anyone keeping track of hepnersshort-sighted thinking should noticeit in more than just the suggestion thatwe invest money needed by neglectedcommunities into a waterfrontcommunity with a ferris wheel.her light-rail proposal doesnt improve

travel times, has a poor business case andrestricts further transit improvements.her suggestion, in a recent interview,that encouraging population growth and

development can raise revenue towardincreased police numbers is ironic,because that growth is precisely why weneed more police.i remember a more exciting time,

before the last time we voted in 2011,when newton had a town centrerevitalization plan.any and all talk ofthat has since disappeared, and the resultsof that neglect are becoming clear.We could re-elect Surrey First, or we

could elect a mayor and council thatactually puts Surrey first, isnt out of touchwith its citizens and will outperform anyimaginarypolitical trifecta.

heres an idea whose time has come: howsabout no election signs?Some may argue that having no electionsigns favours incumbents whose names are alreadyknown. but on the other hand, it would also levelthe playing field for independent candidates whocant afford to compete with the billboards beingerected by well-heeled political slates.Some people might question the motive behind

a newspaper (which heartily accepts paid-forcampaign ads) in publishing an editorial calling forthe end of wood-n-cardboard election signs. andclever they are.the thing is, newspapers dont create road

hazards by blocking stop signs or views to othertraffic signals, as election signs often do. nor donewspapers create actual physical traffic hazards,like wood-framed signs can do, once theyreinevitably knocked down or blown over into thestreet.of course, there are other reasons why the signs

should go an important one being that theyrejust plain ugly, right?and is it not wearisome hearing the grumbling

and moaning, week after week, from candidatescomplaining about their signs being defaced,painted on, knocked over, trodden on, dismantled,re-arranged, ripped-up and otherwise badly used?Fact is, folks, if you dont want idiots mucking up

your signs, dont provide them with the canvass todo so. unfortunately, despite the best intentions ofcandidates to get known, election signs have alwaysbeen, and always will be, targets for idiots.theres got to be another way.hey, why not a newspaper ad? (Wink, wink).

Better politicians for Surrey trump political trifecta

Despite the best intentions ofcandidates to get known, electionsigns have always been, and alwayswill be, targets for idiots.


debate

other than the installation of ascreening device (to be used only atcertain times), i dont expect thereto be many changes to security at the b.C.legislature, even in the wake of last weeksterrible events on Parliament hill.and thats the way things should be.the murder of Cpl. nathan Cirillo while

he kept watch at the nationalWar Memorialwas unspeakably evil and tragic, and itunderstandably sent shock waves across thecountry.but the killing was the work of a drug

addict whose life had unraveled and wasspinning out of control. the tragedy was notthe result of state-sponsored terrorism or ajihad, but was instead an awful example of anindividual running amok.and so this horrible episode should not

be an excuse for curbing civil liberties,or encroaching on the freedom of thegeneral public. instead, it should compelgovernments to take more action when itcomes to fighting drug addiction or dealingwith mental health issues.thats not to say there isnt a need to re-

examine security levels, where appropriate.there appears to be little doubt the wholeepisode revealed some serious security flawson Parliament hill, but they dont exist in the

samemanner at the b.C. legislature.For example, the killer on Parliament hill

was able to run down a hallway that allowedaccess to the caucus rooms of two politicalparties, which potentially made him amenaceto the PrimeMinister.but at the b.C. legislature, the caucus offices

of bothmajor parties are inaccessible to thepublic. in fact, half of the main building isalready off-limits to the public, and so are bothannexes (one houses the government caucus,while the other is the premiers office).the back half of the building (which

includes the legislative chamber itself, as wellas the library and various cabinet and caucusoffices) is accessible only through an electronicpass card, which is issued only to staff andoccasionally to approved visitors.the front part of the building, where the

public is free to roam, also includes offices,but every one of them is behind a door thatis locked 24 hours a day.as well, there areat least several security guards in sight at alltimes, and a series of surveillance cameras keeptrack of everything happening outside, on thelegislature grounds.that screening device will be installed in the

basement, and the public will have to enter thebuilding after passing through this machine but likely only on days when the legislature issitting (a metal detector already exists for thosewanting to sit in the public gallery to watch alegislature sitting).in other words, not a lot of change to

security is likely needed, nor expected. thereis a review under way of existing securitymeasures, but hopefully it concludes that

the openness of thepeoples house takesprecedence over anymajor clampdown onfreedom of movement.but this focus on security reviews across

is somewhat misplaced. the Parliament hillshooter was addicted to crack cocaine, andhe actually committed a previous crime (arobbery) in order to be thrown in jail, wherehe thought he would have an opportunity tobe treated for his addiction.instead, he was released from jail after

just one day in custody. the fact he began toimmerse himself in radicalized islam is indeedpart of the narrative here, but only part of it.the shooter appears to have become

isolated, angry, frustrated and desperate. thisin no way excuses his monstrous crime, ofcourse, but it is foolish to think that simplyhiringmore security guards or installingmoresurveillance cameras is the proper way to dealwith someone in his situation.by all means, Canada has to be vigilant

to the reality of the modern world when itcomes to fighting terrorism. but we mustalso be more proactive when it comes topreventing drug addiction and treatingmental-health issues.if we dont, we may witness other shocking,

horrible events like last weeks tragedy inottawa. but they will have had nothing todo with terrorism, and everything to do withsociety turning a blind eye to the lingeringand growing problems of drug addiction andmental health.

Vote for one or twopeople, if you choose

The Editor,With the municipal elections just a

couple of weeks away, and the lists ofcandidates appearing in the local press,id like to point out, to those who do notknow, that voters can choose just one ortwo names on the slates (apart from thatfor mayor) and be quite legal, havingdone their duty.Many voters, seeing a request for nine

councillors (in Surrey), will feel obligated toput a cross beside nine names sometimesarbitrarily checking the first nine or the lastnine on the list, with variations in between.the fact that we can vote almost anywherein Surrey, and for days prior to nov. 15,makes voting easier. lets hope we get morepeople out to the polls.

Sheila Gair, Surrey

Cats kill songbirdsThe Editor,re: a new coalition comes together for

Surrey cats, the Now, oct. 21.i just read your article and i want

to point out a glaring omission in thearticle. i believe it is a fact that stray/feral cats and many domestic cats areresponsible for the loss of billions ofsongbirds throughout north americaover the past 30 or so years. if your articlementioned that fact, i believe you mightget through to many more owners whomay not know about this tragedy.im no cat lover or hater, just a concerned

person looking at the bigger picture.Richard McConchie,White Rock

Surrey Surrey mayoral candidatesmet for the citys first all-candidates meetingthursday night at SFus Surrey campus.Six of the seven candidates turned out to

answer questions, posed by the downtownSurrey bia and the audience. onlyindependent Vikram bajwa was absent.Surrey Firsts linda hepner said in her

opening statement that this election comesat a crucial crossroads for Surrey.i was appalled at the jokes that we used

to hear about Surrey, she said. it seems notlong ago. those were dark days.hepner referenced a Fraser institute

report that shows Surrey has the lowest taxesand lowest per-capita spending of 17 MetroVancouver municipalities.Former mayor McCallum with the Safe

Surrey Coalition spoke of the citys financialoutlook, saying he left the city with no debtand today it has much.independent mayoral candidate Grant

rice said the development community hasbacked municipal politicians over the yearsand the opportunity for individuals to rungrassroots campaigns are almost null.What im hoping to do is seize back the

city from the developers, he said.one Surrey leader barinder rasode said

she is committed to making tough decisions.rasode claims she has the only

comprehensive crime plan that can beimplemented immediately.independent John edwards said the city

needs police on the streets now, and notedchange at the council table is required.Why vote for the same people whove had

the opportunity to change the situation?he promised to focus on youth and

the mentally ill, and wants to establisha convention centre in Cloverdale tointernationalize Surrey.JohnWolanski, another independent

candidate, opened by speaking in favour of award system for the city and called for a newice rink and pool in Cloverdale.he spoke of the need to address social

issues, and likened walking down KingGeorge boulevard inWhalley to walkingaround a warzone in the Middle east.

hOWCANyOU pROMIsepOLICe QUICKLy?Candidates were asked how they would

quickly bring officers to Surrey, knowing ittakes up to 18 months to fill those spots.rice, who hasnt made such a

commitment, asked if rCMP was the rightmodel for a city of Surreys size. he notedthe regions many police detachments, andsuggested a regional model may work better.rasode said her plan can be put into play

right away, involving community safety

officers that can be trained quickly.edwards said the city cant wait years for

more police and suggested bringing backretired officers to speed up the process.Wolanski said the rCMP doesnt

have a board of directors. Wehave a group of people thatanswers to ottawa, he said,noting the confidence indeltas police detachmentand it being a localizedoperation.hepner promises to bring

on new officers in the shortesttime possible, and said someofficers can be transferred, instead of all thenew officers being new recruits. She alsonoted the 20 community safety officers thecity hired.McCallum said hes talked to the chief of

police and has been told the contract withthe rCMP allows the city to have requestedofficers on the ground within 12 months.

CITy CeNTRe GROWThrasode said she would continue to

support growth in City Centre, but saidshe hears the tower projects will be stalledunless the city gets a grip on public safety.Shes been told the tower owners pay highprices for additional security, and said theplan should move forward but the cityshould do a better job.edwards is impressed with the

development in the area but is concernedabout the level of homelessness and drugsand addicts in the area. he wants a safeinjection site and to get people off thestreets.Why cant we develop social housing in

that area? he asked, adding longtime streetpeople are being pushed out, ending up innewton or elsewhere. Were not solving theproblem.Wolanski said hed like to see lower towers

in the area, noting tall ones block out thesun and create a cold environment.hepner said City Centre used to look

like a strip mall and wants to continue withthe momentum toward building a regionalurban centre.McCallum claimed hes been told many

projects in the area are on hold becausedevelopers are in competition with SCdC.

rice noted the area past 104th avenue isneglected. it makes me shudder tothink how we botched this.... itsgreat doing these beautiful towers,but what are we going to do aboutthe people living here now?

TRANspORTATIONCandidates all spoke of the

need for better transit.hepner said if shes elected, she

promises to have phase one of a light-railsystem implemented by 2018 connectingGuildford, City Centre and newton.rasode, also an lrt supporter, noted the

importance of connecting town centres inSurrey.asked how he would ensure Surrey gets

its fair share of infrastructure funding fromhigher levels of government,Wolanski alsoin favour of a light rail system said transit

funding should go where the population isand where population is most able to use it.McCallum spoke of the importance of

bringing new uses particularly communitybuses to Surrey. he also said the citys roadsare disintegrating and need to be dealt with.rice, a regular Skytrain rider himself, is

not against that method of transit. he notedthe challenges of trying to get aroundSurrey by bus, particularly in theevening.We need more busesnow,he said.

pURpOse-BUILTsheLTeRthe City of Surrey has

yet to find a location for apurpose-built shelter. landmust be found and zoned as soonas possible to ensure Surrey receives theprovincial funding.asked how she would ensure Surrey gets

that funding, rasode acknowledged the cityhas been strugglingwith where it will go.She said it needs to be absorbed into

the community without having a negativeimpact on businesses.hepner believes the city is in a good spot to

find a shelter location.Weve already determined a couple of

sites close to the hospital precinct that wouldbe available....Moving forward on one orthe other of those is really, i think, where theanswer lies.

NORTh sURRey ReCCeNTReall of the candidates were asked what they

would do with the north Surrey rec centreand where they would relocate it to.Wolanski said theres land to the north that

could be utilized, but was worried of issuessurrounding gentrification and the needto be careful of how people are pushed outwithout adequate housing stock.edwards said he would consult with the

community to determine what to do with thefacility, and also emphasized the importance

of investing in recreational programmingin youth.he was also concerned aboutgentrification in the area.hepner said that project is next on the

list in terms of building the city, adding shewants to find a new location.She said its an important site in terms of

the citys development around the nucleusof the town centre. hepner said she will lookfor a new site in partnership with SFu.

McCallum said if elected, hewill look at the citys parks andrecreation capital plan, whichhe believes has been neglected.he thinks the facility shouldbe located and should stay inthe north areas of the city.rice doesnt believe its

ready to be torn down, butacknowledged a location should

be found.he believes there were toomany cuts duringMcCallums reign.rasode noted the importance of sports and

recreation in keeping youth on a good pathand said increased opportunities for affordablerecreation iscrucial.She said north Surrey isnumber one on the priority list.

AFFORdABLehOUsINGthe candidates were all asked questions

about affordable housing.hepner said she supports affordable

housing through SCdC, through thehomelessness and housing fund, as well asthrough partnersips in the community.McCallum said he would put encourage

affordable housing in new developments.rice would like to see developments

include affordable housing components,particularly inWhalley.rasode said more rental stock is needed

and would encourage rental units, and rent-to-own opportunities. She also wants the cityto hold absentee landlords to account.John edwards was in favour of mandatory

inclusionary zoning andWolanski called forthe federal and provincial governments tostop downloading to cities on this front.

north delta thirteen electoralhopefuls tried their luck at appealing tovoters in north delta tuesday evening,discussing a variety of issues fromtransportation to marijuana grow-ops.the first divisive topic of the

evening was the MK deltalands proposal to build 1,100residential units of townhomes and apartments athighway 91 and 72nd avenue.Some were adamant there can beno building on what they believeis part of the environmentally-sensitivelagg of burns bog.incumbent Coun. Sylvia bishop said

if it were not for the man-made highwayseparating the land from the contiguousmass of burns bog, it would be part of theecological conservancy today.Many others agreed. lori Mayhew said

delta needs to work with the burns bogConservation Society to protect the landfrom development. Jennifer thoss was even

more direct: this is an easy question. no.nicholas Wong, the youngest candidate

on the ticket at 24 years of age, said hisenvironmental convictions are strong andwould be opposed to building density onany green space in delta. incumbent Coun.Jeannie Kanakos cited the different iterationsof the project indicating the public isnt

interested in development there.What youre looking at is asignificant project that seemsto be moving in the wrongdirection, she said.others had more practical

reasons for their opposition.ron Calliou said no to

development, citing an increasein traffic and accidents.

Just because you can, doesnt mean younecessarily should, he said.Johann ackermann, meanwhile, said

building on the bog could be riskybecause if anything goes wrong thendelta will be on the hook for approvingthe development, echoing similarcriticisms made about building theSouthlands development on a floodplain intsawwassen.Some candidates, like incumbent Coun.

ian Paton, were more neutral in theirstance, saying theyll wait until the proposalcomes before council before jumping to adecision.incumbent Coun. bruce Mcdonald

said the developer has the legal right tocome before council despite the difficultythey might have getting it through. Fellowincumbent Coun. robert Campbellpointed out that the proposal has changedsignificantly since 2013 and developers havethe right to follow through.youve got to put yourself in their

shoes, he said. youd want your chance toappear before council.rod binder said MK delta lands already

have the right to certain land uses thatmight be worse than what the developersare proposing, adding the project haschanged based on public feedback. thisappears to be a land owner that listens, hesaid, citing the challenge of finding housingin north delta.Peter Mattoo said he doesnt want to see

the bog increase in size, adding that just as

people wouldnt want housing encroachingon the bog, the bog should not encroach onhousing.there are few, if any, areas left in north

delta to develop, he said. if elected, hewould carefully review whats beingproposed and look at the pros and cons.heather King had perhaps the most

interesting idea of all. She said peoplein delta will always be worried when adeveloper owns environmentally sensitiveland.She proposed a land swap between MK

delta lands and the municipality thatwould allow the developer to acquirePaterson Park in delta.another topic that generated a great deal

of discussion was housing for seniors andthose on fixed incomes.tsawwassen resident Peter Van der

Velden filed his papers to run for councilbut announced on oct. 17 he waswithdrawing from the race.there is another all-candidates meeting

in north delta on Saturday, nov. 1 startingat 2 p.m. at north delta evangelical FreeChurch, 11300 84th ave. the meeting ishosted by delta residents association.

CoQuitlaMnorthSurrey Spartan nathantadesse crossed thefinish line eight secondsbefore anyone else at the2014 Fraser Valley XCChampionships to win thegold medal and go into theprovincial championshipswith a target on his back.the Grade 12 student

finished the 6.3-kilometrerace with a time of21:11.05, moving up 15spots from last years race.tadesse said even though

he had a gap crossing thefinish line, he didnt do anyshoulder checks.i didnt really want to

look back, he said. youknow when there are nofootsteps behind you,theres no breathing behindyou, you can tell you have apretty good lead.the Fraser Valley

Champion believes hecan win the provincialchampionship, which takesplace on Saturday (nov. 1)in Victoria.there are some pretty

good runners (from theFraser Valley) that shouldplace top five. on theisland, im not sure aboutthe runners there, buti think i have a prettygood chance to win, saidtadesse.Scott Svelander, north

Surreys cross-countrycoach, said the key reasonfor the better runs this year

is because tadesse sufferedfrom low iron levels.hes really, really

stepped it up a lot thisyear, the coach said. hewas running anaemic mostof last year. he didnt haveas good of a season as heliked.however, due to the

late start of the schoolyear, tadesse went to theStanford XC invitationalwhere he ran against 2,000

of the best cross-countryrunners in the u.S in lateSeptember.he finished in second

place, a second behind thewinner.tadesse, who also runs

middle-distance track, hasbeen attracting the attentionof universities south of theborder such asWashingtonState, university of Portlandand northern arizona State.in the senior girls division,

Semiahmoo Secondarystrack team won anothercross-country title.Chelsea ribeiro finished

second with a time of17:33.77, eight secondsbehind addy townsend ofdr. Charles best Secondaryin the 4.7-kilometre race.the totems had six

members of their team finishin the top 30 and won theteam banner by 10 points.Scott yewchuk,

Semiahmoos coach, saidhe was proud of the girlsperformance after two oftheir stronger runners weremissing due to injury.JessicaWilliams and

dominika Paige were unableto run due to injuries froma car accident and anothersports injury, respectively.because they werent

able to run the course,both girls wont be able toparticipate in the provincial

championships.Seven Semi runners

qualified for this weekendsprovincials, and yewchuksaid their run in the FraserValleys helps them forVictoria.they were gritty and

tough like we need them tobe, he said.(Mundy Parkis) a tough course, probablythe hardest course thattheyve run, but they kind ofpulled through.yewchuck added this team

has never lost a race theyveentered, despite havingseveral junior girls on theteam.For more information

Sciences and SurreyFirefighters CharitableSociety are presenters of thetalk, called bullying andViolence:What does race andgender have to do with it?Jo-anne lee, professor

of Womens Studies at theuniversity of Victoria, willdeliver the talk from 6 to

7:30 p.m. in Surrey Cityhalls council chambers.it is very important to

recognize and acknowledgeracialized and genderedviolence, as failure to do sodirects much-needed publicattention and resources awayfrommaking gender-based,anti-violence programsavailable in the community,stated lee.according to lee,

intersectional studies informus that sexism and violence isalmost always underwrittenby race, racism and racialviolence.but when racialand gender factors are

overlooked, we shift towardsthe creation of neutral,school-based anti-bullyingprograms, lee stated.Such universal programs

will undoubtedly servesome, but will continue tofail the most vulnerable,including girls fromminority communitieswho increasingly constitutethe growing multiculturaland indigenous studentpopulation in urbanschools.For event details, visit Sfu.

SurreyMayoralhopeful linda hepner saysis shes elected, residents willbe riding light rail here inSurrey in 2018.We chose light rail

for a number of reasons,including lower costs andfaster start up time. now, itstime to get to work, becausekeeping our city moving isa big priority for our SurreyFirst team,hepner said.She said its unacceptable

Surrey residents pay roughly$144 million to translinkeach year, but the cityhas not seenexpansion inrail rapid transitin the past twodecades.hepner

promises to havephase one ofa Surrey lrtsystem up andrunning by2018 and says,if necessary, shell commitland and put revenues fromdevelopment along theroute toward paying for thesystem.the ground-level system,

when complete, will have 27kilometres of track with upto 20 stops.Phase one would include

10 kilometres of trackconnecting City Centreto Guildford along 104thavenue in 10 minutes, andconnecting City Centre tonewton via King Georgeboulevard in 15 minutes.hepner said the line will

be within walking distancefor some 20,000 residents.the Mayors Councils

regional transportationPlan identifies Surreys lrtas a top priority. however,it is dependent on the2015 Metro Vancouver

transportation referendumpassing.We need a yes for that,

hepner noted.but if its voted down, her

plan b is to apply to thenew building Canada Fund,a $14-billion infrastructureprogrammeant to financeprograms of national andregional significance.the city could also

provide land for the line, sheadded.anytime youre close to

transportation, that landbecomes more valuable, shesaid, noting the city woulduse the resulting uplift indevelopment revenues tohelp pay for the line.

Surrey Firstalso plans tobring in theprivate sectorto help financethe project, likewhat was done inWaterloos andedmontons lightrail programs.i am

absolutelyconfident that there are anumber of organizationsthat would jump at thechance to partner with thisproject.Without disclosing awhole lot, ive actually talkedwith one,hepner said.Phase two of the line is

a 17-kilometre expansionalong Fraser highway tolangley, which hepnercommits to having completewithin five years of phaseone being finished. the linewill be complemented byfast bus service toWhiterock, hepner noted.all in all, the system is

expected to cost upwards of$2 billion.Were prepared to think

outside of the box on thisproject, particularly whenit comes to funding, saidhepner. our citizens havetold us loud and clear that

transit, transportation andeasing congestion on ourroads are all importantpriorities to our citys future.People want to get aroundtheir city, so were preparedto make sure this project getsthe green light right away.

but can it truly be up andrunning by 2018?hepner believes it can,

noting much of the designwork has already been done.the system would

complement the citystraffic Management

Centre, hepner said. byyears end the city will have250 intersection cameras,through which lights andsignals can be adjustedin real-time to relievecongestion on city [email protected]
